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 sessiongoals:- 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

apparently I averaged a ~5:30 min/mi pace for my ~420's- felt decent, but very sore
-
what's funny is: I thought I was running 400m, not 420m.. so when I saw my times, I got a little angrier and push it a bit more.. turns out I was running faster than I thought the whole time.. I definitely was surprised at my lap times per 400m (which was really 420m) -> each run seemed faster than the lap time stated.- still interesting though .. basically played a game on me mentally

Session: Stretching10:50 PM
- hamstrings/quads/upper
- slight hamstring tendon/muscle issue was probably caused from stretching but, literally just stood with legs spread to stretch adductors slightly and that's what did it.. barely stretched them at all.. stretching my adductors seems to be a curse.
Biosoreness: + stuff from earlier, biceps, right lat, adductors
I AM FUCKIN SORE.. especially hips/glutes.emoji testing, cleaning some of them up:
