Heavier lunges next time?

ya im pretty sure i should just keep progressing until i cant hit 400 each leg with whatever weight.. or until that soreness becomes very extreme..

surprisingly my quads are not sore at all after those lunges sessions.. hamstrings are usuall less sore than glutes.. so that's a good sign you know? i should really push the intensity and maintain the volume until im taxing my strength/recovery capacity fully, imo.

peace man

Sounds like a cool plan. My quads are never spre from lunges. Always only hams and glutes.

they (quads) were extremely sore the first few times i did 400.. but they adapted pretty well.. i'd expect some soreness honestly, i'm surprised there is none after 10lb db's, which is 20 lb total BW.. who knows maybe 40 lb total BW will hit them, dno though, doubt it.

ps: im glad i dont have any quad soreness, don't want any either.. I want only one day soreness from these sessions, mostly glute & ham.. so it should be interesting as I progress the weights, to see how much soreness I get.

Whats the idea of these though? Indestructible hamstrings?

to somehow build legs that thor would be jealous of.

i figure i've spent 25 years of my life not stimulating my glutes/hamstrings, so i have alot of work to do.. walking lunges allow me to recover between reps as i alternate legs, yet still really hit the musculature very hard each session.. my legs have been growing pretty good since i've been doing them with just bodyweight, so using weight will help me really put some significant mass on my glutes/hams, and even quads even though they aren't experiencing DOMS etc.. beyond that, it also is a great conditioning workout, i mean my fitness/work capacity has increased a ton in the last few months.. my unilateral strength feels ridiculously high.

so ya just overall conditioning/strength/mass.. the number seems high, i agree, but the results are exactly what i'm after, a combo of conditioning + strength + mass all in one..

peace man

Sounds great.Could this be used to loose weight? Like instead of jogging or riding a bike?

well a session definitely could be used to burn a ton of kcal ya, but you just couldn't really do it every day.. i wouldn't advice that, could be too much for the hips/knees, even tho mine feel fine, every day could become problematic.

yo im out!

gn folks!

165 lb before workout, I ate ALOT :F

7/25/2010

bw = 161
soreness = glutes still
aches/injuries = felt pretty good

workout:
- nice warmup, warmup sprints
- ~30 yard sprints x 8
-- ^^ focused on a few different things.. think i went a bit faster.. i focused on how i ran when I got chased by a bunch of gang members when I was young.. i smoked my friend who was a beast in sprinting/jumping in grade 6.. level-7'd but I've always remembered how I ran that day, so I'm going to work on it a bit and see if it has any effect.
-- ^^ hamstrings were toast using this technique change..

- C1: 135 squat singles : 6 x 1
- C1: 20 lb bar jump squat onto 16" box, go lower than comfortable on descent,  land as stiff legged as possible : 6 x 2

- natural GHR: 3 x 5 partials, then 3 x 2 (low as i can go then back up, then try to descend all the way down eccentric)

done.. hamstrings feel pretty toastEd.

peace

Vid of GHR!!

ya i will eventually, it's pretty pathetic right now though.

Chased by gangmembers. Thats the difference in our lives. Most dangerous thing I ever ran from was the rain.

haha.. i been chased quite a few times.

i missed every dunk except for one, but that one make, might be my favorite dunk of all time.. the intensity is ridiculous.. im yelling as i dunk it down and it's like 36 or so.. here's a miss and a make:









here's me timing some kid's jump shot with my lob:



here's me going up for a lob while these guys were playing two on two, i mean, i was warming up to dunk before they started playing their weak game so i felt obliged to do a few lobs while they were playing:





funny pic, i should have asked if i could jump over him for some epic dunk footage:

one make, two misses, from tonight... the make is nasty imo, i love it, love it to death:

nice dunks mang, power on the first one is great,

thanks man! ya i love that dunk, instant fav.

hard work GO GET IT, pays.

damn right!

vids/pics of dunk session above ^

workout #1:
- dunks, got up nasty.. 36 RVJ probably.. seems like it from the pics/vid

workout #2:

Thats great footage. Like it.

Yup , id say 35'' on the dunk , 36'' for the miss right after.
