Re: [STREND] Re: Results for 5/14 Trial Strend

Chris do you want to attempt to hold the event down your way on the 27th.
 
I will be tied up all day with a work related Bay area Corporate relays at Los
Gatos, It ends about 2pm, but the awards and pizza party, last until 4PM.  I am
the team captain for Safeway and simply have to be there.
So because of the last minute change from the 13th to the 27th I won't be able
to participate.  Mark Lundin has the equipment if you have a venue

Looks like our training regiments are much different. In training for the last
STREND, I would do a STREND-type workout 3 times a week. Typically Tues, Thurs,
Sun. We didn't always necessarily do a complete STREND though. We would start
off with a bench workout, 3-4 sets, heavy weight. Then go through the other four
disciplines. Normally we would do 2 'runs'. The first run through with the vest
and extra weight on the military and the second run through at body weight. You
think that is over-training? When you do a 'STREND', do you just go through the
complete circuit, all out or do sets, kinda like what I outlined above?

I generally hold back on the bench but I go all out on pull ups and chin ups. I
might play around with that and see how many dips I can add it I save up a
little extra. The vest we use is 20 lbs, how much weight do you strap on? Are
you going heavy with few reps or a moderate weight, keeping the rep count high?

Anyone else want to drop in their two cents on training thoughts? Wondering
where John Carmony, the ageless wonder is at this moment... =P
