Progress Journals & Experimental Routines / Re: a fast and explosive donkey!
« on: July 21, 2016, 06:31:35 pm »I feel for you man. My younger brother od'd this summer at a festival. Would have died if he had been alone at the time. So fucked up.
no doubt, glad he got some emergency help! my brother might have died the other night too but he went to an AA meeting (ironically enough) before the OD really kicked in and so when he started having seizures someone was there to call 911.
anyway.

we are amateurs who are dedicated and push ourselves but without proper supervision (mostly), sleep (lots of us -- especially the guys with kids), and prehab. and in a lot of cases suboptimal nutrition.

WEIGHT: ???
SORENESS: none
ACHES/INJURIES: lower back tight
MENTAL STATE: not great, bob
- warm up
- one-step RVJ x 3,3,3
very stiff
- MB OH toss (no step) x 6
- squat MSEM 300 x 6
got angry, bar was flying
- decline leg raise x 10; +7.5 x 10,10
- stretch
my brother OD'd again last night so instead of a long combo jumps+lifts workout i got this in after visiting him in the hospital. he's okay, all things considered. the gym felt great even though this wasn't much of a workout, rarely does it feel like as much of a self-care thing as it did tonight.

if you ever watched those videos of ben johnson quarter squatting 500+, you know charlie francis believed this, too.
the idea of quarter squatting makes my knees cry, though.

the difference between 1 and 2-3 is HUGE. look how much longer and faster your last step is. nice.

i'd stop running altogether if you're worried about getting injured. can you up biking volume instead? or row? crossfit-style stuff isn't a replacement for low-intensity cardio but it should be fine as well as long as it doesn't stress your achilles.

my n=1 is that heavy weighted decline situps fuck up my back if i do them too frequently or too intensely. much prefer toes-to-bar; ab wheel rollouts also good.
