Notes

So plan to structure chin workouts will be rotate +10.5/+24/+26.5 with reps at 6/4/3, and move up weight when I'm at 6x6, 4x4 and 3x3 (so next sesh for the 4s will be with 24 since I did 3x4 last time, but will move to 27.75 for 3x3). ETA: maybe makes more sense for the third limb of this to be 2 reps, but still only add weight when I hit 3x2?

A little bit of finger tenderness so just a few light sets to get some blood flowing there.

Decided on a whim to give planche stuff a go. I can do a legit tuck planche now! Have never really managed it for more than a couple of seconds before, so this is exciting. Will alternate dips and planche for push work now.

Run tmrw.

Run

3.55mi in 34:20 [9:39 pace]

Notes

Legs tired. Tried to keep this within nose breathing territory. Might do a parkrun w/ some friends tmrw, though I won't be fully recovered. Will probs just treat it as a tempo or something less than a full effort 5k.

Wore my kinvaras instead of my nikes for this -- glad ankle felt good with the lower drop, sign of strengthening/recovery.

Back/lats recovery so much better now back to weighted chins stuff, though that's partly because the volume is more moderate. Anyway, definitely going to stick with that for at least like 6 weeks. Likewise another 3 weeks (5-6 sessions) with the long duration hangs.

Running is nice, looking forward to getting back into a rhythm with it + dropping some weight. Chins and especially hangs are going to feel so much easier at 66kg. Thinking about how big of a difference +4kg makes on weighted hangs, my climbing could move to a whole new level with that loss. Just need to commit!

Edit: also keeping mentally joking about the idea of doing smolov jr with chinups...am more than strong enough now, in that none of the sessions would require me to use <BW....

Run

6.77mi in 56:30 [8:20 pace]

Notes

Run w/ LBSS. Middle ~4ish miles of this with him. He's in better shape than me, for now...

Ankle held up nicely, though weirdly the muscles of my right foot feel pretty fatigued after the run -- not something I've experienced before.

Chins tmrw.

New WR from Kamworor! 58:01!

wednesday

- run 11.47km in 59:02
ran to and then around in victoria park. beautiful, got turned around a few times, went a bit farther than i intended.

This is where I do 90% of my running. It's gorgeous. Nice little food/produce market on Sundays too.

I actually ran there Wednesday too, maybe we went passed each other that day.

Notes

Morning rather than evening workout, felt a little flat. Assisted OACs seem pretty good, though TBH i like them more for the statics than for the full movement -- just feels a little distant from the actual exercise. Really hard to get multiple reps too. Anyway, might try out that 4x3-5s w/ short rest protocol I was using for two arm chins with this. Or maybe I should just go back tp trying to push up chins?

Just need to pick something I think is going to work for me and stick with it.


Edit: anyway, only need to get 8kg stronger and I'll have an OAC. Simultaneously sounds like a lot and not a lot.
