LanceSTS Suggested me to check out this site from TVS.

I spend a good 3 hours reading here and there...
i got to say.. I am not learning much.. things seems much more complicated where where i was coming from (Term Vert, TVS)

however.. i think i should take the time to learn something new... i had spend enough time training with what i already know...

I should train with a more detailed scientific method.  I hope to get that here :)

(btw, i notice many people have accounts here as well as in TVS... and most people post journal over in TVS, I did kept a long history of journal over in TVS and probably wont move around.   I also notice KellyB posted quite a bit of message here as well .. is their any connection bettween the 2 sites? )



hey man! welcome! glad you came over, and appreciate lance mentioning it.

there's no real connection between here & TVS, the only connection is plenty of the users and myself.. I support TVS 100% even though I have this forum, and I still advertise TVS in videos etc..

kellyB doesn't post a ton of messages, but when he does they are usually very helpful & of course really solid information.

I've followed your training for quite some time, I think one of the main issues with your training is you havn't really figured out how you respond to training, you're always asking others (coaches etc) for all kinds of techniques etc.. It is my opinion that you should really learn how to peak, but in order to do that, you need to perform a GPP of at least 1 month, then transition it into a strength block, then a power block.. during the GPP, you'd be focusing on really getting in excellent shape, lifting for volume, jumping quite frequently, etc.. during the strength block, you'd be focused on really pushing your strength up while introducing things like REA squat/depth jumps at lower intensities, to set yourself up for the power block.. a conditioning element + jumping would still exist in the strength block.. during the power block, the idea would be to really get rid of fatigue and keep the intensity high on squat/lunge/dj/rea squat, helping to stimulate PR jump sessions.

so right there you'd be looking at a 3 month phase.. jumping gains could come anywhere to be honest, but you're mostly looking at PR's during strength and peaking phase.

improve conditioning / work capacity -> improve strength + special strength -> reduce fatigue + keep intensity high + make sure all power sessions are performed at peak recovery (and stim) -> repeat at a higher level

peace man

Nah, man. If you're rolling, keep it rolling!


word. most people respond better to high freq shit. and vag, its not like ur playing 2hrs of a sport. everything u do is vert focused so ur programming is perfect right now


x2 :D


Hmmm... 3/3 , and from 3 different training personalities... OK guys , ill keep it up! :D

On a sidenote :
My natural approach would be to train every day all day. I hate rest days , and i feel the eager to go out and run or lift or jump every single day. My work capacity is also very good , or maybe insane:
Back in the day , when i was ~25 i would work out 4 times a week doing this:
- 4km run or 45 mins aerobics
- Weights , 5 excercises 4x8 fashion
- 500 reps core ( abs+low back )
- 1km swimming
Workouts lasted ~3hours, LOL.
And i was fresh at each workout , did this shit for ~2 years!!!

But those joints and muscles get rusty , they get tired more easy and they need more time to recover . Its hard to explain it , you can only feel it...
Its a need now to have in mind/plan recovery too...


I actually have an article planned and that is one of the topics.. our mindsets on training growing up in our developmental years through adulthood has a huge impact on how we have become as athletes.. those marathon session just aren't good for power, and people like you and I just can't "rest" we have to train so hard, day in day out, or we don't "feel complete" or "feel like we've done enough".. that mindset is great for conditioning, endurance, etc, but not for power..

so it's funny how our mentalities shaped our training process which shaped the way our bodies produce force :D

peace!

I smoked some salvia before, it provided a very enlightening couple of hours for me.
This part only lasted ~10 minutes

Nutrition & Supplementation / Re: Pre/Post workout Supplements
« on: July 01, 2010, 05:22:16 pm »
What is everyone taking for pre/post workout supplements, if at all? Right now i am doing this:

1st half of training: 1/2 serving of biotest surge workout fuel with 24g whey
2nd half of training:1/2 serving of biotest surge workout fuel.
Immediately after training: 50g whey
1-1.30h after - Post workout meal with 50g protein and 50-80g carbs

Will throw in a serving of surge recovery and 12g whey before heavy squats. Like dong this as i have tons of energy and i am able to maintain/increase strength while dropping fat slowly.

During my bodybuilding days i have done this with great results in strength and size:

30 mins before: 2 scoops of biotest surge workout fuel
15 mins before: 2 scoops biotest surge recovery
During: 1 scoop of biotest surge recover + 12g of whey
Immediately after: 50g whey
1-1.30h after - Post workout meal with 50g protein and 50g carbs.

I thought the above protocol was great for adding size and strength with minimal fat gain, but was expensive though!

glad that worked/works for you but i like to keep it real simple with performance nutrition, plus i'm not the biggest biotest fan :/

I mean, currently i'm on absolutely no supplements, but if I was or was to recommend anything, it would be:
- clean diet (lots of veggies/chicken/lean meats/fruit)
- protein shake in the morning
- protein shake 1-1.5 hours prior to lifting
- protein shake right after lifting
- big meal ~1 hour after lifting
- zig zagging carb intake

protein shakes for me, are simple: whey + whole milk OR whey + propel packet + gatoraid powder.. as for direct ratio of protei/carb, I like the 1:3 protein/carb rule..

I think alot of that advanced supplementation is pretty overrated, but that's just me..




My current "workout nutrition" protocol, on a normal training day (not trying to peak vert)..
- wakeup: whole milk + bananas
- a bit after waking up: stir fry + protein source + whole milk  OR  rice & beans + protein source + whole milk
- 1 hour pre-workout: whole milk + banana
- workout: 1-3 hours, no water, no nutrients
- ~15 minutes after workout: ~3-4 glasses of whole milk
- ~1 hour after workout: ~2 glasses of milk, 5-7 bananas, sandwhich

lol :D

peace
