bad news: calves toast

good news: it's mostly gastroc not soleus, which is rare for me, and left plantar fasciae feels like it's healed up even more.

bw = 162 lb.
- lots of fluids
soreness = right hamstring very slightly
aches/injuries = left sole (plantar fasciae) of foot barely

PF in left foot was good enough to run, but after track workout, definitely feeling it.

track work:
- spikes: MD800v3
- max hr: 188 bpm
- trained with someone I know. held back to the pace he wanted to go. workout was still really tough though, especially with the heat.
- hard 200m at the end .. not max but still hard & happy about it. watch said 31s, garmin says 32.1s. :ninja:
- head index 100 F







went to do jumps after but calves were just too wrecked..



went to whole foods & guzzled down 1 x beet juice & 2 x grapefruit juices .. grape fruit juice was heaven.


man I love running on a track.

FAU's main campus is pretty nice.

Nice. Loving the 400 workouts  :)

nice thanks! ya I need to handle them alot better though. I need easily repeatable sub 1:15's for 12 sets or so.. lots of work to do :D

You think the longer rest intervals are good for building anaerobic endurance?

well, they are better than nothing that's for sure. so they definitely still improve anaerobic endurance, because when it comes down to it, you still have to run another brutal 400 & if you still have acid that hasn't been cleared and/or you've just got fatigue everywhere, you're going to adapt. Longer rest intervals are good for playing with faster paces it seems; more than physical recovery you also need that mental recovery. Today I didn't push the pace  much though since I was holding back.

My goal is to use shorter rest intervals.. right now i'm in the 3-4 minute range (today was 300m walking rest). So, i'm just progressing towards 100m walking rest or 60s standing rest. I could probably achieve that if I slowed down my pace a bit, but, one of my goals is to get most every interval under 5 min/mi pace.

so 3-4 minute rest intervals are not ideal IMHO, ~60s is much more effective.. but 3-4 minutes in combination with a hard 400m is a good starting point for sure. Say you hit 8 x 400m @ 80s per 400m with 400m walking rest, well the next logical progression is 300m walking rest, 200m walking rest, and 100m walking rest. If those rest time is reduced and one is able to maintain pace on those intervals, that's a great indicator of improved recovery time, which implies considerable improvements to anaerobic endurance. Improved recovery time implies more enzymes to remove LA etc.

What are your 400/200/100/40 times like?

dno about 40 times.

100m: the other day I hit ~13s or so from a standing start, when I was dead .. so 100m definitely in the 12's. No idea if I could get under 12s.
200m: hit ~32s today at the end of a tough workout with dead legs again .. pretty sure I can hit sub 30s
400m: best recorded 400m time is 63s.
800m: best recorded 800m time is 2:21

I don't care about my 5k time as much anymore (but i'd still like to do good in some races), so i'm really looking to push those times down for 200m, 400m, 800m, and 1 mile.

I have lots of different goal workouts I need to hit to get there, including high volume ones & low volume ones. For example:

high volume: for work capacity
- 12 x 400m
- 6 x 800m
- 20 x 200m

low volume: focus on intensity
- 4 x 400m
- 2 x 800m
- 1200m, 400m
- 8 x 200m

peace!

calves wrecked!!!

negative drop on spikes hit them hard.

had a good session in teh spikes, I like em`. Didn't notice much for the most part, BUT, when turning it up & finishing with a strong kick etc, I definitely noticed them.. plus running through puddles was nice too, didn't worry one bit.

middle distance spikes = success

I like those pogo jumps, I can get high with them too. But since it's a plyometric exercise, it does pain my shins because I don't have the strength requirements, which I heard was that you had to squat 1.5 x bw to be able to qualify to do plyometrics safely.

just do them submax most of the time & occasionally do them near-max/hard to test it out, you'll be fine. don't need 1.5xBW squat strength, that's some BS :D

But it's really fun to do these as well, maybe it's the kenyan blood in me.  :ninja:

important statement ^^ :) if they are fun to do and they feel good, do them.. probably.  :ninja: but like you said you feel it in your shins, just don't go as hard.. you should be able to dial down the intensity and do them IF you wanted to.

Not to take it offtopic but im fascinated by the Masaii jump. Any thoughts on adding it into one's training?

basically stiff leg pogo hops, one of the most highly recommended reactive exercises on this forum :D

pogos are incredible.. even more so than double leg bounds, MR tucks etc. They train "elastic qualities" obviously but i've always felt like they just improve triple extension better than any other exercise .. so if you want that "flick of the wrist" of a jump shot effect for your ankles, pogos are your exercise.

you basically try to keep your legs "locked" upon landing and flick yourself back up .. you can actually do this submaximally to start & it still provides a great training effect. It's easier to keep your legs locked when going submaximal. As you get higher, you'll have a little bit of bend upon landing which is fine. These Maasai jumpers allow more knee bend. If you notice they hardly have any arm swing either.

during my peak RVJ I felt like I could get near 30" or so off the ground on these, maybe even more .. here's a video of me doing them, but not at that level:

<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F3ITzUbZzMk" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F3ITzUbZzMk</a>

here's two more videos of the same Maasai jumper:

Yeah I'd like to find a 67 fastback and get the Eleanor kit for it.

ya nice. i love muscle cars. As for new cars, i'd only really want to get a Tesla (non-gas guzzling)... but, old muscle cars to me are an exception.

30 min walk 3.5mph 4 incline
20 min amrap
5 snatch@95
10 push ups
15 wallballs
15 minutes bike

I gotta watch my diet, feels like my appetite is up due to the weights.

I bought a sandbag thing with a bunch of handles on it and comes with a 10/15/20 pound sand kettlebell bag set.

just don't leave it outside.. i made my own sandbags for lifting, way back in like 2005 or so.. left em` outside. eventually i'm lifting it, and i start feeling stings, red ants all over me .. they created a nest inside the bag somehow, and it was full of ants. nightmare.

btw a request, near some of those Week X- Day X etc, maybe prefix it with YYYY/MM/DD ? I keep getting lost without dates :f or maybe i'm being a noob?

pc!

Thanks mate. Didn't train again today and hopefully back at it tomorrow.

Yeah good idea. I'll start adding a date to each one cause I can't remember either. Haha lol'd at noob
