possibly my favorite basketball photo of all time:



ya.. teamwork, trust, swag, power, dominance.

i love that pic too.

the hyperextension info applies to the "back raise" also.. I mean you can use your back more for the back-raise position, but it's much better if you use your glutes more (just as you do with the hyper).

i've never done side raises, no idea on that one.

decent instructions though, isLegit == true.

ya I hope GSW looks human this year.. that was amazing last year but also draining (on them, and as a fan) lmao!! Also the fact that they have Durant now, makes me want to see them get beat more.. They are just too stacked. It's similar to the Lebron/Wade/Bosh effect.. but.. Lebron > *

Hoping to see Wade bring some magic to CHI-town.. Would love to see them go deep in teh playoffs.

I'm most excited to see Lebron, like usual. Just love that dude.  :wowthatwasnutswtf:

crazy for ~13:00 5k.. look how fast those predictions are for the shorter distances too. flying.  :ibrunning:

If you could run that fast why bother running the 5k- you'd have the World Record for the 800m  :P

lmao, good catch.

that is all super helpful, yes. thank you.

cool np!

when you say "controlled tempo" do you mean like on a count? for example 2:1:2 eccentric:bottom:concentric? or do you just mean under control and for volume. i remember you doing hundreds of lunges in a row back in the day, do you think that built strength?

ya just under control for volume. I definitely think those lunges were capable of putting some mass on & improving strength, my legs were ridiculously swole after every session. I remember them being particularly snappy after I recovered from those sessions. AND I remember just out of nowhere, wanting to jump off one leg. I remember attributing that sensation of wanting to SLRVJ at the time, to those high volume walking lunges.

I started to get into them again a few months ago but they made me sore for 7+ days... hehe. My body just hates sustained tension right now and I don't even feel like doing it. I do think about incorporating them eventually but, i'll wait a little longer before I re-consider experimenting with that.

so ya I definitely found them very effective at giving my legs alot of "pop" and making them feel crazy strong.

one thing i love about the rower is that it's so easily measurable. still kind of not sure what kind of goals i could set for calisthenics. although i just remembered that gymnastics are a thing, so i could have goals be around doing a handstand, doing a planche, doing flat-footed pistols, etc. jump rope goals are easy: build up to 10 minutes continuous, then 20, then 30. build up to 50 double unders, then 100, then 200. learn criss-cross double unders, then create a jump rope kata and improve time (e.g. 100 skips, 20 double unders, 100 skips, 20 criss-cross single-unders, 100 skips, 20 double unders, 100 skips, 10 criss-cross double-unders, 100 skips).

ya the jump rope stuff is easy and very fun.. for calisthenics I think the measureables are like you said -> mastering new/more difficult positions and sets/reps. I personally don't like turning that stuff into a "cardio style workout" like I mentioned above.. If we are able to focus more on each movement and recover properly, calisthenics can be a great strength training tool.

gonna go do warm up + reactive + strength now.

Yup, we don't realize how fast those guys are. Not endurance fast, fucking short distance sprint fast.
13m 5k  is 50 consecutive 15.5s 100m.

50.
consecutive.
15.5s.
100m.
sprints.
no.rest.
not.a.breath.
just.run.them
consecutive.
50.
fifty.
:motherofgod:

ya man.. it's absolutely mind blowing, that kind of speed at so many different distances.

i'm in awe of these dudes.. insane athleticism.

some nice info

Putting it all together

Taken as a whole, the above information suggests that interval workouts at vVO2max and tempo runs at the lactate threshold are both key ingredients in the training programs of competitive distance runners. In designing a training schedule for a particular individual or team, however, the specificity-of-training principle must again be considered. In short, one's key workouts should be tailored somewhat to the pace, distance, and terrain of the race one is training for. For example, workouts at race pace are almost always a good idea regardless of what that pace happens to be, and long runs may be much more important for marathoners than for 5K specialists. Nevertheless, when pondering these important issues, we should not forget what the data tell us: "long" intervals and tempo runs are probably our best training tools for maximizing VO2max, lactate threshold, running economy, and overall fitness.

sunset tonight:











note to self:
- updating through the day.
- consistency consistency .. consistency.
- stop being a pussy.
- forget about what you did earlier, the day before, the week before, the year before .. focus only on the current session

goals:
- wakeup @ 5 AM
- improve:
-- 100m
-- 200m
-- 400m
-- 1 KM
-- 12 minute test
-- 5 KM
-- L-SLRVJ
-- half squat, half RDL, calf raises, BW upper

potential run protocols:
- always warmup great
- very light stretching before
- light stretching after
- paced runs: pick a pace and hold it 100%
- hold-on-for-dear-life: pick a pace, try and maintain pace for as long as possible -> measure distance maintained
- 12-minute test
- 200, 400m, 1km, 1 mile repeats
- from salazar workouts slide:
-- 6 x mile repeats with 400m jog recovery
-- 20 x 200m, with or without jog recovery
-- 8-12 x 400m, with x-second (~60s) standing recovery

training:
- finish 5k sessions with some ~150-200m max sprints

5k:
- make miles 1 & 2 the same, instead of 2 & 3
- maximally sprint (~160m) at the end of every 5k (from 3.0 to 3.1) -> need to teach myself to always tap into every last MU

markers:
- repeatable 1m:15s 400m's with ~1 minute rest in between
- max 400 under 60s

future contests:
- 10/09/2016: would need to run ~18:30 5k to win
- 11/24/2016: would need to run ~16:30 5k to win
- 12/14/2016: would need to run ~4:40 mile (holiday 1-mile race) to win

cues:
- POSTURE! RUN TALL!
- SHORT GCT
- WHEN TIRED, SHORT GCT + GET STRIDE FREQ BACK ON TRACK
- HOLD HANDS PROPERLY - RELAXED
- STAY RELAXED

warning:
- ALWAYS WARMUP PROPERLY
- DO NOT OVERSTRETCH
- GET ENOUGH SLEEP

weird:
- CREATE IMAGINARY RUNNING FRIENDS & RUN WITH THEM

how come?
- HOW COME I CAN'T ADD ~20m A WEEK TO MY ~13+ MPH PACE?? :f

pre-run meals:
-
theories:
- Think "run beautiful" not "run hard"
-- ^^ has alot to do with how I strike the ground, breathe, don't tighten up, etc
- Really big gulping inhalations through the mouth, prior to a run, could help to get the lungs to wake up.
- Static (short-holds - 5-10s) stretching before running to help me relax, feel loose
- Less (good) fat / More carb = winning

pace data:
- 10.0 mph = 6:00 min/mi, 5k = ~18:36
- 10.5 mph = 5:42 min/mi, 5k = ~17:43
- 11.0 mph = 5:27 min/mi, 5k = ~16:55
- 11.5 mph = 5:13 min/mi, 5k = ~16:10
- 12.0 mph = 5:00 min/mi, 5k = ~15:30
- 12.5 mph = 4:48 min/mi, 5k = ~14:53
- 13.0 mph = 4:36 min/mi, 5k = ~14:18
