ADD THIS NOTE TO EVERY POST SO YOU KEEP REMEMBERING: JUMP EVERY WORKOUT. IF THERE'S NO SPACE, FIND SPACE.

FOAM ROLL/LACROSSE BALL/SMR AFTER WORKOUTS AND ON REST DAYS.

STANDING QUAD/HAM/CALF/ITB/PEC STRETCHING THROUGHOUT THE DAY, EVERY HOUR OR SO.

KEEP SWEETS TO A MINIMUM. MOAR PROTEIN. MOAR VEGGIES.

BW = ???
SORENESS = none
ACHES/INJURIES = left ankle (?), left toe badly after workout
FATIGUE = low to moderate

- warm up

- sprint x 10y
felt pretty fast

- DSVJ x 5
low, 30-30.5

- DLRVJ x ~20
not good, best around 32 but it was just the once, most around 31. just had no bounce somehow, or was getting approach wrong, or something.

- MR half tuck 3 x 20
no bounce until third set, which was a bit better. i think i was just uncoordinated today

- squat MSEM 2 x 3 x 320
first set very strong, 4th and 5th reps only okay but last rep very strong. saved the workout from being a complete mess.

- lat pull down 3 x 10 x 70
pause at bottom, short rests

- dips 3 x 10
just to do 'em

- stretch

 

fwiw, i started doing pause squats during my warm ups recently also, almost by accident, and have found they help not just my knees but my hips and core. i get way better activation all over on work sets if i do pause squats through 185 or 225. up to 135 i'll even do a 2- or 3-count before coming out of the hole.

just my n=1.

slept like shit friday night, fell asleep in the afternoon instead of going to the gym and when i finally got around to it, place was closed.  (i was up at my gf's in baltimore all weekend, so was relying on her school's gym). went sunday midday instead. also, my diet sucked this weekend. poor quality food, not enough protein, too many sweets. this is a problem when i go stay with her. need to think about a solution.

- warm up

- sprint 2 x 10y

- DSVJ x 3
ew

- DLRVJ x 10
these sucked, not sure if it was the strange setting or dim light or the fact that my legs felt heavy and dead. got one jump around 31-31.5 and the rest barely 30. ouch.

- DL bounds 2 x 10

- squat MSEM 2 x 3 x 315
standard, very good depth (stupid gym had mirrors everywhere so i was staring right at myself)

- lat pull downs 10 x 60,60,75

- stretch

also slept like garbage last night and had to get to work at 7:30, so i will try to work out tonight but don't have high hopes for much in the way of good performance. oh well. kind of a lost weekend training-wise.   

Just read this, lol at the counting 60m.  6.5 while counting without spikes isn't good, it's freaking world class fastest man in the world type time.  Which might be a good reason to reconsider your method.   

+1 i hadn't noticed that before, either. counting in your head while sprinting as a way to time yourself... 

squatdr sighting at 3:15!!

we have a way of determining the fastest man ever known. it's called elite-level track and field. you know, where a bunch of very fast guys meet in an organized competition and race either for money or for a medal? maybe you haven't heard of it, but there are a few big competitions a year. the world record is now almost half a second faster than bob hayes's WR.

so you can argue that he's the fastest man the world has ever known, but you'd be objectively wrong.
