aahahah.

I love stairs, so much use for training, box jumps increasing the number steps every time till you reach your limit. stair runs.

I right now use it as to increase explosiveness in my sprint start by placing my front leg in a sprint start on the step and as quickly and as powerful as possible explode up using the front leg and reach a certain step.

nice!

yea i used to love running stairs.

used to run them a ton when i worked at memorial sportscenter, we were in a hospital complex which had 6 flights at the parking garage. even with only 6 flights, such a good workout.

he's detaching for a while.

sounds like he has too much "baggage" attached to running.. definitely can take the purity/enjoyment out of it.

sounds kind of wrecked in this vid.

sux :/

i have water in my ear right now, from pool life. so annoying. ;f

last 3 days: 145 lb.

eating: very clean/good, also with chopsticks.




08/18/2019:

10:00 AM: yard work (~4hr) /// more push mower lyfe
- https://www.strava.com/activities/2630653495
- lost well over 10 lb of water. by the end of the 4 hours, with a gallon of water hydration throughout, i was still -9 lb than in the morning when i woke up.
- that's nuts..
- that push mower really gets you drenched hah.


08/19/2019:

10:00 PM: swim: 35-40min
- non stop swimming (something to stay afloat and move around), while constantly throwing dog toys.
- was pretty tough by the end. didn't feel that bad until i actually went to get out of the pool, then felt kinda lightheaded/weird.. body wasn't used to that kind of exercise.



08/20/2019:

08:00 PM: light swim: 24min afloat ::: did double this yesterday.
- https://www.strava.com/activities/2636954569/overview
- easier than yesterday but fatigued a bit in the shoulders/arms
- feels really good
- back/hips/legs/body feels really loose after.. kinda of mobility-ish.

wore my watch to see if i could get any good data. seems like it ignores HR for swimming. odd. maybe it can't measure in the water. HR was ~80ish throughout, so probably inaccurate. but prior to going in, standing/walking HR was 84 soo..





first tracked swim workout hah!





pizza from last weekend:

8/20/19

Haven't journaled much lately, workouts have been haphazard.  Taking a break from the ATG stuff, the KOT squats aggravated my knee,

ah damn that sucks about the knee.

and I want to add in more jumping into my workouts.  Just ordered 'applied sprint training' by James Smith the other day.  About 1/4 of the way through it.  Good explanation of Charlie Francis type workouts, but it's a tough read.  Also just got 'speed strength' by Joel Smith, gonna start on that one next.

I really need to focus on my lower leg (foot/ankle/calf) strength and elasticity, aerobic conditioning and shoulder health.  Started a high/low type set up yesterday, so we'll see how it goes.

BW:  didn't weigh

Workout 1:

Warmup:  marches, skips, high knees....forward and backward

Was planning on a few short sprints afterward, but achilles felt tight, so did some ~30 meter buildups instead

Hi/lo pogo jumps
Med ball chest pass
2/1 pogo jumps
Rotational med ball throws

Squat 3x2
Incline Bench 3x3

ATG ankle exercise
Shoulder dislocates

Workout 2:

SL stand
ISO pushup
ISO BSS
Scap pullup
ISO calf

i remember James Smith on CF forums, smart guy, also very combative iirc. hah.

A webpage with short video.. contributed to what i had done for the pass 12 yrs...
