Re: Gslp
For me, it has always been running affecting the lifting and not the other way around.

Re: Gslp
That is some insane mileage.
I was gonna say I switched my training to: Day 1: run intervals. About 1.5-2mi of volume right not including walking for rest Day 2: Barbell/DB stuff in the gym (full body of compound lifts and simple strength work) and possibly a short conditioner at the end. Day 3: Light day, maybe do some BW stuff at home. Handstand work, Ring work, Lunges/Pistols/BW squats. More of active rest. I had been doing the intervals after the barbell day and noticed my lower back was something of a limiter and I was probably slower on the splits. I still have some decent work in on the squats and pulls the day after the intervals though my hips and quads are not quite fresh and feel a bit tight. I not really pushing my strength atm as I want to bring up my conditioning level and lean out and just maintain strength. I also don't feel like training 3-4hrs/day in the gym and so have walked away from that. However, that sort of mileage makes me think the hips, legs, and calves would be far more fatigued even if you are adapted to it. I'd prioritize the running if that's your goal, but bare in mind the lower body strength will probably be hampered. |

3x20m slowly building to 3x60m is insane mileage?! I'm going to stick to 3x a week for as long as I can ... Then adjust down to 2x. |

Re: Gslp
First workout yesterday:
Press: 95lbs x 5,5,7 Squat: 135lbs x 5,5,10 I had another rep or 2 in the tank for squats. I was going to keep the press weight at 95 (or even reduce to 85) and up the squats by 5lbs. Sound good? |

Re: Gslp
Staying at the same weight never works for me. I'd personally either drop the weight a bit so I could get the recommended 10 reps or I'd just suck it up and keep adding weight as prescribed until I hit a reset. It depends on how you feel about the lift and if you think you might be able to get a good progression going before hitting the reset versus putting yourself in a hole early on. How did those 7 reps feel? You are new enough to this that you might be able to push through without a problem. In any case, you are just starting out so whatever you do now won't have much long term bearing so don't over think it.

Today's workout: Bench: 135 x 5,5,13 Dead: 220 x 10 All good. I'm going to increase the weight on press. I'm going to do the powerlifting template so I'm cool with a weight I can only get 7 on for now. Thanks all |
