Cello, lol. If it's a family thing I would never consider buying it off you. I'm kinda jealous of your dad for the trumpet though. Now I'm curious.... i wanna know what it was.

String instruments are pretty tight. I wish I could play the violin or cello. If i learned bass i'd probably just try my older bro's electric.

things are still going very well, glad you are responding to this program.. we need to get you some bionic hamstrings over the course of a year or so, i'm talking completely ridiculous.. all of this ghr progress will transfer bigtime to your sprinting, things are going good.

Haha, I would live bionic hamstrings. And I agree. I think hams are the most neglected muscles, especially in HS track. People are tearin them up all the time.

nice nice!

just don't rush your progress too much on the lifts, i mean 5 lb a week is good because you're providing a new stimulus without closing in on complete failure, while still adapting and getting stronger.. i love getting stronger by using "submaximal progression".. if you feel like bumping it up 10 lb go for it, but make sure all 3 sets don't become a life or death struggle on the 5th rep, if so we have to back off a week and stay at the current intensity level, focusing on bar speed.

peace man

I'll keep raising at 5 lb per week. I don't want to rush anything because if I go too fast I know I'll probably have to maintain for an extra week eventually and I'll be at the same place anyway but with excess soreness.
Right now, I feel like the bottom of my movement is the weakest. I slow down a bit at the bottom but at the top the weight bounces a bit when I focus on the speed all the way through.

I like playing trumpet. I don't usually listen to much of it though, but this guy really knows how to get people's attention. I especially like how he's almost dancing while he plays.

Mmmmmmm....... peanut butter chocolate.

Good stuff there. I like the first vid. (especially the intro, but that's mostly because I play trumpet)

I play the trumpet. (and really any variation of it like the flugelhorn/cornet/piccolo trumpet etc....)

A.P. Day 10:

-Warmup
-Hurdle mobility drills

-Single leg bounds: 4x6 each leg
-Sprint warmup

-High Hurdle Endurance

        -As stated. It's meant for speed endurance in 55m-110m hurdle races

        -Set up 5 hurdles, race height, each spaced one foot closer than race distance. (adrenaline, tapering compensation...)

        -From three point stance sprint through all 5 hurdles, walk to start, sprint again. Repeat 2 more times. (20 hurdles)

        -That's one set. Rest 5 minutes, and repeat

Or at least that's what I ended up doing.

Originally it's supposed to be over 5-6 hurdles, with 10 reps being one set, a workout being two sets. Not conditioned for it right now though (nor have I ever been, not even in season).
I like the workout though. As I started to get more tired, form started falling apart and I was forced to make it my focus. Still, I think I should have left them 3" under race height.
Since I only did 4 reps on the two sets, I planned on completing three or four sets. First hurdle on my fourth rep/second set my trail leg dipped too much and my right ankle slammed into the hurdle. Bruise is deep, so it's not all that noticeable, but I decided to end the workout there. Still haven't conditioned enough to do the full workout anyway.

Upper body lifts were skipped today. Still having trouble biting on my front teeth so I've been eating a bit less. I'll most likely do a morning and evening split for lower/upper tomorrow when my mouth feels a bit better and I can get all the food I need.
