Strength, Power, Reactivity, & Speed Discussion / Re: Help Me Restart

congrats on the progress! good luck with getting the bulk underway.

all my lean protein meal suggestions involve meat, so can't help much there. if you ever switch over to omnivore status let me know, i got recipes galore. made some tasty pulled chicken last week that's still going strong. i've made about 7-8 pounds of pulled pork in the past month, too. yum.

there have got to be some sites you can check out, though. just google "vegetarian bodybuilding recipes" or something like that.

We just saw men fly!

this is amazing. some of the calls are awesome, too. iman shumpert and quincy acy don't get enough love as nasty in-game dunkers. russell westbrook does and he deserves every bit of it. his dunk at ~8:45 sticks out to me for some reason.

the guy actually wrote back this time. their sprint workouts are generally:

- warm up
- drills
- 2 x (50,100,200,400) @85% (explicitly described as "lactate threshold" training)
- cool down

the main coach is a "marathoner who loves sprinting." so a bit dubious/disappointing with respect to speed work of the type acole's been doing and t0ddday does, and what i'm really interested in. worth checking out, though. maybe i'd meet someone there who's actually interested in sprinting and has a better idea what they're doing than i do.

WEIGHT: ???
SORENESS: upper hams, i presume from the BSS on saturday
ACHES/INJURIES: none
MENTAL STATE: U-S-A!

- warm up

- various SL jumps and bound drills x 20 mins
doing heel-toe runs and gradually building speed seems to be a good one. doesn't get the two-arm pump but i feel like i could build from those.

- easy sprint 120y x 6
just to get the heart rate up. was completely dark by the time they finished, i guess soccer was off tonight because of the game, so there was no one there to turn on the lights?

- stretch

- cool down

will stretch again in a bit.

ETA: DL bounds are out. they come too close to irritating my back.

PVTC is the group I emailed with no response. I've had ultimate games on the field where they work out and it was all middle-distance people. I remember seeing a girl I'd gone to high school with who was a talented 5k runner and ended up running at Maryland. She was fit as hell, toasting dudes in the repeat 400s and 800s that they seemed to be doing. But I don't want to be doing 800s. If they get back to me and say, hey, actually we do have a group that does sprint training, then by god I'll get my ass down there on Monday nights. But they're the only ones. The Maryland clubs, and there are a couple although hard to tell how active they are, might as well be in New York for how realistic it would be to get to their practices sans car.

In re: fixing my bounds: I weep to think how much improvement I could make with a knowledgeable partner or coach. By god, I bet I could even run sub-13s.* If I ever get into competitive lifting I will for damn sure find a training partner and proper club because I know the value. It just isn't that easy here. Especially without a car.

* :ffffffuuuuuu:

Also LBSS i had a dream last night i went back to highschool but with all the life experience and saavy i have as an adult. Was a cool dream. No relevance just thought to mention.

edit oh and I wouldnt go by emails. No one in this country bothers returning them if you cold mail them. Phone call or go see them in person.

we'll see about the email. looking through the club's website again i'm actually more hopeful than i was before. will be funny if i have to eat my words.  :derp:

cool about the high school dream. i often think to myself how much ass i could have gotten if i had the confidence that i do now. not that i did terribly in that department in high school, mind you. but there was plenty of room for improvement. same goes for college, really. youth really is wasted on the young. ::)

I am absolutely confused by how some of the guys on the forum insist on training alone.   Maybe LA is just different but down here you can't walk around a track without seeing a training group and joining one is a piece of cake... If you just be friendly at the gym and track you should be able to get your way on a team...

believe me, i've looked. the only track groups i've been able to find around here are for distance running, or else are too far away to be practical without a car. i could join a triathlon or power lifting or olympic lifting club tomorrow. but sprinting just isn't a thing in this area unless you're in high school. the club that organizes track meets in the area has weekly track workouts but they seem to be for middle distance runners.* if i could go back to high school now i'd join the track team and just beg to do sprints and jumps even though i'm better suited to (i.e., not quite as horrible at) the mile. but i'm 27 and got my diploma 10 years ago. don't think they'd let me on the team.

the point is: LA is different.

*that said, i never got a response when i emailed some months ago asking about sprinting practice. would be worth reaching out again to see if they just misrepresent themselves on their website.
