i rediscovered/remembered ross enamait the other day. saw an article by john davis about strength training for running and that basically recommends circuit training, and it brought rossboxing right to mind. his blog is still up, so i was looking through the archives. got me itching to find a truck tire and buy a sledgehammer, lol.

this is one place where i disagree with most of what running people recommend re training. i jsut don't get any of the common arguments for circuit training as the main modality for strength. feel like if you're lifting for running purposes, your goals are (a) do a thing that helps the most with running and (b) accumulate the least fatigue. circuits seem bad on both counts! less rest, more metabolic, less strength focused, etc., all seem bad. i feel like the only lifting that makes sense is lower volume, high intensity power and/or strength work. like 2 sets (per week!) of 2-4 reps across relevant things

suddenly hot, 82/28 degrees. HR way up, but also just ran this a little too fast. gonna be warm again tomorrow morning for my penultimate Big Workout, but at least not quite this warm. same deal next weekend, as well. almost close enough to race day to start obsessively checking the forecast for toledo, ohio.
