It was a good session, the 50kg dumbbell was no doubt heavy but was able to do the workout each leg and rest between legs. Spend a few weeks on this weight till my body gets used to it and it feels comfortable like 40kg. The jump squats was ok, the back extension I used a barbell and I keep my arms straight with barbell hanging off the end of it and just lift my upperbody up. Did leg press calf raise as doing it with barbell puts pressure on my lower back. Then did some upperbody work. slowly by slowly getting off the post workout supplement whey protein shake.

800m+ Running and/or Conditioning / Re: Ingebrigtsen Brothers
« on: August 13, 2018, 09:19:08 am »
was watching the 1500m, great performance by the young ingebritsen sibling. I also love how they are sticking together and they are just cruising to the front in a calculated manner and then they just start picking up the pace in the last lap, they also worked together to help the younger one.

great performance.

400m Sprinting or Shorter / Re: Sprinter Training
« on: August 12, 2018, 09:41:07 am »
I was looking into sprinting technique as I always do when I am not doing anything  :ninja: and what caught my attention was the lean.

When accelerating out of the blocks as always you are leaning but what I want to know is that do you lean at the hips when accelerating out of the blocks during the drive phase so a forced lean at the hip to go faster or let the lean be natural and not at the hips.

Boxing / Re: Gennady Golovkin vs Saul Canelo Alvarez
« on: August 11, 2018, 10:48:55 am »
I always felt that ggg who was a monster at middleweight would withstand canelo's ultimate power shots and he did and I just came across this article which showed this and you can see how ggg is not even affected by it. Just incredible. So canelo saw this and though 'wtf' and started back pedalling.

Comment
It was a good session, the runs felt ok compared to the last 20m which felt even better. The isometric back extension holds is difficult especially when you reach 40 secs onwards your core shuts down back shuts down and your body is shaking trying hard to get to 60 seconds and your body slowly going lower and lower. Good workout. hayfever causing heavy chest affected the recovery a little. I plan to incorporate 30m sled runs hopefuly next workout.

Comment
It was a good session, I had to go light on the partial squats + calf raise to learn how to lean when squatting as it's something I only get right through experimenting before going heavy and because of my bad back I don't want to irritate it. reverse lunges was good.

Devon alexander vs andre berto, slow and a little boring. alexander was the more quicker and effective fighter but soo much holding and struggling. Berto managed to get some late rounds but not all and yet two judges somehow had berto winning 8 rounds to 4 lol.

OMG Kovalev vs Eleider alvarez what a great fight such great exchanges. Must watch.
https://www.ok.ru/video/809927969472
Spoiler below (only read once you have watched)
Elieder vs alvarez was a great fight, elieder seemed to have the better boxing skills and also looked clean with his jabs, but kovalev's punches just painful everytime, alvarez won first two rounds and then kovalev doing damage and alvarez does not have that much of a good defence so when he was in danger kovalev would just hunt him down and alvarez had no defence to stop, rounds were a little close towards the end, I was starting to lose interest until last round, alvarez starting to get control and then BAM that right hand that knocks kovalev down and then has the upper hand again KAPOW, kovalev is down and dazed but manages to get up and then final blow by alvarez to knock kovalev and win by TKO awesome fight mainly because of the fact that an underdog did that much damage and I feel beat kovalev more convincingly no controversy there. GREAT JOB ALVAREZ

Also alvarez only punches with his two main knuckles because of some injury and im guessing its the first two finger knuckles and yet does this to kovalev, he is tall and rangy and a great boxer and has power, good things await this guy.

what's that about registering with british athletics? the open meets at lee valley cost six pounds per event. i don't know where you are in the UK but it's worth traveling to race. you'll never be in as good shape as you hope to be, and that's fine! i did two races on my recent trip in crap conditions because there's no replacement, even as a training tool, for competition against other people. could i have done better if i'd trained more, hadn't flown 7,000 miles one way and then 7,000 miles another way, been able to keep running consistently on the road, etc.? yes. doesn't matter, still beyond happy with myself for at least trying.

you can do it!

If you want to join a club you have to register with england athletics and pay the membership fee.

Most of the meets near my region, east england, do their meets online and some are cancelled and some require registration with england athletics.

when are you gonna race, man? like, find an open meet and race? for example: https://www.visitleevalley.org.uk/en/content/cms/outdoors/athletics-centre/competition-entry-forms/sprints-meetings/

it's about measurement, but even more than that it's about learning. at the meets i went to a few years ago, i impressed exactly no one with my times. but i chatted to a couple of fast people who were impressed simply that i'd decided to try to get faster as an adult, entirely on my own, and test myself. that's what you're doing, too. if i'd decided to keep trying to get faster at sprinting, instead of realizing that sprinting was one in a long line tangents distracting me away from jumping, i'd have followed up with a couple of those people. hobbyists love sharing their hobby.

http://www.openmeetings.co.uk/find-an-open-meet.php

In UK athletics you have to be registered with British athletics, which I am and also be a member of a club, which the price is £62.00 which is ridiculous.

The real truth why I don't race besides being too occupied to go out of town competition, also because my training is like a stage by stage training so I am training the acceleration part of the 100m so I haven't trained the speed maintenance and deceleration to a certain degree, I fear of getting a bad time and resulting in low motivation to train.

I would like to compete but would prefer if it was local until I feel confident to go to bigger and out of town meets.

This is the worst attitude you can have with any sort of activity, mental or physical. I have probably been the hardest on you in terms of competing, but it's only because you've indirectly expressed this attitude in the past, and it holds back your progress immeasurably. I was happy to see you'd joined a club, because being part of a group can exert a positive peer pressure to go out there and compete, which is desperately what you need. But, you're still training by yourself (I'm guessing you're nervous to measure up against other runners) and, I'm not even sure if you're actually being coached properly, with puzzling max DLs out of nowhere and seldom running more than 50m in a workout. In each training phase, a sprinter does typically perform exercises to train all components of the race (acceleration, top speed, and speed endurance) in proportion. The weighting of each component will change a lot depending on the time of year, but they should be all in play at any given time.

Agree with everything you said. Nervous measuring up to runners is true. I hope to eventually get out of this mindset. I will ask to sign up to local meets. But I do well on my own then with groups (introvert)

damn i just noticed one of my runner friends shit themself during a race.. and still finished top3.

old photo...

wow.

LMAO.

damn.

Isn't this just a rite of passage for runners  :D

is it? never happened to me. i'd sh*t on the side of the road I think. :/

running with poop dripping down my leg etc, sounds like a nightmare. I'd rather just pull over, do like Zane Robertson in the Vice video, shoot it out, then get back to running. I guess their could be some slight residual poop tho.

Haha. Having been to a few half and full marathons plus some ironman events I can tell you it's more frequent that you'd want to think. I don't think it's always intentional though. Imagine you're 4 hours and 10 gels into a half ironman and it hits haha

That would be a nightmare. I would drop out and find the nearest rest room. lol. Answer the call of nature in a cubicle or portaloo.  :ninja:
