Boxing / Jennings v Ortiz - HW Boxing
« on: December 19, 2015, 11:52:57 pm »
really good heavyweight fight..

man Ortiz is impressive. He's huge, serious power, sick counters, cuban slickness, southpaw, excellent conditioning, patience.

love Jennings, sucks to see him get TKO'd so fast when he was holding his own in there.

Bio: Morning

sleep = 8 hours
wakeup = 9 AM
bw = 156 lb  :wowthatwasnutswtf:
morning resting heart rate = forgot to measure
soreness = upper back slightly, hamstrings slightly
aches = right knee slightly, left ankle slightly
injuries = some toe nails



Food

- 1 x greek yogurt
- 1 x orange juice



Session: Afternoon

stayed very light with jumps because of my left ankle feeling tender.

warmup:
- ~20 min
- dribbling, light layups

light jumps:
- ~15 min

moderate jumps:
- ~15 min
- ~10'4 maybe on L-SLRVJ

double leg bounds:
- 8 x 5
- first 2 sets sucked so bad, then got some form back

submax single leg bound practice:
- 5 x baseline-to-half court each leg
- felt way better than last session
- they felt strong/light

S1: dead hang neutral grip pullups:
- BW x 8
- BW x 8

S1: parallel bar dips:
- BW x 8
- BW x 8

S2: dead hang chinups (wide bar, sucked)
- BW x 7

S2: parallel bar dips:
- BW x 6 (last rep paused at the bottom)

S3: dead hang wide grip pullups:
- BW x 4

S3: parallel bar dips:
- BW x 5 (last rep paused at the bottom)

dead hang neutral grip, knee ups:
- 15

pulled up neutral grip, straight leg ups:
- hard, 8

parallel bar straight leg ups:
- 10

45 deg back extension:
- BW @ 2 x 20
- curling back at the bottom, uncoil on the way up
- legs (glutes/hams/calfs/quads) feel soooo good after this



Food

- 1 x chocolate soy milk



Food

- some chocolates
- 1 x greek yogurt
- grape fruit juice



Session: Evening

short run:
- ~3.5 mi
- midfoot/forefoot
- cramped up again! noo! cramped up right at the end of my warmup run.. walked for a few minutes, then ran
- ran "beautifully"
- I felt so good it was ridiculous, just floating, lots of bounce/power.. it could have felt this good because of the bounding / jumping earlier.. i think i'm just getting stronger (and lighter) in general though, so things are going to take shape.
- I kept up a moderate pace just trying to hold onto that feeling the entire run, which I did



Bio: Evening

bw = 157
soreness = hamstrings, glutes
aches = right knee a bit more



Food

- 3 eggs sunny side up sandwich on wheat + gorgonzola.. dipping in hot sauce
- baked beans
- some corn
- a few pieces of chocolate pretzels



Food

- small amount of trail mix




did a nice stretch while watching tv.. kind of sitting back against my couch (on the floor) with feet close and knees fully flexed.. kind of like a completely ATG (literally) squat. felt good.



tmw it's tennis early for an hour or so.. then a big run tmw night + possibly lifting.. then Sunday i'm off, full rest, plus devouring BBQ.. I'd like to jump a bit harder on Monday given that i'll have a complete day's rest (and lots of good protein) the day prior. That should be interesting.

ordered these for the hj shoe experiment:

http://www.eastbay.com/product/model:89731/sku:17645002/nike-zoom-hj-iii-mens/black/grey/?cm=trackandfield_sportpage_redesign

Nike Zoom HJ III



the experiment is to see if these feel good jumping (SLRVJ, bounds) in.. out of all of the shoes I looked at, these are the only ones i'm willing to try the experiment with because of the grip. They look like they have tons of grip & it's a rubber sole soo...

They are 10oz. Compared to my XC flats I jump/run in (4oz), they quite heavy. But they look sturdy and bouncy. I'm optimistic tbh.. They also don't favor a left or right jumper and they seem to accentuate the toe off more (that sprint style forefoot).

We'll see, could be an epic failure with plenty of lol's.

looking alot leaner lately.. need to keep it up and get under 150.



12/17/2015

Bio: Morning

sleep = ~11 hours
- maybe I should start trying to PR how long I can sleep.. bleh!
wakeup = 11:30 AM
bw = 157 lb
morning resting heart rate = forgot to measure
soreness = upper back slightly, calves slightly
aches = none
injuries = some toe nails



Session: Afternoon

12:40 PM - 3:00 PM

run:
- 1 hour 20 minutes (12:40 - 2:00)
- was surprised, thought i'd been running for longer
- felt extremely light and relaxed
- ran purposefully slow, but 20 minutes faster than last time which is interesting
- mostly midfoot and forefoot
-..
- also, caught a cramp ~20 minutes in.. had to actually walked.. was worried this would wreck my whole run, but it didn't come back thankfully.. when I cramp, it's always in my right ribcage.. usually it's hard to recover from. I never try to run through it once it becomes a legit cramp, otherwise it can really wreck me.
- i consider this kind of running basically like walking, except I sweat more.

Food: 1 x gatorade

lifts:
- felt strong
- purposefully staying a bit lighter to remain fresher/safer

very deep barbell squat:
- 155 lb. @ 1, 1
- 175 lb. @ 1, 1
- heels elevated on 25's instead of 10's. feels better than 10's.

close grip semi-sumo deadlift:
- 205 lb. @ 1, 1, 1

barbell curl:
- 85 lb. @ 1, 1, 1



Bio: Post-session

bw = 151 lb.
soreness = glutes, calves
injuries = nipples burning, left nipple scraped up a bit.. nipples hate long running apparently.



Food

- 1 x greek yogurt
- 1 x orange juice



Food

good meal

- grilled chicken breast sandwich (on wheat) with gorgonzola
- saute asparagus, mushroom, potatoes
- black beans with 2 serrano peppers
- a few chocolates


Session: Relax/Mobility

very relaxed hip/knee/upper back rotations
- lower body rotations were closed chain though, both feet on the ground.. so rotating like i'm a hula dancer etc.. felt good after (ankles/hips/upper back etc).



Food

- a quick/nice desert
- fried banana (cooked in butter + salt) with a little bit of honey + 3 small scoops of haagen dazs coffee ice cream
- SOLID!



keep waking up too late.. need to get back on an 11-6 or 11-7 schedule. bleh! so hard because i'm a night person.. need to keep trying though.

going to get off the comp, cold shower, and read.

tmw is probably jumps + bw exercises :F

Yooo, did you have tennis elbow at one point?

i've had it somewhat from playing tennis recently. I used to have elbow issues occasionally when I boxed, but, that was from triceps overpowering biceps. So for that, extra curling/bicep work helped alot. Other than that, icing several times throughout the day is a big help.



Quote
If so just curious how long it took you to rehab it?

Don't remember how long. Currently my elbow occasionally hurts because of tennis, more so after I play tennis. So it's actually tennis elbow. Not playing as much tennis lately has helped it alot.



Quote
I have a pain that just suddenly happened when I unracked the bb for benching this morning, extensions are fine but it aches when I flex the gunz.

damn sucks.

i'd ice the crap out of it and make sure you warmup really good, maybe even an extra hot shower with some direct hot water on the area prior to lifting too.

If you let it subside, ice the hell out of it, and don't re-aggravate it for a few sessions, it could disappear fairly quick.

MSEM with CURLS?! lolllll sounds fun

ya, it is.. :D very fun tbh.

it's nothing new in the grip world, but they don't call anything MSEM etc.. it's just heavy singles. I was into grip long ago, it's a pretty fun type of training; plate curls, pinch grip deadlifts, thick bar work, grippers, all types of curls, farmer's walk/holds, nail bending, sledge hammers.. jaja

pc!
