yeah it's funny how people are built to do different things. mutumbo is also a pulling machine iirc. meanwhile i'm a pushing machine, i haven't done push ups (other than a few here and there) in ages but i'm sure i could do 30-40 right now if i put my mind to it. would be pleased to get more than 10 pull ups, though, and would have a big drop off after the first set even if so. my squat has also always been way ahead of my DL, relatively speaking.

PushBoss.

I def can't knock out 30-40 after detraining. Can barely get 20 after a detraining period.

I'm the same as Joe. bad at pushups, solid at pullups. I absolutely hate pushups for some reason. Used to do a ton of them in martial arts etc, never did any pullup variations until I basically got a gym membership in college. Yet still, my pulls are always better. I can knock out like 12 BW dips right now and I bet only 20 pushups.

I guess it's also harder when you hate it. lmao. Not sure why I hate pushups so much, I think I just hate getting on the ground for *anything*. I hate any ground based exercise/movement.

My DL was also way ahead of my squat, when I was just starting out.

Workout

Run -- 7.1mi in 54:39 [7:42 pace]

Notes

Nice run, just arbitrarily targeted half marathon pace + 1 min/mile. I guess it's in the halfway zone between threshold and easy running. Forgot my watch cable so not gonna be on Strava for a couple of days, haha.

Did plenty of SL glute bridges and and SL deadlifts amd various plank variations after workout.

Re push vs pull -- idk how much of the difference in me is structural versus learned. I never liked pushups, or really pushing work in general, so I never did that much of it. I've had plenty of times where i basically just did pulling stuff, or really just focussed on pulling strength. As such my back musculature is just always more built up

Notes

Right hip flexor sore again, ugh. Just want to run. Sometimes got a similar feeling pain in my right glute.

just a thought but maybe it's linked to the glute activation work?

I think it probably is in some sense -- the glute activation work will lead to a change in running form, which will lead to new stresses on joints/muscles. That all at the same time as me ramping up volume could certainly lead to overuse injuries of a sort.

Anyway, still hurts today. I think I'm going to try to just not run for a week. Will keep up with upperbody stuff and do some walking (though that at times hurts too). Maybe I'll try to get some stationary cycling in to keep up cardio.

few people i know have some hamstring issues and they defer to the stationary bike. their issues don't seem to be healing. IMHO, stationary bike could definitely help prevent something like that from healing. anything quad/ham/hip flexor related should get stressed decently hard on the bike. dno though. just be careful with it!

yeah, fair...just don't want to give up all cardio, maybe i should find a place to swim, idk.

Notes

Went to physio, was moderately useful I suppose. He is convinced there is no joint issue as such, which is a relief. His diagnosis of the cause of the soft tissue issues is basically what I said above -- right glute still in the process of firing properly, but is no working enough that form is changing and this can cause issues. So basically probably worth limiting harder running while this glute work is still going, but at the same time feel free to amp up glute strengthening/activation work. Gonna get a massage later this week as it helped this pain issue last week.

Workout

Chins
BW x 11, 11, 8

Pushups
BW x 20, 16, 10

SS1A KB OHP
16 x 6, 6

SS1B KB Row
24 x 7, 7

Hip thrust [shoulders raised, feet on ground, KB held in lap]
16 x 12, 12, 12

SLDL
BW x 8, 8

Reverse Lunge [KB held by arm on same side as working leg]
16 x 6, 6

Kneeling Ab Wheel
BW x 10, 10, 10

+ some plank work (front, side and back) and some light abduction stuff.

Notes

Fun to do a full lifting routine! Got a sports massage booked for tomorrow. Everything is feeling a lot less tender today. I reckon I'll probably be good to run on Friday. Just got to make sure I keep things pretty easy for a while still...

Always get this dramatic drop off with pushups, though today was particularly cliffy. It's funny, because when I used to do curls and tricep work I'd get the huge dropoff on bicep work but not tricep work, but here it's the opposite.

Notes

Legs/glutes still sore from lifting. Had massage yesterday on the injured areas, though things were already starting to feel a bit better yesterday. Feeling better yet today! I think I could go for a run without pain, but I'm going to give it one more day and have an easy run tomorrow, if think.

Might do some upper stuff later, not sure.

Busy weekend and I've been a touch lazy to be honest, so no training. Don't feel too bad as giving this hip thing a couple of extra days may pay off in the long run? In any case, excuses over and am running + doing some upper body stuff tomorrow.
