WORKOUT.

9/7/2010

bw = 157
soreness = nowhere
aches/injuries = left shin a little, left achilles/heel a little, left lower back a little




workout #1: dunks/jumps
- for pictures of the jumps check here: http://www.adarq.org/forum/progress-journals-experimental-routines/adarq%27s-journal/msg14792/#msg14792
- got up pretty good, was surprised.. didn't land any dunks though, my throws were way off for the most part


workout #2: running/strength
- bleh! it was pouring, had to run with a raincoat "hoody", like a windbreaker.. poured even more when i was squatting, like major rain storm heh.. feels refreshing though.
- 3.9 mile run, slow/relaxed
- half squat: 45 @ 4 x 5 / 135 @ 1,1 / 185 @ 1,1 / 225 @ 1 / 245 @ 1 / 265 @ 1
- hit 265 for a single @ 152 lb bw, 1.75xBW.. felt good but definitely starting to get heavy..
- planned on hitting four singles with 245 after, but just raining too hard
- glute bridges @ 4 x 30, 2 x 50

lookin lean.....well I doubt you need to pay attention to the "low T" commercials lmao  :o

thnx mang!! heheh

my T is pretty high i'd bet, but regardless of T, i have some genetic predispotion to being a skinny stick, i probably have ridiculous amounts of myostatin.

"Myostatin (also known as growth differentiation factor 8) is a secreted TGF beta protein family member that inhibits muscle differentiation and growth. Myostatin is produced primarily in skeletal muscle cells, circulates in the blood and acts on muscle tissue, by binding a cell-bound receptor called the activin type II receptor.[1][2] In humans, myostatin is encoded by the MSTN gene.[3]

Animals lacking myostatin or animals treated with substances such as follistatin that block the binding of myostatin to its receptor have significantly larger muscles.[4]"



i am a myostatin producing machine :)

ahhh.. nice..

btw if negative leg curl feels weird, just replace it with some moderate weight rdl's.

pc

I'll keep that in mind.

Phase III Day 22 (9/6/2010, Monday): Labor day's got me out of the weight room. Decided beach volleyball with some friends was enough for the day.

Phase III Day 23 (9/7/2010, Tuesday): Yesterday I started feeling pretty sick. Full blown cold today, energy is drained. Diet is greatly improved over the last few days though. Meals are more consistent. I've settled for doing a couple sets of one-armed pushups and pistol squats throughout the afternoon kind of like the Naked Warrior by Pavel describes. Towards the night I'll probably try to work on getting handstands down now that my shoulder is better (for the most part)

Thought I might share some of these with you guys. Let me know what you think.

http://www.beastskills.com/ This one has some sweet tutorials I've been looking at.

http://www.dragondoor.com/articler/mode3/232/ <--- pretty awesome in general.


 

ya i occasionally frequent both of those sites, beastskills is real nice.. LBSS actually knows the guy who runs it i think.

7 September 2010

Conditioning/recovery workout:

- Weight@session : ~192,5
- Injuries/aches : The squatting right=hip pain , like 1/5
- Soreness:
Calves : 0/5
Hamstrings: 0/5
Quads : 1/5
VMO : 2/5
Glutes : 3/5 , paused BSS FTW! :D


ya man, paused unilaterals are very good at destroying the glutes, i love them.


Quote
- 15 mins light jog

- 3 mins rest

-10x80m sprints
Was about 50% , 25sec run / 35 sec rest , very springy.

- 3 mins rest

C1: 40m sprint @ ~50%
C1: 10 x MR tuck jumps
C1 info : 5 rounds , rest between rounds = 1 minute.

nice complex!@$!

Quote
Had my heart rate monitor on , interesting stuff:
-Heart rate during light jog : ~140 , 150 on slight uphills , 130 on slight downhills
-Heart rate after 80m sprints : 165 to 170
-Heart rate after 40m sprints + MR tuck jumps : 175 to 180
-Heart rate after all 3 min breaks : 115

- 7 Days Vertical Jump Cure routine.
- My usual lower body stretch routine.


interesting info, i need to get a battery for my heart rate monitor.. it's interesting how tiring MR tuck's are.. i mean, they really kill everyone.. i feel more tired doing 10-15 MAX tuck jumps than if i did a 60-80 yard sprint etc.. so your data seems to fit how I feel also.

peace man!

how'd you spell out your email address?

