After 40 club

This is actually a basic tenet of TB that I have discarded - I do ZERO HIC. A light mobility session goes much further in terms of aiding the rest of my training program (the MS, E, BJJ). Something worth tinkering with.

This is very interesting.. Can you please elaborate a little? Thank you.

So, right now I am in the tail end of a 10 week E centric block. The week has been structured broadly this way:

M - Bench Press (531 FSL), Pullups 10xEMOM. A relaxed 5k jog in the evening.
T - SQ (531 FSL), KB Swings. Mobility Work for 15min (whatever I feel needs attention. For me usually shoulders gets a bit more time.
W - Another E session. Alt weeks is a faster run (1.5m, 5k, 10k, etc).
T - REST
F - I do my long run (10-20k depending) after dinner.
S - BJJ (this is sometimes HIC-ish if the right crowd shows up)
S - REST/MOBILITY DAY - I chill by the pool and just do v relaxed yoga-ish stuff.

So yeah, basically I find HIC hard to fit in, I don’t really feel I want to do it and it compromises the rest of my week in terms of recovery.

Thank you!! This is something I will be thinking about..

Bark, you might need to move up a weight class, but you've got time. You can do this!

Working amongst a bunch of 40+ y/o, just my observation, there’s many that still perform 1-3 HIC style sessions a week, it depends on what the rest of their training entails however. Most that strength train 2-3 times a week may do one to two HICs while others that have little interest in strength work typically get away with more HIC training. MAS training in terms is of recovery seems to work well with almost any age bracket, depending on how it’s programmed. For those that still actively compete in sports that want some form of HIC that feel may have slowed recovery, MAS training could be a viable option. The same could be said for shorter “sprint” work on non impact cardio machines such as an Airbike or even hill sprints to a degree.
This being said everyone should listen to their bodies and structure their programming accordingly, even with specific goals in mind.
Just thought I would add my 2c after reading some of the recent comments.

That's worth at least 3c! I think you are right, too. The main thing for me is duration (or number of repeats) on these.
