03/23/2011

bw = 153
soreness = none
aches/injuries = heart slightly (go fuck yourself), left knee a little worse than yesterday - got to nip this problem quickly, i think it'll be better by friday though, i've been messing with it badly, pressing it/self myofascial release etc... after MAX EFFORT STANDING: right TFL/ITB
fatigue = very high
diet = protein/mocha bolthouse drink + 3 teaspn caffeine + gatorade-drink, dunking + protein/gatorade/drink, protein/water-drink + banana, 7pm LTMP-SINGLES{normal-stance=135x8,225x1,245x1,275x1,295x1,325x1,345x1,375xFAIL,375x1,385x1}, big chipotle burrito double chicken bam, gatorade-drink, 3:30am LTMP-SINGLES{completely-stiff-leg-submax-hops=4x50, normal-stance=135x8,225x1,245x1,275x1,295x1,325 MSEM @ 1,1,1,1, ng-pullups=15}, protein/water-drink, gatorade + 3 ibuprofen + STACKED PB sandwich + beef/veggie soup


so, big squatting today on low kcal.. was so hungry and hit two huge PR's.

got to blog this LTMP-SINGLES stuff tomorrow.. i've turned LTMP to LTMP-VOLUME and LTMP-SINGLES.

pin 6 half SQ 385 x 1 @ 151 (at the time).. word!!! 2.5x





legs are pretty fried, i didn't really jump max at all today BUT i did do 47 dunk attempts and 10 head height jumps.. the 47 dunk attempts included all kinds of "relaxed" trick attempts etc so.. hopefully i feel good friday, want to go outdoor.

peace






HIGH-FREQ-SQUAT: ANABOLIC BARBELL DIET
- consider this imitation-PED's using high frequency barbell squatting, squat injections ftw. MATVI training
- ped's are for pansies
- NOTE TO SELF: stay light (or stop) if sacral spine issue starts flaring up in the least.
- precede each session with quad, calf, and hamstring static stretches until very loose

ADARQ.ORG ADVANCED PROGRESS TRACKER

PROGRESS-TRACKER-ARTICLE: http://www.adarq.org/forum/performance-training-blog/the-2011-blueprint-better-gains-through-improved-clarity/

Purpose: To log data in a format that is easier to analyze (for ourselves and readers of our journals), so that training setbacks are avoided & progression is of primary importance, thus making our training as efficient & effective as possible.

How-to: Copy, Paste & modify the template to suit your needs: Include this post at the end of each of your training journal posts by clicking "modify" on your previous post, copy and paste it into the current post, and then add the new data.



IMPORTANT REMINDERS
- DO NOT squat without heels elevated, used to heels elevated, too much sitting back aggravates back injury
- DO NOT deadlift aggravates back injury
- DO NOT overstretch quads, aggravates ankle injury <-- happens every time, STOP IT
- as of 1/15/2011, don't do 325 x 5, instead, hit MSEM singles at 325+, stay 305-315 x 5+
- cut out milk, water + protein shakes from now on, more vitamin C, at least 6 bananas per day, more chicken/eggs
- utilize pin squats more, pin 6 work up then transition into pin 7

CURRENT GOALS
01/11/2011: PROJECT SSR7, get down to 150 or less as soon as possible.. maintain 315 x 5 half squat strength + keep a set of 20 maintained (245-265), fix right ankle, more interval conditioning, don't neglect my necessary exercises

thanks alot man, and ya, definitely.. at 145 i'd just feel more like a cat, really f'n light with crazy relative strength hah. that's the goal anyway.

yup, for sure.. that's when the s&c industry just gets flipped on it's head and the scammers take a major hit.

awesome, and ya, it's a bit of work, but, it's entirely worth it.. it really is.. APT is amazing, best thing i've ever "come up with".. i absolutely love it, slaps me in the face every time i post or look over my progress.

that will become your "training dna", everything you do, in that tracker, will result in your current performance.. so every 'list' and everything added to each list becomes somewhat of a genome sequence.

peace man, i'll check it when i wake up officially hah

Thanks for the reply. I am confused because KellyB and common knowledge states that things like high rep squats, 400 m runs, and interval sprint type of stuff, especially for natural aerobic athletes (like you say you are and I know I am) will hamper our strength and power gains.

i'm not so sure kellyb is against high rep squats or 400's though to be honest, he's gone on about 20 rep squats before, and he's in favor of "bodybuilding methods" to improve sports performance.. BB methods imply high volume.



