Overall not a bad session, started out kinda slow on the sled pulls but things picked up towards the end. Friday’s are always brutal for us but it’s nice having a training mate because he’s there to push me through these tough training sessions. The weights were good today but the dep pushups sucked ass!! I have some video of the sled pulls that I will post later tonight.
Probably won’t post the video since the quality isn’t good, may wait until I get a better digital cam.
Damn I havent done any dep pushups in a while. I never look forward to it
Lol, today was a bad day. The sled pulls looked decent, I’m trying to correct my body position.
Looks good man, any way you could slow mo those puppies?
How much weight are you using?
11lbs free weight
10-12lbs sled weight
+/- a couple lbs.
How heavy are your sled pulls?
I know when I do Them I have between 25-50 lbs. It looked like you were getting no real resistance.
LOL, I was getting plenty resistance, ask CF how much resistance you need. I’m good based on his advice. It’s stupid to use a lot of resistance when you are doing high vol pulls, we save the heavy stuff when the vol gets lower.
Well When I did that much weight the vol was low. Maybe 5 reps. I really dont do much sleds. I like to use my resistance cable. Forgot what its called. The one charlie use to use. I like it because the resistance is constant from start to finish and I can come out the blocks with it.
I’ve been using a range between 15-25 lbs so far.
I counted 9 steps to 10 yds, so I’d say that the weight is fairly effective. Unless 9 steps is normal for you, which I doubt.
You must be talking about the Isorobic Exerciser. How do you set yours up?
Yep thats it. At one of the tracks I train at there is a fence behind where I do starts at. I just tie it up behind my blocks. Do you have one?
No I don’t. I almost bought one at one time, but I realized that I wouldn’t be able to use it because all the tracks I train at don’t have a fence near them.
I agree, most people don’t look at the surface also.
Any thoughts on my training mate? I think as he cont to get stronger most of his issues will take care of themselves.
