L1 Journal Pages p118 - p122 (chapter) p180 - p193 (movement guide) **Topics to Discuss** - What is the power zone? - Why is the front rack of a strict press different than a front squat? - How do you fix excessive layback in the strict press? Can you give me 3 examples of different ways to fix this? - Can you come up onto your toes during a push press or is that a sign of a fault occurring? - Is the 30% statement truly realistic? If so, why don't we practice squat jerks regularly to reach that potential? - What do you both think is the most commonly missed fault in teaching any of these three movements? - Why is the strict press not included in the push press progression, and neither included in the push jerk progression. Don't they all layer on one another? --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/besthouroftheirday/support

Gyms have been around for centuries, and with the advent of technology, they've only gotten better. Today's gyms are equipped with top-of-the-line software that can track your progress and help you reach your fitness goals. One such software is called Push Press, and it's changing the way people work out. In this episode, we'll take a closer look at what Push Press does and how it can help you get in shape. Stay tuned!In 2008, Dan Uyemura joined a CrossFit gym and immediately discovered that their gym management technology was a pain to operate. It was inefficient and complicated, and it ruined the customer's experience. He went out to find an alternative but discovered that all of the industry's software was the same. So he did what any entrepreneur would do: launched a gym with a group of fitness-obsessed, tech-savvy hustlers. While working a full-time job, owning a gym, self-funding, and building software all at the same time meant a lot of late nights.And it was all worthwhile. PushPress now has over 2,000 satisfied customers that use it to run their fitness companies!Check more on Dan on his socials:https://www.facebook.com/pushpresshttps://www.instagram.com/pushpress/https://www.youtube.com/user/PushPressApphttps://www.linkedin.com/company/pushpress/https://twitter.com/pushpressapp linkedin.com/in/danuyemurahttps://www.instagram.com/danielsanBe sure to check out this episode of the #StoriesthatSellPodcast.

I interview Adam Moriarty about how injuries and university led to a dip in motivation to keep fit, and how he made a mental shift and decided to move away from that mindset. On the 29th of April 2021, Adam will be carrying out a six-hour fitness challenge. Every hour, for six hours, Adam will be carrying out a 1 MILE RUN, 50 PULL UPS, 50 PUSH PRESS, 50 DEADLIFTS, 50 BENCH PRESS, 50 SQUATS!Adam will be doing this in order to raise money and awareness for two fantastic organisations: Mind charity and The OddBalls Foundation. You can donate on the link in his Instagram biography.OddBalls is a charity that we at OBURFC work very closely with. If you’re not familiar with OddBalls, they’re a foundation that was set up with the aim to raise awareness and money to help reduce the number of deaths caused by testicular cancer. They do this through the sale of their clothing range, recognisably their pretty funky boxer shorts, hosting fundraising campaigns, having university ambassadors do public awareness talks and many other things. They really are doing some great things!Mind offers information and advice to people with any degree of mental health concerns. I think we can all put our hands up and say that we’ve had our own struggles during this unprecedented time. The pandemic has caused the highest suicide rates in two decades, so now is a more important time than ever to address this pressing issue and just get people talking about mental health.

So the Forged SUMMIT is officially a wrap. I'm drained mentally, physically, and emotionally after the 2 intense days I spent together with the men who attended the SUMMIT plus all of the athletes that threw down within the Forged GAMES. I'm happy to note that I hit my Back Squat goal of 450 and my Push Press at 275. I didn't hit my Deadlift gaol of 550 but I'm OK with that considering 515 felt easy. I just didn't want to push it knowing I've got the Spartan Ultra Race coming up this next Saturday.

In this episode, we're talking about some gym updates that include Push Press, Dustin Murphy, and general Open updates. Speaking of The Open, its is just around the corner, which means we have just a couple more weeks to get ourselves in tip-top shape. In this ‘programming' episode, Coaches Ryan and Evan discuss what the next few weeks will look like in the gym, and why these next few weeks are so crucial to getting us ready to compete in the Open. Even if you're not technically a competitor, the games are a great way to test yourself to see how your fitness level is progressing. (So even if you think this topic isn't for you, listen up because it is.) This episode also discusses the importance of easy days, days where we're not loading a lot of stress onto our body, and why it is imperative that you listen to your body and take rest days when you need them.

