hope you get that run in! some solid progress/sessions lately.

it's been hard for me to get to sleep early lately too .. cutting out those 2x/day sessions seems to be the culprit. Had lots of incentive to wakeup early and get some light running in.. now without it, just staying up late computering. Need to fix it somewhat, asap. :uhhhfacepalm:

didn't journal the last few days because, mostly just race results & a TON of eating afterwards.. ate healthy, but alot. healthy pizza, lentils, 2 x chicken sandwich, almond milk, coconut water, green/black tea etc.

was so heavy this morning that it was surprising (143), but within an hour I was 139 (even after drinking fluids), just shed a ton of extra water I was holding.

also i'm really annoyed .. feel like i'm scared to push my speed .. reminiscent of trying to hit 11' when verting .. making me angry and more aggressive.



12/04/2017

bw = 143 (139 an hour or so later)
bw before bed last night = 146
soreness = quads slightly (left moderate), hamstrings slightly (left moderate)
aches/injuries = none
cramping = none
morning quad flexibility = loose
morning hamstring flexibility = loose
morning calf flexibility = loose
feel = good

wakeup = 7 AM

log:
07:15 AM: food: 2 x almond milk, water
12:30 PM: food: bagel joint: sausage egg and cheese on pumpernickel, chocolate muffin, orange juice
01:00 PM: food: whole foods: berry smoothie, mac & cheese, orange chicken
- ate dirty as fuck, felt like crap afterwards
03:00 PM: nap: 2.5 hours
05:30 PM: food: tall glass of coconut water
- bloated me up
- going to decrease coconut water intake as well
- more water .. pure, f'n, water.
08:00 PM: workout: better numbers than saturday's race - lol: 5:11 mixed effort mile (moderate into hard), 3:04 mixed effort km (hard into moderate into hard). FASTEST MILE & 1KM BY MYSELF (nice). also used my lap key to break each effort into stages, will analyze later...
10:00 PM: food: 2 x almond milk, tons of water, basically a half a loaf of sourdough rye (so ridiculous, couldn't stop eating it.. got it today, so fresh & crunchy).

- also hit some ~15s 100's and some ~500m @ < 4:30 min/mi etc.
- but need to stop caring as much about all that stuff, and just keep trying to get PR's

left quad/ham sore.

just need to stop being "afraid" of running fast. I can run kinda fast. I just need to man the F up. then i'll run alot faster :D









pretty solid.

simple explanation: your arms have mass. holding them in front of yourself shifts your center of gravity forward, which makes it easier to balance as you squat. the more mobile your hips and ankles, the easier it is to squat without sitting back.

I can also do the same thing with my arms crossed with each hand touching the opposite shoulder. But with each hand above my shoulder just makes it awkward.

it's mobility + COM (like LBSS) said.. to maintain your COM, body shifts into positions where mobility becomes an issue.

you can try and "feel" what's tight in those positions, and then try and loosen them up & try again, and see if there's any improvement.. ie, if soleus/gastrocs feel tight when descending, static stretching + mobility can improve subsequent attempts etc.

but ya, it's a combo of things going on.

for me, i can stretch my soleus/gastrocs like crazy, then hit some nicer "deep squat" reps.

Classic Muhammad Ali vs Chuck Wepner

Ali get's knocked down and comes back harder and just unleashes hell on this guy lol.

<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f_c2c5AgdbI" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f_c2c5AgdbI</a>

great clip, and ya Ali unleashed hell on him that was nuts. I just hate how Ali absorbed punishment, so brutal to watch considering we know how it turned out for him. Just lying against the ropes getting pummeled, even if it was through his gloves, it still rattles the brain. I hate rope-a-dope.

also incredible how differently people respond to head trauma, Wepner looks really sharp in his older age, narrating the clip.

thankd Adarq, i read the whole thing :)

This got my attention:

Not a  rec coaches, or even some of the weak high school coaches...

now i guess i need to find someone qualify for a short session just to get us in the right direction avoiding common false.

Thanks again for taking ur time to reply. both adarq and LBSS.

nice! np!

and yes, when trying to teach kids the right thing when it comes to the technical side of things, qualified/skilled/experienced coaches are essential.

My favorite conversion , once again:
2:05 marathon = 420 consecutive no rest 100m runs, 17.85 seconds each.

:motherofgod: :motherofgod: :motherofgod:

yup.. it's absolutely incredible.

and the improvement of Moen is incredible. If you get bored, wonder what his 100m's improved to, going from 2:12:47 to 2:05:48 :D :ninja: :highfive: :ibrunning:



I was putting it into perspective for my Aunt yesterday .. I was telling her that the guy who won yesterday's 1 mile race @ 4:33, well, the best marathoner in the world (Kipchoge) runs 26.2 miles at basically that pace (4:35) (2:00:32 for breaking2).

she wuz like. wot.

Parker Stinson on his "meltdown":



Quote
Believe in yourself even when no one else does. ▪️▪️▪️▪️▪️▪️▪️▪️▪️▪️▪️▪️▪️▪️▪️▪️▪️
Today I tested my limits in my marathon debut. Today I found out my limits were 22 miles at 2:09:55 pace before some severe abdominal cramps and a right calve strain had me walking to the finish line. Next time I'm hoping to make it farther as there are no awards handed out to people for winning 90% of a race. However, I stand by what I said before the race...and I wouldn't change a thing. #YOLO

171201 W10 Max effort Jump Session before weekend
Simply said, all fail.  BW as low as 173lbs
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=atZoGRyX8qk
Coach suggest me to use a better ball with less bounce.  (i got this rubber ball with more bounce since it was suggested by a few other dunker on fb.... now i am suppose to use less bouncy ball?)
<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=atZoGRyX8qk" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=atZoGRyX8qk</a>

171203 W10 Weight Session at Sunday Morning

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jSGMyvBonUs

I want to squeeze in a session in my busy Sunday
Alarm clock at 730
Body woke at 630
Gym open at 8
Arrive 805 and it is all empty.
Working slow with no pressure.. sept 1.25 hrs at the rack..  Stretch and Steam room..
<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jSGMyvBonUs" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jSGMyvBonUs</a>

Using Barbell to do calf raise is new to me.. .so dam hard to balance.. lucky coach tell me to use lighter weight..

My heel have to touch the floor to make it work.. when i set it too high.. i just fall all over the place.
After 1 weekend of normal eating with family... well not very normal.. i ate extra with BBQ buffet and stuff.
BW back to 180.2 lbs (Measured Monday morning after woke up)

a more bouncy ball means you have more control, if you don't want a crazy bouncy ball to bounce as high, you just lob it lower.. not sure why anyone would suggest a less bouncy ball, unless they were talking about dribbling up dunks & trying to palm it.. flatter ball = easier to palm.

i'd stick with the bouncier ball personally.

alot of those from 2:51 and onward were GREAT, extremely aggressive.. keep approaching them like that. those will drop soon, surprised a few didn't go down in that session. :ibjumping:
