Soreness: upper back a little
BW: 149.4lbs

Condition: It was raining outside and it was quite windy. Came in to the gym at 11:50am, so had 1hr 10 mins, which is not enough.

Warm up
   ankle mobility
   calf stretch
   calf stretch dynamic
   dynamic hamstring stretch lying
   walking quad stretch
   single leg and double leg glute bridges on a box
   hip thrusts on bench
   hip holds single leg /w foot strap at 50kg
   back stretch - front and back
   kettlebell swings 12kg x 5 - felt ok
   
Track warm up
   A walk x 20m x 1
   A skip x 20m x 1
   A run x 20m x 1

Track workout
   10m acceleration sprints x 2 - the start caused some pain in the back 3/10 and then I can't really run at full effort with the pain staying there.

   30m sprints x 2 - same as above but pain always seems stay during the run

Gym workout
   Plank x 2 - 3 minutes
   SVJ x 3 - 22 inches comfortably

Cool down
   stretch
   walk back

Comment
It was raining outside so it was a little hard to stay motivated but after the warm up the rain slowed down, but the wind picked up a bit. The sprints didn't feel explosive but good strong run and especially when running against the wind, it's in slow motion and the pain just sticks his head in during the sprint starts, so did some foam rolling to release some knots. I think it was the same with the box squats back pain, the knots.     
Warm up drills
   - a walk, b skip quick powerful switch (heel to hams focus), a runs, dribbles small to big to run, straight leg to runs (force, reflex, go up/forward). force to hit the ground before it hits the ground knee/hip is at 90 degrees.
   - acceleration: low heel recovery, shin angle low, drive legs back before hitting the ground and drive thighs/knee forward not up

Plan:
Get back on to box squats, but do them for 1 day a week so I can allow recovery from knots. Second gym day would be the new workout I did on Thursday. This would feel better for my body.

Soreness: glutes, back a little
BW: 147.6lbs

Condition: It was a nice sunny day, but unfortunately  I didn't get enough time in the gym, but then again I wasn't expecting a big session after a cold, last few days.

Warm up
   ankle mobility
   calf stretch
   seated single leg hamstring stretch
   bench quad stretch
   high knee single leg hip holds x 10 seconds x 2 @50kg
   back stretch front and back

Workout
   2/3 Squats
      - 1 x 5 @20kg empty bar
      - 4 x 6-8 @70kg
      - 1 x 5 @20kg

   Calf raises on leg press machine
      - 2 x 20 @210kg
      - 1 x 7 @210kg leg press

   Single leg Deadlifts
      - 1 x 7 @20kg dumbbell left hand left leg
      - 1 x 7 @20kg dumbbell right hand left leg
      - 1 x 7 @20kg dumbbell left hand right leg
      - 1 x 7 @20kg dumbbell right hand right leg

   Deadlift
      - 1 x 7 @70kg - stiff leg version barbell
      - 1 x 7 @70kg - RDL - I seem to over hyperextend but once I lift the bar from the floor I feel like I am rounding but I'm not as looking in the mirror but it's also pain free.

   Cable rotations 1 x 10 @15kg each side

   Side cable bends 1 x 10 @25kg
 
   back extensions - painful for the lower back holding 15kg but managed to do 10 reps and hold last rep for 30 seconds. the pain is from the back going to an extended position. Don't know if I should just remove this or replace it with reverse back extension.

Cool down
   stretch
   walk back

Comment
It was a good session, the squats were ok, I only went down as far as I could, unless I got lighter than obv I could go lower but impossible to go below thigh parallel as after the back will still curve and just mess up. You can tell this when you feel the tension leave the posterior chain and tightness in the back. RDL felt good just need to get used to the posture.

remove everything that causes pain.

A lot of things that has been causing me pain has been because not doing it correctly, like with the back extension since i use a bench I place my hips on the edge and that makes my lower back the pivot point, but most of the time you don't realize it because it's a small adjustment that can make big difference. but yeah stop if it causes pain. #AELS

A nice day for a speed session, minimal effect from the wind. The back felt better from the runs just felt tight only at 30m, did the pain show up a little but after a few more runs the pain disappeared so the 50m sprints were comfortable.

   Hamstring stretch lying down
   Quad stretch on edge of bench
   Single leg hip thrusts on edge of bench
   High knee hip holds single leg @50kg 2 x 10 sec each leg

Pre workout treadmill run - missed as both treadmills occupied, that's all they have as it is a small gym.

Workout
   Box Squats
      - 1 x 5 @20kg
      - 1 x 7 @70kg

   Plank - barbell spins variation - didn't really work that well

Cool down
   stretch
   walk back
   tennis ball roll back muscle

Comment
It was a good session, the box squats was quite easy the only challenging part was   really contracting my core as hard as I could and back pain was only on the muscle 5/10, so I decided to not up the weight until the pain is little. The deadlifts felt really good for my back and the back extension. calf raises were comfortably easy and did a leg press straight after the last set, comfortably easy to do 210kg. Cable twists getting easier. Good session. Only once a week. Half squats is the second session on thursday.
Warm up drills
   - a walk, b skip quick powerful switch (heel to hams focus), a runs, dribbles small to big to run, straight leg to runs (force, reflex, go up/forward). force to hit the ground before it hits the ground knee/hip is at 90 degrees.

Soreness: upper back doms
BW: 147.8lbs

Condition: My shortest session ever. I was stuck between a late start and an appointment later on. 11:45 to 12:15. Sucks but atleast it's not a recurring thing so I guess it's a good light/recovery day.

Warm up - 10 mins
   Ankle mobility
   Calf stretch
   seated hamstring stretch
   hip thrusts
   high knee single leg holds @bw x 20 seconds each leg
   back stretch front and back

Pre Workout treadmill run - 5 mins
   23km/h @15% incline sprints, much more confident to run without holding for a couple of seconds before holding it and running for 15 - 20 seconds.

Workout - 15 mins  :raging:
   Partial Squats
      - 3 x 5 @70kg

Cool down - 5 mins
   stretch
   walk back

Comment
Only had 30 mins for warm up and workout so I thought of doing a compound workout I could benefit the most and calves and hamstrings already feel strong enough and decided to do the squats as it can target entire p-chain and quads are slightly weak.
Warm up drills
   - a walk, b skip quick powerful switch (heel to hams focus), a runs, dribbles small to big to run, straight leg to runs (force, reflex, go up/forward). force to hit the ground before it hits the ground knee/hip is at 90 degrees.

Comments
Excellent and fun session, the sprint start 1 steps really helps as when I do the sled sprints and then without sled sprints, I didn't stumble and the runs felt pretty good. If next week is a good sunny day I may record my 30m runs with my light shoes if possible. See where I am. After the 30m sled runs I had 15 minutes left. So I could only fit one 30m sprints if I wanted to do 1 50m sprint, next time I will have to do 1 sets of a walk, skips and runs.

Track Workout - 50 minutes
   Sled Sprints @45kg x 2 x 10m

I feel every time I read your log, there's something bizarre incorporated into an otherwise innocuous workout. This fits the bill right here.

The key with weighted sled pulls is to progressively overload your ability to accelerate over 10-30m. But it has to be within thin margins, otherwise you stop performing the technique you're trying to overload. You cannot be sprinting properly with this much weight - it will just be a slow push. From what I've done and read about, something like 10-15% of your bodyweight, or a maximum of 10-15% drop-off in your 10-30m sprint time, is what you're aiming for here.

This has been asked this a few times with no response: if your goal is 100m, why are you only running a maximum 50m, once or twice a week? Is this part of an incredibly long-term training plan? Why not do some tempo sprinting, or anything other than short acceleration work (but confusingly, no block starts, which is something you really should be doing if your goal is the 100m)?

It's only because you post so much that I want to help your training, but it's still so confusing.

I appreciate your input as always. In regards to the sled sprints you are right that they should usually be 10-15% of your bodyweight. But doing heavy sled drags are also very beneficial in developing explosive power for the first 10m. Joe defranco is a big supporter of this and they have studies for it, but they do loads of 69 - 91% and they walk instead of run so it's sled drags. 45kg would be at 67% bodyweight and it is basically a slow motion sprint so it is like an acceleration drill of getting my acceleration form right as well as developing the power and explosiveness at the same. Later on I may do sled drags where I go heavier i.e. 50-60kg but just walk instead of running in slow motion. I then afterwards do the regular sled sprints of 10-15% BW at 30m.

I am not currently training for the 100m yet, maybe improve my 40 yard dash time. But it is part of a long term plan.

Soreness: quads, glutes, hamstring
BW: 147.6lbs

Condition: It was really sunny, but inside the gym the sun's rays didn't reach far inside, so there were cool spots in the area I was working. Arrived at the gym at 12:00 so had approx 2hrs, which is enough for lower leg work but I also do upper body so the last part of the session was rushed in terms of reducing resting time.

Warm up

   calf stretch/mobility
   hamstring stretch lying
   quad stretch lunge position
   single leg glute bridges
   hip thrusts using a bench
   high knee hip holds with thigh strap @50kg

   Hanging plate walks @20kg x 2 laps in the gym

   Leg press calf raises
      - 1 x 5 @130kg
      - 1 x 7 @130kg single leg attempt but other muscles also played a part so abandoned idea.

      1 x 7 each side @12.5kg dumbbells in each hand

Cool down
   stretch
   walk back
   peanut tennis ball rolling lower back - no pain

It was a good and a challenging workout. The box squats where I miss out the lean back is more harder due to the lean back giving momentum, but also hip has to work more. The leg press calf raise was good but hard with single leg, The deadlifts were challenging especially last set last rep, the difficult part is once you have stood up you want to extend and drive hips forward. The rest were good.

   
Warm up drills
   - a walk, b skip quick powerful switch (heel to hams focus), a runs, dribbles small to big to run, straight leg to runs (force, reflex, go up/forward). force to hit the ground before it hits the ground knee/hip is at 90 degrees.
   - acceleration: low heel recovery, shin angle low, drive legs back before hitting the ground and drive thighs/knee forward not up

It was an ok session seeing how tired I was.But pushing through equals progress. Squats were good. With a stronger back I am able to descend low ofc without weights but just having that flexibility is good progress. the rest were average and after the calf raises, I do 7 reps of leg press straight away just for one set. Need atleast 2 hrs for a good workout session. hopefully it's sunny on sunday.

A good session, it was a good idea to do 120kg squats again as this time round much less painful and more stronger, so now I can progress by 10kg next week even though I want to up it by 20kg but #AELS. Last set I did it by just descend and just touch and come up, which was way easier and maybe like a transition assistance exercise for the partial squats this thursday. calf raises are easy so I do it 1 rep at a time slowly to make it more difficult. RDL comfortable up to the lower shin, might alternate between deadlifts and RDL per week. Also need to alternate upper body between bench press and shoulder press.

A good but bad session because of rain, this made me stumble a lot when running but I had enough mobility to prevent my self from falling or slowing down.
