Fartlek

For those of you who ran cross country and track, you probably already know what a fartlek is. For those of you who don't, athletes often do fartleks to increase aerobic and anaerobic capabilities. The term "fartlek" was first introduced by a Swedish cross country coach, Gösta Holmér, and literally means "speed play."

Fartlek training is different from interval training in that it is continuous with varying increases in intensity. This type of training is ideal for ultimate conditioning because it incorporates varying spurts with continuous moving recovery in between. It's different from interval training in that you are not aiming to run a certain time for a set distance, with a set recovery time. With fartleks, you can run anywhere because you just have to run for a given amount of time.

Some common examples of fartleks that I did in high school are:

30sec on, 30sec off
1min on, 1min off

So what does "on" and "off" mean?

"On" can basically be any upbeat pace that you feel suits your training. Remember, you want to feel like your sucking air throughout this workout, so don't be afraid to push your limits.

"Off" does not mean stop and lean over with your hands on your knees gasping for air; "off" means jog. After you finish your "on" time, bring it down to a easy jog for a set time and get ready for the next "on" interval.

The glorious thing about fartleks is that you can set the pace to your own needs, and still run it with other people. If you're running the "on" intervals faster than the others, then after the interval is over, just start your jog back to pick up the others. Just because someone is running faster, it doesn't mean they are working harder than you, it just means they are at a different level than you, so don't get discouraged if you fall behind when running with someone else.

Here are some fartleks that I think could be beneficial for your conditioning...

- Any workout should start with a good warmup, so start with a nice 10-15min warmup
- Next, you can find a nice neighborhood that you feel like running your workout through. End your warmup at this neighborhood and stretch out any little things that need to be addressed.
- Now the real work comes...

If you're just starting out, you can do the 30sec on/off or the 1min on/off for a good 15-20min. If you feel like you want more speed endurance, you can adjust it to 1min on 30sec off or 90sec/2min on and 1min off. You can even incorporate a ladder type workout: 1min/45sec/30sec/15sec with 30 sec recovery for each. The possibilities are endless; do what you think is benefiting you the most.

Guess Who's Back?

BOOMLAND'S BACK!

More to come when I get a break from studying....

Use the Claw

Well friends, I feel the urge to come clean here. This may, in fact, be the last post of mine on the Boomland Blog. Shocking at the very least, I know. If we would have been a bit more on the ball about posting things there may have been another post but given our excessive time between post I don't really see another one happening.

So here's what I'm going to leave you with, some handy information that I've learned. Actually let's narrow that down to over the past week since I'm a fountain of knowledge.

1) Miley Cyrus will instantly turn a normal party into something more
2) It is never a good idea to mess with Mickey
3) It's illegal to layout on the quad
4) Putting off ME 350 homework is much easier with a blog to help use up the time (textsfromlastnight is also a good option)

And finally, in the words of the great Miles Corcoran at Lion Eyes last year, "I fucking love you guys." We were teammates all last year on Boomland together, if we're not all together again this year we're all teammates that are, or have been, part of Illinois Ultimate

Later doggys

Criss-Cross-Crash Bios

Alright assholes, here's the final bios

Joe Conerty - The token tall ginger of this team, Joe compliments his height with an insatiable hunger for burritos. Tackled the enormous burrito at some place in Baton Rouge. Debateably best rookie to have at a party that doesn't break stuff

Dana Caton - Dana was a stud swimmer in high school that decided Illinois was worth no scholarship. He's got some gnarly head fakes, on and off the field to boot. Next to Miley, one of the most likely to lose his shirt for the ladies, buzz word for that to happen has yet to be discovered

Jeff Gordon - Nascar has managed to perfect the art of the left turn cut he initiated last year. If he can find a way make it go right, and use the speed he showed in the combine he'll be a real NHRA hero

Aaron Yao - Uses his ability to wear a headband to full effect and perform the con of being a soccer player. One the Walden scale of honorability, he rates about a 7 with 1 being Mickey and a 10 for Walden

Rob Dreier - High school tennis super star, lost ability to smash 140 mph forehand in rubber match against Andy Roddick. Claims to be able to beat anyone on the team at Sesame Street Uno. These may or may not be truthful, but there's only so much I can do with the wrong-handed

Ryan 'Papa Bear' Kurnik - Rounds out car awesome for Mardi Gras managing to talk my voice hoarse during said trip. Second loudest on the team behind McLain, as a freshmen no less. Look to him to step up in the next 3 years and lead Fun Squad to new heights

Nik Patel - The heir apparent to the Indian title on the team. Nik isn't the loudest, maybe he's the quietest, leading to speculation on his non-Ultimate life. My goal for next year is to bring him out of his shell, and if not create a monster, then at least a force to be reckoned with

Steve Haake - Yet another Downers Grove product, honestly how many are there? Anyway, like Cozza, did gymnastics in high school but dont expect ill-advised completions just yet. Do expect a new heir-apparent to "GINGER SMASH" up and down the field, just as soon as he realizes he can run over skinny kids like me

Jacob Nelson - Arguably the most interesting running motion on the team, he appears physically in pain while in motion. Expect him to usurp the gangliest man on the team as soon as a graduate, a perfect replacement

Kevin 'Sprite' Cleary - Maybe the most party for the size. At 1 oompa-loompa in height, Sprite brings the thunder. He masqueraded as Chrysler's younger brother to work his charms on high schoolers. Is currently relearning how to play to the removal of his power source, Ernie the Hernia. RIP

Brandon Smith - I would call him mini-me, but that just isn't PC enough. So let's leave it at tall, awesome hair and pretty alright throws. Hasn't caught handleritis yet, but hopefully its inevitable onset won't be too significant

Jack Rabuck - The only person to submit an application to ride home with McKinley and I from Champaign after spring break. Possibly the funniest email I have ever seen. He excels at party games and uses his charisma to effectively 'Cheat to Win'

Charlie Ma - Although he doesn't show us, there are rumors aplenty he leads a pint sized Asian gang across campus that chalk complex transfer equations on the quad. Charlie also has bravery far beyond his size, he had his wisdom teeth taken out in Champaign instead of his native Boston, Mass.

Tim Pien - Another Boston native. Fun Fact - The Departed is his biography, Leonardo DiCaprio was forced to fill in for Jackie Chan to make it more 'Boston.' When not playing ultimate, Tim enjoys owning kids at Super Smash Bros. Watch out Troy

Adam Wright - Once spiked a dead disc at summer league. Once punched a hole in a wall after losing flip cup. Once enjoyed being hit on by cougars at Summerfest. Once ditched Mardi Gras for high school state wrestling. Many times threw scores. Knows numbers well enough to be a EE major

Kevin Bruns - Not much is known about this specimen outside ultimate. Might be Superman, its possible I suppose. More likely theory is that he was born to lead gingers to the promised land. Location yet to be decided, Atlantis at the top of the list
