Boxing / Re: Miguel Cotto vs Canelo Alvarez - 11/21/2015
« on: November 21, 2015, 03:04:59 pm »
It seems like a big fight, they say it's the next biggest fight after mayweather pacquaio, probably but by a long shot, it's no where near may-pac, I didn't feel the hype of this fight that much compared to may-pac.

I think because cotto defeated martinez, who had a bad knee, which I think martinez in his prime would have demolished cotto and then cotto faced delvin and geale at catch weights, this has made cotto's head big, as you correctly mentioned, that does not show me cotto has a chance against canelo, cotto is good, he had a good sparring session. He hit's hard, but a boxer who moves will give him problem, like austin trout, bad loss for cotto.

Canelo on the other hand, in my opinion, has been progressing nicely, especially the knockout of kirkland, his fight against mayweather was really bad, he just was slow, even though they were training him to be fast, so I don't think he will have speed but he does have the angles, like when he fought lopez, he was really good.

So this is a good match up, I think canelo will win, but not knockout, cotto does fall easy.

Canelo UD12

GGG is probably too big and won't come down and canelo won't move up, so canelo will have to vacate.

Soreness: right quad,glutes
Weight: 65.05kg
Time: 10:35 - 12:45
Condition: Icy cold wind, hands freezing, very windy: medium/high wind, did I mention it was Icy winds at high speeds. It had rained previously so the track was wet. I would wear a jumper, but my hands in the pocket did not keep my hand warm. So was happy to go inside.

Warm up
   a walk, skip and run x 2 x 20m
   hip mobility leg swings
   standing iliopsoas stretch

Workout
   60m sprints with head wind medium/high
     1. 8.75   Left lead leg   
     2. 8.75   Right Lead leg
     3. 8.72   Left Lead leg
     4. 8.84   Right Lead leg
   
   Result: my worse times ever, quads a little sore
 
   Ankle hops 2 x 8
   Tuck jumps 2 x 8
   
   Went to gym, a lot of windows, so even though there is sun shining, there is also icy winds, so it was inside the gym with sun shining inside.
   
   Mobility and activation stretches

   BSS
      1. 0kg x 3
      2. 20kg x 3
      3. 35kg x 1 x 6  - it was a little struggle and because my quads were a little sore I decided to drop the weight down
      4. 30kg x 2 x 6 - nice and easy

    SLRDL
       1. 0kg x 3
       2. 30kg x 3 x 6

Cool down Stretches
   general lower body stretch
   walk back - as soon as i step out I realize it was still icy cold wind outside, as it was warm inside.

Comment
The quads became a little sore after the sprints and was tough as it was very cold and I was running into a strong head wind. But happy to get the gym work in order.

Soreness: quads, glutes, hamstring
Weight: 65.25kg

Condition: Raining, wet track. Windy from the side to the front. Had a meeting with a colleague for 2hrs, so I had 1 hr to do the workout track and gym.

Warm up - No rest between
   A walk, skip & run x 2 x 20m
   Leg swings x 10 each leg

Workout
   60m sprints - windy from side and front, reduced the rest time between runs because of short of time.
      1. 8.37   Left leg
      2. 8.25   Right Leg
      3. 8.24   Left Leg
      4. 8.21   Right leg

   1 x ankle hops x 8
   1 x tuck jumps x 8

   Activation and mobility drills (single leg glute bridge, toe reach, toe reach with bent knee, calf mobility stretch)
   
   Legs mildly sore.
   30mins left
   
   BSS - was going to be difficult to lift 35kg, 3 sets in short time and with sore legs so I chose to do 25kg. a few seconds rest between sets, 1 min rest for last set.
     - 0kg x 5 each leg
     - 25kg x 3 x 6,7,8 (6 on first set, 7 on second set, 8 on third set)

   RDL single leg - a few seconds rest between sets.
     - 0kg x 5 each leg
     - 25kg x 3 x 6,7,8
   
Cool down
    stretch then finish
    walk back

Comment: Not happy with the times I got, I thought I ran fast but it wasn't fast enough, but there was constant progress throughout the reps. Finished the workout a few minutes over. But got back in time for the second meeting. The workout was very tiring, the BSS I rested for a few seconds between sets until the last set, 1 min rest just to get my breath back. Same with RDL, tried to have a few seconds rest. A very tiring workout, not heavy but tiring.

