The day before his fight against Manny Pacquiao, Floyd Mayweather took two intravenous infusions totaling 750 milliliters. The bags contained mixtures of saline and vitamins, but their contents are irrelevant: any IVs over 50 mL are strictly banned.

Introduce Yourself / Re: Been aware of these boards for a while
« on: September 08, 2015, 09:55:20 am »Btw, LBBS, how has that arthritis affected your training and VJ aspirations?
sorry, completely missed this when you posted it. the arthritis has two main effects. first, it means i can't really get a proper toe-off. my big toes are quite inflexible, as you might imagine, and my gait at all times -- walking, running, jumping -- works around that fact. caused no shortage of pain up and down my legs as i adjusted my gait in my early 20s. second, it means my toes hurt like crazy some of the time, and that negatively impacts my ability to train. the pain is unpredictable: right now i have none in either foot but on sunday evening my left toe hurt so much that i was almost limping, and sometimes it's in between, so i can train but not really do anything max effort.

« on: September 08, 2015, 09:13:42 am »That is true, but it is just the way it is measured for reference. I guess it just replicates the olympic games measurement system ( see long jump and triple jump ).
Given the chance, not sure if you people are aware, broad jump WAS an olympic event early on : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standing_long_jump
yup i read about that. also read they still do that in some countries as a competition
totally. for americans the most famous broad jump "competition" is the NFL combine.

build up rowing like a couch-to-5k running program. start with easy intervals, then add time, then increase interval duration, then just go straight. so like, 10 mins of 60/30 work/rest. then add one work set per workout until you get to 20 mins. then move up to 120/30, then just go straight through.

oh no i think 20 mins on the rower a few times a week is fine, although i wouldn't do speed/power/strength work and LISS in the same workout. if you're gonna do that, i would definitely add it post-lifting, don't tucker yourself out for the central stuff.

well, there's a difference between training sets and all-out or ME sets. i wonder if this woman is more controlled in ordinary work sets.
