bw = 155
soreness = none
aches/injuries = feel good amazingly, everywhere
fatigue = low
diet = prot shake, 4 bananas + cheeseburger, 4 bananas + prot shake, prot shake + 2 bananas + PB burrito
prot shakes are mostly from now on going to use 2% milk, not whole.. no need for whole with this protein in it, protein makes it taste great.. should be interesting to see if i lose some lbs just off that.
workout: resting
- prone rev hypers: 5 x 50, strong glutes damn wtf beastin.
vid editing crap all day, it's consuming my life, i didn't even like the vids i was making but whatever, the rendering process kills my comp and takes forever sheeeeeit.
planning to dunk indoors tmw, gona do it big.

ratio it for now, for example: strength:msem = 2:1
that means, keep your current workouts for 2 sessions in a row then hit a msem session.. you could rotate through that a few times, 2-4 times etc.
MSEM session would be something like this:
warmup
reactive work
power work
MSEM squat: 2 x 4-8 @ 90%, 5min rest between sets, ~30s rest between reps.. you can use the normal MSEM prescriptions in the performance blog article, but, 8 rep clusters feel pretty good, second set could always be 4 reps.
anyway you'd cut the workout there, protein shake + stretch.. that session should give you some nice 'stim' for 2 days or so.
peace man

« on: December 24, 2010, 06:01:30 am »Vacation starts tomorrow. Gonna be in NYC, then Connecticut and upstate(ish) NY, where my mom's family is. Home on the 27th. While gone it's gonna be nonstop visiting, but I'm going to try to get some workouts in for general conditioning. E.g. Ross Enamait's deck of cards. Possibly even jumping rope if my uncle's basement ceiling is high enough. At least, gonna get some good stretching in. Hopefully by next Tuesday my hip will be back in working order and I can get back to the real business of trying to put a leather-and-rubber ball through a metal hoop ten feet off the ground.
squat your GF for reps, deadlift your GF for reps, curl your GF for reps, floor press your GF for reps.
bam
The logic in that is so far beyond brilliant that I can't even begin to describe how genius that is.

well, ward did ko that guy with a liver punch in real life lol, those boxing scenes were "true to the true story".. but ya i feel you, the actual fight scenes with whalberg could have been much improved.. don't know why they weren't better.

forgot to link this yesterday.. dunks from a few days back on the "zeus rim"
20 reps is the best number of reps for fatiguing pretty much every muscle group, including the quads.. by 20 reps my quads, hamstrings, and glutes are toast.. if i do max 10RM's my quads don't get hit nearly as hard.. 20 reps makes me feel great too, so much blood flow.
thanks alot man, i have a feeling tomorrow is going to be alot better, hope so..
peace!
What's the thing with 20 rep sets? I mean, I know that's for added volume and stuff, but why 20 reps?

i was pretty surprised about the last dunk, maybe soon the nba will have a good dunk contest since 2000
ya that was a good showing.. nba dunk contest is doomed though, whoever is in charge of organizing that is a complete retard.. i heard someone from nba sprite contest is going to get voted into the nba contest though, this year, that true?

BW dropped to a consistent 68kg, give or take 0.5kg
nice vid, just throwing your bodyweight around easy, good relative strength..
why you hunched over though? you were gassed after those dips or what?
nah wasnt me i think, always just did squats as prescribed by you.
was only thinkin of doing it cos of the ankle, dun think i can squat properly, but i wanted to work my jumping involved muscles abit, hence the RDL interest...
as long as it isn't bugging your ankle badly, go for it, it would be good if you could do something to help keep some lower body strength while recovering from this injury, RDL fits well.