Quote
Can you please explain the logic behind incorporating the fitness. Believe me I would love to because I love hard training and the feeling it gives me plus it helps me not worry about everything i put in my mouth to keep or lose bodyfat. I developed this fear of fitness training.  I get the tendon stiffness thing, but other than that muscular wise it doesnt make sense to me to include high rep squats and running distances at intensities that bathe muscles in lactic acid as kellyb puts it).

well, high rep squatting and 400's are a great way to tax a ton of motor units using submax intensity, also, the prolonged "hypoxic environment" is great for stimulating anabolic hormones such as IGF-1 etc, plus that hypoxic enviornment recruits the fast twitch mu's because their is a prolonged lack of oxygen... the time under tension is considerable to cause a wide variety of anaerobic adaptations which will definitely not hurt strength/power gains.



Quote
Lastly, wouldnt high rep squats for some people put on a lot of size in the form of sarcoplasmic hypertrophy? Fpr skinny folk this is great, but what about thicker types?  Gracias!

it will only result in considerable sarcoplasmic hypertrophy if you are EATING BIG.. I eat clean/moderate, so my legs are very unaffected.. all of the volume I put in on squat, for example, just gives me a temporary pump, then it disappears, but then my legs feel much stronger/loose/recovered after it.y

high rep heavy squatting (10-30 reps) is not to be considered an "endurance" event, it is heavy enough to stimulate all of the highest threshold MU's WHILE recovering those muscle groups due to the anabolic environment it promotes because of the prolonged time under tension/hypoxic environment.

hope that helps, people think 20 rep squats are "high rep", well, is a 100m high rep? 100m is around 45 strides for elite sprinters, isn't that alot of strides? it's around 3+ seconds above what would be considered a pure ATP-PC event (60m for example).. our definitions of "high rep" are all messed up, we need to consider the load on the bar and the total time to fatigue.. if the load is moderate-heavy, no matter how high you go in reps (which won't be too high, 20 or less usually), it'll be VERY beneficial to power/strength/etc.

One interesting thing to note is, usain bolt came from a 400m background.. his ability to maintain top speed after 60m is unrivaled, i'd be willing to bet his years spent training 400's definitely helped him in that area.

20 rep squats are more like 200's, not 400's imo.. don't consider the "total time it takes to complete the set" and compare it to sprinting, otherwise, 5 rep sets would become less beneficial for "power" since they take at least over 30 seconds etc.. can't compare time under squat & reps to sprint times & the time it takes for the energy systems to give out during those sprints.

peace!

something about elasticity maybe adarq?  Any merit to high rep claf raises/quarter squats (similar to defranco 50 rep rhythm squats)

i absolutely hate the idea of 50 rep rhythm squats, he uses some heavy load on those too doesn't he? like 70%?

i don't like the idea of "bouncing rhythm" on barbell exercises for the most part, unless it's very light.. 50 rep rhythm squats are way too dangerous on the spinal column given the reps + intensity + tempo of each rep.

high rep MR half tucks for example, should destroy 50 rep rhythm squats.. if you want to train along the "spring portion of the athletic spectrum", got to keep it light.. overloading that is just getting overzealous with heavy weights and trying to apply it to the most simplistic yet effective movements, bounds/rebounds etc.

high rep calf raises is just a great way to completely fatigue every MU, i can't seem to do it with low rep calf raises, not one bit.. my calfs will feel dead but i'll feel i have alot more left in the tank, hard to explain.. with high rep calf raises, they are completely fatigued and I feel i tapped into everything I possibly could, plus it makes them feel really good and keeps the risk of tweaking the achilles a little lower.. heavy low rep calf raises can really put some strain on the achilles, which i'm definitely not a fan of.. for example, think of the load of high rep MR halftucks vs heavy low rep calf raises.. the risk of tweaking achilles is far greater in the low rep calf raises, but which one is actually training the achilles like a spring? ..... the high rep MR half tucks.. so keep it safer with calf raises and really rep them out until they are toast, they recover very fast, but the gastrocs are about as fast twitch as the glute max.. both respond very well to moderate-high rep training.

people who are afraid of volume make less gains.. for example, how many impulses do the glutes get during a 100m sprint? quite a bit, say 24+ "each glute".. hard to develop the glutes maximally just sprinting 20's, you need to fatigue them to the max, which happens in a 100, but if you don't sprint those kinds of distances, you need to fatigue them max in the weight room using the same principles, using volume.. they get stronger much quicker when placed under fatiguing volume work... so do the calves.. so does pretty much everything honestly lol.. volume work is pretty important and alot of people are afraid to do it because of the misconceptions in s&c.

peace man

People are also afraid doing volume work is going to turn them into 300 pound immobile bodybuilders, which completely goes against the laws of thermodynamics and against logic period.

ya it's funny, i put in more volume than BB'rs for my legs, and they havn't grown really at all in months, yet my strength has gone way up.. i don't bulk or take PEd's tho lmao.

volume won't make you slow, volume won't make you huge if you don't eat huge, etc... volume will make you powerful/stronger/etc, going to fatigue is important, that's why 3-5x10 is a Method used by Verkhoshansky to improve MAX STRENGTH.

But if u don't eat enough to promote recovery, how do u manage to recover? Most of u ppl seem to be able to squat every other day, but I just can't.

For example, I went heavy on the squats on Monday, my legs were toast tues and wed, and although I did manage to get in some work done on squats thurs ytd, my legs were still slightly sore going in.

I was abt to ask if perhaps submax weights were the answer, but I think u have been pushing the weights every squat session right?

How many reps are we talking regarding the 'high rep' calf raise phase?. Bordering failure?.

Also, when you talk about low rep calf raises, have you increased the load?.

well, eating maintenance kcal's is enough to recover, so.. you don't need "excess kcal' to recover, excess kcal will help lead to hypertrophy and fat gain.

i'm adapted to crazy high frequencies, im a work aholic.. if you were to squat every other day, you'd adapt to it.. you have to force the stimulus initially and risk feeling like shit, but you adapt.. plus you'd have to change up your set/rep schemes occasionally to avoid staleness due to the high frequency stimulus.

well i push the weights when they are submax, so, it's still intense.. 10 reppers are very intense.. but ya, i try to push it pretty much every workout, sometimes you have to hold back though.. that's the "art of training", just knowing what to do and listening to your body.. ego can really mess with you when it comes to that, it sure does for me.

pC cowed!@$!

20-30 total, definitely failure, strict form failure.

ya, of course.. i personally hate low rep very heavy calve work, it's just too hard on the tendons when you're also incorporating jumping/sprinting etc.. not a fan of it in the least, ez way to cause achilles tendonitis issues.

bw = 153
soreness = calves alot
aches/injuries = left knee slightly, knees feeling alot better than yesterday though, fascia less inflamed
fatigue = high
diet = gatorade + 3 ibuprofen, protein/water-drink, 1.5 mile walk with dog, 2 mcdonalds crispy chicken snack wraps + ~10 chocolates + gatorade, 7:30pm LTMP-VOLUME{rdl=95lbx40, ng-pullups=10, toes-in-calf-raises=45lbx40}, gatorade + 3 ibuprofen, 8:00pm LTMP-VOLUME{rdl=45x15,135x20, ng-pullups=10, calf-raises=45x40}, LTMP-VOLUME{rdl=45x15,95x40, ng-pullups=10, calf-raise=45lbx40}, protein/water-drink + 12 chocolates, LTMP-VOLUME{rdl=45x15,135x5,155x5,185x10}, gatorade + 3 ibuprofen + 4 eggs + tons of egg whites + sunflower seeds

in order to keep training high freq, i have to mix up my exercise selection slightly, but, it'll be for the best.. i can't do "heavy knee bend work" 4x/day every day, need to mix in non-knee-bend exercises such as RDL, GHR, 45deg hyper etc.. so far all i can really do multiple times per day is RDL, so that's what i did, hit my hamstrings nicely, hope they arne't sore tomorrow because i was actually planning to dunk.

