How many of you in your search for injury reovery came across Bob and Brad, the two most famous physical therapists on the internet? Sadly Bod has passed on.

Of coz came across since they are the most famous on the Internet.

As long as you can move with pain level under 3/10. Start to exercise, move the legs too. In regressed volume of course and lower intensity. Badly formed scar tissue can happen if you rest for too long. Risk of reinjury.

Yea RIP . Something to do with cerebral....
They didnt elaborate is RIP due to what tho......

Cerebellar ataxia is a movement disorder that results from damage to the cerebellum, the part of the brain responsible for coordinating movement and balance. This leads to a loss of muscle control, causing symptoms like unsteady gait, difficulty with fine motor tasks, slurred speech, and problems with eye movements.

More Details:
  • What it is:
    Cerebellar ataxia is not a disease itself, but rather a symptom of various underlying conditions that affect the cerebellum.

  • Causes:
    These conditions can include genetic mutations, brain tumors, strokes, infections, multiple sclerosis, and exposure to toxins.

    • Symptoms:
      Individuals with cerebellar ataxia may experience:
        • Balance and gait problems: Difficulty walking, staggering, and an unsteady gait.
        • Fine motor skill difficulties: Problems with tasks like buttoning clothes, writing, or using utensils.
        • Speech problems: Slurred or slow speech (dysarthria).
        • Eye movement abnormalities: Unsteady or jerky eye movements, difficulty tracking objects.
        • Other potential symptoms: Tremors, difficulty swallowing (dysphagia), and cognitive or emotional changes.

Can empathize with him, going to take some time to recover. Wonder which grade of ligament torn is he suffering from.

BTW for calves (both gastrocs and soleus), i think i am going to change something.

I no longer will use bands. Like not power enough coz it is still based on fingers (strength) not that my fingers bo lak (dead hang 60s totally no issue) but still.......

I devised a new way. Those fitness corners in which people stand on a circular disc and spin around while holding onto a central thingy right......... Stand on the ground and then with both hands and forearms you latch firmly onto the central thingy, chest close to the thingy also. If you are decently strong enough, you can easily exert 30kg, 40-50kg of downward force is possible if strong.
Aim to near failure with your upper body force exertion thus really whacking your calves too.

Single leg only. That means if BW is 65kg and strong, that would be over 100kgf of resistance on the calves/, PF, AT.

3 secs time under tension per rep, 10 reps, did 2 working sets just now.

Wah lao it is a somewhat new stimulus. In fact i could feel my quads and glutes working also, could feel the lactate between sets when recovery.


10kg weights only i think. Really can try shooting for 40-50kg range.
Think tgt with pogo jumps (basic plyo) and/or skipping rope, can really raise the bar.

I think it helps to maintain the body's cardiovascular fitness but of course your timings will still drop if u take too long a break from running. However, if injured I think it is still a much needed break to prevent worsening of the injury.

Pogos also got so many pattern. :oops:
(I only do the very typical front back and diagonals within a 1.5m or so square, coz i do in office)
BTW, i also do rope skipping for fun, which is also by definition plyo and also calisthenics....but super basic ba, it is also one that is aerobic/anaerobic in nature. Still, even though super basic, i believe it helps.





BONUS

But make no mistake, at first glance many people see this as an aid to power generation and is good for short distances and so longer distances which are vastly aerobic dont help etc. It is not, the benefits go much farther than that and helps in other ways like from rate of force production to RE improvement via the stretch shorterning cycle to improving tendon stiffness for injury prevention etc.

In fact have come across one study in which the improvements to 5k was 11-13%, for squat and drop jumps, over control group. Somemore is using BMI 25 amateur runners, not unlike to some to most recreational runners depending on how you look at things.
In just 8 weeks. It is basically free speed money on the table for your taking esp after exhausting all other normal run training methods and maxing out your max weekly training hours that you can squeeze out from your work and family schedules.
But with not much additional time/effort/training/suffering needed....

Only issue - it does not look sexy or as interesting as a training tool for most amateur runners, not like the various types of intervals or threshold or even long run. Runners only want to run, yes.

But as usual, if you are just starting out, improve on this slowly and progressively.....or else can get hurt.


And i dont see why this only specially works for only 5k and not 10K / HM distances.

No shiat sherlocks. :oops: Really no BS.
I really thought my feeling was just "pseudoscience".

5k ranging from 24.5 to 28 mins. Fairly typical of amateur runners.

Improvements of 2.3 t0 2.8 mins for squat jumps and drop jumps plyo groups respectively.
In just 8 weeks, plyo training duration probably no more than 8 mins start to finish and that's including the warm up set.
I myself also surprised at the excellent ROI of this.
I think i just might convert some of my multidirectional pogos to this squat jumps (no need for a box), just 3-4 sets of 30 seconds ON and 30 seconds OFF can liao, no sweat at all, shared warmup anyway.
The mileage shd be pretty decent no sweat chicken feat haha all the way one......

The warming protocol was composed by 2 series of 30 seconds of stimulation with 30 seconds of recovery with multidirections jumps and interval up to 5 seconds between each jump in each series. In sequence, the volunteers started the specific jumps protocols.
The plyometric training protocol for the PSG was composed by 6 series of squat jump with 30 seconds of stimulation and 30 seconds recovery, with interval up to 2 seconds between each jump in each series (45 cm box height).
The plyometric training protocol for the PDG was composed by 6 series of drop jump with 30 seconds of stimulation and 30 seconds recovery, with interval up to 2 seconds between each jump in each series (45 cm box height).
