Exercise-induced or exertion headaches. Note that I am not a doctor, and this is not medical advice. -About 1 in 100 people will experience these, and there are 2 kinds. The first usually presents as throbbing headaches that last between 5 mins to 2 days. The secondary type, more serious, is usually related to an underlying medical problem that presents as an EH. This is indicated with vomiting, neck stiffness, and other symptoms. Here's an article by the Mayo Clinic you might want to skim. -If you don't like reading, watch this video about EHs. -Some common theories for why these happen include changes in blood flow and low blood sugar. If this happens to you, see your doctor. Ice packs can help once they occur, but doing neck flexion/extension mobility, sleeping, eating, and hydrating well are the best preventative measures. Really useful practical advice regarding EH. Also, in case you thought we were getting jacked, just note our main focus is getting strong. Scroll through the not great for work images of bodybuilders and read about rep ranges and training methods. No one's naked but your cube mate might be a little nonplussed. Bodybuilding vs. powerlifting. Maybe I should have added a survey question to see if y'all wanted to work on the pump? (JK but please fill out the survey in the post below). Friday WOD: WU: 1 min on, 1 min off, for 3 total rounds of 1.5/1 pood kb swings. 5-5-5 DB Z press each hand Mob: Foam roller, and stretch overhead position. Roll out hamstrings. WOD: Z Press with barbell. Spotters on these if you don't have the Rogue supports. Or just make sure the bar clears your legs, you know. Keep abs tight and maintain hamstring tension through the lift. We're not just chillin' on the ground, we're holding our bodies tight for maximum tension. 5-5-5-3-3-3-1-1-1 Supp:
100 Piston pushdowns. We haven't done these for a while. Start on your knees, when you fail, stand up until failure again. 100 Triceps pulldowns w/straight arms. Similar to our triceps pulldowns we've been doing. If time, do double KB clean and presses before the 100's.
