This was the second set. Hope I'm doing it right. My left leg right hand combo was much more coordinated than the other side. Also seemed like the higher I got the non working leg the better the balance and strength.
Could have gone heavier but wasn't sure on the movement and more so the pressing strength.

PM- Daily mob routine as per program

That's perfect.  Only thing is give yourself a little more room and a bit more weight.  This is one of my favorite athletic exercises.  You need strength - I mean pressing Dumbbells requires strength... But then you also get a lot of core stability work with a bit more weight.  I

4/7/16 - 6am

Track workout-
Warm up as written- took it easy on the bounds
20m x 5
40 x 3
Flying 30m x 3
60 x 2
100 x 1

Was meant to do 100 for 2 sets of 3. Right hip flexor started to flare on the first 60m and I gave it a few more and thought it's better to be conservative here. Felt ok overall though which is nice. Was about 10 degrees when I was training but I ran in a jumper for all but the 100m so that was ok. Wasn't too concerned about times today and only timed the final 100m (16.57 timed on my watch). I was actually dark for the entire session which was actually kind of cool. 

First lifting session of the week later this morning so will update then.

Lifting Day 1-

Squats-
bar x 10, 60 x 5, 80 x 3, 90 x 1
105 x 4, 95 x 7, 7

Hip Thrust-
60 x 10, 10

Session got interrupted by my kids and I have a family dinner tonight to go to. Will be in the gym tomorrow morning to do my vert session and will complete the rest then (slant board leg raises, DB overhead and chins).

Squats felt great though. I have been a bit loose with the diet over the weekend so I'm no doubt carbed up but I would have struggled with these a week ago. Feels good especially after the sprints this morning. Need some new pants after squats though.

Yep. Understand T0ddday method. Actually have it saved on my computer. There was a k where the sets number should be so just wanted clarification on that. All good.

not a snipe at you, just a general question. sorry if it came off that way.

No stress made. Didn't take it that way.

squats look good. i disagree slightly with leonel: chucks are okay if you like 'em and i don't think the instability in your vid is that bad. but i'm a weightlifting shoe guy forever.

Form on squats looks pretty solid to me. The only thing I have to note is that I wouldn't squat in converse chucks as they don't offer any stability whatsoever and you can see that your foot collapses inwards quite a bit.

Thx mate. I'm on the fence with my shoes at the moment. Have Adidas power perfects but want to squat in flats to force myself to sit back more and I'm definitely more stable this way.

Also, not sure if this is an urban myth or not but I remember hearing years ago that shoes that provide ankle support also restrict ankle movement and end up applying stress further up the chain. Idk if true or not.
