Long story short I really lack in top speed and would like some inspiration to how I should plan my training to make it a little bit better. I have some injury problems so I have to try to avoid running every day wich makes everything a bit more difficult. I'll probably going to go for cycling the days I wont run and vice versa. Endurance is not really a problem, just the lack of speed. I'm mainly thinking various intervals should be the way to go here. I have a few days already planned and they are as following: Saturday 24: Competition ~40min Sunday 25: Cycling ~5h Tuesday 27: Test competition ~50min (I can skip this one) Wednesday 28: Competition ~1h So yeah, what would the resident runners do? | ||

Try to get some deep tissue massage and see if that helps loosen stuff up. And do reverse hypers instead. See if those help (e.g. you can do them). It's likely a strain if it's in the erectors in whcih case stuff from here should help too: http://www.eatmoveimprove.com/2010/01/on-muscle-strains/ Site should be back up this evening btw. ok i'll give the reverse hypers a go. that was a very good read btw.

Eating A LOT... then as for training, it's really different for everyone. I really have to say that those 2.5lb plates are your best friends. Adding them after each workout really adds up. 2.5lb plates... I love you. My training style is mostly evolved over the past 5 years from basic bodybuilding volume routines, to DC training (way too unexperienced for me to get into), to Madcow's 5x5 (which I highly recommend), now on Wendler's 5/3/1. Wendler's 5/3/1 forces you to make PRs (personal records) at different rep ranges every week, then eventually work to a new 1 rep PR for that exercise. | ||

during pike compressions, should I be breathing? because, well, pike compressions are hard. they don't make me cramp at all actually but they just seem like I really have to pull my legs up so hard, and when I do that I can't breathe at all. to breathe I have to let off a little bit. so should I let off and breathe or just pull up as hard as I can during the 10 seconds? hey, furthermore, when i do the sit and reach stretch should i be pointing my toes forward, or back? and then also the same question but for when I do the compression. | ||

You put me eto shame in terms of body weight to lifting ratio, but you're also 6 inches shorter lol. I think my bench is around 285, squat 405, deadlift 435. I'll see what i can do about catching up to you. Not really a power lifter though, i just do it to get stronger for rugby. | ||

It is possible to breath while doing them, but if you're having trouble then you probably can't yet. Most max effort skills you won't be able to breath at first for, but once you get stronger and have more control you can (like handstands if you're doing those as well). It's fine to go valsalva (aka hold the breath) during any exercise.. as long as it's not too long so that you pass out or something. 10s for these is definitely OK. Uh, as a gymnastics purist I'd say point the toes. It really doesn't matter, but when you start doing skills like handstands, back levers, planche, etc. it looks cleaner/nicer if you point them. Most BBoys do flairs with flexed feet and it kinda looks awkward (to me at least). | ||

It must take a ridiculous amount of commitment, practice and talent. However, I'm quite happy that I'm not a 120lb, 5'3 guy | ||
