damn 200 lb wtf haha!

nice jumps @ 200!

Thanks man!
Just measured in the morning , weight = 195 , waist = ~36 1/4 , BF estimation = ~18,5%


18.5 bf%?

Thats an online calculator estimation , its not 100% accurate but im there more or less.
I was never lean anyway , never had a 6-pack , best i ever got was "4-pack" , BF ~12% at BW ~170 and age ~25.

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?

27 May 2010

Weight@session: ~200
Strength block B, 1st strength workout.

SQUATS:
1x6@209
1x6@231 , ( +11lbs )
1x6@253 , ( +22lbs )
1x6@231 , ( -11lbs )
209 was ATG and a bit explosive , 231 was parallel and 253 was ~2'' above parallel.
6x253 : 6-rep PR , projected 1RM PR (314) , and also 1RM/BW PR ( 161% )!!!

BSS :
1x8@154
1x8@187 ( +11lbs , 8rep PR tie )
1x6@209 ( +22lbs , guess what... PR! )

CALVE RAISES:
1x12@308
1x12@374 ( PR tie )
1x12@418 ( This is ridiculous! anyway...  PR! )

That was a damn hard workout , probably most hard workout i ever had , i was giving 100% all the time.
It was way too demanding , physically and mentally.
But seeing this page now turn green from PRs , i can say it was worth it! :D

Green/red = differences from equal sets from previous same workout.

29 May 2010

Conditioning/recovery workout
Weight@session : 198

Pretty sore from workout 36hrs before. Mostly glutes and calves , a little less hamstrings and abductors and only a little sore at quads.

- 10' dynamic workout.

- 3 mins rest

INTERVALS:
- 10x80m sprints at ~60%
- 5 mins rest
- 10x80m sprints at ~60%
- Total 20 sprints , it was ~20sec sprint , ~40 sec rest.

-5 min rest

JUMPS:
- Jumping on concrete , 10' rim.
- 1x3 SVJs                  : ~27''
- 1x3 1-step DLRVJs   : ~29''
- 1x3 2-steps DLRVJs  : ~30''
- 1x4 full runup DLRVJs : ~31'' in 3 of them , got 32'' in one though! :D

Never saw that coming , being sore and after all that running.
I was expecting 25-26 SVJ and 29-30 RVJ.
I felt shity too , jumps were uncoordinated , feeling too stiff , not springy or elastic at all , you know the feeling after heavy gym days. Just couldnt believe i was geting those heights , i would land and then laugh and say "WTF?" all the time! :D

31 May 2010

Conditioning/recovery workout
Weight@session : 197

- 15' dynamic workout.

- 3 mins rest

INTERVALS:
- 10x80m sprints at ~60%
- 5 mins rest
- 10x80m sprints at ~60%
- Total 20 sprints , it was ~20sec sprint , ~40 sec rest.
Starting to see the difference is sprints: Feet are feeling lighter , i have much more breaths , feeling much more fresh at the end , feeling i can go much faster. Good shit.

-5 min rest

JUMPS:
- Jumping on concrete , 10' rim.
- 1x4 SVJs                  : ~27''
- 1x3 1-step DLRVJs   : ~32'' , 10'7'' in all 3 jumps!
- 1x3 2-steps DLRVJs  : ~32'' , 10'7'' in all 3 jumps!
- 2x4 full runup DLRVJs : mostly ~31'' , got only one jump at 31,5''

Weird! With those 32'' 1&2 step jumps i was sure i'd PR on max runup RVJ. But i didnt , couldnt even match that 32.
Maybe it was fatigue from the 20 sprints and the 6 consecutive 32'' jumps.

1 hour later:

"7 Days Vertical Jump Cure" routine
My usual lower body stretch routine

To be honest , i think it was mostly psychological. When i hit 32'' with my first 1-step attempt , i got too hyped , i started thinking id PR , so when i tried the full runup jumps i was too stiff , thinking "PR PR PR" and i failed! :D
Anyway , im ok with those sessions. I dont really care what heights i get , as you see ive been jumping every 2 days , after 20 sprints too. Thats why im labeling  them "conditioning/recovery" workouts and not "vertical jump testing".
Im just trying to use some low/moderate volume little bit of everything. So those 1x3 jumping shit just keeps me in touch with max jumping but total volume is only 12 jumps. Sprints are also great but they are at 50-60% so they dont drain me , Kelly's 7DVJC is a great core+glutes routine but its light again...
So the main element of my training is still the weight room , im just trying to make me a bit more athletic without interfering with the big plan.

he'll still be doing strength work though so, he's definitely going to make sure his strength isn't dropping while he does this explosive phase. strength:explosive = 1:2
