Yes, had to join adarq.org running mania, even late lol.
Unfortunately, i got a really hard work week that made me lose a weight-lifting and a bball session. On the bright side, i got 2 weight and 1 running session that week and i still consider it a derailed one, that has to be progress!

Log from Saturday:

20 January 2018

Bodyweight@session : ~86,5kg
Soreness : none
Injuries/aches : none

PUSH-PRESS:
10@20kg
5@40kg ( +10 kg ) , ( -3 reps )
3@50kg ( +10 kg ) , ( -2 reps )
3@52,5kg ( +2.5 kg )
3@55kg
-Very nice.

RDL:
8@75kg ( +2.5 kg )
8@85kg ( +2.5 kg )
8@95kg ( +2.5 kg )
-Very nice.

DB LUNGES:
8 each leg @ 16kg each hand ( +2 kg per hand kg )
8 each leg @ 16kg each hand ( +2 kg per hand kg )
8 each leg @ 16kg each hand ( +2 kg per hand kg )
-Still easy.

DIPS:
12@BW
12@BW ( +2  reps )

DEAD-HANG CHINUPS:

LAT-PULLDOWN:
7@82kg
5@86kg
4@91kg
DEAD-HANG CHINUPS:
7@BW
-Again, BW pullup is easier than BW pulldown. I guess that is the case due to restrictions of the latter.

PAUSED SEATED CALF RAISE MACHINE:
15@65kg 10 ( +5 kg)
15@65kg 10 ( +5 kg)
15@65kg 10 ( +5 kg)

Good progress.

Bodyweight@session : ???
Soreness : mid quads, glutes, abs (mostly lateral) , shoulders
Injuries/aches : none

1½ hours full court basketball.
By far the best bball session of the season, mostly regarding endurance. I was unexpectedly fit, barely skipping plays. Following fast breaks etc. Furthermore, better breaths also help strength and vert. Overall i really enjoyed it. Can't attribute it to the two running sessions that i did the last 10 days, feels too soon, but maybe i should? The difference was chaotic!
On the bad side, a few minutes before the end i got a really hard foul from two guys and i fell without balance, unluckily i fell with my right knee, it got all the impact force. Nothing too serious but it gathered some liquid and hurts whenever i flex/bend the knee, last night i was limping a bit. Ill be fine but i want to squat tomorrow, would hate to have to skip it.

Thanks Andrew, always feels great to PR something.
Target training paces (min/km), calculated from 5K PR 22:49 :
Easy run : 5:48
Tempo run : 4:50
VO2-max run :4:21
Speed form run : 4:02

it's the biggest trick in the run game.. go slow to go fast. it doesn't make sense until it smacks you in the face and you're like ....... wtf?