American Strongest Man 2018 details can be found here. Sean Demarinis BIO - 32 years old, born and raised in CA. Currently live in south Orange County. Most famous for the beaches, weather, disneyland and reality shows about privileged housewives and teenage drama. Im in sales and also work part time as a strength coach for East West Strength in Costa Mesa, CA. Strongman/weight lifting is my only hobby. The demand it takes in and out of the gym occupies the majority of my free time. However, i still enjoy going to the movies, dinner, beach, amusement parks etc. Just try and avoid too many physical activities, the risk of getting inured is haunting lol. Notable Competition history: 4x CA strongest man. 2 HW and 2 MW titles 4x America's strongest man 105k MW and HW pro status 2nd place at WSM 105k in 2016 in Ireland 3rd place at the Ultimate strongman world championships 2018 in Czech Republic What hobbies do you have outside of strongman? Sleeping, movies, beach, eating What got you into strength sports? Where did your lifting journey start? Lifting begin when i was 12 years old. I was chubby and wanted to make an improvement. My mom actually showed me my first exercises. Really lifting or competitive lifting started when i played football in HS. What was your inspiration or mentor in strength sports? Arnold was a huge inspiration but id have to say what really drove my passion was competing. I really enjoy being able to test myself against others. Biggest strength numbers: Squat - 710 Bench - 501 Deadlift - 800 Push Press - 400+ Stone - 400+ Log - 405 Axle Clean n Press - 385 Farmers Walk - 360 Yoke - 1000 Any I might have missed - 250 DB. 900 18’’ axle DL. 775 axle DL from the floor Any injuries that you had to deal with? Quad tendon rupture off the bone, torn quad muscles, compartment syndrome, pec tears, proximal bicep tendon rupture...and a million other small sprains and tears. How did you know that strongman was a good fit? I didn't at first. It took me 8 month of getting my ass kicked to feel like i was getting good enough to become a professional. However, i did take 4th out of 14 in my first show ever so based on that, i felt i at least had a shot to do well. How many hours a week would you train before a strongman competition? If the show is on Sat, my last raining day is Tuesday. Maybe 1-2 hours, light work to keep the blood moving and muscles staying primed to lift. What do you take on a regular basis to supplement your training? I work with a nutritionist and help with this but mostly the same things most people take...Vitamins, fish oil, protein powders etc
Todd and I have been a little slow in bringing out new episodes recently, and I hope you can forgive us. In the last three weeks we've had Todd going on holiday to France, me going to Germany, my mum's 60th birthday, my 30th birthday, and we've both moved (or are in the process of moving) flat. Trying to fit in podcasts to that insane schedule has been challenging. But we're back this week with an episode on creating the perfect training program. The Perfect Training Program I've talked before about the importance of not focusing on perfection, and instead focusing on getting the work done. But it should also be said that I have created 5,000+ training session plans in my life (complete estimate) and have gotten rather good at it. No two people are exactly alike, and as such no one training program can suit everyone. So this training program is going to be aimed at my most common client: Male, looking to build some muscle and lose weight who has been training for a few months but isn't getting anywhere. To start off with, we're going to add in some of the basic lifts: Deadlifts, Barbell Squats, Bench Press, Lat Pulldown, Bent Over Row, Romanian Deadlift, Push Press, and Lunges. These are the big exercise building blocks that you create your program around. Next you would add smaller exercises, isolation work that targets single muscle groups. These would include: Bicep curls, tricep extensions, hamstring curls, leg extensions, rear delt flyes, face pulls, and abdominal crunches. As we are aiming to lose weight and build muscle (something borderline impossible for experienced lifters) we are going to use a slightly higher rep range than you would for a strength training program. The only exception to this will be the deadlifts, as this exercise only suits low reps. We will split the training sessions into an upper/lower split, which works well if you train 4 times per week. If you only train 1-3 times per week, then a full body program works best. Rest periods should be around 60-90 seconds per set, and 3 minutes for the deadlifts. But you should definitely listen to your body at first. If you aren't particularly fit then you will need a little more recovery time. Make sure that you are properly hydrated throughout, and that you have an emergency banana/isotonic