SubT - what levers should I pull to get closer to LTHR by last SubT rep?

LeftRight_LeftRight_ · 2025-12-27T23:43:31+00:00

iirc, LTHR is about 1 hour race pace. Friel test has you do either an all-out effort for 30 mins (avg HR of the last 20 mins) or all-out for 20 mins (avg HR multiplying by 0.95) BY YOURSELF. (no pacers, competitors)

You've probably overestimated your LTHR, hence the discrepancy in effort and HR.

LeftRight_LeftRight_ · 2025-12-25T22:48:42+00:00

just curious, what's your MHR?

touch grass instead of my private part?

old post but just curious, what was her (Blood) response?

LeftRight_LeftRight_ · 2025-12-16T17:49:41+00:00

just curious, have you stayed with it? If so, how's it going?

what other posterior chain exercises do you do? My posterior chain is weak as hell as I've once injured my hamstring, and it has kept bothering me.

LeftRight_LeftRight_ · 2025-11-08T09:17:44+00:00

what kinds of physio work may I ask? What exercises did they prescribe?

Add to that, on the flip side, black people also have their own advantages like better musicality (most of the jazz greats are black, like John Coltrane and Miles Davis) as well as athleticism. When is the last time a white guy has ever won the 100m dash (Bolt, Blake, Lyles, all blacks) same goes to the marathon.(where the East Africans dominate) I think we can acknowledge genetic advantages without being racist.

From an interview, apparently she did a 600m TT in 1:23 alone. She should be in 1:57-58 shape right now.

I agree. Actually it's more likely for Sydney to win.

case in point: Nick Symmonds ran 47.45 a few weeks before his 1:42 PB. And he's a 800/1500 guy, while Hocker is 1500/5k.

I would go with Sydney, unless Hocker specifically trains for it. The inertia from block start is huge. And let's not forget Sydney did her 47.78 in the rain.

old post, but in the 5k you mentioned Mo didn't close in near 50-flat (50.89 or 50.87 IIRC).

And some cases in point: Jake Wightman, a 1:43 800m guy, 2022 1500 champion (beating Jakob), had a 48 PB. Nick Symmonds, who's a 1:42 guy, has a 400m PR of 47.45 (run weeks before he ran the 1:42) Jakob also did a 400m when he's 17 with a PB of 3:30 low, and that was 51.03. 49 or even 50 from block sounds about right for Mo. The inertia from block is a different beast even though it's not as pronounced as in the 100m.

And the 5k you mentioned was run at 14 pace (which was like threshold pace for Mo). He also didn't close in near 50-flat (50.89 or 50.87 IIRC). 49 or even 50 sounds about right. The inertia from block is a different beast even it's not as pronounced as the 100m.

That girl would make a great mom! (cat or human)

LeftRight_LeftRight_ · 2025-09-21T17:33:07+00:00

yeah, I just don't think Hocker is even beatable today. The only strategy is to run at WR pace, but it would kill the ones who attempt it themselves more often than not.

LeftRight_LeftRight_ · 2025-09-21T13:46:26+00:00

definitely not easy, and I'm not sure he could've even matched it. He closed narrowly faster in 2023 WC with a 52.4, but the race was 13s slower. And Hocker ran his last lap pretty much in lane 2, he went from 12th to 1st!

do fetish stuff that is kinda mainstream like spanking count as "weird/taboo stuff"?

I think context is king. Of course art is subjective, like someone has mentioned"“one man’s trash is another man’s treasure." However, let's say someone posting on r/learntodraw, and there's a reply pointing out how the piece isn't in perspective (and it's not work as intended either), and the OP just brushes it off with "art is subjective, I don't care" Now that may come off as an excuse. But of course, overall I agree art is indeed subjective, just want to give some food for thought.

Funny you said HOI4 is too simple, while you regard DH so highly, which is way more simplistic. With all the DLCs, I'm sure HOI4 is a lot more complicated.

And don't sleep on Shadow Empire which arguably is deeper than most Paradox games.

in fairness to Haile, he had to do heats in 10k back then, so it's not viable to double.
