Damn, some people said that her mindset was in it. But wat happened to her since that last defeat that this happened.
True she can't box as was shown in the video of her shadow boxing lol. She needs to change her coach.

her coach ruined her.. she thinks she can box. news flash rhonda: you can't even throw 1 decent punch.. stop punching.

run day.


12/30/2016

Bio: Morning

last night's sleep: 8 hours
last night fell asleep: ~4 AM
wakeup = 12 PM
bw = 157 lb.
-  :o
morning resting heart rate = didn't measure
soreness = quads barely, adductors/hamstrings moderately, erectors barely, calfs tight (left more so)
aches = none
injuries = 2 toenails black, left shoulder moderately
quad stretches throughout the day = ok amount
standing desk (when on computer): no
feel = very tired
water = alot
mosquito bites: 0



Food

12 PM

- big bowl of cereal + 2% milk + honey
- green tea




Food

4 PM

- watermelon
- blueberries
- oatmeal + honey
- green tea



Session: Evening

7 PM

moderate/hard long run: 10.04 mi in 1h:08m:33s @ 6:50 min/mi pace
- COLD AF (~56 F)
- felt decent
- wanted to hit 9 miles in an hour, failed
- miles in one hour: 8.86  :personal-record:

also according to strava:

Best estimated 10 mile effort (1:08:15)
Best estimated 15k effort (1:03:22)



that 6:13 in there @ mile 6 :ibrunning:

it's funny tho.. my legs simply aren't strong enough right now.. i mean i push with less effort initially, and have a decent pace.. then at mile 4+, i push harder and my pace creeps down slowly.. so less effort early on, easy speed.. more effort later on, less speed. Legs simply aren't strong enough, need to get them way stronger.

i'll post PR's in the PR thread once I go sub 40 min in 10k and 9.0+ miles in an hour.

I'd build up to 10x10, first time I did it i had extremely sore legs for over a week a I was pretty conditioned with basketball, track and lifting.

yup, i still think building up via 5x10 and occasional 20's will prepare you pretty good.

but def not going from 3-5x5 to 10x10 etc.. wrecked.

dno why she thinks she can box.. she obviously can't. insane. Her coach is the biggest failure i've ever seen. He's completely ruined her.

advice: don't try to box.. evade, takedown, rip arm apart, repeat.

#highrepnation... I got a pretty sick shoulder pump from doing sets of 10 on the overhead press today. I can just imagine how 20-30 reps or more would feel. Maybe I'll try some MEBM squats.

cool! just go light at first.

GVT (10x10) just seems too.much volume to work with heavy enough weights to increase strength. Or how was your experience with it?

well you definitely need to be able to do 5x10 first.. then it's just more of a mental thing. It's not that much more stressful tbh, but it takes alot more time AND requires you usually to remove some other exercises from the session; ie it's the primary focus of the session. If you do 5x10's for several months, trying 10x10 wouldn't be too much of a shock. You can always do it with your ~12 RM too, so 10 x 10 @ 12 RM. The time under tension here is the important thing. That set/rep scheme seems to work wonders for "growing".

But ya don't mess with 10x10 right now.. Experimenting with a ~20 rep finisher at times is probably a better/safer idea. Those can be tough but make you feel extremely good afterwards. They are a great stimulus for growth.

Have done two workouts since the last post.

Workout 1-
Squat-
Worked up to 5 reps at 100
First time squatting in 5 weeks and it was pretty good. 100 felt fairly easy. RPE of 5-6 or so. No belt but used knee sleeves.

Workout 2-
Incline Bench- 60 x 6, 55 x 8, 50 x 10
Ring Chins- +10 x 3, 3, +15 x 3

good to see the squats felt good. can't believe it's been 5 weeks, fuq.

I know. It's ridiculous. I got used to not squatting and almost completely forgot about it.

damn.... :o

Lol. I think it's my coping mechanism. If I can't do it I write it out of my mind.

makes sense.

i seem to do similar things - even with activities like programming etc.. definitely helps you cope if you're not even thinking about it at all.

I'd be down once i get more into lifting and used to the stress, obviously the 23-17-10 was too much for my lower back today so i need more conditioning lol  I pretty much would do any exercise high rep except for any that requires bending over such as a deadlift or bent over rows.  During my crossfit days I did a 100 rep deadlift for time with 185 i think and I had migraines for a week after.

ya i don't like high rep deadlifts either. I do like high rep RDL's tho.. i feel like I can control my form better under fatigue.

I got a headache yesterday during my 135 x 60 .. head started hurting around rep 45 or so. I've been good since tho, so not worried atm. Damn @ migraines for a week.

The 100 rep OH press with 135 was fun AF though along with GVT on squats and bench.  It would probably benefit me a lot to get into the #highrepnation for the academy.

yup #highrepnation is like taking the red pill in the matrix.

I think tomorrow i'm going to do high rep (HR) squat, HR overhead press, and HR curl.. just a 1+ hour swole session. :ninja:

Haven't hit calves in a while and I plan to hit them tonight. They usually get pretty sore after not doing them for a while.

Tomorrow they should be pretty sore and I'll try out the leg drains

cool!

interested to see if you see any benefits.

I have a trap bar and I like it for the most part.  It is weird trying to find your position at first but once you do its easier to lift more weight.  BB deads still felt a bit more normal to me than trap bar deads, thats why I mainly used the trap bar for a type of farmers walk and shrugs.  There is a fairly cheap one on amazon that will fit about 450lbs.

Adarq, if you're drinking more milk, you need the magnetic cookie dunker


wtf is that? actually.. impressive / useful.

Also, sets of 20 or so like what I was doing seems to be pretty good for getting lean, I know thats what Stan Efferding does( I don't think hes on the juice anymore or even cutting roids)

nice! ya high rep sets are underrated in most circles.. i'm hoping lifting will help me break through this skinny-fat scenario i'm in with running.

i'd like to also get high rep nation going again.. this time turning it into a hash tag and maybe getting some other people interested in it. There's some high rep lifters out there but it'd be cool to turn it into more of a "thing", ie 100 rep squat sets #highrepnation .. dno. Everyone on here who tries MEBM seems to love it.. I think it's just one of those things that we know is effective but shy away from, because it's grueling.

I'd like to turn high rep lifting sessions into something similar to speed work sessions.. 12 x 400m repeats vs 12 x ~30+ on squat etc. stuff like that.

Seems like i'm motivated to experiment with it again... and less fearful right now of it because i'm in pretty good condition now.

i think i've asked you before, but what do you think about trap bars? especially with the high handles i think you could do what you're doing with the pin squats, just better cause you don't have that huge stress on your spine

i remember answering .. lol! :)

yeah I love the trap bar. If I had one I would use it. I prefer it over deadlift and the high handles help lots of people - better starting position.

As for huge stress on the spine, it's not that huge, especially at the weight i'm lifting. Oh, if you were referring to the video I posted (225 x 45 off pins), ya that wasn't a large stress either. 225 was very easy to handle at that point, felt like 135 feels now. hehe.

fwiw, i've seen people bounce with trap bars, that actually seems fairly dangerous.
