Progress Journals & Experimental Routines / Re: a fast and explosive donkey!
« on: October 08, 2012, 11:27:06 am »Oh true so you're like in the army or something.
I used to walk a lot but than I got a car so since than i've been lazy and just drive everywhere.
nope, not army.
i'm glad i don't have a car. rather spend that money on other things. plus, what do i need a car for? i'm almost never in such a hurry that a car is a huge advantage over walking or public transportation. if i need to go a long distance i just borrow. if i had a car i'd be sorely tempted to drive to the gym right now but i really don't need the 15 minutes it'd save me. if i did i could have left 15 minutes ago. slowing down is good.
really what it comes down to is i live in a city where everything is accessible without a car. if i lived in the suburbs or in a different kind of city i'd surely need one.

You've probably answered this before but what's the reason why you're always going over to the Middle East?

scrollbar still not working, or, rather, it goes up and down but so does the rest of the page. it's not dissociated, is what i'm saying.
also, that light blue...
i like it on principle, though.

FRIDAY:
BW = 177
SORENESS = none
ACHES/INJURIES = none
FATIGUE = moderate
- warm up
- DLRVJ x 6-7
meh, bad. left forearm whacked out by grabbing the rim but not well enough.
- depth jumps 3 x 2
- squat 285 x 8,8,5
the limitation is my ability to maintain a tight core later on. back is not giving it, it's the valsalva part -- i'm breathing too hard to do it properly or something. last night i dreamed about jumping rope all the damn time.
- SS1: dip x 12,12,10,10,6
- SS1: ring inverted row x 10,10,10,10,10
- SS1 info: 5 rounds (obviously). was trying to go for 15,15,10,10 on the dips but i'm not there yet.
- ab pull down x 30,30,30
- stretch
SATURDAY
- hike x 8-8.5 miles with gf
perfect day, really nice hike up near thurmont, catoctin mountain park.
- stretch

sounds like your experiment with nipping the eat-everything-in-sight monster in the bud did not go very well. sounds pretty classic, actually. you'd been doing great and you still are, don't worry about it too much.

« on: October 04, 2012, 09:51:20 am »can you give me an example how pull ups in terms of reps and sets would differ from low intensity and moderate intensity and high intensity.

BW = 177
SORENESS = none
ACHES/INJURIES = right wrist a little but barely noticeable
FATIGUE = low to moderate
- warm up
- DLRVJ x 5
fuck crossfit. was all set to jump at my normal rim and then they decided they needed the area RIGHT UNDER THE FUCKING RIM to do their shitty power snatches. went to other rim but it's harder for me to jump there for some reason. maybe it's higher but that'd be weird as it's a regulation high school gym.
- MR half tuck x 15
- SL bound x 7e -- just for fun
- MR half tuck x 30
- squat 280 x 8,8,8
still solid but need to concentrate better at end of sets
- SS1: dip x 10
- SS1: inverted row x 10
- SS1 info: 5 rounds. did inverted rows on rings and very close to parallel. later sets were hard.
- ab pull down x 30,30,30
- stretch

I follow this guy's log on Lyle's forum, one of the few reasons I still go over there. He's in his mid-40's and currently preparing for Raw Power Lifting worlds. His bench sucks, evidently thanks to shoulder injuries, but DL and squat are strong as shit -- he's aiming to compete at 181 and has a legit shot at setting several age group and possibly overall world records at that weight. He's only 10 pounds heavier than I am and 20 years older but he's nearly 200 pounds stronger in the lift that matters to me. Fun log to follow.
His accessory work reminds me of Kingfish -- everything is very high-volume. 20-rep RDL's, 5x10 band pull-aparts, etc.
Won't link to it because Lyle doesn't like to be linked to. But his YT channel has lots of good vids and is here: http://www.youtube.com/user/sullys64?feature=watch.
