Sucks but in a way, might be a blessing in disguise. If your a bit overtrained or fatigued, taking a little break from all this you might rebound with a

Strength, Power, Reactivity, & Speed Discussion / Lance's method every day
« on: June 27, 2011, 10:08:39 am »
I was wondering if I use Lance's method every day... stopping when the rep I'm doing is significantly lower than the previous one, if it's too much or if it's OK.
I plan on using two sets and do this every day (morning):
Low volumes of snatch/clean (3x3)
Lance method, 2 sets with 45s rest in between them:
Squat + Overhead Press + Chinups (Monday - Wednesday - Friday)
Deadlift + Bench press + Pullups (Tuesday and Thursday)
Core work/stretch
It should not be too long of a workout and not too draining since I stop as soon as I rep slower/more difficult. Rep range will be 5-8.
I plan to do this in conjunction with Joel Smith's program, with Joel's Program happening in the evening.

Hm, makes sense. Basically as the serotonin is let a bit more in between the neurons to actually help in creating synapses, I think the "normal" way of the nervous system is easily obtained/maintained (basically the main idea with SSRIs).
I'm currently taking Trittico, Neurotop (carbamazepine, this is usually prescribed for epilepsy but I don't have such a thing so WTF?) and a sleep helper (Imovane).

I think it depends on how you attach it.
I attach it from behind the heel towards the middle of the foot. You can also attach it from your toes inside your foot.

Would you say anti-stress or "psycho" meds (like SSRIs) would help or negate my gains?

Pistons definitely. I also need to work on the lower leg more and get a bit lighter, I still haven't got under 80 kg at 1.82m height.

What if I want to stop squatting for a while? How to maintain that strength without going to the gym (and paying a lot of money)?
I'd like to stop squatting for a month or two, just to give my body some recovery time, I feel like I need it, my shoulders hurt immensly, sometimes I can't even raise my arms properly because of the accumulated pain from low bar squatting and the pressure it puts on my arms, and just in general - I need to recover for a while and not squat at all.
My thinking is use some KB swings and focus on the core more (since I suck so hard at it anyway) and play ball, maybe do some plyos if anything.

« on: June 25, 2011, 03:30:31 pm »I have no idea. Maybe. Probably. Is one rep at ~95% that hard every day?
why don't you just do a daily max (no grinders)? much better imho!
Good idea^^^
