    Re: Relentless Ambition

    22 feb. --> 3 march

    I'm not allowed to run for a period of time due to foot pain at upper hamstring/low glute pain while running. probably doing too much in gym, overreaching

    bodyweight squats... hip mobility drills...foam roller... tennis massage... stretching... deep tissue massage... chiropractor as recovery

    3 march national championships, i'll run the 60 and 200m. Hope my foot and hamstring will be recovered by then.

    national junior indoor championships

    New PB's:

    60m: 7"23
    200m: 23"14

    disappointed.. very tiny improvement despite increased leg flexibility and first time ever strength training (6weeks). Expected much greater results, oh well..

    thur 8 march.

    3x500m - DISASTER

    sunday 18 march

    deep tissue massage. massage therapist said I lacked flexibility in my hips and other areas. He said he's pretty sure once I loosen up my hips the hamstring pain will go away.

    tue. 20 march

    foot is getting alot better now, but the hamstring is healing slowly.

    interesting to note: Today I tested my vertical jump (3 steps run up) and it increased by 3-4 inches, last time I tested was 2 weeks ago and i've been off training since then. (i did cycling during these 2 weeks though)