drink (in case of emergencies). Anyway, the session looks like this: Session One Hamstring Curls 3 x 12 Deadlifts 3 x 4-6 Leg Press 3 x 12-15 Lunges 4 x 10 Session Two Bench Press 3 x 12 Lat Pulldown 3 x 12 Seated Row 3 x 15 Push Press 3 x 8-12 Abdominal Crunches 3 x 20 Session Three Barbell Squats 3 x 8-12 Romanian Deadlifts 3 x 12 Glute Bridges 3 x 8-12 Leg Extensions 3 x 12 Session Four Face Pulls 3 x 15-20 Incline Bench Press 3 x 12-15 Close Grip Lat Pulldown 3 x 12 Rear Delt Flyes 3 x 12 Bicep Curls 3 x 12 Tricep Pressdowns 3 x 12 So there you go, my version of a perfect training program. If you follow this exactly you should get some seriously good results. Of course, as always if you have any questions please contact me and I can help you sort it out. Beer Of The Week: Spaten Oktoberfestbier This week's beer was a special Oktoberfest beer from Spaten. It is specially brewed in Spring to be ready for the Oktoberfest in September/October (which I attended this year). The beer is really decent, and is quite strong (5.9%). The bottled beer tends to taste quite a bit stronger than the draught beer, but both are excellent. We will be going a lot more in depth on Oktoberfest in our next podcast. We also discussed the various differences between bottled, canned, and draught beers, and some examples of beers that we preferred in each form.

The RunRunLive 4.0 Podcast Episode 4-345 – Wilson Horrell – Lift Heavy Run Long (Audio: link) Link MarathonBQ – How to Qualify for the Boston Marathon in 14 Weeks - Hello my friends and welcome to episode 4-345 of the RunRunLive Podcast. We've got a full agenda for today – so I won't babble on too much. I've got an interview for you with Wilson Horrell from lift heavy-run-long who has a fascinating and educational back story. I had done an interview with Josh LaJunie who is an ultra running vegan from New Orleans – but I messed up the recording and I figured we just had a vegan last episode. The eat vegan on $4 a day got a lot of feedback. Some folks were very enthusiastic about Ellen's message, some were less enthusiastic and wanted me to balance that out with some fat-adaptive athletes. Which I will at some point. My personal opinion is that nutrition is quite specific to the individual and you need to find what works for you. That process may involve some coaching but keep an open mind. As athletes we have the added wrinkle of our performance to think about. I'm also going to treat you to my Eagle Creek Marathon race report, but true to form it came out so long that's all I'm going to be able to fit into this episode. So I'll put the interview up front and the race report on the back and we'll call it a day! Since I'm pretty sure I'm going to run long I'll cut my comments short. … The RunRunLive podcast is Ad Free and listener supported.

Links are in the show notes and at RunRunLive.com … Just a quick sentiment … On Plateaus… One of the interesting asides in the book I read last week about memory was a short bit on what to do when you practice something but hit a plateau. I think we all know this works. Initially when you learn a new discipline, whether an exercise routine or really, anything new it your learning follows the same basic arc. Initially it's hard and you learn slowly. Then you hit a stretch of rapid improvement. Eventually you plateau. And then you're stuck. You push harder, you practice more hours, but you're stuck. The example they use is typing. Most typists get to a certain point and don't get any faster. They get to the ‘good enough' plateau. How do you get unstuck? How do you get through the plateau? Science shows 3 things that you can do, or at least try. Mindset, discomfort and approach. .” The first one is mindset. When you reach that ‘good-enough' plateau you self-talk yourself into being as good as you're going to get. Your mind says, “Well, since I'm not getting better anymore I must be at the top end of my ability.” Like everything else once we let our minds tell that story, we internalize it and it manifests. Like your parents and coaches always told you “Whether you think you can or you think you can't, either way you're right!” You have to fix your mindset. The people who break through performance plateaus essentially don't take ‘no' for an answer. I'll give you an example from my book on how to qualify for the Boston marathon. When I talk to runners about running a qualifying time they will invariably say “I could never do that!” I always ask a dumb question – “Why not?” If you reframe your mindset then the question becomes “How do I?” instead of “I can't” – sometimes it's as simple as making that mental switch. The next that has proved to be effective in breaking through plateaus is to force yourself you're your discomfort zone. In the typing example this would mean forcing yourself to type at a faster rate even though you are making more mistakes. Even