Isokinetic, Isometric, Isosore

Volunteered to demonstrate some new equipment in the lab that determined isokinetic and isometric forces from concentric and eccentric contractions in the quad and hamstring. Naturally, I hurt my calf. Not too sure how that works. All the testing was on the right leg, so am expecting some soreness there tomorrow, especially in the calf. Following the test, did 25mins on the bike, followed by the usual 20mins on the Treadmill. Followed up with weights felt pretty good, especially after working hard yesterday.

And repeat

Treadmill, 20:00, 2.8 miles

Got crazy and mixed things up by hitting the bike before getting on the treadmill. Life is wild sometimes, you just gotta roll with it. Feeling good on the runs, still some very minor niggling going on up and down the shin but seems to be stemming from the calf muscle. Working on loosening it up as I speak (or type?) 

Trinners life

Treadmill, 20:00, 2.8 miles

I hate the treadmill. But I also want to get fit, which isn't going to happen on 20 mins running. Hit the cross-trainer for 40mins hard effort prior to jumping on the T-mill. Will only have to do this for another 2 weeks before I can head straight to the cricket fields for the run (only allowed following May 1st). Just as well as the T-mill has a pre-programmed max time limit of 20 minutes; convenient for this week, total balls for in general.
