As a warning, I have a friend who used to love bananas, over ate them one time and developed an allergy. And since hten he can't eat a banana without sparking a new reaction. Not sure if it's a true story or not but he swears it and i have no reason to doubt him.
Training for balance in GPP and SPP.

lmao @ me saying I was going to cut the running volume this week.. ran ~7 mi this morning. plan to run again tonight. ;f

feels so good running at ~6-6:30 AM.

found a REALLY NICE running path ~2.5 mi from me.. it's an asphalt sidewalk which wraps around ~4 soccer fields, so it's pretty long.. no traffic intersections etc, just uninterrupted running!

maxent jinxed me, wtf.

i've never had abdominal pain after eating bananas, or tons of bananas.. today however, pain in my upper abdomen, which could be related to bananas.. i mean it seems like my actual abdominals, but it's a very weird/somewhat sharp pain.

hey man,

was wondering if you use any kind of calf compression while running/after? Looking at getting some dedicated running sleeves, 2xu ones look good? - been using some anti embolosim knee height stockings i stole from my sister after she had surgery, but they are falling apart pretty quick, however they do seem to have helped with calf soreness!

Warm up drills
   - a walk, b skip quick powerful switch (heel to hams focus), a runs, dribbles small to big to run, straight leg to runs (force, reflex, go up/forward). force to hit the ground before it hits the ground knee/hip is at 90 degrees.
   - acceleration: low heel recovery, shin angle low, drive legs back before hitting the ground and drive thighs/knee forward not up
-------------------------------------------------------------
Measuring reminder:
5 toe to heel steps = 148cm

yo! nah I don't.. i've never run with any compression, other than somewhat tight high socks. I've worn compression stockings before for jumping/short sprints/lifting, they did feel good, but never ran distance in them.

I was thinking of getting compression pants, but they were pretty expensive.

nice that they seem to help with calf soreness.

you getting these?






damn these pants look TIGHT (literally):

lmao. ikr.

i'm starting to think it's strained portions of my abdominals from running 2x yesterday and doing intense calisthenics.

i really can't see how it could be from bananas.. i've eaten like 50,000 bananas.

heh.

rained basically all day.. not during my run tho.



01/12/2016



Bio: Morning

sleep = 7 hr + 2 hour nap
wakeup = 6 AM
bw = 158 lb. (bloated)
morning resting heart rate = 43
soreness = calves slightly but after my evening run
aches =
injuries = toenails wrekt, upper abdominals - very weird though
bananas = 0
feel = tired



Food

6:30 AM

- 1 x orange juice
- 1 x greek yogurt



Food

8:30 AM

- egg omelette



Food

3 PM

- 1 x berry beet (some berry + beet blend, was actually pretty good)
- 1 x almond joy



Session: Evening

7:30 PM

run:
- 10.45 mi in 1:17:58
- pace: 7:28 min/mi
- speed: 8 mph
- strike: heel->toe entirely
- shoes: nb 5000v2
- relaxed ipod run, listened to two talks

- last time I ran 10+, I ran 10.66 in 1:25:18 .. so.. decent improvement on this run: 7:28 min/mi vs 7:59 min/mi, aka 8 mph vs 7.5 mph

splits:
- first mile my watch glitched, weird.. has me at 8 min/mi but, 5:35 mi/mi for "moving time".. so really, it was more like a 6:xx min/mi.. odd
- mile 1, 2: 6:xx, 6:23
- mile 3,4,5,6,7,8: 7:47, 7:59, 7:42, 7:55, 7:59, 7:41
- mile 9: 8:05
- mile 10: 7:58
- mile 11: ~6:49 (pushed it)

^^ definitely better splits than my last 10:xx .. dno what happened on mile 9.

abdominals didn't bother me.


Food

9 PM

- rice and beans + double grilled chicken
- 3/4th pint haagen dazs



shitty day with the weird abdominal pain.. kind of scary but, ithink it's just some weird low-grade strain from calisthenics + running yesterday.. figure I fatigued/stressed my abdominals hard during calisthenics, then wrecked them even more during my run. if it's banana related - uhhh would suck..

gn!

ya those are the ones. the tights do look pretty sweet - so expensive though + i think the calf only would offer more compression. i have some nike compression tights for but they offer next to 0 calf compression, they seem to instantly increase flxibility for oly lifting though - double up as insulation when its cold too.

ps for what it's worth, i think the abdo pain is more likely the calisthenics stuff than banana related, can't really see how bananas would be causing pain the day after, particularly upper abdominal pain. - on a banana related note, http://thebananagirl.com/ LOL

nice. if you get the calve sleeves, curious to see how you feel in them when running/recovery. My calves have been much less sore lately, but, that coincides with more heel->toe strike, which is more natural for me. I've been utilizing it lately because i'm trying not to think about anything when i'm running.

2xu looks like some good quality stuff.

ya I think so too. maxent was just trying to be helpful (I was kidding when I said he jinxed me), then this weird pain + all of the bananas, got in my head :f

seems alot better today.. but I also didn't eat any bananas yesterday. I'll probably eat some tonight so, we'll see tmw.

2XU is awesome. However, if you can't try them on first don't buy them,  sizing is whack. I tried a long sleeve top once and XL was not even possible to put on. ( my size for compression stuff is borderline M->L ).
Take a look at Skins stuff, still expensive but a bit less, great quality and an* 100% trustworthy size guide chart.

*Off topic: is it 'an 100%' or 'a 100%' ? what is the rule? the letter ( vowel vs consonant ) or the pronunciation?
In Greek final 'n' is preserved if the first letter of the following word is vowel OR one of 5 specific consonants, FML.

Edit : found my answer, the English criterion is "vowel/consonant sound"

One is pronounced |wʌn| so it is 'a 100% '
« Last Edit: January 13, 2016, 09:28:38 am by vag »
Target training paces (min/km), calculated from 5K PR 22:49 :
Easy run : 5:48
Tempo run : 4:50
VO2-max run :4:21
Speed form run : 4:02

---

it's the biggest trick in the run game.. go slow to go fast. it doesn't make sense until it smacks you in the face and you're like ....... wtf?

Yep! Lot's of americans I know think it depends on the letter and not the sound.
They will also say things like "I'm gone for a hour" and such  :wowthatwasnutswtf:

I've noticed that every Romanian I've come across on a forum can write excellent English  :headbang:
