Continuing the off-topic ( sorrryyyy ), i am a big fan of converting long distance world class performances to small chunks to realize the greatness. I prefer converting them to sprints.
Half marathon @ 1:05 is.... 210 consecutive 18,5 seconds 100m tempos, LOLOLOLOL, 210 !!!

ahahahahahahahahahahahahaha...aha......

Hahah. I think converting them to quarter miles makes them seem most impressive... The guy who set the world record (pretty much same name as me - thats where similiarty ends) ran a 400m split time of around 67-68 seconds. FOR 52 CONSECUTIVE LAPS!

This is a time that a majority of physical fit active men couldn't hit for 1 rep. He did it over 50 times.

taking a shit in a trash can is dedication, not as bad as seeing one of your best friends shit has pants during a wrestling match with a girl lol

As far as crossfit goes, theres maybe like a couple awesome swimmers but they sucked at everything else and runners i mean idk. I haven't seen them run very far to begin with and froning had to walk during the 3 mile run.

The biggest badass that I have seen used to train with juggernaut training systems, he was a half marathoner I think or a full Marathoner that squatted over 700lbs...Alex Viada is the guys name.

from yesterday.

02/02/2016

Bio: Morning

sleep = 7 hr
wakeup = 8 AM
bw = 154 lb.
morning resting heart rate = didn't measure
soreness = right calf
aches = right calf, right knee slightly, right hip slightly, left thumb
injuries = toenails wrekt
bananas = 1
feel = good

Session: Morning

9 AM - 10:15 PM

tennis:
- just hitting
- hit REALLY good.. somehow form was bionic, crushing balls when I wanted
- kept most everything in

Food

2 PM ET

- 1 x 6 oz tart cherry mixed with 6 oz beet juice
- 5 scrambled eggs
- whole wheat toast with butter
- 1 x greek yogurt
- 3 scoops java chip ice cream
- some brookside chocolates

Session: Evening

7:15 PM

run:
- 9.20 mi in 1h:19m:56s
- pace: 8:42 min/mi
- speed: 6.9 mph
- calories: 1136

- cramped up on mile 5.1
- might be due to stomach shrinking

tried to figure out how to make my cramp disappear, while running.. to no avail. was brutal.

felt really good other than the cramp. calf didn't bug me, though I kept it light/soft running.

Food

9 PM

- 2 glasses of tart cherry juice mixed with raspberry la croix (FUCKING AMAZING)
- big bowl of fiber one in fair life whole milk (~2 glasses?), with banana
- whole wheat toast with butter
- 1 x grape fruit juice
- 3 scoops pistachio ice cream

Session: Stretching

10 PM - 12:30 AM
- literally 2.5 hours of stretching and self massage
- the right side of my body is so fucked (and has been fucked for a long time)
- found some extremely painful trigger points on my hip

- lots of hip, quad, adductor, upper body, hamstring, back stretching etc

need to drink more water.. i’m drinking a normal amount, but need to drink more.

the right side of my body is fucked.. i mean it's been fucked for a very long time, but i need to figure out how to fix it. everything from right shoulder, erectors, hip, quad/itb, knee, hamstring, peroneals, ankle/foot is MUCH more tender (and tighter usually) than the left side. going to keep stretching/mobilizing/massaging and see if there's any improvement. right hip has a very painful area when I dig in, basically paralyzes my leg. heh.

whilst you're at it you may as well throw in some mountains along the route (ultra-trail du mont-blanc) or run through the desert (marothon des sables).

there was a 268 mile ultra that passed by really near where i live recently. everyone finished, then one guy decided he was gonna do the route in reverse right away. crazy shit.

adarq - why is your right side so messed up, do you have a limb length discrepancy or something? have you rolled your plantar fascia with a golf ball - always suprises me how much this makes my whole body feel so much looser.

John Stamos · « **Reply #5963 on:** February 03, 2016, 07:59:45 pm »

For what you're doing I think you'd need more water than the average person. Also, deep tissue massages could help, usually depending on how screwed up you are they'd have you go in once a week or every other week and when you're better theyd suggest once a month. I had probably 4-6 knots in my back, a few in my chest, lower back pain(constant) and basically all over and it was gone within a few sessions and I felt like a yogi for awhile.

adarq - why is your right side so messed up, do you have a limb length discrepancy or something?

my left leg might be slightly longer, my left foot is DEFINITELY bigger, but doubt that's it. i've had all kinds of injuries in the past from playing basketball and such. I also have some issues in my sacral spine (genetic) that have bugged me off and on since I was a teenager. In the end though, I think it's just all of the years of sports, injuries, compensation, and lack of mobility/flexibility training.

I need to stay focused & consistent with mobility & flexibility. I need to see some significant & permanent changes in flexibility/mobility for once. I make some short term gains but it's tough getting those to persist. Some would say then, why bother? Well, I just can't move my joints through a "healthy ROM". I want to see what it feels like to be able to move my body through a healthier range of movement. Maybe it won't be what I think it's all cracked up to be, but I doubt it. I've been "tight as fuck" since ~12-13 years old. I had much better flexibility prior to 12, then out of nowhere my body stiffened up. I could come close to a split (in martial arts), then the next day, I couldn't. Maybe I got hit in the head or something.. ehheh.

not recently, but i have in the past. it's definitely helped my feet but I don't recall feeling better throughout.

ya definitely. for example today I started running at 157 lb.. post-run weight 150.1. I make sure to drink/eat it all back (and more) before I sleep.

damn nice.

I went to a specialist once way back, painful as hell, but he worked a bunch of stuff out. Similar experience.

It's the same story with me, just that it is my left side. Left hip, SI joint and shoulder are often pretty stiff eventhough I do SMFR/mobility daily. My explanation is that I had two very severe ankle sprains a few years back from playing volleyball... one time I even tore two ligaments in my ankle. Since then my ankle has never really felt the same and eventhough I don't experience any pain it just feels odd. It's hard for me to get adequate ROM so I probably wouldn't be able to do front squats with good form without my romaleos. It seems that there are injuries that cannot be undone and you have to try your best to work around them. If that means avoiding certain exercises/activities, so be it. Sometimes you have to be smart instead of fighting through it. Better be save than sorry.

ya i remember you had some tough injuries.

when I was trying to sleep last night, I was wondering if the way I sleep also contributes.. i often fall asleep face down with my right arm up. Tried sleeping on my side with a pillow between my legs. Hip felt good waking up.. falling asleep in that "stretch" position is probably good for my hip/back etc.

probably what I have from tying my shoes too tight & running high mileage, extensor tendonitis:

http://running.competitor.com/2014/03/injury-prevention/injuries-that-arent-injuries_72338/3

i've always had a habit of tying my shoes tight.. like someone said on teh live chat, a basketball habit. anyway doesn't seem so serious but, i'm going to keep them loose & keep running. it has helped so far.

just annoying, whatever. ;f