Don't use 5 minutes, use 2, or at worse 3. Don't even think of telling me about full recovery etc. No discussion here, max 3 minutes rest from now on, for ever and ever in the gym, whatever reps or sets or exercise you do.

No arguments from me.  :-X
Will do.

Yes, it is all fine man, not mocking or yelling at you, just trying to get you to do it right.
Sometimes when you don't have time it is fine. But even then, if you ask me, do the so-called drop-set. That means almost no rest and use half the weight, do as many reps as you can. So if no time for a proper rest third set ( like 2-3 minutes or whatever you use ) drop down the 35kg DBs, pick up 18-20kg DBs and do as many reps as you can with each leg, should be around 15.

I know you weren't mocking or yelling.
I like the idea you stated. So let's say I realize I won't be able to complete my workout of 3 sets, do 2 sets and then straight away do as much as I can at 20kg as much reps as I can, I can do that. I use 5 mins rest between sets.

LOL, look at my post that you quoted, i said that maybe some days you can not UP the weight, never did i say to skip sets.

Quote from: vag on November 11, 2015, 01:28:30 pm
Sometimes though, you gotta hear your body, if 2nd set with 35kg was a struggle, it is not your day to up for the third, even if previous time you did 3x6 easier.

On the contrary, look how many times i tried to ephasize to you NOT TO CUT SETS:

Quote from: vag on October 31, 2015, 04:46:27 pm
From the next time you go to the gym and FOREVER, do at least 3 sets that consist of at least 6 reps for each leg.

Quote from: vag on November 02, 2015, 05:14:11 am
You got that right. NEVER sacrifice form/ROM over weight. The exercise is BSS, not half BSS, you have to execute it properly at legit ROM.
Also don't cut sets/reps short like you did in the past. Like doing 6-4-4 or 6-6. Do 3 sets of 6 good reps. Better to go a bit too light than too heavy on the beginning.
If i were you i would go back to 35, if you can do 3x1 with 40kg i doubt you will do 3x6 with 37,5kg. Reset yourself, go to 35 or 32,5, then advance from a solid base.

    BSS @ 0kg x 5, 20kg x 6 easy, 37.5kg dumbells x 2 x 6 each leg
     
   Single leg romanian deadlift 0kg x 5, 37.5kg x 2 x 6

:ffffffuuuuuu:


Quote from: vag on November 04, 2015, 05:11:50 am
That is it, you have to be patient.  Don't improvise, don't cut set, don't cut reps, don't add too much weight, don't do half reps.
Follow the above plan TO THE LETTER and be sure you will thank me later. Well not me, i didn't invent progressive overloading, i am just trying to teach it to you right ;)

This is 4 posts in the last 20 days about not cutting sets, plus another one encouraging you to stay consistent with it the only time you got it right.
And you go to gym and skip sets again.
Give me a break.
 8)

I misunderstood what you said. But now it makes sense.
but there will be time where I will skip a set because I do not have enough time to do 3 sets for it but if I do have time I will certainly do it.

drop weight and do the third set. time under tension is important.

Oh I see.

So something like, 2 x 6 @35kg if struggle do third set  32.5kg x 1 x 6
if less struggle do 2 x 6 @35kg then 1 x 6 @ 37.5kg.

Thanks.

Why did you skip the third sets once again?

I thought from what you said:

Sometimes though, you gotta hear your body, if 2nd set with 35kg was a struggle, it is not your day to up for the third

If 2nd set was a struggle, I do not have to attempt third set. Also ran out of time.