if you fail a lot – you assume the higher level of performance and hang in there until the plateau is broken. The key here is you have to really push to spend time in a place where you will most certainly fail consistently at first. Embracing the failure is part of the key to breaking the plateau. Starting at a higher level of performance and sticking with it until you catch up is the other part. Both are very uncomfortable. The marathon qualification example is to start with the training paces you need to run to qualify. Even though at first you won't be able to maintain them. It will hurt and you will fail. If you stick with it you can find a new level of performance. Getting yourself to perform above the comfort zone (plateau) works hand in hand with the mindset of believing you can do it. Lastly, when you think you can do it, and you force yourself out of your comfort zone into the failure zone you will be forced to find new approaches. In a sense you can't operate at that level and it forces you to abandon your existing approach and try approaches that support that higher level of performance. You will find the consistent areas where you are making mistakes – the failure points. Just like lowering the water level reveals the rocks, upping your forced performance reveals your weaknesses. Then you can devise focused practice to fix these failure points and enable the new level. It's a virtuous cycle. When you get to the point of re-evaluating your approach a coach or an expert can be a big plus. They have seen those mistake patterns before and can help you fix them faster. In the typing example, maybe you find that when you speed up you consistently miss the ‘b' key or the semi-colon. You can devise exercises that focus on those. Or maybe switch to a Dvorak keyboard layout to totally change the approach. In the qualification example forcing yourself to run those faster-than-comfortable 1600 repeats will reveal flaws in your form and mechanics. A coach might quickly help you fix it. Either way you'll quickly realize you can't run on your heels and hold those paces. There you go – simple way to break through a plateau. Give it a try. On with the show. Section one – Voices of reason – the conversation Wilson “BeefCake” Horrell Hey Chris, My name is Wilson Horrell, sometimes referred to as “Beefcake”, and I am a 39 year old, married, father of 2 children (ages 10 & 7). I am a raging drug addict and alcoholic, who after years of living and unhealthy life and blowing through a $2 million dollar windfall, found running, CrossFit, and people to be my new addiction, as I sobered up and began the process of picking up the pieces. I started running 5k's as an effort to stop smoking and lose some weight. I found a community of trail runners who welcomed, not only me as a person, but were also open to my slow pace. My love of the trail came about immediately, as I enjoyed the lack of pounding that the soft dirt placed on my over-sized body. I heard about Lift Heavy Run Long's 50mile &400 Deadlift club. I set my sights on this, and ran various distances until this goal was achieved. Since I started on my fitness journey in 2013, I have participated in numerous CrossFit events, some obstacle races, a couple of marathons, a handful of 50k's, and a 50-miler last November. I am registered for the Tour D' Spirit 24-Hour Race in Memphis, TN on Sept 30-Oct. 1 I am an incredibly average runner, as well as average athlete. I enjoy the endurance sports, as I like spending long periods of time in introspection. I like the slower paced events, and enjoy listening to the internal struggle that exists between the body and the brain. I do not take for granted the role that people in the running community, combined with the CrossFit community, played in saving my life, and providing me with happiness. I became a partner in Lift Heavy Run Long, LLC last December because I wanted a challenge and purpose. Our goal is to build as large and strong of a community as possible for those who enjoy an active lifestyle. We want to encourage the people in the fitness community, but also welcome the people who are struggling to make the decision to change their life through fitness. I know first-hand, how scary and intimidating it can be to sign up for that first race, or first fitness class. We want to help people who are struggling to take that first step. I love positivity, and I love being inspired. I have found that running and lifting provides a multitude of opportunities to connect with other people and be of service. I have a blog, which started as fitness journal, but has since turned into an almost daily rambling of all of the craziness that goes through my oddly designed brain. Von and I also started a podcast, where we are trying to find some of the world's most inspirational people, who are leading lives of fulfillment through following their bliss.

