Bouldering ~2 hours

Notes

Going to need to think about how to productively log these. Was just a fun session, hadn't climbed for over a month so felt quite clumsy/feet felt heavy. Didn't feel like I'd lost much ground since last time, though.

Friend convinced me to go do the local park run, went badly lol. Not surprising given I'm exhausted fro mexams, hungover and still very sore/tired from the Thursday workout.

21:30 [4:09, 4:13, 4:21, 4:45, 4:02]

Notes

That 4th k was awful, I had just sort of mentally given up -- mental drive sapped by exam season and not yet restored. I ran a 21:30 5k at this parkrun a month ago, though under much better conditions (not just personally, it was 12C/55F rather than 22C/72F...maybe i should do a training trip to florida/pakistan). Bit disappointed but don't think this is really reflective of (lack of) change in fitness. Anyway, no quality runs next week, just easy miles -- two hard sessions in three days here is plenty.

Edit: lol per the Parkrun site i ran exactly same time as a month ago (21:32)

the route is a 2.5km loop so you can see the really fast people coming back round on it -- recognised Paul Martelleti (represented GB at 100km world champs) -- he ran a very casual looking 15:23

Done with exams! Woopwoop, results in a month. Until then mostly chill time. No training today (or yesterday). Tomorrow I'll go for a longer run, 50-70 mins, then Sunday climbing  ;D

Unplanned stress relief tempo, lol

Run -- total 4.77mi

KM splits: 5:31, 5:19, 4:37, 4:52, 4:45, 4:38, 2:19 [500m] then cooldown

Notes

Feeling stressed about my last exam and major exhaustion/brain fog. Went out for stress relief run and legs felt fast, so just rode it out, guess this is my workout for the week.

Watch claims average HR for this was 140 lol, I wish...

Run -- 4.05mi in 41:40 [10:17 pace]

Notes

Just fell into the pace my legs wanted to go today. Was like 10:45 for first half (during which HR was in 130s! happy to be able to run with it that low) and 9:45 for second half.

6/7 exams done, today went really well, finish on Friday.

Meh workout, progressed on stuff but felt meh. Happy to get that 7s hang on 21mm -- wasn't a max effort either. Should be able to progress down to that ledge soon.

Also occurred to me how hard the jump from OHPs w/ the 16kg KB to doing it with the 24kg one is going to be...

Feel like my abs/core are just weak, defo felt like a weakness when trying more overhangy routes. Hoping what I'm doing 2/week is enough to bring them up.

Going to climbing gym sunday w/ friends, hyped. May not lift Friday so I'm fresh, undecided -- definitely not going to do any more finger stuff between now and sunday, though

Run -- 3.62mi in 36:19 [10:00 pace]

Notes

Not much to report on this one. Ran in my usual park, and there was a 10k race going on that I didn't know about. Looked decent.

Glutes sore from Thursday's run! This is good news, since my right glute never got sore from running last year, even on hills, so this shows some progress in terms of it actually doing work while running.

nice! good news.

you're getting lots of good easy runs in, it definitely builds you up.

Yeah, trying to keep volume/intensity pretty moderate for a while. I said this last year and didn't abide by it, but there's a lot of benefits to be had from regular 30-50 min runs that I should probably try to eke out before going to heavy on workouts. Last year I think I did too many workouts too soon/too many moderate/"medium hard" intensity runs. Keeping the higher intensity stuff to once a week should be enough for me for a while. Also leaves me more energy for OAC training/resuming climbing.

I analysed the competition that took place and was watching the 100m and recorded to get a time and the winner got 3.65 seconds to 30m, which is ridiculous and 4.65 seconds in the 40m.

But got 11.3 seconds at the end. Interesting how you can get a quick time in the short distance but then it just fades towards the end.

You would think the genetics is in the fast twitch muscle fiber during the drive phase but also genetics in the endurance towards the end.

just thinking out loud to myself

Think it's probably a timing error, since Bolt's 9.69 100m split through 30m was 3.78s

Run -- 3.67mi in 35:48 [9:44 pace]

Notes

Slept great last night, much needed.

Decent run, legs a bit tired from Thursday, so felt sluggish in the second half, though HR, etc., was pretty moderate.

Ran in my Escalantes for first time in a while, had kept them out of the rotation b/c my calves were getting v tired, but really liked them today. Think calves just needed time to adjust to running as a stimulus again.

Glutes sore from Thursday's run! This is good news, since my right glute never got sore from running last year, even on hills, so this shows some progress in terms of it actually doing work while running.

BW - 71.5kg

Workout

Chins
BW x 2
+5 x 2
+16 x 2
+21 x 3
+24 x 3
+18.5 x 3, 3

Deadhangs @ 24mm
w/u w/ p/u singles

SS1A German Hang
BW x 25s, 25s

SS1B Kneeling Ab Wheel
BW x 8, 8 [felt extra hard today, but think I had more ROM]

Notes

5/7 exams done -- last two shouldn't be too bad. Exhausted today -- normally have a nap at home after each exam (they're in morning and I always sleep poorly the night before, so...), but didn't manage today.

Workout pretty solid despite that! Happy to get 3 reps at 24kg -- felt like not quite a max, don't think I could have got 4 reps, but could definitely have had 3 with a little more weight. Puts estimated 1RM on chins around 1.45xBW, which is nice, feel like it's progressing pretty quickly.

The deadhangs felt pretty strong. Dropped the open handers for time/energy's sake.

Dips are so exhausting...

Notes

Felt solid. 2nd and 4th reps into wind. Light runs before breakfast are fine, but a workout feels less good.

Notes

Another easy one on the books. Looking forward to finishing exams and upping volume on runs a bit. Will do another of those 1k interval sessions later this week, probably Thursday.

German Hang

Notes

4/7 exams one, today's one went well.

Solid workout, a bit tired. Deadhangs progressing nicely, remembering I had chalk lying around made stuff more solid (though I only used it on the open hand sets).

Abs weak, never got good at leg raises or anything of that sort. Hoping the compression stuff, esp pulses, will help, so that I can start doing proper sets of L->Vs.

German hangs feel nice.

Have felt beginnings of a little sniffle for last couple of days, hoping it goes away without me getting ill properly.