Soreness: right quad a little
BW: 64.3kg

Condition: wet track, wind from side low/medium. My quads feel healed from the sprain I had on tuesday.

Warm up
   same

Workout
  reverse calf raises

  60m sprints alt lead leg, stand start
     1. 8.19   Left Lead leg   Wind from side - Rusty, little pain in my body during run to get the muscles loosened up nothing to worry about, just rust.
     2. 7.97   Right Lead leg  Wind from side  - felt much better
     3. 8.00   Left lead leg - so annoying I click the button but when I stop running I see it is still running 9,10,11, so I am going to assume it was probably around 7.9 to 8.1
     4. 8.21   Right Lead leg - such a let down.

   Ankle hops 2 x 8
   Tuck Jumps 2 x 8
   
   BSS
     - 0kg x 3
     - 20kg x 5
     - 35kg x 2 x 6 - it was quite easy for my right leg until the last rep, then went onto the left leg straight away, which was a bit struggle, towards the 3rd rep, then on the second set it was quite amount of struggle.

   Single Leg Romanian Deadlift
     - 0kg x 3
     - 35kg x 2 x 6  - some struggle so decided to not attempt 3rd set also time was running out quickly.

    It was comfortable as my quad was nice and a little fresh after the running, so the lifts were nice and controlled, just need to focus on controlling motion more, contract core and other muscles throughout movement sometimes I lose the focus and drop the weight.

Cool down
   stretch (quads, hamstring, calf)
   walk back

Mixed Martial Arts / Rousey vs holm (spoiler alert)
« on: November 15, 2015, 10:44:10 am »
Wow didn't expect that, ronda was getting hit a lot as holm was moving alot. Rousey was chasing alot and started becoming careless she woud get hit while chasing. Then she would stumble or fall and that set up for the KO kick from holm and the end to the match.

I bet floyd is just itching to get on twitter to insult her.

Yes, since you completed 3x6@35kg at the previous workout you had to up the weight at last set as we planned. Sometimes though, you gotta hear your body, if 2nd set with 35kg was a struggle, it is not your day to up for the third, even if previous time you did 3x6 easier. But ok, let's say you had to up the weight at the third set. Why use 40 when you have 37,5? That makes no sense at all. Increments in weight should be the smallest possible.

Think of this, classic example, if you advance 2,5 kg per MONTH , in 1.5 years you will have advanced... 45kg!!! Don't be impatient and ruin progress, make small steps, let it happen gradually. You would have served yourself MUCH better at that last set if you did 5-6 reps with 35kg or 3-4 reps with 37.5kg than 1 with 40kg that you did.

No big deal though, next time ;)

Thanks

I completed 3 x 6 at 35kg, which means I will move up to 37.5kg and struggle and not make 3 x 6, then I would have to go back, isn't this repetitive and how does one progress from this.

Um...

Quote from: seifullaah73 on November 11, 2015, 11:54:49 am
Can't I just do 37.5kg 3 sets of as much as I can do until when I reach 6 reps then progress to 40kg.

Yes!

Great, thanks for confirming this.

also,

why.

the fuck.

not only you added weight while you struggled in the first two sets.

but you also went to use 40s from 35s while you have 37.5s available too.

I decided to use your recommended method of 2 x 6 for 35kg then 1 set of 40kg. I did mention previously I had access to 37.5kg.

Quote from: LBSS on November 10, 2015, 05:31:38 pm
why.

the fuck.

did you do 2x6.

struggle.

and then add weight.

I thought this was the progression after being able to do 3 x 6 @35kg to progress to 40kg.

But I was wrong, but I don't understand something, I completed 3 x 6 at 35kg, which means I will move up to 37.5kg and struggle and not make 3 x 6, then I would have to go back, isn't this repetitive and how does one progress from this. Can't I just do 37.5kg 3 sets of as much as I can do until when I reach 6 reps then progress to 40kg.

Also I sprained my rectus femoris near the top, so will miss tomorrows workout.