Section two Eagle Creek Trail Marathon - Outro Well my friends you pulled the one arm bandit's handle, hit the progressive jackpot, won the car and wheelbarrows full of shiny golden coins that are at the end of Episode 4-345 of the RunRunLive Podcast. (Really had to work that one didn't I?) I'll keep this quick. I've got a lot of projects going on in parallel this month. Next up is the Wapack Trail race on September 4th. I expect some of you to come up and run this with me. Or just come up and volunteer. It's an out-and-back course so you can do as much or as little as you like. Then in September I'll be doing that Spartan race and if all goes well I'll be interviewing Joe the owner for the next episode. Then I'll be gunning for the Portland Marathon in October with coach – which actually has some significance because I am aging up another 10 minutes for my Boston Qualification time for 2018. Then of course we have to decide if we're going to do the Groton Marathon at Christmas again. This would be our fourth outing and I was thinking about opening it up to the 50-staters and the Marathon Maniacs. In the meantime I'm working on my next book and speaking project. And, oh yeah, working full time, traveling and now that my kids are out of college, seeing if we can fix up the house, consolidate our finances and, what the heck, work on my marriage. In order to support this swarm of ill-conceived projects I'm going to have to get healthy and find some creative time. So I've kicked off a project in August to get healthy. This includes cleaning up my nutrition, no more alcohol and getting up a 5:00AM every day. I'm two days into it. I'm going to make a short video every day when I get up to document it and I'll see if I can get those up on my YouTube Channel ‘cyktrussell'and on the RunRunLive website. I can't imagine why anyone would want to see my burry-eyed, discombobulated 5AM apparition, but I'm doing it for accountability. … When I was hanging out with my sister Lou this weekend she was telling me about a crime data study she had seen. Basically all the crime data for cities is publically available so institutions have taken to turning the methods of big data loose on it to see if they can learn anything. It seems one of the things they found, not unexpectedly, was that certain areas of the cities were hot zones for crime. But they also saw something that they couldn't explain. Within these hot spots were small bubbles that were crime free. There were oases of peace in the worst parts of the city. When they looked to see why and what caused these bubbles they consistently found that it was due to one person in that neighborhood. That person ran a gym or a business and kept the kids off the street. That single person created a clearing for peace to manifest. One person made that happen. One person made a difference in their neighborhood. One person created a bubble of love in the rip tide of hate. You can be that person. Be the person your dog thinks you are and I'll see you out there. MarathonBQ – How to Qualify for the Boston Marathon in 14 Weeks -

I think we all know this works. Initially when you learn a new discipline, whether an exercise routine or really, anything new it your learning follows the same basic arc. Initially it’s hard and you learn slowly. Then you hit a stretch of rapid improvement. Eventually you plateau. And then you’re stuck. You push harder, you practice more hours, but you’re stuck. The example they use is typing. Most typists get to a certain point and don’t get any faster. They get to the ‘good enough’ plateau. How do you get unstuck? How do you get through the plateau? Science shows 3 things that you can do, or at least try. Mindset, discomfort and approach. .” The first one is mindset. When you reach that ‘good-enough’ plateau you self-talk yourself into being as good as you’re going to get. Your mind says, “Well, since I’m not getting better anymore I must be at the top end of my ability.” Like everything else once we let our minds tell that story, we internalize it and it manifests. Like your parents and coaches always told you “Whether you think you can or you think you can’t, either way you’re right!” You have to fix your mindset. The people who break through performance plateaus essentially don’t take ‘no’ for an answer. I’ll give you an example from my book on how to qualify for the Boston marathon. When I talk to runners about running a qualifying time they will invariably say “I could never do that!” I always ask a dumb question – “Why not?” If you reframe your mindset then the question becomes “How do I?” instead of “I can’t” – sometimes it’s as simple as making that mental switch. The next that has proved to be effective in breaking through plateaus is to force yourself you’re your discomfort zone. In the typing example this would mean forcing yourself to type at a faster rate even though you are making