That's unfortunate. I was first in the 110m hurdles in my school, second in the 300m hurdles, and second in long jump (not because I'm good at that one but because very few people do it)

I made it to region but did really poorly in my events. I got put in the 4x400 at last minute and surprised the team, I helped us get to state but I didn't do too well there. That's part of why I want to focus some more on the 400m this year.

Basically you get to ten and feel like you should stop, but you keep going anyway. It really is a mental thing.

I was doing heavy 20 rep 2x/week on squats until I tore my deltoid. I was also on a heavy bench program. I wasn't eating enough during that so I wasn't gaining quite as much mass as I should have but my strength levels shot up like a rocket. I lost most of it after the injury though. (along with a couple inches around my left arm that is only now mostly caught up)

My track coach does have some workouts to lead up to the season, but they're really just a few HIIT sessions in a pyramid up to 600m runs and 30 minute jogs on the off days, it's really just for conditioning and some endurance so the first days of the season don't slaughter everyone. I'd like something that would help a little more with speed and block work. I also long jump, so I need a bit of help with that and if you know anything about hurdles I'd like to do a lot of work focusing on the 60m and 55m hurdles for indoor.

"There is no such thing as hard weather, only soft bodies." -unknown (maybe someone could help me find a source?)

Anyway, I like using this one during track when freshman start complaining about running in rain.

I don't think I would like anything moderated if I was bashing a site for lying, at least this site tries to have civil discussion. Also, I really don't like supplement companies to begin with, especially when they make outrageous claims. The only thing I've read from Berardi is Scrawny to Brawny and his credentials which so far give me the impression that he really knows what he's talking about. (maybe not within TMag, I haven't even been on there) Also, just saying that he sucks isn't a good argument. Plus, he's a living example of his own material, so for now I'll trust him.

Also, I was looking at br.com and I agree, they have really fantastic information. I especially like the article on building calf muscles, I'll be using it, most programs don't incorporate calves or just do a very poor job of it.

I've read plenty on the natural anabolic state in teenage years, I'm glad I'm taking advantage of it.

Yes, HIIT hurts... like hell. I'm still going to do it, but I'm cutting the distances I'll be using, the original plan was to use 200m, 400m, 600m (based on a 400 workout I've done) But I'm changing to 100m, 200m, 400m, and back down. Either way, that one I'll only be using once a week, and the other cardio day I'll just go play ultimate frisbee with my friends. (Which happens to be today)

Phase II Day 3 (Day 3):

Today's workout went really well. I did weighted chin ups, clean and press, weighted sit ups, and cable pull throughs. It seems like every day I got to the gym and finish my workout, I feel like I haven't done quite enough. I felt like that this morning, but I'm starting to feel really sore in my traps and shoulders from the clean and press. Abs don't feel to bad... yet, and I'm starting to feel it in my biceps. Splitting my my meals more during work was a great idea. The last two days I felt like I my snack and lunch were piling on top of each other because of the time I have a chance to eat at work. Today I didn't feel stuffed and because I spread the meals into the latter half of the workday I was able to maintain fairly equal time intervals between meals.

My weight this morning actually dropped to 134 lbs. I'm going to guess it's because I haven't done any real exercise in the past few months and the weight dropped was water and fat. I'm not too worried about it though since weight does fluctuate. (It might also have to do with throwing up after my HIIT session yesterday)

I would be so pissed if they rounded up like that, under 10 is still under 10 no matter how close it is.
