sub-optimal sleep will obviously affect you but not as much as calorie restrictions. One day of calorie restriction might not be enough to cause too much of an impact, but subsequent days can kill your will to push yourself. Simply don't have any fast burning fuel in the gas tank. For important sessions where you care about your numbers, you have to fuel up (calories + hydration) good the day before.

I have ALOT of experience with calorie depleted sessions (dunking, running, lifting, etc). The real key is to acknowledge it early and not care about the numbers. You can still work on technique and go sub-max to get some work in. But even attempting max effort can be pretty impossible & take much longer to recover from.

I used to love dunking when very hungry.. I'd go without food for 6-8 hours or so (and just drink milk+coffee 30min before) to get this hungry-light-jittery-ampd feeling. However, the day before, i'd eat ALOT. So there are some tricks you can play but legitimate calorie depletion is only going to make you much less powerful.

you probably know that, but just stating it in case. If fat loss is such a primary goal right now, expect extremely zig-zag performance.

pC mutumbo!

promising.

neosporin ftw.

I need to start taking morning HR. When I boxed, it was usually 42-44 when I was completely rested. Don't think it's anywhere near that right now. I used to measure it every morning when I got to "work" (my internship) at this facility that had a cardiac rehab facility. They had some nice toys.

faced off against my mom today while watching jeopardy.. 7-7. lmao :f

once i'm done with this 5k.. it's OPERATION 155. It's absolutely pathetic that i'm still 165. Major failure. I have to be putting in more mileage daily and cutting back on intensity overall.



11/23/2015

sleep = 10 hours
bw = 165
soreness = calves slightly (GRRRR)
aches = right knee slightly, right hip slightly, right elbow slightly
injuries = left 4th finger cut (healing nicely so far though)



REST DAY!!!



Food

- orange juice
- gatorade
- greek yogurt
- 2 x 200mg ibuprofen



Food

- gatorade
- rice and beans with grilled chicken, chopped tomatoes, jalapenos
- 2 pieces of pita bread with butter



Session: "Leg Drain"

- the old school leg drain
- ~10-15m
- weird, barely felt it.. usually my legs start to "tingle" and feel fresh when I get up



Food

- 7 bananas
- 6 egg sandwich with bleu cheese, on wheat
- vegetarian chilli
- 2 x gatorade



Food

- gatorade
- some brookside chocolates.. the blueberry acai ones are good, but these clusters are ridiculous.



Food

- gatorade
- 2 x ibuprofen



interested to see how I run tomorrow.. going to be forcing myself to wakeup at 6 AM, run by 7-730. As soon as I wakeup, it's 3 glasses of gatorade and a "mostly" cold shower. Then a little later it's some jump rope, then run.

Danny garcia will fight robert guerrero on january on pbc but not much detail given.
if robert guerrero brings his aggressive style from the fight he had against berto, his other good fights then he might be a good match against garcia. ruben guerrero vs angel garcia will bring some comedy.

cool. guerrero didn't fight so great against aaron martinez though, so that's a bit concerning for this fight. Guerrero is going to fight Garcia at 140 or 147? I imagine 147.. Garcia trying to get some huge $$ fights, nice.

147 is stacked:

uh-oh, t0ddday is back and calling everyone out on not training hard enough.  :ninja:

nice  :ibsquatting:

No, not really. People should speak after they actually know how you train and know your life, or shut up. You can neg this post all you want, but this is my opinion and in my particular case that shit doesn't apply.

I was just speaking generally.. It reminds me of when I coached at MSC. Everyone was busting ass, training really hard, and in comes Jamie McOwen who would sometimes get under peoples skin by saying we aren't training hard enough, people aren't giving 100% effort etc. He made everyone elevate their game.

Same thing for Bruce Aven (the former MLB player who ran the facility). You could be on the verge of death from training so hard, he'd come in, and make you give so much more. For example, I was training this "minor league" football player who was ~250 lb & Aven was ~220 and barely lifted anymore, and he was trap bar deadlifting around ~505 or something.. So Bruce walks up, no warmup, asks if it was "heavy". No one really knew how to responsd. So he just picks it up like nothing, does a few reps.. drops it.. and goes "nah.. not heavy". Then walks off. Several egos were hurt, but.... People who thought they might be giving 100%, thought to themselves maybe they have been giving 95%.

So i'm saying "nice" from that angle. More of a "group training mindset" where people you train with can make you train harder.

i didn't see it yet but i saw the results..

adarqui :highfive: seifullaah73

i heard the vargas/miuara fight was insane.

 :highfive:
It was insane, what an amazing fight, it was exactly as we predicted.
You definitely need to see it.

Spoiler alert







Cotto was boxing at the beginning throwing combination and was on his feet most of the time, but only a few of his punches would make some sort of impact alot of them canelo could walk through. canelo was finding his rhythm and landing his powerful punches, I knew he was not good on his feet so he was flat footed, but he is powerful and can cut the ring well and can just attack, and I loved his signature move on the night, the left uppercut i think, he would use it all the time. cotto had a good jab but that started to fade as canelo moved forward making it hard for cotto to backup and jab. cotto had moved alot in the fight. I knew it would end up like this, canelo was just getting better and better. Cotto was fading, he had no effective power and man canelo's reflex he would counter so brilliantly and his dodging and weaving at a point when just standing, man canelo was really good and then towards the end of the fight canelo was dominating cotto, roach just never did anything except for just motivate him, no new skills. Last round was action packed, canelo just let loose, cotto moving alot and was hoping for knockout but was happy with the result and the fight.

Canelo should face ggg but i don't think canelo will.

the vargas fight was intense, vargas on first round with the powerful punch that nearly toppled miura, wow the fourth round knockout from miura, he started picking it up and did really well nice combinations and punches. loving the one two punches from miura not very defensive but he is on the offensive alot vargas cannot get to him much. alot of hard hitting from miura not alot of boxing. just hard hitting, wow then vargas caught miura, miura trying to hold on but vargas just letting loose and the match was stopped.

nice! thanks for the recap. can't wait to check out the replay on Saturday.. I think klitchko fights saturday too? I forget.

check out this epic counter/slipping from Canelo:
