But that's exactly what i said... my first 'blog-post' was referring to athletes caught in standard schemes ( like your 5x5 ) and 2nd 'blog-post' was referring to seeing some articles and trying new methods ( like that tmuscle you mentioned ).
Anyway , 2nd post wasn't personal , i remember reading in your log what you just stated above , that you like to read but cant plan. Well many people are like that , then they just pick a routine and start it , and pretty soon after they discover another interesting article that has another routine , they jump to that and so on... That was my 'target group' for the previous post , not just you , so i generalized :D

Well, personal coaching/training beats any article.
Its amazing that adaqui does that for all those people... I mean it takes so much time and effort , and he's not just making a workout template , he is doing it workout by workout , adjusting/regulating it etc , true personal training , word , respect!!!

19 August 2010

DOMS:
Hamstrings : 0/5
Calves : 1/5 , slight pain when deliberately contracted.
Glutes : 3/5 , medium pain in every contraction.
Quads : 5/5 , PAINNNNN , even the slightest leg movement causes serious pain , cant walk normaly , cant sit or stand without hands assistance.

Wanted to do upper body today but changed it to conditioning/recovery workout to hopefully get some blood flow.

-10 mins light jog

-5 mins rest

-10x80m 'sprints'
Was pushing as much as pain allowed me , times showed that this limit was 30-40%.
Was restarting every minute like always , this time it was ~30sec run / ~30 sec rest.

-5 mins rest

-10 mins light jog

i've had that happen only a few times (extreme quad soreness). it's always after coming back from some kind of detraining.. funny how fast they adapt though after 1 session.

looks great overall, sure things can change a bit, but it is very solid from the get go.

on STIM, calves could be like 4x5 imo.. a little heavier than the 12's would be, but not going max of course to prevent any kind of strain..

peace!

Hah , glad you liked , wasn't too hard to plan that anyway , its last year's workouts and your typical ratio example...
Its like an expanded and slightly improved version of last season's ( successful ) 13 weeks experiment.
KISS ( keep it simple stupid ) FTW! :D

Yes , i had that in mind as we talked about it earlier this year.
Problem is that in the specific machine that i do the calve raises , max load = ~370-400lbs , which is a load that i can easily do 12-15 reps in great form.
Ill probably switch to 4x5 one-leg-calf raises for the stim so i can get heavier load.
Hey , what about standing calve raises , are they worth doing? Id guess the standing ones are way better as its kinda more combound and natural movement...

awesome stuff and the new vid is sick man

was curious the custom program you did by kelly, was that the individualized service thing he offers on his site where it's like 150 first month and 50 every month thereafter, or just somethign he wrote up for as a favor based on how you did a lot of vjb and such

also, how would you evaluate all the stuff that you have done by kelly as well as by adarqui, and how would you compare the two?

Thanks man , i appreciate it!

The custom stuff was nothing too fancy , it like you said , ive been doing the VJB and his ultimate split and mailing with him for like 2 years by then so he just helped me plan it.

It was based on this article:
http://www.higher-faster-sports.com/templates.html
And a few Kelly's modifications, nothing fancy at all , just a basic template trying to implement in it some other principles Kelly things high off , like the "money set" method and the glute-oriented lifting.

I cant really compare Andrew and Kelly, to be honest i dont even want to.
I need to say though that i highly appreciate the help i've had from both and that i have ultimate respect for their personalities beyond their S&C substance, i consider them more like 'friends' or 'training buddies' than 'coaches' if that makes any sense...

thanks man! yup, I like to form friendships with people rather than just tell people what to do etc.. definitely have formed alot of 'online friends' over the years, and i don't consider them/u etc  to be anything less than a real friend.
