Felt good. Humid af, drench after 2 mile warmup .. hah. Feels good to sweat like that tho.







workout: bw
- felt very strong, which is great because on the car ride home from track, could barely lift my right shoulder.. was worried it could be injured. just overuse with the soreness/fatigue etc.

S1: dead hang ng pullups: BW x 11
S1: full dips: BW x 12
S1: standing single leg abductions: x 20
S1: forward walking lunges, (10sec pause at the bottom): BW x 5 each
S1: calf raises (neutral): BW x 50

S2: dead hang chinups: BW x 9
S2: full pushups: BW x 25
S3: standing single leg abductions: x 20
S2: forward walking lunges, (10sec pause at the bottom): BW x 5 each
S2: calf raises (wide): BW x 50

S3: dead hang wide grip pullups: BW x 7
S3: full dips, split stance for glutes: BW x 11
S3: forward walking lunges, (10sec pause at the bottom): BW x 10 each
S3: calf raises (close): BW x 50

S4: fast ng pullups + dead hang: BW x 8 + 3 = 11
S4: full dips: BW x 12
S4: forward walking lunges, (10sec pause at the bottom): BW x 10 each

nice.

glutes/quads really felt it on those paused BW lunges. good stuff.




runlikeagirl update: she hit 2 5:58 miles but, took a quick break after the first, so not technically 2 miles under 12. then tied her 400/200 efforts of last week, after much more work. nice.

humid af.. we were both drenched after the warmup.. hah.

another track girl (masters sprinter, 100m/200m/400m) loved our workout/intensity and asked when we come etc, wants to tag along next Thursday .. she said she's ~62-63s for 400m @ ~47 or so IIRC? I forget. She was just getting back into shape.. she wanted to do 8 x 150m with full recovery but only got 3, so definitely fitness issues.. i'm like, why didn't you just finish with 5 tempo nice and relaxed? she agreed, derp. lul.







going to sleep later than i intended................. but my nose is stuffed to fuck. going to be hard getting to sleep i think.

ok trying :/

also.. can't believe MIA got WADE back.

that's awesome and weird.

Holy sheet!

I did not see that coming.

CLE out- Wade, Thomas, Crowder, Frye, Rose, Shumpert

CLE in- 2nd Rd DP, Hood, Hill, Clarkson, Nance Jr,

I wonder how many of these guys had any idea or it's just a case of "the tribe has spoken"

the Tribe aka Lebron ... eek. definitely the latter.

insane.

posted this on FB:

Hmm.. Just ordered this. Whether it was jumping, running, boxing, lifting, or octet warfare -> I often end up focusing on mental components. This seems like my kind of book :D

"""
A suitably versatile definition that I like, borrowing from researcher Samuele Marcora, is that endurance is “the struggle to continue against a mounting desire to stop.” That’s actually Marcora’s description of “effort” rather than endurance, but it captures both the physical and mental aspects of endurance. What’s crucial is the need to override what your instincts are telling you to do (slow down, back off, give up) and the sense of elapsed time. Taking a punch without flinching requires self-control, but endurance implies something more sustained: holding your finger in the flame long enough to feel the heat; filling the unforgiving minute with 60 seconds’ worth of distance run.
"""

Also, regardless of whether or not you are a Malcolm Gladwell fan, he wrote the Foreword, and he's also surprisingly fast: 4:54 mile @ 51 years old in 2014.🏃‍♂️/tangent.

Football / Re: 2017-2018 NFL Season

OMG What a game, my first and best super bowl I have witnessed.
That interception changed the game towards the end when ball fumbled out of tom brady.

I didn't understand why the runner touchdown was questionable he ran and did touch down and the other time when the guy ran through the zone and they said ball was out of control and his leg was out so confusing I saw he had ball in hand and was in the end zone.

but omg what a game I was nervous when they were making the decision and the patriots know how to take advantage of time especially towards the end and that final throw could have caused it to over time but saw it was time up and so happy.

memorable moment nick foles played the same game as brady and did touch down.

just awesome

amazing game.

Ajayi is from the UK too :D

http://miami.cbslocal.com/2018/02/04/jay-ajayi-from-north-london-to-super-bowl-lii/

Ye I saw that when they showed his stats and he was from as well as when they interviewed him. Great guy. From hackney, but media from outside the UK would say from london, east london, doesn't really say specifically which town.

I would like to try american football.

nah.. don't. heh. dangerous as fu*k. :/

tag football is fun tho.. still kind of injury risky for the knees/ankles but, 100000x safer than tackle.

my 2 cents :D

True. I will prob do it towards the end of my career jk  :P
So athletics, basketball/boxing then nfl.

end of career NFL sounds like an even worse idea.......... :D

i'd rather box than do nfl. nfl is no joke. brain/spinal/knee death. :/ so brutal.
