Do you take any pre-workout supplements such as NO Explode? If not, you should try it, see what happens.

I don't, and I tend to shy away from those for various reasons. I don't want to become dependent on them to have a good workout. Also, I feel like it's an "artifical" boost that will lead to me burning out faster, because I'm performing better than I could have otherwise.

What I need is something to fix my mental feeling. My muscular system seems fine when I lift. But mentally I feel tired. But hey, I'll give that pre-workout stuff a try! Or maybe I should experiment with just caffeine first?

caffeine is enough for me.. it's always been enough to fix that "mental fatigue", from my experience. I used to add bustello cappuccino mix to milk etc, but that's overdoing it. Simply getting caffeine from something like pure green tea can be a difference maker. I'd try it from a "healthy source" like green tea first, to see if that alone gives you a kick.

pC!

Yep. Super sloppy from both sides at times. Quite odd that Curry still hit some amazing shots but couldn't get some regular (for him) ones down the stretch.

I'm hoping OKC wins but think CLE sweeps TOR and if healthy they take the lot.

ya CLE did damn good against GSW last year with 2 of their ALLSTARS missing.. if CLE is healthy, going to be tough for anyone in the west.

I'd still like to see a GSW/CLE rematch.. both squads healthy. I thought last year CLE would own them, then bang love/kyree out.. even with those guys out, Cleveland was dominating them until Kerr changed up the roster and played small ball.. then it was game over.

last night fell asleep: 2:30 AM
wakeup = 12:30 PM
bw = 150
morning resting heart rate = didn't measure
soreness = none
aches = none
injuries = toenails slightly wrekt, right foot (somewhere around 2nd proximal phalange), right hip flexor (~tendonitis)
standing desk (when on computer): none
feel = good
water = drank alot



Food

12:30 PM

- beet / berry juice
- 2 x wheat bread with peanut butter
- green tea



Session: Evening

5:30 PM

all runs midfoot

runs:
1. ~0.07 mi in ~23s
2. ~0.27 mi in ~1m:28s
3. ~0.22 mi in ~1m:10s
4. ~0.14 mi in ~43s
5. 1.01 mi in 6m:01s -> 1mi split: 6:00 min/mi
- held >= 10mph for 2m:25s, then dropped under 10mph when I lost the form I was trying to hold
- slowed down alot after I stopped breathing in through my nose.. was holding some nice speed while nose-breathing (in), mouth (out)
- 1km: 3m36s
- happy about 1km.. my PR is 3m26s so.. all things considered, good stuff.

right hip flexor super lame after the last run.

right foot felt decent.. i felt it a bit but, nothing sharp.. several hours after running, it still feels decent. It hurts in another area though, which is kind of unrelated.. felt it prior to running when i stepped weird outside heh.



Food

6:30 PM

- 2% milk



Food

9 PM

- several chocolates while waiting for everything to cook
- vegetarian chili soup
- 2 x southwest style egg roll
- mixed nuts
- 2 x corn with butter
- biscotti
- hot mint tea



Session: Stretching

10 PM

- some light stretching, mostly hips via wide squat sitting onto a stool, and just holding it there.. feels good for my hips, they loosen up alot when I relax into that position.
- while watching GSW/OKC game



Session: Activation

12:30 AM - 2 AM

- various holds: more of an 'overcoming' at a joint angle.. not really holding it there, more like actively contracting at some ROM where the joint doesn't want to move anymore
- duration: for as long as possible actually.. so anywhere from ~30s to > 60s
- did a ton of sets..
- right hip flexor felt lame getting into position but then felt fairly decent while holding it

- standing bent leg hip flexion
- standing bent leg hip abduction
- standing straight leg hip abduction
- standing straight leg hip extension
- standing bent leg hip extension



Food

2:30 AM

- 2 x greek yogurt
- grape fruit juice



Session: Ice

- iced hip flexor/adductor
- 2:50 AM - 3:10 AM

- iced right lateral hip
- 3:10 - 3:25 AM



could probably PR my 1 mi run fairly soon.. if I can get healthier, maybe i'll try in ~2 weeks.

probably won't run tomorrow.. right calf might be sore from midfoot running today.. left calf isn't showing any signs that it will be sore. so tomorrow will probably just walk or something.

pC!

OKC on the road!

DAAAAMN.. wtf

Westbrook is quickly becoming my favourite player given his comebacks from poor quarters and halves. Still too many turnovers tho.

ya what a turn-around.. that 3rd quarter was sick.

Great game.. Unfortunately I think the real story is steph's 7 turnovers. Sooo many sloppy passes. It's weird too because OKC started out that way in the first. Then they tightened up.. Then GSW had tons of sloppy plays the rest of the game.

I still think GSW wins the series, but it aint going to be easy.

Hope TOR can heal up a bit for CLE by the time they get home. They need V************** back.

so im off program, ran a 5k yesterday and still have considerable glute/quad/ham/calf soreness - so i decided to go heavy heh


power clean and jerk - 115kg.

 so that's a 5KG PR clean and jerk techincally.. NOT excpected considering knee problems, soreness, ridiculously weak legs due to knees....but i'll take it 9 weeks out from comp!!
120kg x miss - not quite there mentally, was high enough though.






9 weeks out? lots of progress to be made.

good stuff!  :ibsquatting:

Kayla Montgomery runs with MS (multiple sclerosis).. saw this on espn.

<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kpA-FsKLA6A" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kpA-FsKLA6A</a>

that's crazy AF.

was on work experience with a physio/pt who was treating a guy with MS and was still running marathons - not to her level though!

damn..

wonder if such voluminous repetitive exercise delays onset or has basically no effect.. havn't looked into it at all.

Quote
The cause of MS is still unknown – scientists believe the disease is triggered by as-yet-unidentified environmental factor in a person who is genetically predisposed to respond.

^^ that's scary as fuck.. but i could be misinterpreting "unidentified environmental factor in a person".


Stephen Hawking always amazes me when I think about him. To be completely crippled by ALS yet be so important to physics/science, he's got to be one of the most remarkable/beast people who has ever lived.

right foot felt fine today except for one position.

there's one position I can stand in, which is weird and I basically have to force it - that position causes my foot to get quite painful.. it happens when i'm standing straight up, and i flex my right toes of my right foot, basically stretching out the top of my foot.

so might test some short runs tomorrow.

- 2% milk



Session: Activation

12 AM

- standing, alternating straight leg hip extension: 3 x 100 total
-- used alternating arms also.. which turned out to be difficult. I realized i'm used to doing cross-extensor-flexor when focusing on hip flexion, not hip extension.. so it was pretty confusing at first. Since my off leg remains on the ground, I don't get the hip flexion portion.. so my arm didn't want to work.. but it should still work because i'm moving a leg into extension. so this could be useful.

- toe extension/flexion
-- really focusing hard on flexion.. sometimes foot feels like it's going to cramp.. toes don't all work going into flexion, have to focus on it to get them to finally flex more fully.
