but dude

2019-03-15 15:48:05 UTC  

if you keep doing this you will gradually increase your speed

2019-03-15 15:48:29 UTC  

reaching your goal of 3 miles in 25 minutes which is slow

2019-03-15 15:48:44 UTC  

unless there's a powerlifter who says that he did that so he was able to Deadlift 800lbs then that's just bro science

2019-03-15 15:49:02 UTC  

what you are saying is bro science

2019-03-15 15:49:12 UTC  

kek

2019-03-15 15:49:22 UTC  

what is I am talking about is clear physiological facts

2019-03-15 15:49:26 UTC  

show me a powerlifter who did that and I'll believe you

2019-03-15 15:49:59 UTC  

it is bro science until people actually achieve real goals doing it

2019-03-15 15:50:47 UTC  

i weigh literally 255 right not I am currently at 18% body fat.

2019-03-15 15:51:12 UTC  

i do this method only

2019-03-15 15:51:17 UTC  

science

2019-03-15 15:51:22 UTC  

is real

2019-03-15 15:51:58 UTC  

But again right now I'm interested in strength. So im doing what powerlifters do.

2019-03-15 15:52:35 UTC  

How much can you squat and Deadlift?

2019-03-15 15:52:37 UTC  

do you not understand what being 255 and 18% bodyfat means when it comes to strength?

2019-03-15 15:53:07 UTC  

i also have the ability to run

2019-03-15 15:53:46 UTC  

most powerlifters are fairly slow they may be quick in explosion but top speed is slow

2019-03-15 15:53:56 UTC  

how much can you squat?

2019-03-15 15:56:46 UTC  

I don't ever do a max rep squat so i can't tell you my max. but right now I squat 555 lbs for my workout.

2019-03-15 15:57:01 UTC  

my goal is 800

2019-03-15 15:57:30 UTC  

800 for workouts not max

2019-03-15 16:01:57 UTC  

That's pretty good

2019-03-15 16:02:08 UTC  

Given your bodyweight that makes sense

2019-03-15 16:05:19 UTC  

But for a beginner what would say for someone who lifts 4x a week what should they do cardio wise?

2019-03-15 16:05:21 UTC  
2019-03-15 16:54:15 UTC  

@Kraviz i recommend starting a time run at 25 minutes and keeping your heartrate at 60 - 75% of your maximum. this is about 132 - 165 heart beats a minute. if you are truly hitting the weights like you are saying then you should go for a low to mid range. so 132 - 150. you need to make sure though that you are hitting your anaerobic threshold during weight lifting to have full workout. each week increase the speed but stay in that range. after awhile you will be able to run faster and still keep that heartrate range easily.

2019-03-15 16:56:50 UTC  

the heartrate range is based on a 220 maximum

2019-03-15 16:56:59 UTC  

heartrate

2019-03-15 17:00:32 UTC  

also you don't have to just do running you can do swimming and jump rope. running is just a very easy way to measure progress because of timing and speed increase. you can do the same with jump roping and swimming. you can count the numbers of jumps per minute and you can count the number laps per workout session in the pool. just stay within that range.

2019-03-15 17:03:00 UTC  

hitting the heavy bag can be done too. you can count how many times you hit the bag with your power hand and your jab. if you do martial arts practicing shadow boxing in a routine form can be counted how many times you completed it before time was up.

2019-03-15 17:03:38 UTC  

the most important thing is heartrate control

2019-03-15 17:44:28 UTC  

Hmmm OK. Ill probably swim tomorrow. I lifted weights today.

2019-03-16 03:48:53 UTC  

What's your pre-weight training routine like (e.g. stretching, jog/walk, etc.)?

2019-03-16 04:16:09 UTC  

>pre-training

2019-03-16 04:16:21 UTC  

Mainly just stretching, but cardio after a workout it what I find is best

2019-03-16 04:16:58 UTC  

Finally upped my barbell to 175lb, doing cheat curls and deadlifts with what I got here

2019-03-16 04:17:46 UTC  

I need to buy more plates, I've got like 2 11lb plates before I'm out

2019-03-16 04:27:50 UTC  

best warmup is the same movements with lower weight, and before that dynamic stretching which puts the joints you will be moving through their full range of movement, without holding positions for longer than a few seconds

2019-03-16 04:31:02 UTC  

Like this, but cater it to what specifically you are doing
