week of Feb 15th-19th.


Training thus far... Well I am tired. That was the first thing that came to me when I thought of "how training is going." I tweeked my left calf... again, while driving out of the back of the ring. I did that tuesday... but today it was good.. Not 100% but good enough to get the throws in. I have been throwing 60 ft high consistantly but cant rip the hell out of one. My nervous system is still down. On top of that I realize 260lbs is not heavy enough at my height (6ft). So, I am going to be focusing more on the nutrition side of training. I usually eat very well, but just enough to fuel and recover from workouts but nothing to make gains. I guess I will have to turn it up a notch.

Well I probably sound like I am in a rut... well I am not... I am just tired, it's been a long day and I got stood up for the 2nd time today by my Lacrosse player client. He is going to get an ear full Monday. On a lighter note... RAW MILK comes tommorrow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Can't wait for this awesomeness... Did I spell that right?

Widener Results..

Well, my body felt okay. I thought it would feel good enough for a 19.70m+ throw but it did not happen. I started off pretty good with my first three throws being 18.47, 18.90, 19.08. The 4-6th throws were terrible. I was falling out the left side, starting too fast which made it impossible to hit the positions at the front blah blah blah. I just could not handle the energy of the meet. The good that I can pull out of this is that my first three throws were at about 75% intensity and felt really easy.

What's the future plan? I will be getting more reps in this indoor season with the Monmouth squad. Indoor Nationals is a no go for me this year. To many variables weighing against me, so I will be staying in NJ and training through up until the Outdoor Nationals in June.

Widener U. 2/5/10 & winter storm

Practices have gone well this week. I have started a new phase (which kicks my ass) and will be getting a rise out of my body today (the fifth day). That is why I will be traveling to PA for a meet at Widener University. After this week my nervous system will be down, so it's time to get a better throw in this indoor season before all focus turns to USA Outdoor T&F Nationals. The meet will go on despite the weather. They are calling for 12+ inches in South Jersey/Philly. Maybe some sledding after, HMMMMM?!?!??!! I will post late this evening with the results.
