jogging and motivation thread

This morning around 7+ i saw one fella iirc orange vest top or what.....around MBS area.
Run quite fast one, quite solid runner. The last i saw him was he ran into the Gardens By the Bay path just beside the Sheares Bridge bottom part......

Not you right?

I usually run evenings on weekdays, been trying weekend morning recently

This whole family of talents.

I am thinking of trying a crazy workout with my siblings 6 x 10 mins (3 min rest between sets). According to my bro, 1 of the running clubs have this as their workout.

Bro can sustain high HR for so long. Jskm

Usually I hit max HR at 8-9km in. Used to running at high HR but the feeling is terrible. I was close to stitching out but at the same time, I naturally slowed down so my HR can recover and sustain throughout.

Novablast sound quite intermittent and soft. Superblast is like those children's shoes that squeak as they walk one.

Yeah....that one is AHAR PLUS

That is a crazy workout but doable with the rest.

Indons seem to like foldies . (I think one big reason also due to cost). But such is life, you make do with what you've got.
Their strength + fitness as amateurs no joke.

I know of cases in which very expensive flagship with deep wheelsets roadbikes not able to hit 50 even if it were a 1 min effort, granted if newbie/weekend warriors wont be able to......and also depends on the durability/freshness of the legs and sex etc.

After changing to 60T i see if can PB vs my previous 54kmh, technically 58kmh is possible @ 110rpm cadence (will need to chut all aero tricks that i know and i have got). Already spinning like hamster on current 53T on 451

I just did in the server room some self-concocted single leg half squats with mini resistance bands (40lb + 15lb). I think can achieve nearly 20kg at the top. Gonna be getting more mini bands from TB.

Band over the base of 1 leg and my left or right hand would hold onto the other end.
Half squat down to kneecap 90 deg, eccentric down slowly, explosive up.

Not too risky for lower back discs, think low risk for herniation, coz isolated to single leg so the load there is halved. Better to isolate left and right from each other, coz quite common for people to develop 1 side more strength/power than the other side. Only -ve is that it takes more time.


Will do this in future in addition to the on bike ultra low cadence on a slope training. Yesterday I pulled up on my handlebars until now it developed a slight creaking sound, maybe bent something the clamp or joint or what.
