if he practiced a PL-compliant squat (less depth, no pause) for a couple of months i bet he could squat 600+. he couldn't do that tomorrow but he could if he decided to go for it.

so the AM jumps didn't happen. thursday morning i woke to pouring rain and a headache. this morning i woke having not yet packed for the wedding i'm going to this weekend. but the sprints with t0ddday did happen last night.
WEIGHT: 175 in shoes and t-shirt
SORENESS: none
ACHES/INJURIES: right toe after the workout
MENTAL STATE: good
- warm up
- sprint ~20m x 3; sprint ~50m x 5
racing t0ddday. on the longer sprints i got a handicap. he beat me until we moved the handicap out to 11-12m. that puts him about 1s faster, which makes sense.
- intensive tempo 200m x 4 (100m recovery)
30s each. failed on the last rep. these were hard.
- some random natural GHRs, pull ups and ab stuff, including a fun new ab exercise that i will be doing from now on.
- shoot around, some SLRVJ and DLRVJ and SVJ.
soooooo bad, best DLRVJ was 30. time to get a-practicin'. i know, i know.
great workout, so much more fun to do it with a partner. i'm sure i was faster than normal, too. the 200m intervals were humbling.

Progress Journals & Experimental Routines / Re: chasing athleticism
« on: October 10, 2013, 09:49:40 am »Because legs have to support that extra bodyweight. Athletically/relatively speaking it's worse, but for the purposes of getting stronger, it's better to be a 200kg fatty squatting 200kg than a lean 100kg one, because the 200kg fatty's legs are moving 200kg bw + 200kg bw.
Put another way, if I squat 140kg @ 90kg, then drop 3kg of bodyfat, i can now squat 143kg @ 87kg by maintaining the same load on my legs. But if i'm only squatting 140kg @ 87kg, then i've gotten weaker than I was at 90kg.
Nah that logic doesn't work out. Imagine how much more potential the guy at 100kg has. If the 100kg dude bulked up to 150kg and the 200kg fatty lost 50kg down to 150 the lean 100kg dude would be miles stronger than the fatty. Same as the guy squatting the same absolute weight at a lighter bodyweight is stronger than the heavier guy lifting the same absolute weight.
MUTUMBO! DO NOT ENGAGE WITH THE DERANGED INTERNET WANKING! IT IS DANGEROUS FOR YOUR HEALTH!

« on: October 09, 2013, 11:52:26 am »One thing i've recently been doing when my knees feel wonky is doing a compression around the muscles near the knee. I just wrap some rubber bands fairly tight around my calves and hams/quads for about 1 min, do a bit of a stretch to fill the area with blood, then move my way down the leg. Makes my knees feel good. Something to try perhaps, it's pretty amazing how good it feels in an instant. People use rubber tubing from bicycle tyres, i just use my bands.
huh, cool.
replacement for voodoo from supple leopard
yeah exactly.

WEIGHT: 174
SORENESS: none
ACHES/INJURIES: head, kind of badly at points, neck a little, low back a little
MENTAL STATE: annoyed at my headache, otherwise fine
- warm up
ow ow ow ow ow
- paused squat 275 x 2,2,2
easy, very deep.
- DL 185 x 10,10
easy but new, may feel this tomorrow
- OHP 95 x 5,5
- pull ups x 5,5,5
- hanging leg raise x 10,10,10
very easy workout just to try to avoid major DOMs and CNS drain, and to avoid making my headache even worse. this was not fun but it was good to get through it.
