Coaching last night. Today - Task: StrengthRoutine 7 from Infinite Intensity with a twist. Stopping the set if the rep speed drops. In practise that means forgetting about numbers, just continuing the set until the speed falls. Then stop. "When training with submaximal loads, speed is king. Apply maximum acceleration right from the start, stop each set when your speed slows, and forget about a specific number of reps for any set. Let your speed determine when it’s time to rest. Apply this simple principle to your training sessions and you’ll quickly develop new muscle and power" Gary EDIT: That felt great! Quality explosive reps, no grinds.Further reading: www.dragondoor.com/lifting_speed_matters/?idevd=B21FDC46E10211DF89F5AAB6DFD72085&idevm=e840f0ec899a44f8bfeca50ffb23ae35&idevmid=446646 |

Teaching this morning. Good effort!
Task: Stamina
20 minutes speedplay on grass. Felt a bit rough halfway through so a waste of time really. Never mind. Next time will be better ...

Oh I hate that. Sometimes it is my own fault for now having had proper fuel the night before.

Fueling up is important and we usually have pasta night on Fridays because of training on Saturday mornings.
Thank you for the excellent ideas again Gary regarding explosive, fast movements.

Monday - Coaching
Tuesday - Rest
Wednesday - Back to Doctors. Finally chest is clear.

Task - Strength
Routine 1 from Infinite Intensity, using reasonable weights and working by rep speed again instead of numbers.
Speed drops = weight down.
Simples!
