💫ALORS ON DANSE

A veces me asombra lo impredecible de todo esto y quedo deleitado apreciando, como si la vida fuera la obra de arte de alguien zarpadamente genial.

Sigo reflexionando después de mi sorpresa al mover 160kilos con suma facilidad.

Los efectos de las cosas que hacemos son impredecibles a veces y contraintuitivos otras tantas.

Ayer superé mi record historico en un movimiento específico: low bar back squat.

Pero no mejoré mi low bar back squat haciendo low bar back squat. Esto es contraintuitivo. Uno diría intuitivamente que para mejorar en el remo mi tiempo de 2k deberia remar más, o quizas hacer mas dominadas que es un movimiento análogo. Y sin embargo mejorar las flexiones de brazos mejora tu tiempo de 2k remo. Y en mi caso mejorar mis levantamientos olímpicos facilitó un aumento de 10kg en mi récord de sentadilla.

De un modo contraintuitivo he oido que profesores de paddle mandan a sus alumnos a tomar clases de baile.

Y de un modo impredecible, aprender a bailar quizás despierte o mejore nuestra capacidad de amar.

Algo se despierta en uno bailando, que de otro modo sigue dormido, a menos que uno ame profundamente.

Quizas en el 2030 los kinesiólogos receten clases de baile cuamdo te rompan el corazón. Yo no soy kinesiólogo pero si tuve un par de esas lesiones y les digo por experiencia propia que estoy viendo mejoras en el rango de movimiento de mis emociones, antes severamente limitadas.

Hay mucho trabajo por hacer pero los resultados son alentadores, asi que seguiré con este tratamiento experimental.

On the first part: Back Squats 5-3-3-3-1-1-1-1-1 reps. I lifted: 164, 169m 174, 179, 184, 189, 204 and 214 lbs

Pressed for time today so did rounds of 10 back squat (95#) and 10 weighted AbMat sit-ups (35# DB) in between yard work tasks. Somewhere around 10 rounds total.

Kind of a box check I know, but the lower back was playing up some too, hence the greatly reduced weight.

Champions Club Scaling Notes

RANT

The further away (vertically) from your hips the dumbbell is, the harder; and the closer the dumbbell is to your body the harder. So the hardest version would he a 50-.b dumbbell overhead sit-up with your arms straight and in line with your ears the entire time. I'm not entirely sure that is possible, by the way. I tried a set of 15 with the 50# held behind my head and I actually failed at 9.

WORKOUT THEMES

I can see this going either way: 1) a format that assumes just doing a max effort lifting session isn't enough or 2) using full body fatigue (especially hips) to challenge our midline stamina and strength. The optimist in me would like to believe the second theme, because a max effort back squat session is a plenty good dose for the day. And actually, so would 100 weighted sit-ups.

SHORT MEDIUM LONG

LIGHT

MEDIUM

HEAVY x

STRENGTH SCALE

Put on a timer for 30 minutes and go back and forth between heavy back squats and heavy sit-ups. Probably 2-5 sit-ups at a time, and 1-2 back squats

STAMINA SCALE

Lose the dumbbell, do a fast set of 40 sit-ups before every back squat set. Rest as needed between.

POWER SCALE

As is, don't time the sit-ups, and on both sit-ups and squats give extra emphasis to the way up. If it slows down too much, rest more.

MY STUFF

Did this as a partner workout a few days ago. 15 weighted sit-ups, 5 back squats, then partner goes. 7 rounds. 18:something, good dose

GENERAL FEAR LEVEL: 4
