he's a short dude too.. his single leg seems "better for distance" than for vert, from what i've seen .. seems like he's got alot of "long jump" potential.

5 sets of 10 x 120 kg? wow  :ibsquatting:  :highfive:

10 x 5 afaik.. hah. maxent is so "different" with his sets/reps sometimes that you feel like you're reading it backwards.

5 sets of 10 x 120 kg? wow  :ibsquatting:  :highfive:

I read it differently:

10 sets of 5x120kg.

Regardless props on the  :personal-record:

Today is chest and tris

Cardio idk some wod

I wore my hr monitor while I slept one night and at some point it flipped so the sensors weren't on me but it claimed like 750-800 calories burned for 7hrs of sleep and my Avg heart rate was 43 or something.

haha awesome.

i've never done that.. i'd be more excited to try it if i had wrist-based HR monitoring on my watch.

800m+ Running and/or Conditioning / Re: Runners to learn from
« on: September 05, 2017, 12:26:52 pm »
some dude i've raced against etc.. he's fast. 40+ runner, seems to always win the "masters division" or whatever, but also wins the overall sometimes. He's still knocking out sub 5 mile races, 16:XX 5K's etc. I follow him on strava and i'm not sure how he busts out such impressive 5k's without much speed training. He's got a ton of experience so i'm sure that also helps.

https://www.athlinks.com/athletes/50969959/results

he got crazy fast since 2008, very impressive.

in my fast races, he always blows past me around ~1.5-2 miles in, lmfao.

he blogs some stuff too: http://www.runsouthflorida.com/good-timing-by-spencer-d-west/

Got the "mallet" finger checked today. Not have a much nicer splint but have been warned off any barbell work for the next 8-12 weeks  :'(

Im thinking stretching, running and a nice weight cut might be the way to go. GIve me a good place to rebound from once I'm allowed back into it. Also, a dedicated 8-12 should be enough for front splits and a good tilt at side splits too.  I have been told I can do some light machine type work as long as I don't have to close the hand around the handle given the force applied through all fingers even if I'm gripping with only a few.

Edit- weight cut = current weight of 93 to sub 88.

damn 8-12 weeks :/

nice though - could get alot of this other stuff done in 8-12 weeks. Could do a serious "scoobychau weight cut" while getting some good miles in running .. as far as running goes, hands should always be relaxed, so hopefully there's no problems there. Just need to start out really light at first, see i the finger can handle it.

You might look like "Van Damme" in 8-12 weeks.



Damn back pain. No running this morning.

Amazing how much back pain is due to hip flexors for me. Back seized up during the night. Settled down after some stretching but not good enough to go training on it. Might hit up some yoga tonight instead.

How much time do you have? If it's ~60 minutes or so, could get in a nice walk when you feel like that. It would probably help with the back + recovery too.

My back can get a little janky after jump rope, sometimes. Have to be a bit more cautious when I lean over etc, left lower back can "twinge" sometimes. About to go walk, it'll probably feel great after. A few hours of postural control + blood flow and such, always has me feeling alot better.



^^^ Well I fucked up that multi-quote haha

fixed. :D

Haha thx mate.

quick review:

https://runrepeat.com/asics-piranha

that piranha looks pretty good.. 3.9 oz fast shoe. the fact that you want to train AND race in them, makes that weight seem reasonable. You don't put in huge volume in your sprint training sessions so I don't think these would be a problem.

the only thing I don't like about them right off the bat, is the 4mm heel/toe drop. It's not huge, very small in fact, but definitely noticeable to someone like me who prefers 0 drop (or negative drop) for running/sprinting shoes.





i couldn't find anything on sportsshoes, lots of nice spikes but nothing spikeless for sprinting :/

couldn't find anything on runningwarehouse either, bleh!

http://www.runningwarehouse.eu/searchshoe.html?cat_filter=MRSROARACSH&type=men#cat_filter=MRSROARACSH&type=men&search=args&filter_pron=RMSNEU&minprice=&maxprice=&filter_type=null&opt_page=1&opt_sort=alphaAtoZ&opt_perpage=20

everything is for 5k+, bulky heel etc.


seems like the asics piranha is the best find so far.. I wish they had my saucony shay xc4's on one of these sites, i'd recommend that. 0 drop & has a bit more support, coming in at ~4.4 oz.



anyone else have any links, specifically with spikeless flats in the UK?

Morning BW: N/A

Workout

Jog to track ~.85mi

Warmup sprints
1 x ~10m
1 x ~15m
1 x ~20m

Jumping
~10 SVJs and ~5 RVJs [LR plant] at hoop. Able to get about full wrist to the backboard with an RJV and to bottom of fingers on SJV

Sprints
4 x ~60m with walk back recovery [don't know my track markings well enough to measure this, but it was like 80 normal steps]

Jog home ~.85mi

Notes

Over-ate on this trip, but ate nice stuff so i feel fine about it. Rather, I ate more like I ate pre-cutting, which feels like so much food now, crumbs. Ate more moderately today, but had a heavy meal about 2 hours pre-track, so I could really feel that sitting my stomach while moving.

This felt really nice. Jumping and sprinting is fun. Will be fun to have progress here as I just get better at the movements and get lighter/leaner.

Should probably keep sprints maybe to 40m, not sure I've the endurance or max speed to make 60m necessary, the last bit already feels like it is being spent slowing down.

I think my hip adductors and flexors may be sore tomorrow.

awesome!

IMHO, just in case: don't go 100% max V on short sprints .. maybe toy with that once in a while after a few months of training, but for now just keep it in the <= 90% range. As you already mentioned to me, you're probably sore af already. Ease into it nice and slow. my 2 cents!

peace!

Going to try a new style of progress tracker: monthly, embedded into my journal posts. Obviously this should be something fancy/amazing by now but, will make do with this. Also, going to go "across" rather than down, so it all fits into one small block.

TBH, I really like this so far.. even though I only have a few data points thus far. :D
