« on: June 02, 2019, 10:41:26 am »omg. What can I say about this fight. joshua was good because he has faced a lot of heavy hitters, but this guy he has hand speed and combination that joshua just couldn't get used and never in his career was he ever trained to deal with that. Even in his klitschko fight where he was out of his mind. Joshua deals well against heavy slow hitters but not so much people with combination and hand speed.
Joshua is tall and more susceptible to being dazed when being hit to the temple.
Joshua needs to learn how to deal with this kind of fighter. From this I can tell you deontay wilder would have destroyed joshua.
Andy ruiz s a great fighter and would pose a threat to any heavy slow hitters. joshua maybe strong and a little fast but cannot deal with fast hitters.
But ruiz would not survive against another fast hitter aka deontay wilder. but may prove tough for tyson fury.
First mexican heavyweight and to win it in this fashion is the cherry on the cake.
ya that's the thing with Joshua.. can he handle getting clipped with real power. It kinda seems: no. He had a great come back vs Klitschko but if that happens against someone like Deontay, he's going to sleep.
Deontay vs Ruiz is now the big matchup lmao.
The thing about Deontay is.. what he lacks in pure boxing skill (starting late in life), he makes up with his Thor's Hammer right hand, and his chin/heart. Deontay can take a shot, but he can deliver them worse than anyone in boxing.
I'd rather see Joshua vs Deontay than a rematch with Ruiz, but Joshua deserves his rematch. I'll be so curious to see how that turns out. Ruiz seems pretty legit. I can't imagine he'll get run over in a rematch. A skilled heavyweight w/ power that can take shots like that and keep coming like it was no problem, mexican-style at HW, that's scary.
Everyone will be gunning for Ruiz.. he looks ready tho. hah.
was so shocked last night. unreal.

damn that late light stretch went very good.
wasn't able to trigger any of the usual pain.
was able to trigger some fatigue/sensation in one movement.
first time since injury (months go) being able to stretch my hamstring without this area in my glute/hamstring being painfully tight.
crazy.
I posted in a stretching thread in another subforum. That Goggins stuff resonated with me when I saw the interview months back. It reminded me of some stuff i've done, but he ended up doing it daily for years. Seems to be most important to him, his long ~2-3 hour stretch sessions every night.
curious to see how i feel tomorrow. i imagine my hamstrings will be pretty sore lol. but if that injury/pain goes away, man o man.. incredible.

ok so today was weird.. i was in that mode where i was testing my glute/ham in positions that cause it pain. and it's just pissing me off.
so then i start stretching.. and im just like fuck it. i'm going to try and pull this tight muscle off the bone - knowing that sounded like a bad idea.
so i do some long holds.. some intense holds. really stressing that area (glutes/hamstrings/sacral spine), and other areas (back/lats/hips/quads).
long story short.. after stretching through some considerable pain, and thinking i'm making it worse, it felt like it disappeared, even on my run tonight.. and even AFTER my run. haven't felt it at all.
the big test will be tomorrow.. to see how it feels for the AM run.
if this fixes the area, it'll put me back on the stretch bandwagon. because so far it's shocking. this pain has been there for like 2 months now. i've stretched it off/on throughout that period, but never this much.. and probably not this intense.
some side effects of the stretching tho: hamstrings feel shredded.
who knows tho.. i'll probably end up jacking something else up. hope not.

00:39 <@run> what's interesting about that fight is..
00:39 <@run> how joshua crushes ruiz in that first knock down
00:39 <@run> i mean he clipped him clean
00:39 <@run> very hard shot
00:39 <@run> but that mexican warrior blood
00:40 <@run> he gets back up and he's completely fine
00:40 <@run> joshua comes in for the kill and gets tagged
00:40 <@run> normal HW's going down on a joshua shot like that, arent getting up so fresh

Injury, Prehab, & Rehab talk for the brittlebros / Re: The Misc Stretching Thread
« on: June 01, 2019, 11:11:01 pm »
one of the things i remember most from his Joe Rogan interview, was him talking about how he just felt so jacked up after years of training, stress, etc.. that he just started stretching for hours and "unwound" himself. (his hip flexors were especially tight)
something from a Goggins interview:

12. Stretching the body can be healing
David Goggins had to take a break from competing because of some major health issues he was dealing with. He attributes his recovery to stretching for hours at a time. He learned that the more he stretched the quicker he was recovering. He started out stretching for 8 hours a day. After a while he reduced it 4 hours and now he stretches for 2 hours a day. Now that he is recovered and competing again, he noticed that stretching so much has led to him having more flexibility in his hips, which has led to him being able to knock 1 minute off of his already impressive running pace. He was able to complete a 50-mile ultra marathon with a 7:30 minute per mile pace. Hearing this definitely inspired me to want to take more time to stretch my own body each day.

50-54 is probably considered old.
Brad Barton sets another WR.
4:19 mile in the 50-54 age group.

« on: June 01, 2019, 06:46:01 pm »5 weeks later and I'm still having intense Achilles pain. I can barely walk without limping. I had an ultrasound done and they confirmed that the Achilles was still in tact (not ruptured) but noted that there was a severe amount of inflammation, which is evident just looking at my Achilles. 38 pictures have been sent to my GP so I'll have to go and follow up with the GP on the best management practice. The radiologist noted that the inflammation was right where the Achilles and Heel connect, which is bad as wearing shoes constantly aggravates the injury and prolongs recovery time. As soon as I take my shoes off I feel instant relief.
damn man that sucks :/
sounds like solving that shoe problem is a big priority.
for runners, Mo Farah used to (maybe still does?) cut the back of his shoes to prevent that friction.
