Week 2- Day 2
1pm

LISS Run

40.03 mins
6.13km

Calves bore the brunt of this run. Had to walk up two significant hills and the calves were burning. Don’t have an HR monitor so I have a small convo with myself every now and then to make sure I’m around the right range.

Week 2- Day 3
1pm

LISS Run

40.02 mins
6.45km

Felt like I may have pushed a little harder here than I needed to. More walking and more distance than yesterday suggest that as well. Prob need to slow the pace down a bit. I’m nearing 6m/km pace when I should be closer to 7. Will do that for the long run this week.

Week 2- Day 4
5.15am

SE Circuit- 2x30 @40kg (30kg for push press)

Push press, front squat, row, floor press, shrugs & RDL

Got through each circuit quicker today. Total time for both was 31.06 including the 2 min rest between circuits. Took mostly 60s between exercises with 30s between shrugs and RDLs. Push press was also easier today too. Feeling good about this. 

8pm
Basketball game. I haven’t played in about 9 weeks and I definitely noticed the difference in my cardio. Still got puffed after repeated sprints but recovered after 1 minute instead of that accumulated fatigue that usually sets in. Pretty stoked that’s the case after not even two weeks of running.

Week 2- Day 5
7pm

Hapkido. Great class. Worked sparring combos and transitions for the first 45 mins or so. Put the protective gear on and we all got smashed a little. Plenty of falling and getting thrown. Next 45 mins was technique work. Lots of 2nd Dan and trying to remember all the stuff I’ve learned and forgotten over the last 7 years.

Week 2- Day 6
1pm

LSS

58.58m
8.39km
7.00min/km pace

Quote
Was aiming for 7min pace and got exactly that. Felt I had been going a little too hard in the previous runs. Can definitely feel the difference here. If I had somewhere nice to run or a good loop that was 8-9k this would be much more enjoyable and I might even like running.

ya maybe, those hills sound like they are rough.

running seems like a great way to induce temporary schizoprhenia.

Haha. That's pretty much what it is. Temp schizophrenia indeed.

Week 2- Day 7

Rest

Week 3- Day 1
9am

SE Circuit- 3x40 @40kg (30kg for push press)

Push press, front squat, row, floor press, shrugs & RDL

Total time: 1hr04mins

Fuck that was hard. Took lots of mini breaks in sets. Especially push press, front squats and floor press. Was still getting at least 10 reps but needing more time. Felt on empty at start of last circuit but found something to get through.

3x50 is going to be interesting next week  :o

Week 3- Day 2
12.30pm

LSS- 50 min

Ended up using the elliptical. Joints were feeling a little beat up so wanted to avoid running today. First time for everything and it was interesting. Not actually doing it but that I could measure HR the entire way through.  Stayed right around 130 with a few small fluctuations.

Week 3- Day 3-7

Working holiday to Hamilton Island. Fully intended to train my way through but the gym opened at 7am and when I got up at 5 to train and it was pitch black outside it wasn’t looking good. I caved and drank and ate my way through the next 4 days. Took the day 7 off and ended up taking what would be day 1 of week 4 off too. Aaaannnnd moving on. Going to run week 3 again and go from there.

Week 3 Day 1 (rerun)
5.15am

SE Circuit- 2x40 @40kg (30kg for push press) 2 min breaks b/w ex-  1x20 @40kg (30kg for PP) 30s break b/w ex

Push press, front squat, row, floor press, shrugs & RDL

Total time: 53mins

Ran short of time and had to cut the last set in half for reps. Did all the reps unbroken with only 30s rest between exercises which was pushing it but was nice. Felt kind of ill for a while after that and did drive home rather slowly. 

Week 3 Day 2 (rerun)
Pretty bad cold. Won’t do LSS today. May do Hapkido class tonight if I pick up during the day.
Did not train.

Week 3- Day 3 (rerun)
No training again. Still sick but on tail end. Should train tomorrow.

16-08-17- Week 3- Day 4
5am

Program called for 2 x 40 reps on the strength endurance circuit. Got through the first one pretty well in around 20 mins. Got 4 reps into the second and felt like trash. Racked the bar, packed up and went home.

17-08-17 – 21-08-17
Rested to recover from the head cold. Kept getting up thinking I was over it but I was wrong.

22-08-17- Week 4- Day 1
5am

Strength Endurance Circuit- 1x50 @ 40kg (30kg for push press)
Push press, front squat, bent row, floor press, shrugs, RDL

Didn’t want to start week 3 again so pushed on. After this there’s only 1 week left of the base building phase and I’ve enjoyed it a lot. Will definitely do another run of this in 6-8 months time.

1x50 was pretty good. Mentally pretty easy as you don’t have to come back for another set. Have another 1x50 later this week. 3x50 next week will be interesting. May need to lower the weight on push press and floor press. Thinking I will seriously struggle on those. Will see how this week pans out.

Filled in for the ball team last night. Caught a bounce pass about 5 mins in and the ball felt like it had an egg in it. I stopped and looked at the ball. No problems there. Put my hand back on it and felt the same thing again. Passed the ball off and it was only then that I noticed the first knuckle on my finger had dropped. Two hospital visits and an x-ray later and I have ruptured the extensor tendon on the right hand ring finger. Now I've got 8+ weeks in a splint to look forward to. I have that FML feeling going on but this presents some opportunities to work on things I wouldn't normally work on so there's always that.

Damn, wishes for a fast recovery man!
But maybe you are right, those injuries that don't put you off but just redirect you, sometimes they are blessings in a catastrophe disguise!

Thanks guys. It was strange. I just assumed dislocation as I've seen a few that looked just the same. There was no pain so that was the weird part. The fact that I don't need surgery is the biggest blessing for me though.

Yeah I agree Vag. My gym has a safety squat bar that I can't wait to use. Also will give me a narrow focus which I definitely need.

Oh mate.......the old mallet finger! I did that twice to the same finger.....really took me out of basketball for awhile - not because it was a debilitating injury, but it's just so fiddly and annoying for everyday life/work. Bugger. Really sorry to hear that. But luckily if you do it right and are really strict on not letting it bend, it will heal up fine. I'd recommend a splint like this if you can get it:

The other types of splints are a pain in the arse for showering etc. But you can get this one wet and wear it essentially 24/7 with a bit of sports tape over it.

The worst part is when you have to shake hands with people it's like you're praying that they aren't one of those types that give bone crunching firm handshakes. Awful luck with the injury. Wishing you a speedy recovery.

Yikes. I saw the photo on instagram. Looks like a freak accident :/ I hurt a finger playing ball dec 2015 and it took several months to heal fully.  Got the xray back and it showed a displaced fracture or something from memory. I think i was able to train around it in the gym by not using that finger. I avoided playing sport though because you can never predict how things will go and you can easily re-injure or make it worse. Hope you bounce back quickly.
