I’ve seen your training and your team’s and to be honest they don’t look that similar except the warm-up and gs stuff. I think your *team’s training looks a lot like davidw’s proposition (or whoever that michael guy is) from a structure point of view. The main difference is also prob. that insane “general fitness” volumes you do (or at least did at some points) vs your team’s.
Well I was referring to what I gave them for Dec&Jan.
General fitness? Yes my general fitness is great. I can run 10 rounds of the 100m in 12.5.
lol yep. As I said, insane volumes. Wonder what you could run a 400m in right about now.
Finally pr’d with 6.67 55m (from 6.72) at the age of 28. I did it by outsourcing as much as my life as possible. I stopped thinking/worrying about my training so mcuh and just did a coach’s program and replaced most self-soft-tissue work with a rolfing therapist.
Thanks to everyone here who has helped over the years providing advice leading me to do this. Too bad I didn’t run this time back in college because I would’ve probably won my weak conference.
good job man, now time to hit 6.5.
fri 12/7- 7.26 60m submax
sat 12/8- 7.11pr, 7.22(fried)
So that’s a .1 PR after my previous PR in 2002. Heavier, not stronger (weights), not more explosive (jumps), much more mobile (massage), big PR. One day this will all make sense…
or not
Good work on the PR
Perfect conditions.
11.14 +2.5 (will I ever break 11? …argh)
22.61 +0.1 (haven’t run over 50m fast in training which makes this good result interesting)
Note to self, PR’ing by like .1 to 10m changes your race distribution a bit… I felt like Leonard Scott (only about 1sec slower). Fantastic start then died.
whats your PB in the 100m mort?
11.11 +2.8 in 2006. I’ve also run 11.13, 11.13, 11.16 (and now 11.14). Not competing frequently anymore has caused me to forget my own advice which is to not try to go 110% at the start (same mistake I made in 2002 with the 11.16).
