I think i understand, the comment i think lance made just lift and run.

Lift to gain strength and Run to gain endurance.
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

CNS Fatigue: 7/10 (if this is referring to mental fatigue)

Warmup
 - Activation and mobility drills

Workout
 -1 x 3 x 150m (walk 150m back for rest)

Cool Down
 - Stretches

PR's: none

Comment: Went to gym first time ever, to see my max rep for squats, RDL, calf raises, dips, pull ups.

Squats: 5 x 40kg ( i could probably just be able to get 3 reps for 50kg but my form might have been not that good)
RDL: 5 x 50kg (i could do more, but someone interrupted me)
Calf Raises: 5 x 30kg (i didn't a good test on this one)

Pull ups: 6 (it was wide bar so was hard)
Dips: 16 (easier then pull ups)

Comment contd: I was about to squat 50kg but asked for a spotter, who said that i was doing it wrong i was leaning forward, he said i should keep my feet shoulder width pointing forward and said don't stick butt out but bend you knees and go down, it didn't feel right also he said stick shoulder back chest out which i tried nearly hyperextended my back and felt the weight nearly pushed my back way in because my back is arched. When i was RDL another guy said stick butt out and look forward and go down, that was hurting my back i was doing it where i keep my back straight lean over bending my knees with my butt going back as well and then back up i didn't curve my back.

Soreness: Hams, quads, glutes a little, a little lower back

nice! that stuff is fun.. i actually have one (hill, not stairs) nearby too believe it or not, pretty rare for florida. the hill here is like 45deg, which is sick.. 20 deg definitely works too tho, probably even better for sprint stuff.

Warm ups
 Ankle rotations
 3/4 mile jog (not as far as it looks, got to sprint at the end, which shows signs of improvement)

Workout
 High Knee Skip Drills (A Skip Drill)
 Butt Kicks x 2
 Skip for height
 Fast feet (strange one, very minimal knee lift)
 Step overs (karaoke)
 sprint to first cone, back then sprint to second and then back x 2

Cool Down
 light jog
 stretches

PR's: being able to sprint at the end of the 3/4 mile jog

Soreness: Shin's are quite sore

Comments: I feel that we are doing plyometrics, which i feel my legs are not stiff enough therefore the pain in the shin, also they couldn't take us to the grass because of over booked, i also heard someone discussing about the local track that they don't believe you should do weights light weights maybe but should just do plyos, not even squats. lol. Just want to use words i.e. plyos to amaze people and they guy that was saying this to a guy who wanted to improve his sprint had massive quads, hams and calves lol.

So am a bit sceptical joining but will go for the training, will still squat.

Weight: 60kg
Soreness: Hammies quite a bit, quads not so much, calves a little, my whole arm including shoulders feel dead and weak.
CNS: 7/10

Warm up:
  Mobility and Activation Drills (Forgot to do TKE's)
 
Workout:
  Squats 5 x 10 x 30kg
  Calf Raises 5 x 10 x 30kg
  RDL 5 x 10 x 30kg
  Pull ups 5, 5, 5, 5, 4 (Failed on last set)
  Dips 10, 6, 6, 5, 4 (last 2 sets were until failure unintentionally)

Cool Down:
  20 min walk back home

Stretches:
  Overall Body Stretch

PR's: Pull ups (could do more than 6, as bar was slightly less wider than the previous one tested on)

Comment: This was supposed to be a low intensity workout, but was still dead after, my hammies were not as painful as last time, when during the testing session. During the squats i was facing mirror, i don't know if i kept my upper body up, i tried to make sure i could read what was written on my shirt, a tip i read here, but the mirror is deceiving when facing towards it,
it makes it seem as if i am not going low enough but looking at side, i can see i go down to parallel.

RDL, i tried to these the way lancests advised vag, keep knees bent 2-3 inches, push hips back as far as possible, let weight travel inwards against my thighs and shin lightly of course and then push hips back but when i drive hips i always stand straight and not keep my knees still bent, sometimes i could do it but it felt weird when pushing my hips into the bar.

I couldn't bring my coat, so i was going to leave it in the lockers in the changing room and what i saw, i had to come back out, lets just say people were not embarassed in getting changed in front of each other bare and it was not in the showers, place where there is benches and lockers, there was even an old man all bare standing, facing the other way, i just quickly left and used the lockers outside the changing rooms, yuck never using that, even though it is for members.
:uhhhfacepalm: :pissed:

Pull ups was hard towards the end and the dips after was worse because tired from the pull ups, now i understand lower intensity does not mean its going to be easy it means its going to be long and tough.

Before i used to have 2 scoops of whey powder with 1 glass of milk and a third of a tablespoon creatine and it tasted it thick and too chocolatey, the problem was i was supposed to do 1 scoop for every glass of milk, so i had 2 glass of milks and 2 scoops and same amount of creatine, tasted much better. I don't add any other things in there like chocolate syrup or anything, tastes nice on its own.

old people love being naked in locker rooms.. unlike squatting, in a locker room full of naked old men, you'd want to keep chin up eyes up, not chin down eyes down lulz.

PR's: none

Comment: Woke up at 8am and started training at 10 am, so was late, classes start at 2pm, first had to try find an area which was 200m, so i was walking to some parts taking footsteps to 200m, some were too short so had too move to another area or walk a different way to cover a bigger distance, until i had to measure by going around a building which was just at 200m. Grass was wet, my shoes are not water proof so my socks got wet after the 200m workout. Also one way it was kind of a uphill, I realized this as i went back the other way i could feel that i was running down hill so last time was a downhill run until up to the 80 m straight.
Had to rush my activation warmups, so much to do i sometimes miss some, weights were ok, pull ups were failure, i could only do 2 on the last 2 sets, still sore from last workout. I was about to attempt 20 repper, but since that is the weight i am using and when trying i knew i was going to fail, so i am going to use it when i start high intensity squats, after i can drop to a lower weight, which should be a bit lighter and go for that 20 rep.
Came back and had to go straight to lecture with heavy legs.

PR's: None

Comments:
Already mentioned, it was first time on track, so was really excited using the track. It rained so it was track so that reduced my eagerness to use the track, nut never the less, it was fun using the track. We had a chance to do relay 4 x 50m, which made it even better. I was second because i wanted to recieve the tag by the fast guy and then i was on the bend, i like the challenge of the bend, never knew why people found it hard to get round the bend, so it was fun. We came first as we had a fast guy on the last position.

I had a chance to time my 100 after workout by racing the 2 fast guys, all i was thinking was run fast and get a good time and as i said already i got 15.07, i have a target to beat. So all in all a fun workout using the track.

Since it's friday, it was the busiest day, i woke up at 6 am, ate only cereal and cheese toast and left for the gym at 7:40am, because i do stretches at home. Got to work, RDL's starting to get heavy, so can feel that my grip is losing. Then had to finish before 10am, so i can walk back in time for my lectures, finished gym at 9:40am, had to go back, we had ran out of milk, so had to buy that, go home ,get changed quickly and go to lectures, which i arrive at 10:15, so was late, didn't miss that much. So will have to re-evaluate.

Since it was a low intensity session, i decided to do squats fast, instead of slowly. I use these step boxes for calf raises, which is useful because if i lose concentration i about to lose balance in the middle of the calf raise i my heels go all the way down and can touch the floor or i step back and step back on and carry on.

Comment:
All the exercise i did above was on my way shopping and back, i was doing fast jog, then initially run until i reach a goal i have in mind, stop walk for 1-2 min rest, start running again and rest and last run all the way to the supermarket. When i arrived hard to breath, chest a bit paining, but liked the endurance run.  :headbang:
Finished shopping 15kg shopping in each hand; real boss like. I would place it on my forearm, walk then place on my wrist and then hold it and i would alternate this way. On the way a bag broke, which had tins so placed it in the other bags, after some time bag ripped with tins falling through so i placed the tins, in the broken bag and placed that broken bag on one of the bags which was already full, so the handle of the bag i am overfilling was stretching; these were normal plastic carrier bags you would get from tesco, so that overpiled bag has taken a rectangular shape because of all the tins. On the way bag breaks with 6 pint gallons of milk so i hold them with the bag contain 5 ltr oil. using the handle the milk gallons have. so i am carrying 1 big rectangular shaped bag, with a string like handle, and the other hand is a bag containing a 5 litre oil as well as holding the 2 6 pints of milk.
We arrived on campus and decided to go the laundry, which was closer, as we had our dufflebag, i thinks that's what you call it, i put all my shopping in there) lifted in on my shoulder and went home, did some squats on the way as well as lunges, it was 2pm weekend so not much people around as uni is closed. Got home unpacked, phew.

So a good workout for the day especially endurance wise on a non workout day, lower back was a little sore when carrying the bags.
