Lots of stretching ligaments, muscles and SMR with softball
81 lbs x 50 (at least) squat
I lost count so many times from concentrating on my form and the exertion. Had to go back to the last number I remember saying honestly not knowing if that was 1 or possibly 3 reps ago. Irritating.
Feel like form is better and getting more in touch with glut and hammies.
just did unspeakable things to a home made pizza and one of his buddies. The other one barely got away with his life. I imagine I’ll catch up to him sometime tonight.
I’m just in the middle of a book called Stretch to Win, definitely worth a look for us cripples who can barely lift.

That’s why I’m pimpin so hard, brah!
35 standard grip. Been a while. Despite being hungover and having eaten nothing but potato salad all day I felt pretty good.
7,6,4,5,6… don’t have sets outlined, just trying to reach a number. Next time definitely 40 though. Cant remember how many I did last time will have to check and make sure I’m not shortchanging myself.
edit: ghey, I was already doing 35. I owe five more sometime tonight.

I noticed man.
squats
25,25,20 x 81 lbs.
thought I was going for 75 but it wasnt happening. Almost fell over a couple times, form was breaking down, so next time 75. Got a good quaking afterword in the gluteal zone. Thats the name of the game as that is by far my most lagging…zone.
5 warm up pushups, static stretching, a little rolling of back and traps.
Military press
81 lbs. 10,10,10,9,6,4 = 49? I did 49? jesus Im a ghey. I thought I did 50. Also I have a nagging feeling that I double counted a set of 10 which would make it 39. But I think it really is 49.
Pushups
2 x 15, 1 x 12, failure.
Out of protein powder. Drank extra glass of milk.
Dude, wtf…are you serious;y ctippled?

Hey buddy- good stuff. Where did you get your articles from the first page on ankle, hip and shoulder stuff? I don’t have an SMF routine, and I could really use yours as i cannot touch my toes right now[/quote]
Two good ones: Strength Training, Bodybuilding & Online Supplement Store - T NATION
Yes sir. These are the ones. I had a good SMR session today and I realized that I read these a long time ago and now, some ten weeks later I am progressing in my ability to find and releive pain. Is just like working on your squat form. The more you do it the better you get, and the better the rewards will be in the end.
Now going back to these articles I’m spotting a lot of things I missed while I was still acquiring the basic concepts.[/quote]
Dudes, these are great. Many thanks.
How often do you usually do this? I mean I can tell from your training log that you do it very frequently, but if you weren’t as injured would you do this maybe twice a week? three times a week? before every workout?
^I don’t know that I can help you there man. I do it every day and if I miss a day things seem to get worse.
Doing it before workouts helps me reach the muscles that are inhibited by tight muscles so you may want to try that. I see no reason why you shouldnt start out once a week and see if more feels better.

If youre referring to the small weights I was using a weight set where I was houseitting out in the sticks. They only had a couple of plates. It was like a body by jake weight set not olympic bar or anything.
So no, Im not really crippled. I don’t walk with a limp. I’m usually the fastest person on the court, field etc, but when I finish, maybe the next morning my IT band retracts into my hip, I have knee discomfort and looseness and I cant put on my socks in the morning.
I suspect a lot of it is due to poor glut recruitment so I’m working on that. God help other athletes when I do have glutes and hammies. God help them all.
Edit: I have a couple other range of motion problems that I’m working on too. I probably need ART but that just ain’t gonna happen.
Speaking of being crippled^
Soft tissue, most of my body
40 yd sprints.
10 reps. Knee felt gnarly right away, probably from squatting, actually felt better as I went on I think.
Foot (plantar) pain around rep 7, went to 10. Cut sprints short.
Glad I actually went out because my diet was incredibly bad today.
no breakfast
thickburger fries and diet coke for lunch
assorted candy bars, croutons, 1/2 coke around dinner
2 eggs evening
then running
glass of milk
out of fish oil
kind of demoralized actually. Fish oil is a real bummer.
Like three different sessions of SMR because Id stretch and roll and go down to the park and there would be so many kids I couldnt get to the bars. This happened, like I said like three different times.
Anywho
10 sets of 5 pullups making 50. PR I guess. I need to get some heavy ass weights but I think im gonna have to wait 2 weeks till I have access to a gym. Oh well, gots to keep on keeping on.
(Lets nevermind that I walked home, ate a full meal [already prepared] between sets 9 and 10) making about a 15 minute rest between sets.

Hey man, we can’t all train like superman on steroids with ADHD, us cripples have to take it easy. lol
40 yds x 11. Thats plus one for the haterz.
Getting some good feel in my right glut and ham. Unfortunately that is my healthy side. Left feels weak actually. Still I think I feel some progress
really slowed down and doubled pressure on SMR today. It hurts. Hopefully I’ll notice some improvement soon or at least gather some placebo effect.
1 x 12 sprints, +1…haterz
good intensity and felt like good form. Can only be from that stretch to win book as diet and sleep have been atrocious, and I’ve smoked a few cigarettes today and over the weekend
6g fish oil before bed.
Why are you smoking again?
You’re sprinting NOW, soon you’ll be wheezing
