23 February

3K low aerobic HR zone warmup
Sprint 6x400m / 90'' to 2 minutes walking rest
1K low aerobic HR zone down

-400m paces were around 4:30 , best was 4:20 worse was 4:45. Nice!
-Great week cap. First week of 2024 that i do all 3 run sessions ( easy/slow/HIIT) , also first week of 2024 that i trained 6/7 days.



27 February

RUN 8.5K @ 49:39 ( 5:50 pace )

-Bad run to start for the week. Legs were expected fresh but they were dead, muscularly.
I was 10'' per km slower than last week, but at least i did 500m more for the silly 2024 distance  :personal-record:
Also at the 8K split i was at 5:44 so not that far from last weeks. But the feel was worse.

Not bad at all.

I like the swings. Remind me of the good old vert training day
Yes i do tilt. Not planned, it comes naturally, it is a p-chain dominant explosive exercise so i subconsciously posterior-tilt and squeeze that old butt at the end.  ;D



Damn i fell back at logging, let's see if i can recall what i did:

9 February

DEADLIFT :
5 @ 80kg
5 @ 90kg ( +5 kg )
5 @ 95kg ( +5 kg )
5 @ 100kg ( +5 kg )
5 @ 105kg  ( +5 kg ) , ( +1 rep )
-Wow much stronger. 80kg just flew up.

INCLINE DB PRESS : 4x10 @ 20 kg  each hand
LATERAL DB RAISE : 10, 10, 9. 9 @ 12.5kg each hand  ( +2.5 kg per hand for all sets )( -1 rep for last 2 sets )

DB SHRUGS : 3x12 @ 20kg each hand

Strong!



12 February

RUN 8K @ 45:22 ( 5:40 pace )

Even faster than last week but legs are dead. Quads specifically, they are muscularly fatigued.
3*weights + 3 *cardio / week doesn't come for free at this age.



13  February

ATG SQUAT:
5@60kg
5@65kg
5@70kg
4 + 1x1/2 @72.5kg
3 + 2x1/2 @75kg
-Same weights and reps with last week (but i completed set reps with halfs ). Legs even more dead though.

DB BENCH : 4x10 @ 20kg each hand
SEATED CABLE ROW : 4x10 @ 59 kg ( +6 kg for first 2 sets )

8 February

Low aerobic HR zone run 8K @ 55:50 ( 7:27 pace )

1km more, yet 25''/km faster on average, compared to last week.
Impressive progress. Watch agrees, it is improving my metrics rapidly.
I guess Ive built a solid fitness base over those last years.

Id say anatomy. Long legs short tosro, if i bring the bar lower i have to bend even more. Plus it always felt off, i prefer high bar, always did.



2 February

DEADLIFT :

Low bar squatting was never my thing, we talked about it many times in the past, i tried it but it never worked, high bar was always better/stronger for me.
Guessing from how that fatigued 3*72.5 went this week, id say i could do a 85 or even 90 kg single. BW is little over 86 lately.



1 February

Low aerobic HR zone run 7K @ 55:04 ( 7:52 pace )

Finally, a 'real' (non-treadmill) low aerobic zone run, first since mid October.
Very slow as expected ( about 1 minute / km compared to last time, which was my last week before HM race though, at my best fitness ever ).
Speed is not important at this period, bringing in and progressing weekly low-aerobic and HIIT sessions is the goal.
