Damn, that's a high squat. I thought you were going just a couple of inches above parallel.

Article & Video Discussion / Re: ADARQUI's Instant RFD Series
« on: July 13, 2009, 12:37:25 pm »ok men.
after two weeks doing this experiment I feel good but my legs feel a bit tired, maybe 'cause I neglet stretching
I'd like to know which kind of exercises I've to do after a training session to quickly recover (static stretching, pnf...?).
Thanks
Andrew has a warm up and cooldown article on the main site. I've found I recover better when I add the cooldown to my workout.

« on: July 01, 2009, 04:05:50 pm »interesting that you actually felt refreshed though.. i've only had that happen a few times with such crappy sleep.. i understand the non-effected training session, but the feeling fresh part is weird.. maybe you had some crazy deep REM sleep in those 3 hours.
peace
I dunno why, maybe it's because I returned to a more normal waking pattern. I usually got up at 7:15 for school, and I always feel best getting up within an hour of that, naturally though, without alarms.

I inadvertantly tested some theory from this article. I slept for only 3 hours today, after being on a schedule of 9+ hours every day for the past couple of weeks. I didn't bother to go to sleep until 5am ( 
) and only managed to sleep until 8am. I woke up feeling suprisingly refreshed, and ended up having a great session, PRing in every lift I attemped.
The session went like this, bold indicates a PR:
Drop Step Vert
30" Tie PR
31"
31.5"
30"
31.5"
Psyched about this!
Weights
Squat
Bar x 10 (44 lbs)
40 x 5 (88 lbs)
60 x 5 (132 lbs)
70 x 3 (154 lbs)
80 x 3 (176 lbs)
All nice deep, clean and easy reps. Good light day.
No ISOs todays as Wednesday is now a recovery day for squatting.
Dumbbell Row
20 x 8 (44 lbs)
32.5 x 5 (71.5 lbs)
45 x 7 (99 lbs)
Dips
BW x 6
+20 x 5 (44 lbs)
Dumbbell Curls (I figured my bicep strength was holding back my chinning progress)
10 x 6 (22 lbs)
14 x 8 (30.8 lbs)

1:04 is pretty fast for having dead calves and shin splints, you're gonna be flying when you can run fresh.

calfs are still soooo sore from the last 400's i ran.. they were less sore walking around today, but once i started warming up to workout, they felt dead/sore as hell.
warmup ~200 yard primetime runs: 2x (light/totally stiff leg)
1/4th mile #1: 1:22
1/4th mile #2: 1:17
1/4th mile #3: 1:21
^^^-- completely dead.. felt like my lower leg was gonna snap in half.. definitely submax HEH.. my recovery/lungs felt good..
jump rope: off & on for 1 hour... intervals x 100-200 FAST sprints with jump rope.. probably 20-25 of them
^^^-- so surprised how good my landings were on jump rope.. landings were SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO stiff.. very odd.. my lungs/recovery for these were very good too.. i was FLYING on the sprints and not feeling it much..
peace
edit: my calfs feel like rocks.
How accurate are the distance measurements for those 1/4 mile runs?

Science and grit is what we're about,

Still though your intro was slick and your rhymes damn on key,
Welcome to the site, it's a great place to be.
LOL! I never expected that...
