Nice! In 2003 I once slept 14 hours straight after sleeping for 5 hours a night for 2 weeks. I woke up looking like a young good looking Oscar De La Hoya, bro. I could not believe I how I looked and felt that one day.

Ashwagandha?
Magnesium? Cream ZMA
Routine of mundane things in the evening (chores around the house) while listening to Jazz?
Breathing exc before sleep to lower heart rate, etc. ?

Love to hear about it.


Too much screen time this past year..Just had my eyes tested. Went from 20/20 to 20/25. Working on relaxing the eyes again to get back to 20/20.
On days where I had big softball games at night..I rarely looked at the phone all day to keep my eyes sharp as hell. Would take Tyrosine also.
Had to be on point against some of these guys hitting balls at 100mph and I was in the infield.
Imagine a MLB hitter using these new tech bats.

I usually go until my times drop off - finish with 11x30's today > 410 403 403 403 409 404 417 405 415 407 422 I was done once I hit 4.22!!!! I had a couple decent ohb throws 20.30 meters. Taking the rest of the week off and most likely will repeat this session next Monday night. I have a couple decisions to make regarding my training. A: Move to a 3-week max strength focus with a 2/1 accel to max velocity. B: Cont to keep weights in the maintenance zone with 1 accel, 1 max velocity, 1 SE. Also, I need to decide should I go into a 2-week deload to allow my body to fully recover from all the hard training I have done over the past 6 months before getting into pre comp. I'm still a little off from the calorie deficit over the past 3 months and lack of sleep/high stress levels over the past 4 weeks. I wouldn't be shocked if I saw a "pr" next Monday night.


*** I fucking hate squatting twice a week - don't feel good on my old beat up knees. Still dealing with some mild patellar tendonitis.

Dream big!!!!!

Not gonna lie - I thought I had a pr tonight but once again just one BIGGG tease!!!!! Very similar to last Tuesday - just one big tease. I need it!!!!!


Post workout weight: 170.8.

These are the two different options I'm looking at for the next block.

Max strength/Accel focus:

Heavy Strength work twice weekly therefore speed focus will be more high end accel

Day 1: 60's

Day 2: 40's

Day 3: Short flies



Strength maint/Balance approach

Mod strength work twice weekly therefore allows for all types of speed to get trained (accel max v se).

Day 1: 50-60's

Day 2: 40's

Day 3: SE - 2 different approaches leaning towards option A which is a little less aggressive for indoors.


A: 3x80, 90-120-90, 3x120, deload/test



B: 3x80, 60-80-100-120, 80-100-120-150, deload/test