LTMP-VOLUME breakdown: 4 sessions of RDL: 95 x 40, 135 x 20, 95 x 40, 185 x 10

want to get my RDL way up.. should go up pretty quick.. tried goodmornings initially, F goodmornings.. will post some vid of 95 x 40 otmorrow for fun.

~3 miles total of walking dog mixed in.

peace

ADARQ.ORG ADVANCED PROGRESS TRACKER

PROGRESS-TRACKER-ARTICLE: http://www.adarq.org/forum/performance-training-blog/the-2011-blueprint-better-gains-through-improved-clarity/

Purpose: To log data in a format that is easier to analyze (for ourselves and readers of our journals), so that training setbacks are avoided & progression is of primary importance, thus making our training as efficient & effective as possible.

How-to: Copy, Paste & modify the template to suit your needs: Include this post at the end of each of your training journal posts by clicking "modify" on your previous post, copy and paste it into the current post, and then add the new data.



IMPORTANT REMINDERS
- DO NOT squat without heels elevated, used to heels elevated, too much sitting back aggravates back injury
- DO NOT deadlift aggravates back injury
- DO NOT overstretch quads, aggravates ankle injury <-- happens every time, STOP IT
- as of 1/15/2011, don't do 325 x 5, instead, hit MSEM singles at 325+, stay 305-315 x 5+
- cut out milk, water + protein shakes from now on, more vitamin C, at least 6 bananas per day, more chicken/eggs
- utilize pin squats more, pin 6 work up then transition into pin 7

CURRENT GOALS
01/11/2011: PROJECT SSR7, get down to 150 or less as soon as possible.. maintain 315 x 5 half squat strength + keep a set of 20 maintained (245-265), fix right ankle, more interval conditioning, don't neglect my necessary exercises

high rep calf raises is just a great way to completely fatigue every MU, i can't seem to do it with low rep calf raises, not one bit.. my calfs will feel dead but i'll feel i have alot more left in the tank, hard to explain.. with high rep calf raises, they are completely fatigued and I feel i tapped into everything I possibly couldbut the gastrocs are about as fast twitch as the glute max.. both respond very well to moderate-high rep training.

I know what you say about high rep calf raises, and I feel the same. But aren't the gastrocs kind of 50-50 in terms of fiber content (fast twitch/slow twitch)? I knew the glutes are 60-40 in favor of fast twitch, and hamstrings 70-30 (obviously, with individual-related variations).

people who are afraid of volume make less gains.. for example, how many impulses do the glutes get during a 100m sprint? quite a bit, say 24+ "each glute".. hard to develop the glutes maximally just sprinting 20's, you need to fatigue them to the max, which happens in a 100, but if you don't sprint those kinds of distances, you need to fatigue them max in the weight room using the same principles, using volume.. they get stronger much quicker when placed under fatiguing volume work... so do the calves.. so does pretty much everything honestly lol.. volume work is pretty important and alot of people are afraid to do it because of the misconceptions in s&c.

I think it all comes down to common sense. If you use cycles of training and have different periods where you want performance, and periods where you can afford more volume, you can plan that accordingly.

For example, I jump a lot in the Summer because I play ball in the park. But in the Winter I don't have any place to play ball so my volume of squatting etc goes up quite a bit.

Thanks for the response and I actually looked around and saw you have addressed that stuff before similarly so thanks for being cool and stating again.  What do you think about the fact that shorter guys should do deeper squats in order to move weight over the same range of motion as a taller guy doing half squats? Or does the shorter guy stick to half squats since that is the range of jumping anyways but they will have to just push way more weight since the leverages are not as advantages to producing power in sport movements? Then it becomes a question of how thick does a little mans torso need to get in order to support so much load to get their legs strong enough in a heavy half squat. I am overanalyzing like a mofo but being a little guy I have noticed that for me to drop ten pounds and squat 50-85 more will be needed but also tricky.