Guy paddled over and pointed his camera at me, and I spelled it out to the camera.

imagine if he was like some psychopathic serial killer and now he's going to hunt you down, because in his twisted mind he thinks you pooped in the canal and destroyed some wildlife.

shit.


In your dreams, adarq.

No, really, I mean that.

ya, sounds like something i'd dream about.. hehe

dunno if it looks gay or not, but ive seen changes in running form just from the drills done properly + drills taken into a run + 'technical runs'.....combine that with actual muscle strenghtening/preparation for your event and you will get some nice form

ya i've found those technical drills to be beneficial as well, when i do very light sprints while focusing on pulling the ground, my sprint technique changes for the better, get more glute/hip extension.

Thanks for the replies guys...

To answer the questions you asked....

How fatigued i feel depeneds on the session, if its just shooting ill be fine to do more, if were doing full court fast break stuff then im going to be pretty wiped out.

Quote
Nutritionally - no ive never done the protein shake in practice, but can always start doing the gatorade stuff, i think the shake would probably make me sick haha

ya i thought so too when i boxed, but I would bring a gatoraid shake, like 16 oz mixed with nearly 1 scoop of protein (24g), mixed with 1.5-2 scoops of gatoraid powder, in water.. take half a swig of that shake and I was full of energy again, no cramping either.. you'd be surprised how effective it is during long bouts of work such as in a basketball practice etc... just try it out during your long practices, such as:
- 2 hour practice: half shake at 1 hour
- 3 hour practice: 1/3rd of shake every hour

of course drink your water too, not saying all you should down is that shake.


Quote
Deadlifts - These are my fav exercise, im built for them much more than squats (long arms, short torso), usually i dont get too much lowerback soreness from them.

ok well that's cool then, include them, just don't go balls to the wall for at least the first week, on any lift for that matter.. week 1 = break in mode.

Quote
Powercleans - i agree, wont be including them on second thoughts.

nice..

Quote
Unilateral - the reason i included these on the light day was more towards prehab than strength building, i read somewhere they are good for ankle strength etc

they are good for everything, vmo, ankles, glutes etc.. i'd give them a little more focus than prehab.

Quote
Oh yeah, one more thing i wanted to include was prehab stuff, core ankle and shoulder, but this isnt really stressing so i think i can throw it in anywhere as long as i dont hit the abs to hard.

ya that stuff isn't really relevant in terms of managing fatigue, can throw that in anywhere.

Quote
And at the moment Basketball > Strength

Oh yeah, i will have one rest day, either saturday OR sunday...depending on when the game is.

So i think ill go with a mixture of both of your suggestions...

I like the idea of the light day for bodyweight pushups/pull ups/etc

Anyway, ill see how it goes and then decide on volume/frequency etc after ive experinced a full week of basketball.

Thanks again







nice! np man, hope we've been of help.

peace!

I agree with what ardaqui said about the nutrition, work-out timing and also the deadlift, although in my experience one work-set per week is not too much and more often than not the squats are more draining. But if you are a naturally good deadlifter, unlike me, the neural fatigue and lower back stress might indeed be too much to handle.

There is also some truth about the powerclean being not that useful for someone who is essentially doing power work every day of the week. But even then I would still use it, albeit on maintenance mode. This will make transitioning into off-season training a lot easier, especially since the powerclean is a rather technical lift.

ya i agree here, if he did powerclean as more of a maintenance lift then it would be fine.. i would just advise against trying to PR or anything after such long basketball sessions etc, but you're right, maintenance work it would be fine.


Quote
Again, making gains in strength and power might be possible for some weeks if a lot of the other variables are taken good care off. I don't think, given the circumstances, that it would be wise to try and prioritize strength increases right now, unless the situation is that you don't get much play time anyway because of lagging behind in the athletics department. Then you might just as well get stronger asap, so that this might change soon enough. But if you got to be performing at your best come game time, your situation, as it is, is already bad enough. Doing your maintenance strength work and concentrate on your performance on the field would then probably be the wisest decision.
