Ah! Well I have been training hard for the past six weeks. Been a bit too busy to update this but here goes…
Training
High skips 20m
Sprint drills 2 X 20m
150m X 4 ( 70%-60%-70%-60%)
Diet
Been eating about 3500-4000cals a day, all clean food, lots of protein
Injuries
Groin has fully healed, but it gets tight and sore veary easily If I dont keep my hip flexors and quads stretched and flexible. So thats my main priority.
Having some problems with lower back and neck (getting better) as they are still sore and joints are still acting up after my crash. I dont think this affects my performance though as I’m clocking pb’s in training.
20m - 2.45h
40m - 4.6h
I know they are evil hand times but still hand time pbs for me.
Other
I’d also like to put in a shameless plug (:D) for Applied Kinesiologists. I was getting viruses, as in sore throats and colds, every 2-3weeks which was REALLY messing up my training at the start of year and prevented me from competing in a lot of competitions. So I went to see this d00d about it. At first I was VERY skeptical, as he claimed he could fix me from just touching some points on my body (accupressure). To my amazement it worked and I have not been sick for a long time! My training capacity has also increased, I can train way more than I could previously. I think it has also made me faster which I’m not complaining about . So any dedicated atheltes having problems should definately see one asap!!!
:mad: Today was on the track and it sucked. Was raining and temperature was 5deg celcius.
Long warm up

Standing 60m TIMED @ 100% got 6.78h which pisses me off because the conditions screwed me over and my first 15m were terrible and unbalanced. I know I can go sub 6.6h.
