went back to steep hills and all ok.

Planned on going up to 112 on Squats but L knee gave a very slight tweak on 107 so thought play extra safe and stop. Can’t recall last time I did any direct arm work.

all fine body wise although ran out of puff on last few reps at track. Fine to 40m but the 50s were a bit so so.

Really not sure what I will end up doing, am enjoying the variety at present and will see how things go. Intend racing and think I should be ok but not sure whether to do 100 / 200 or some 400’s. I’ll see how things develop.

Perhaps a little too much volume John! - I would leave out the 50’s and maybe do just 1 x 40 if your going to do EFE’s. Just my thoughts

you are probably right, the EFE ended up being almost run throughs.

calf all fine. I actually think the issue is caused by lack of calf endurance. When it ‘goes’ it appears to be related to fatigue in that rep. I did a high volume acceleration session last Saturday with absolutely no issues but at 260m it went. It is the same spot all the the time so obviously a weak area that it appears I will have to work on with very high rep calf raises from the floor.

I conformed my theory tonight

thought I would see how tempo went and it was interesting as the 100’s were a comfortable 70-72% with absolutely no issue then BANG which is in keeping with my theory. In an odd way I was pleased as I actually have an idea what to do know to treat it. …hahahaha shit I’m funny sometimes :stuck_out_tongue:

calf sore :o which isn’t a good sign on hills. Decided to drop PC which absolutely sucks and do Deads.

John - im wondering how Tight or Sore or Weak your Tibilias Anterior muscle is? Here

When clients keep getting sore calfs, no matter how much stretching etc they do, then i always 1st go and look at this muscle. (there might be other issues, but i rule this one out 1st)
Foam rolling works a treat - typically you’ll find the extreames sore, either up top near your knee or lower near your ankle (typically).
Self massage
Tens
Then you need some strengthening
a 10lb sledge hammer works great as the handle prevents you from sitting in a bunched up position.
i go for 20reps - thereabouts.
wk 1 - i keep away from the burn
wk 2 - do about 3-4 reps into the burn
wk 3 onwards, go for broke

Its a stability muscle, and if you burn it right away in reps, you wont be able to walk…

As for stretching it, most Thigh stretches tend to do a good job at the same time.

Oh - and if you can, (access) HEAVY calf raises help too - more so with a 3-4second pause at the very bottom Stretch postion - doing around 10reps or so, not really focusing on the top full range, your more after getting the muscle working with heavy weight and full stretching. I got up to some serious heavy weight myself, and calfs grew maybe 1cm… Calfs love it.

Oh - yeah, and Golf ball foam rolling on your FEET arches. yeah baby yeah, feels awesome

pardon? Sorry can’t follow what to do :confused:

current fav song Bold, that is Jimmy Barnes’ daughter

oh, sorry man :frowning: silly me
basically, your sitting down on a chair, your Heel up on a step or brick or such so that you can pivot your foot up and down (your heel is the pivot point). Place the weight (or hammer) on your toes, then pivot your foot up and down, holding onto the weight for support.
Or you can use your other foot as the Brick or Step??

Hope that makes sence?

a lot more thanks :cool:
