I menat to reply re the gluten and lactose intolerance. Hang in there and be patient.
Why not post something in the nutrition section there are some clever people here who may be able to help.
I may have jumped the gun. Going to get sum tests done later in the week. But for now I’m on a elimination diet to see If I start feeling better (less viruses). If that goes well, 4 weeks, then I’ll slowly start introducing foods again to determine the problem. Most likely from what I have been told, It’s not that my body can’t handle these things its that I have been consuming far to much gluten/dairy products and my body may be sensitive to either one cuasing me some problems. Either way its early days and It could be completely wrong but Im willing to investigate it.
BTW 
Playing a game of social rugby on saturday, first game ever! lol. I’ve been getting shit all year to play atleast one game. I’ll probably do my speed and plyometric work a few hours before hand. I’m only playing 20mins so It shouldn’t be a problem. 
A lot can happen in 20 minutes of rugby :rolleyes:
Ahh I see now regarding the allergies etc, hope it turns out to be nothing too major.
Sat: Not at 100% so workload cut

lmao, was pretty fun. a bit of biffo. damn fun. we beat the diks
Who did you play?

Shit, well I am allergic to gluten, seeing my doctor sometime this week to talk about it. I dont know about lactose yet but. That means no more, gluten for life! Huge lifestyle change 
I suppose the benefits of feeling better and being able to train twice as hard are going to be awesome :o 
Lower workout:
Box squats:
60kg X 8
80kg X 3
90kg X 10
95kg X 10 (PR)
Plate jumps:
1 X 8 (2.5kg)
SLDL:
50kg X 5
65kg X 10 (PR)
67.5kg X 10 (PR)
Plate jumps rock, basically they are a standing long jump but you have plates in each hand and use them to jump further.
Refresh my memory, it is nearly 20 years since I lived in ChCh.
Don’t sweat the gluten, it is not that uncommon and the range of foods is getting larger all the time. Expect to feel heaps better.
Good work on the Box squats.
Syrups = Christ College
Yea Gluten free is okay, I have awesome energy and can train more. Cooking at home is not a problem as there are many alternatives such as cornflakes, buckwheat, potatos, oats/mays, gluten free pasta, gluten free bread ETC so thats easy. Its just eating out will be a bit harder because I dont know whats being put in the food. I always ate healthy so I’m not concerned about what goes down my mouth as long as it helps me (haven’t had mc donalds in 4 months) so I don’t feel like I’m missing out on anything
Training:
Plyometrics
- Continuous jumps
- Medball Jumps/Medball throws
- Sprint drills
- Ab and core work
- Some continuous shuttle running ( 30seconds at 75%, Relay runs, 25 seconds at 100%, relay runs)
I had a feeling that was it but wasn’t sure.
Wow amazing you have found such a dramatic turnaround already.
Re eating out, it appears to me that more places are allergy aware and accomodating you may be surprised, mind you it depends wha you are eating but if you aren’t visiting the Land of the Golden Arches it helps
Yay! Well I am not lactose intolerant tests came back today. Which is great because the #1 favourite is milk!
I’m getting a new programme today - heading to train now.
Kick ass, can’t imagine what it woulda been like without milk, well non soy milk at least.
Haha, me too. I had no idea you were still following this thread
Training:
Warm up
200X4 @ 75%
The 200s were hard because, I was doing them in flats, it was freezing, my legs were sore from gym pbs, and a huge headwind. Kept them all under 27s-28s though.
What sort of rest between?
That’s a relief re lactose
I needa see how you’re coming along. And maybe I’ll need to steal some ideas from now on 
2 X 200m @ 75% walk back recovery
5 min rest
2 X 200m @ 75% walk back recovery
I’m not actually in the clear yet with milk, I could still have an allergy to milk (protein problem) so I’m hoping thats not the case :o
I felt it today. What it feels like to run with 10.8x speed. Was great, past 2 months and I have everything back. Now its time to improve to a new level.
I cut my work load by quite a bit today because I was feeling a little bit drained and had a cold. Maybe it’ll be a while yet till this gluten free thing fully kicks in.
60m @ 95% Full recovery
60m @ 95% Full recovery

I forgot to post this but if any of you are reading this I would greatly like an opinion!
The main point of all this training is to win the 100m/200m at highschool schools nationals. Its still about 4 months away, but In two months time I need to decide what events I’m going to enter in.
Last year, only three months of training, I entered just the 100m. Got 10.99 and 10.83 the first day and the second day I could only get 11.38 and 11.31 in the semi-final and final because I was so sore!!! Obviously i’ve done more training now but If I do the 100m/200m I have to run 8 races. Thats 1.2k of speed work over two days!! This is BS, they do this to “give lesser athletes a better chance”. At the cost of tiring out the fast ones . But anyways I am stuck at the delema of what event(s) to run.
I definately don’t want to enter both IF I am not fresh for the finals. I can cruise through rounds but I dont want to be so tired I can’t muster PB runs when it counts. I would not mind just running either the 100 OR the 200 but even deciding which of the two is a big decision.
From what I know of last season there r 5 guys who can go sub 11. I dont know how much they have improved since then but I would say there would only be three including me who could go sub 10.80 with the right conditions. If I enter the 100m there is A LOT less room for error. If I screw up my start I’ll probably loose. If I screw up my acceleration I’ll probably loose, If I don’t relax I’ll probably loose. Not that I’m not confident about my ability to put together a perfect race but just saying :eek:
If I do the 200m I am almost garanteed a medal. Coach thinks with a little more work on curve I should polish off sub 22s very easily and that doubling my 100m time would not be a problem because I am very effecient over the last 100m. So If I run 21.6x I’d win by a lot. There are only three cats I know of based on last year who would have a prayer of running sub 22, and one of them will probably just run the 400. Also there is much less pressure and room for error with the 200, e.g. I can get a lowsy start and probably win.
I’d love to win the 100 because the guy who does that claims fastest schoolboy in NZ. Doing just the 200 and winning that would be cool, but not as impressive although a very safe bet. Winning them both would be fantastic, but with this comes the risk of messing up and not winning either :o
Yea LONG post but if you give your opinion, thanks.
