as a non-boxing fan i have to say, this may be the first time i ever PPV a fight. i don't care that they're both old and past their prime. go pacquiao.

nice! i'm def ordering it. I've ordered the last 6+ floyd ppv's though 8|

IMO, they are both barely past their prime though.

pbf has been in top form for quite a while, schooling young fighters like maidana/canelo etc. PBF's reflexes are still sooo fast. His counters and lead shots are blazing. He just lacks that KO power at 147.

Pac has been up and down his whole career. He was much more wreckless when he was 'younger' and he suffered some serious damage in fights, including his 4th fight KO vs marquez. He's been cautious in his recent fights but his speed/conditioning/skill is still there.

pC!

bw = 178

ng pullups: BW @ 7

WEIGHT: 175.5
SORENESS: hamstrings
ACHES/INJURIES: right ankle but only at extreme end ROM, inverted and plantar flexed; right thumb
MENTAL STATE: good

- warm up

- DLRVJ walk out @3/step; four-step x 3; couple of SLRDL/side
all submax by definition because no reach, but the four-step jumps felt bouncy. glute activation ftw.

- rudiment hops

- squat MSEM 315 x 3; paused 225 x 8
315 very solid and smooth

- superset x 2
-- DB OHP 50s x 8
-- pull up x 8
-- assisted natural GHR x 8

- stretch

not a bad workout.

ya looks like a nice w/o. good stuff with the MSEM.

really good fights last night.

Thurman looked VERY good. Man he hits so hard, incredible how tough guerrero was to take those shots. At the end Thurman started looking a bit tired, it seemed to happen after he stood in there on the ropes and did some in fighting, which was a bad move. He should have gotten the hell out of there. Looks like he either got hurt or tired after that situation.

Other than that though, guy is a beast.



Garcia/Peterson and Lee/Quillen on the next nbc prime time boxing... epic!

mostly unrelated, posting here so i can read later:

03/06/2015

bw = 181
soreness = calfs

3.4 mi run: ok
ng pullups: 7
pushups: 30


03/07/2015

bw = 179
soreness = calfs

jump rope: ~5 minutes
3.4 mi run: ok but slow




been running pretty slow lately.. ever since i wrecked my calfs i havn't been able to turn up the speed.. but, i'm also trying to run differently so that's definitely a contributing factor. I can just go back to heel->toe but, I am making some progress on trying to go mid/forefoot so, just need to keep it up.. eventually, if I can maintain the same effort that I can with heel->toe, i'll be running MUCH faster.. just can't bounce with heel->toe.

So when do you know you reached lactic acid threshold? Is it a matter of distance, intensity or both? Do you feel it, or do you just know it from the numbers? Is it that burn that spreads in your quads while you put effort? ( this is so very familiar in prolonged non-stop skiing downhills ).
I like to get into running again now that the weather improves. But i am not into long distances, i like to do a mile at ~80%, and then either tempos ( something like 10-15x100m ) or max sprints ( about 5 max-out runs, distances varying from 80m to 300m ). But a longer run seems interesting too for aerobic fitness and fat loss, just don't want it to have any consequences at recovery and endurance muscle fiber adaptations. Is 5K at a moderate pace 'safe'?

hey vag, sorry for the late reply.. so ya basically like you and LBSS about the burn. When you hit lactic threshold, lactic acid starts to accumulate: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lactate_threshold. So, it's more a matter of intensity than duration.

Would be nice to have all of my notes/research to back up whether short distance runs are not detrimental to strength/power or not. But basically, they would be detrimental if you made them your primary training focus; every day with less of a focus on strength/power training. If you are getting in a 5k run 3-5x/week, it will have positive effects on body composition/general fitness like you mentioned, so that's a plus. As long as you are getting in your strength/power training, you are not very likely to see significant endurance adaptations to your muscle fibers. That's why 5k a few times a week is good, it's not 'enough' to cause serious adaptations which benefit endurance events; type IIa/b to I fiber transformation etc. You're still hitting those intermediate/fast fibers with more of a stimulus with your strength/power training, so the volume of your distance work is not enough to cause a shift. I used to walk for ~1-2 hours alot back when i dunked, helped me get much leaner and made me feel really good. ~2 hour walks are a pretty significant slow twitch stimulus. If anything, the walking helped my vert more than hurt it. Was a great way to burn some fat, clear my head, relax, drop some water weight, recover cns, etc. ha.

Maybe we should start thinking about it like, "If it feels like a real event instead of an extended warmup, then it's maybe a bit too long of a run." So maybe 1.5mi (~2.5k) etc would be better to start with etc. Eventually 5k should feel fairly easy. For example, if I go outside and warmup for a few minutes then do pushups/pulups, I perform much worse than if I go run ~5k and then do pushups/pullups etc. I feel really loose and ready to go after my 5k runs. If I run for > 1 hour I don't want to do pullups/pushups -> it's too long of an event and that's where the anti power adaptations will really occur.

Give it a try! Just keep an eye on it and really try to see how you feel during your lifting sessions. I imagine you might even feel better with a bit more fitness work. Vert always enjoys body composition changes.

You can also mix in some sprints during your 5k.. it's extremely difficult I think, but feels really good when you do it. It's basically like sprint->walk, instead, it's sprint->light jog. I wouldn't do that for a while though.

pC!

what did castillo do differently, that people always refer to this fight that gave mayweather the most problems.

i forget, i'll have to rewatch it. i remember it being very close tho, the first fight.



Manny pacquiao training day 4 - He looks amazingly fast, which what he needs more than power, which he naturally has to defeat mayweather

<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EfED2iwSnOc" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EfED2iwSnOc</a>

Mayweather is also training like usually does.

niice!@!

mayweather all day.. I love how he hits the heavy bag, slow as fuck. I have my ideas as to why he does it but i'd eventually like to know for sure, hardly anyone hits a heavy bag like he does. You never see him going nuts at the heavy bag.

pac loves to go nuts at the heavy bag, without bringing his hands back defensively.. ;f

Exactly what i was thinking why he hits it slow but my idea is that probably he is doing it not for power but for form and combination practice and maybe doesn't want to risk injuring his hands ...