more mistakes. Even if you fail a lot – you assume the higher level of performance and hang in there until the plateau is broken. The key here is you have to really push to spend time in a place where you will most certainly fail consistently at first. Embracing the failure is part of the key to breaking the plateau. Starting at a higher level of performance and sticking with it until you catch up is the other part. Both are very uncomfortable. The marathon qualification example is to start with the training paces you need to run to qualify. Even though at first you won’t be able to maintain them. It will hurt and you will fail. If you stick with it you can find a new level of performance. Getting yourself to perform above the comfort zone (plateau) works hand in hand with the mindset of believing you can do it. Lastly, when you think you can do it, and you force yourself out of your comfort zone into the failure zone you will be forced to find new approaches. In a sense you can’t operate at that level and it forces you to abandon your existing approach and try approaches that support that higher level of performance. You will find the consistent areas where you are making mistakes – the failure points. Just like lowering the water level reveals the rocks, upping your forced performance reveals your weaknesses. Then you can devise focused practice to fix these failure points and enable the new level. It’s a virtuous cycle. When you get to the point of re-evaluating your approach a coach or an expert can be a big plus. They have seen those mistake patterns before and can help you fix them faster. In the typing example, maybe you find that when you speed up you consistently miss the ‘b’ key or the semi-colon. You can devise exercises that focus on those. Or maybe switch to a Dvorak keyboard layout to totally change the approach. In the qualification example forcing yourself to run those faster-than-comfortable 1600 repeats will reveal flaws in your form and mechanics. A coach might quickly help you fix it. Either way you’ll quickly realize you can’t run on your heels and hold those paces. There you go – simple way to break through a plateau. Give it a try. On with the show. Section one – Voices of reason – the conversation Wilson “BeefCake” Horrell Hey Chris, My name is Wilson Horrell, sometimes referred to as “Beefcake”, and I am a 39 year old, married, father of 2 children (ages 10 & 7). I am a raging drug addict and alcoholic, who after years of living and unhealthy life and blowing through a $2 million dollar windfall, found running, CrossFit, and people to be my new addiction, as I sobered up and began the process of picking up the pieces. I started running 5k’s as an effort to stop smoking and lose some weight. I found a community of trail runners who welcomed, not only me as a person, but were also open to my slow pace. My love of the trail came about immediately, as I enjoyed the lack of pounding that the soft dirt placed on my over-sized body. I heard about Lift Heavy Run Long’s 50mile &400 Deadlift club. I set my sights on this, and ran various distances until this goal was achieved. Since I started on my fitness journey in 2013, I have participated in numerous CrossFit events, some obstacle races, a couple of marathons, a handful of 50k’s, and a 50-miler last November. I am registered for the Tour D’ Spirit 24-Hour Race in Memphis, TN on Sept 30-Oct. 1 I am an incredibly average runner, as well as average athlete. I enjoy the endurance sports, as I like spending long periods of time in introspection. I like the slower paced events, and enjoy listening to the internal struggle that exists between the body and the brain. I do not take for granted the role that people in the running community, combined with the CrossFit community, played in saving my life, and providing me with happiness. I became a partner in Lift Heavy Run Long, LLC last December because I wanted a challenge and purpose. Our goal is to build as large and strong of a community as possible for those who enjoy an active lifestyle. We want to encourage the people in the fitness community, but also welcome the people who are struggling to make the decision to change their life through fitness. I know first-hand, how scary and intimidating it can be to sign up for that first race, or first fitness class. We want to help people who are struggling to take that first step. I love positivity, and I love being inspired. I have found that running and lifting provides a multitude of opportunities to connect with other people and be of service. I have a blog, which started as fitness journal, but has since turned into an almost daily rambling of all of the craziness that goes through my oddly designed brain. Von and I also started a podcast, where we are trying to find some of the world’s most inspirational people, who are leading lives of fulfillment through following their bliss.

Section two Eagle Creek Trail Marathon - Outro Well my friends you pulled the one arm bandit’s handle, hit the progressive jackpot, won the car and wheelbarrows full of shiny golden coins that are at the end of Episode 4-345 of the RunRunLive Podcast. (Really had to work that one didn’t I?) I’ll keep this quick. I’ve got a lot of projects going on in parallel this month. Next up is the Wapack Trail race on September 4th. I expect some of you to come up and run this with me. Or just come up and volunteer. It’s an out-and-back course so you can do as much or as little as you like. Then in September I’ll be doing that Spartan race and if all goes well I’ll be interviewing Joe the owner for the next episode. Then I’ll be gunning for the Portland Marathon in October with coach – which actually has some significance because I am aging up another 10 minutes for my Boston Qualification time for 2018. Then of course we have to decide if we’re going to do the Groton Marathon at Christmas again. This would be our fourth outing and I was thinking about opening it up to the 50-staters and the Marathon Maniacs. In the meantime I’m working on my next book and speaking project. And, oh yeah, working full time, traveling and now that my kids are out of college, seeing if we can fix up the house, consolidate our finances and, what the heck, work on my marriage. In order to support this swarm of ill-conceived projects I’m going to have to get healthy and find some creative time. So I’ve kicked off a project in August to get healthy. This includes cleaning up my nutrition, no more alcohol and getting up a 5:00AM every day. I’m two days into it. I’m going to make a short video every day when I get up to document it and I’ll see if I can get those up on my YouTube Channel ‘cyktrussell’and on the RunRunLive website. I can’t imagine why anyone would want to see my burry-eyed, discombobulated 5AM apparition, but I’m doing it for accountability. … When I was hanging out with my sister Lou this weekend she was telling me about a crime data study she had seen. Basically all the crime data for cities is publically available so institutions have taken to turning the methods of big data loose on it to see if they can learn anything. It seems one of the things they found, not unexpectedly, was that certain areas of the cities were hot zones for crime. But they also saw something that they couldn’t explain. Within these hot spots were small bubbles that were crime free. There were oases of peace in the worst parts of the city. When they looked to see why and what caused these bubbles they consistently found that it was due to one person in that neighborhood. That person ran a gym or a business and kept the kids off the street. That single person created a clearing for peace to manifest. One person made that happen. One person made a difference in their neighborhood. One person created a bubble of love in the rip tide of hate. You can be that person. Be the person your dog thinks you are and I’ll see you out there. MarathonBQ – How to Qualify for the Boston Marathon in 14 Weeks -

Speed Training is an interesting topic for mountain biking because it isn’t really a part of many programs. Early on in training mountain bikers I realized that few of them had the ability to truly “tap into 100%” and that this was holding them back in a lot of different ways. If you have any questions, comments, or ideas for the next episode, contact us at info@mountainbikeradio.com. We also have advertising opportunities available, just contact us. ----------------------------------------------------- EPISODE BACKGROUND: Speed Training isn’t just doing some intervals as part of your cardio program and needs to be looked at and trained as a separate element. It can help improve your endurance, help you more easily power through tough efforts on the trail and as well as help you get faster when you need to lay down some power to the pedals. As you can see, it can do a lot for you and should be part of your program this off-season. But if you’re like most riders you probably have a few questions like how is Speed Training different from just doing some intervals and what is the best way to use it as a mountain biker. And that is why I put this podcast together for you. In it you’ll learn more about how Speed Training can help you as a rider and how you can use it to improve your speed and endurance on the trail. Here are the notes from this podcast: Most sports have a speed training aspect where they focus on the ability to quickly produce power in the shortest amount of time possible. It requires the ability to recruit as many muscle fibers as possible while also maintain the most efficient postures and movement patterns. This ability to tap into 100% is a skill most mountain bikers lack and so they are waste a lot of energy when they try to do it on the trail. Speed training helps us tap into more muscle fibers which, like strength training, makes more of them available for endurance. Speed training also reinforces proper posture and movement habits since speed increases the stress on the system, magnifying the cracks that don’t show up as much at slower speeds. While most people think of fast movements for speed training, trying to move a heavy load quickly also results in improved power and speed. This is important because we need this ability to quickly push against resistance to sprint or grind through a higher gear – a lot of trail riding takes place below 80 rpms and this needs to be trained. Speed can be trained on the bike or in the gym with power exercises like the Swing, DB Cheat Curl and Push Press. These are especially useful for working on “high tension” speed. While power is a huge part of speed it isn’t the same thing as Power Training. Speed training and speed endurance training are different and need to be trained differently. Speed training requires a relatively fresh nervous system for maximum muscle recruitment. Speed endurance training should focus on maintaining a certain speed/ effort level instead of just surviving the workout. Start with working to improve your speed early in the off-season before working on speed endurance closer to the riding season. In general, anything over 60 seconds isn’t Speed Training and is starting to get into Endurance Training. Speed Training is going to be relative to the distance you usually ride with longer distance riders able to use longer sprints. Every riders should spend some time working on true speed with intervals less than 10 seconds. Unless you are a 4X/ Dual Slalom rider then Speed Training shouldn’t be a big part of your program, perhaps 1-2 days a week for 8-12 weeks in the off-season and 1 session every 7-14 days during the season. But it is an important part of your training program and without it you have a gap in your fitness which will effect everything else. As you can see Speed Training can help you in a lot of different ways so make sure you aren’t neglecting it this off-season.
