@adarq -- what do you think of running form drills, like A-skips, B-skips, butt kicks, etc?

my advice might be a bit useless considering i don't do drills and i'm slow. :ninja:

i don't really understand a/b skips tbh.

butt kicks/leg swings/hurdle mobility, yea that stuff is effective - from a mobility/flexibility/coordination perspective.

as far as more strict running form/mechanics drills go with considerable time spent on it during a session, not much of a fan. seems like a waste to me. it's fine as part of a warmup though. probably most effective when it's done as part of a warmup, to progressively wake those motor patterns up.

2cents!

pc!

As mentioned the other day. Body felt like rubbish the day after the game. Noticed something pretty ridiculous today. I've been "eating clean" the last couple of days. When I say clean I mean proper clean. Low-ish carb, decent protein, moderate fat. Still been having a big bowl of porridge at night to try and get the carbs up. My body the last 2 days has almost felt like a permanent cramp and really just horrible. Really a lot through the hips and back. Also massively in the ankles. I just assumed I had over done it on the weekend or really put myself through the wringer on the court. I just had 4 eggs on 2 decent slices of sourdough bread with 3 florentines on the side. Sitting back at my desk and I just realised there's almost no pain. Feels like I've just dropped a couple of hard pain pills. There's some stiffness still there but as for actual pain...not much. Crazy!

i've had the *EXACT* same thing happen to me, several times (i've journaled it).

i've come to realize it's not the protein, but it's the saturated fat/cholesterol which "fixes" you. Just like you, trying to eat "clean" (lol) - no dairy & infrequent meat/eggs, i eventually start feeling incredibly weak & achy, then I can't take it anymore and I eat eggs or a steak -> and i'm back on track. Whole milk also does the trick for me. I've been eating alot cleaner lately, but getting in my milk, so i feel fine. I've had chicken/meat like twice in 2 weeks but feel great.. because i'm getting in that whole milk. Without it i'd be wrecked. I've been thinking about getting eggs again but i'm just too "lazy" at the moment, don't feel like making them. But they really are the truth when it comes to nutrition IMHO.

Damn that's crazy. I'm going to have to track this properly. I feel like when I try to eat clean I end up in purgatory by not doing either thing well. I can live off meat and eggs though. Sounds like the perfect diet to me lol.

I'm going to have to check your journal too. It's about the third time it's happened to me but I never realise till it's too late.

ya it's interesting.

i'll try to find my journal entry about it tmw. i think i know where it is. i recall the latest one being about 1.5 years ago or so.

damn. sucks about the foot. hope it heels up quick. maybe try thicker shoes a bit more often until it heals.

i've had lots of stuff like that. one of the scariest was fairly recent, just wrecked the bottom/lateral side of my foot running hills. lasted a few months. then just vanished one day.

the human body is so weird.

Now back to reality, I'm going to try to get myself below 20% BF via a combination of weight and interval training.... and go from there...

that's a great goal change. alot branches off of just getting leaner & in better shape.

run was going good today. last quarter mile of 10, and i clip a rock and almost fall. I land in a deep single leg shrimp style squat on my right leg (which has the hurt glute/hip/hamstring). so, i start thinking, damn this isn't going to turn out good. beyond that i cracked a few toenails on my left foot. was relieved not to have hurt my achilles etc, could have easily done so considering how i landed.

anyway, as the day went on, my injured areas felt great. better than it has since being injured - afaik.

that psycho single leg depth drop might have loosened some shit up.. lmao. insanity. :ninja:

05/27/2019:
- felt good

07:30 AM: light w/ hills (The Mountains of Coral Springs): 1h42m ::: (grass) /// Great light run with the north FL beast Gabriel /// 10.0 miles on the dot
- https://www.strava.com/activities/2401298724
- 10.00 mi @ 10:11 /mi in 1h 41m







met up with someone i raced with last year, on memorial day. we are both coming off injury so, we met up to run some hills. he comes down for memorial weekend to visit family/inlaws. good run chats. good session. his father inlaw helped his foot doing some crazy acupuncture stuff on his ear. he's a very smart dude so i take his word for it. pretty cool.





07:00 PM: bw
- strong but took it ez
- legs felt great

- full hypers: BW x 40, 30, 30, 40

some volume!

can you do those single arm chinups now?

imagining your lats/fingers must be way stronger now after being consistent with the climbing stuff.

footage from Stinson's 25km american record.

Quote
25k (15.5343 miles) is a hard distance for many fans to put their minds around so maybe this will help. Stinson hit 10k in 29:20, split 62:03 for the half marathon and still had another 2.42 miles to go.

i dno like 4:42 min/mi pace or something like that.

flying.

“When I got back to the hotel there were a lot of messages online, people talking trash at him,” the seven-time kick-boxing world champion Alexandre said. “I honestly don’t know why. I can’t understand why people hate him so much.
“I don’t know if it’s because he’s good looking, like a model. I can’t understand and I don’t like that. I asked people to stop tagging me on those messages.”

good on cosmo.
