Hey Guys! Just a heads up. I've been dealing with a slight over-training injury in my left knee. It's no where near as bad as all my complaining would make you think though! Anyway, I'm gonna take it easy over the next few weeks. My aim is to get it recovered and ready for training by the end of June. This is just a heads up to let everyone know that I doubt I'll be out at the uni for the next few weekends, as I always get tempted to do jumps. I don't think I'll be out for more than a few weeks. I'll be training on my own more - as I am always more focused and can avoid impact on my leg. If I am out, I'll just be working on upperbody/core/balance and maybe hang around with a camera!  See you around! Tim |

Get better fast dude!
If you fancy drilling some balance at any point just let me know and we can do that if you want?

-Streeeeeeeeeetch! Stretch your quads, your hamstrings, your hip-flexors. No stiffness, need to be supple. -Strengthen your quads, hamstrings, glute, hips, lower back further. -Increase protein in diet to increase muscle recovery between sessions -Try fish oils Just a few pointers  |

Never did reply to this thread... :/ Thanks for all the pointers guys. It is a lot better now but still needs work. I rested it for a while, focusing of flexability and mobility - I'm now moving to more endurance work like squats, lunges and quadrupedie. And as Joe said: Streeeeeeeeeetch! |

You should probably do strength stuff as opposed to endurance, surely that makes sense. Don't necessarily need a barbell, just throw some weights in a bag or something. Weighted squats (and when I say weighted I mean 40kg+ really), GHRs, bulgarian split squats etc. Hamstring and hip flexibility, lower back strength (deadlifts, wow). Honestly, invest in a barbell, f**k weighted vests - they're around the same price and you'll benefit so much more from the barbell. Try keeping sessions shorter too. Instead of blasting out for like 3 hours, train for half an hour/1 hour; avoid DOMS as much as you can so you can train more frequently too. Obviously you can still keep technical sessions at like 2/3 hours as usual |

Use your pull up bar. Put it in sit up position.

The last three posts in this thread are disturbingly epic.
