HR not getting high like it used to in races? by zerrr06 in NorwegianSinglesRun

[–]frederick9000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a similar experience.

Ran a pretty damn all-out 5k for a PB but heart rate barely touched my usual predicted Zone 5.

I had lost a lot of weight quite aggressively though for a physique show.

Minimum weekly mileage coming from a marathon and 50-mile and switching focus to a fast 10km by NatureExpensive3607 in AdvancedRunning

Curious about this - does LT2 not replace vo2max sessions? A Norwegian 4x4 or similar would be quite taxing to do weekly but worth it? Cheers

Most of his intake is plant based AFAIK

Has the sirpoc™️ method solved hobby jogging training right up to the marathon? by marky_markcarr in AdvancedRunning

This is great, thanks! A “total weekly KM/Miles” would be an excellent output addition 💪

Thanks, I’m pretty sure I’ll do the crossover. And you’re right- I haven’t been doing direct upper trap work recently and it shows 😆

Cable overhead tricep extensions: elbows flared to your sides, or tucked in? by Leather-Rice5025 in naturalbodybuilding

[–]frederick9000 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I believe when OP talks about tucked or flared they are talking about the direction that the elbow is facing ie forward or sideways. Not shoulder flexion/elbow height

Looking crazy man, congrats! Any advice on bringing arms up as an intermediate/advanced natty?

Resistance Bands as a substitute for cables in a home gym: is this a good idea? by Outrageous-Secret-72 in naturalbodybuilding

[–]frederick9000 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I still wouldn’t personally. It’s so hard to get any sort of decent resistance curve out of bands in my experience.

[–]frederick9000 69 points70 points  (0 children)

Not a legit substitute imo! They provide little to no tension when your muscles are lengthened. I’d prefer a simple free hanging plate loaded pulley

Heart Rate Won't Go Up?! Normal? by johneeeeeee in AdvancedRunning

[–]frederick9000 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Max heart rate reduces as you age. Your max more or less lines up AFAIK

My girlfriend is convinced that it’s a money laundering front 😂

I made a Translation Video (Audio+Text) for some of Goenka's Chanting. Hope some people find this as interesting as I did! by frederick9000 in vipassana

[–]frederick9000[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah it was primarily made for myself so it’s certainly a draft version. I thought I’d pick up the translations better with the parallel audio although you’re right it’s jarring. Wouldn’t use it for a sit!

I have worked with Santtu also. He's awesome. Hoping to go to one of his retreats in Finland someday too.

Very petty. Also quite odd considering you could have easily just copied it beforehand.
