@tiga_style That’s a hell of a progression! I’m about a year into consecutive training which is the longest (as an adult) I’ve ever trained consistently and the compounding effects are already noticeable. Can’t wait to see what happens if I can stack another couple years!

What a difference 2 years can make. This 2024 picture came up in my memories today. My first reaction was honestly a bit of disgust… but that wasn’t really fair. That version of me was still trying, even if it didn’t feel or “look” like it. I remember that day on March 27, 2024. I tried to run 3 miles after 4+ months off and it felt like my heart was going to explode. Kept saying I’d get into running, cut out alcohol, clean things up… but it was inconsistent. On, off, reset, repeat. Plus a pretty bad foot injury that made me even more inconsistent. Now 40 lbs down, and that weekend in 2024 was the last time I ever blacked out from drinking. More than anything, it just shows what happens when you stop starting over. Consistency isn’t perfect. It just compounds. Keep showing the fuck up!

I think going by feel is totally fine as long as you’re honest with yourself about whether you’re getting the right stimulus. Same principles with the hill though… running up a steep hill even slowly is likely harder work than an easy run calls for. Whether you measure it by RPE or HR it’s the same logic.

@klusb14 @runliftrunlift I don’t even measure HR or distance (unless it’s specific workouts), just go by feel on the day. That said, I’m not exactly a great runner, I do it because I like it and enjoy the feeling, but if you have specific targets I guess being very strict might be better.

Walking hills is a game changer. I started doing it last summer. The only time I don’t walk hills is during a structured workout. There’s a slight cringe feeling that your pace is getting “ruined” when you walk, but once you get over that, you realize how effective it is.

@runliftrunlift With you encouragement, I walked up two big hills on my long run this weekend. It was the day after a 10k and I was very fatigued. Nothing to be gained by pushing to go up those hills.

There's lots of benefits to running hills, but on an easy run where you're just trying to build endurance and add time on feet walking the hills can keep HR low so you're not overcooking the effort. I personally do workouts on hills too, but walking the hills definitely helps keep easy runs truly easy.

@runliftrunlift Why is walking hills more effective than running up them?

12 km run Easy effort along the river. Several walk breaks on this one, just getting in my time on feet. When I stop to take videos of the ducks it lowers my heart rate by 20bpm, and also means I’m 45 going on 65 years old.

Intervals in the books and a full day of good food and booze at OPACY on a beautiful Spring day for Opening Day on deck (with the #LGM on my phone, of course). Nothing to complain about today.

Yeah, this is so true. Another anecdotal example… I was struggling to get to the gym twice a week on top of my running training those days. So we rearranged the exercises so that on one of the days all I needed was free weights and could do the exercises at home after the kids were off to bed. Now I only need to get to the gym once a week and I’ve been much more consistent as a result.

Struggeling with weight lifting in your running routine? So is my coaching client. He found it hard to maintain a consistent strength routine. Instead of trying to make perfect workouts for him, I asked him: What exercises do you like? Which ones are easy to perform? Based on his answers, I adjusted the workouts. If you are enjoying the lifts, and you feel you can execute well on them, you are much more likely to do them. I'd rather have a runner do goblet squats that he likes, than scheduling bulgarian splits squats that he skips.

@AmiEverAfter Man, my absolute favorite thing to do in the world is read to my kids before bed. It's when I feel most connected to them and it helps me regulate my own nervous system.

This has been my first read of The Wind in the Willows as an adult and it has brought me to the brink of tears several nights while sharing it with my son. Children are worthy of stories that use rich language and create deeply immersive scenes. Our minds need the pause of a mundane stroll through a storybook wood before being drawn through the heart tug of a familiar scent home. How grateful I am for a little one who asks for just one more page before drifting off to sleep.

brings no joy to victory lap, but everyone in the hockey world knew the soucy, palat, and schenn deals were losses for the #Isles . the most optimistic fans tried a positive spin, but a fun season has been derailed by wasting assets, cap space, and actively making the team worse.

@philzfactz @harry4four I hate this discourse because I was fine with moving on from Lou and trying a different direction. But now Darche has changed course back to the Lou print except he’s executed horribly lol

The Lou fan fiction is heavy. You’d never know they were completely mediocre for 4 full seasons
Isles Den@IslesDen

@Papi1754 My goat would’ve never let Armstrong bully him or let Fitz and Drury fleece him. It’s so scary how similar the package is for the new 10 as it was Horvat. And this coach thinks it’s 2006 starting 16 and 32 every night leaving scoring in the press box. Free us all

Idk Matt; I think you’re fighting a straw man here. Very few of us are arguing this was a good roster or that they should have been contenders. Darche put his chips on the table (a 1st rounder!!!!!) and the result is an older, slower, and worse team. We went from the little engine that could and was fun to root for to a team that had to make the playoffs bc we traded premiums assets. The trades were bad objectively at the time they were made and they’re still bad with the benefit of hindsight. I generally agree that you gotta give him more than a year to see the vision but it’s not been a good start by any measure.

#isles I think condemning Darche on Year 1 of his tenure is really not it. I don't love everything he's done but I think you have to give a GM 2-3 seasons at least before you can look at his total body of work and make a real determination. I feel strongly we all believed this roster was not quite good enough the last few years and it's largely unchanged, missing KP, Engvall, Romanov, and Varlamov - but suddenly we're supposed to believe this roster is close to greatness if only our GM didn't trade for some marginal upgrades or adds at the deadline. Just don't think that tracks for me.

@Jolly_Olive It’s in there, but I won’t be excited until I see him hit some adversity and bounce back in season.

What are your expectations for Kodai Senga this year? Spring line: 9.2 IP (3 GS), 2 ER (2 HR), 11 K to 1 BB Max velocity of 97 MPH on his fastball Is 2023 Kodai still in there?

The Mets have the second best odds to win the World Series. They have a $300million plus payroll. They have multiple hall of famers on the team, and all starts who aren't hall of famers. I get last year was a colossal disappointment but the Mets should be a lock for the playoffs barring a series of very unfortunate events.
Alex B.@KnicksCentral

The Mets disappointed me this offseason by botching the Edwin Diaz negotiations and not keeping Pete Alonso BUT… With the FA moves after that, a full year of Nolan McClean, calling up Carson Benge and year 2 of Juan Soto in Queens and I have gotten a little excited Maybe it’s blind optimism, but I think the Mets can be a playoff team this season especially if McClean and the other young pitchers take a step - my biggest concern is Devin Williams as the Closer… But let’s get this thing started Thursday Let’s Go Mets
