I know other people are gonna read this, but you guys seem to have alot of knowledge on "Muscle Fibers" and stuff like that...
I got a question, I definantly have more fast twitch muscle fibers than slow twitch, i can strike real quick and i can sprint, but when it comes to endurance, i get tired extremly quick, i always have since i was little...
El Pietro said something about training just the required muscle fibers such as fast, will do something(forgot) and if you train BOTH, then you use more energy because of the more work or something...(sorry this is starting to sound like i dont know what im talking about)...
But anyway, i want to continue to get fast, but i have a pretty bad endurance problem, i eat as good as i can(try to get protiens/carbs and a little fat), when i get my job im gonna start eating real good. I dont have real bad health or anything, im 17yrs. 5'5 my weight alters daily(even if i weigh myself at 1 time at night) between 128-132(its random)...I got much more muscle than anythign else, (i think i got a little fat cuz my abs got some skin on em, maybe from when i lost like 10lbs from being sick, i got an extremly high metabolism, can never gain weight)...
What I do now isn't exactly a ROUTINE...but i probably should be, but i dont have enough weights, i have just 1 hammer curl bar, with a little weight(so i curl EXTREMLY slow, 2-4 seconds each way, squeeze out about 10 reps/3 sets) and i do pushups, situps when i feel like it, neck bridges, tricep extensions on occasion, lower back workouts(laying on edge of couch, lift up n look toward ceiling)...i kinda just do whatever i feel like doing(in proper order though, like abs before pushups to stabalize trunk, ect.)...
What do you suggest i do to train Strength, Speed, and endurance with the equipment i have, u can even devise an entire workout(if you feel like it) and i'll decide the reps/sets, (so i dont overtrain or nothing)...
Also, when i train i never feel sore or tired, i feel relatively good, jes a little weaker(just a little)...The way that wrestlers train is crazy(to me), they do tons of running and pushups and then wrestle on top of that, and they are sore almost every day, and they do it like 6 days a week, is that healthy?
