Gloop's training log

Thanks Chris - I think u may be right - next year I’ll definately try and ‘rev the engines up’ a bit more b4 the 100m

Busy day again - felt like c#*p - but got a session in -

Been out of action since friday :frowning: -
Damn Post-M-Syndrome left me feeling like nothing - my busy week just caught up with me I spose - I may train tomorrow if possible - and keep it light .
My C10 is on its way :smiley: the placebo effect is happening already and I’m looking forward to getting back into action

Still feeling like c*#p - so I thought I might as well run around and feel c#*p - I took it easy , it was good to get some fresh air ( despite pouring rain ) and I felt less guilt 4 at least having trained .

10 mins jog / skip
warm up / drills

2 x 3 x 100m 65-75% walk back rec

10 min Stretch

I was scared to do more than this - barely even got hot - but somethings not quite right so I’ll try and see this as a recovery week . If things don’t pick up soon I’ll go see the doc .

Felt a little better today - I’ve had a couple of electrolyte drinks whihc seem to have helped slightly . I still took it easy tho -

10 mins jog
300 abs
Rotator cuffs
Dumbell Bicep / tricep curls 2 x 6 for each
Shoulder press 2 x 6
Shoulder rows 1 x 6
Front / side / rear lats 2 x 6

All light

Finally - a decent run out -
Whatever was wrong with me balked at the prospect of ‘the hill’ so I did -
10 min jog / skip / drills
2 x 3 x 300m hill 2min rec btween reps 10 btween sets ( jog/walk back )
Stretch / warm down

I was pretty knackered after this but feel more confident about attempting a full weeks training next week - although I’ll see how it goes - I seem to have settled into my routine at uni now so should be ok .

Warm up / drills
1 x 60m progressive
6 x 30m hill accelerations 2 min rec + 25 abs
3 x 20m power skips
3 x 3 x 3 hurdle hops 2 min rec ( sets )

Bench 10 x 50kg 10 x 60kg

Warm down

Runs / plyo’s felt great
Weights felt bad so I kept it low then gave up totally - I’m gonna have to ease back in

15 mins x-trainer

500 abs

20 mins flexibilty / stretches

Startin to feel better physically - plus started with C10 - not loading .

10 mins jog / skip
drills / warm up
2 x 3 x 300m hills
200m jog / 100m walk rep rec ( 2 mins ) 8 mins between sets
jog / skip warm down
15 mins stretch

Felt easier and up to 4 secs faster than last session - getting back into shape - may start max strength phase / acc phase 1 next week

C10 seems to be getting into my system today - took 5 tabs - semi loading I guess just to get it into system quicker . It doesn’t sem to ‘dry’ you out in the same way that powders do -

I can also see I’m gonna have to hold back on volume as creatine does tend to give me the superman feeling while training with a resulting crash after the workout.

Felt pretty good once I got going -
it looks like I’m gonna be a bit mentally drained on fridays / I can’t train til about 8pm / with no easy track access - so I’m gonna make it a weights only day and heaviest day for deads and High pulls

This fits in with my plan nicely and I can give 100% effort for track mon & wed alternating potentation every other week on mondays and deadlifts every other friday - this should stop overload and keep me fresh

I’m gonna try and re-introduce more tempo next week at least twice hopefully 3 x - but this depends on time / energy
I’ve put on 2 kg ( a wacking 77kg now lol ) and I reckon I’m about 10 -12% BF - but this has been down to lack of tempo / comfort eating a little lol

This will be well and truly phased out over the next month or so :wink:

Best I’ve felt in ages - cadence seems better and 90 kg bench was controlled - I’m aiming for 110kg by christmas
I’m glad I’ve dropped the aux stuff - many on here suggested dropping it ages back but I was seeing it as repair work - truth is it was just doing more damage - live & learn eh :rolleyes:
I’ll probably only do it in recovery weeks instead of rather than as well as main lifts .
