Hey yall, been peeking at peoples logs here and there its nice to see everyone still training hard. As for me ive been battling schizophrenia for some time, just trying to get back on my feet with organization, emotions and productivity. Trainings been pretty regular and well rounded but also pretty casual. Pretty average with everything.
Oh, also: my diet right now: keto vegan. Keto for symptom management, vegan just because, you know, moral reasons. But it messes around with training a lot cause i never have enough carbs for a good fast twitch workout. Theres a reddit about it called ketogains but i havent gotten through the whole faq yet.

Been messing around with posture MFR and stretches/activation a lot, its actually really cool, sometimes when I do the right prep exercises some crazy thing will happen, like once my jogging form changed radically and i had a much more optimal style, and another time my pullup form changed and i started churning them out a lot easier, also my breathing mechanics is the main reason i started the posture work.. so, still lots to work on. Hope everyones well!

I always feel pretty beat after a good sprint workout, this one was pretty tough. Noticed that if I cued myself to run really upright and swing my arms hard without oscillating my upper body I naturally shifted to longer more powerful strides with less effort (I think my legs switched to more tendon usage rather than muscle-y quad running). And my upper pecs would really feel it after every run. Just goes to show how important upper body mechanics can be in sprinting. But my upper body is comparatively weak (I bench like 185 tops right now) so If I were to utilize this style of running mechanics I would need better upper/lower balance.
