A Sprinter and His Workouts

Hey man,

I feel your pain! I spent almost a year with adductor problems, used to feel it when I sneezed and thought it’d gone again.

I’m 73kg, now that i’m not 100% focussed on sprinting I can afford to think about what my body looks like rather than pure performance and I feel it’s paying off. I used to do front squats but funnily enough I think it was an adductor issue that made me stop them. It’ll be earlier in my log but I think I got to about 110kg for reps. All I can say is don’t rush the rehabilitation buddy, if you feel ready one day but it’s a bit uncomfortable mid warm-up then don’t risk it.

Back Squats

8 x 111kg
6 x 119kg
2 x 4 x 127kg
6 x 119kg
8 x 111kg

Strength was there and I was regretting not going up by 5kg but on the way back down my legs were so tired and I have a few muscle twitches now.

Posted my pics on RMP (see below) and priority will be arms, traps and back which my workout is covering already but i’ll have a review and maybe change an exercise or two.
