crap programming day x 2.. BUT, made some progress with this re-rendering issue i'm experiencing.. i really can't move forward until I fix it.

I emailed the author of the react-flux library.. no response yet. Meanwhile, I somewhat was able to reproduce the issue in some experimental code AND I was able to narrow it down to one potential function. Tomorrow, i'm back on that all day.

calves are wrecked.. curious to see how I feel tomorrow. I was supposed to do my interval runs tonight but, just too sore & it was absolutely soaked/slippery.

Shoes / Re: A shoe specifically for dunking
« on: August 30, 2016, 09:16:23 pm »
i know i've said it before but IMHO lotto quaranta is currently the best substitute. they're 7.7 ounces -- not quite 5 but still a lot lighter than any other tennis or bball shoe i've ever seen -- have flat and wide soles and are reasonably stiff.

not saying a dunk-specific shoe wouldn't be better but quarantas aren't bad. and they're cheap, ~$40.

yo! do you put insoles in them? Both of the pair I bought, the soles ripped out within a week.. and they were this weird cushion material.

I didn't like the "normal pair" too much .. but, maybe that's just because I liked the other pair I bought which was made out of that new bouncier material. I forget the name of it. I never jumped in them.. not sure if i'd enjoy SLRVJ'n in them from what I remember.. DLRVJ would have felt good I imagine.




Bro, APL already made the perfect dunking shoe!  :uhhhfacepalm: :uhhhfacepalm: :uhhhfacepalm:



Ha but actually they have some pretty interesting looking shoes now:

http://www.athleticpropulsionlabs.com/mens/athletic-footwear/basketball-shoes.html

Can't believe how many lines they have though, not only bball shoes but running as well. Such a crowded space.

WTF? they have so many models/designs now.. ha




I'm actually pretty happy with my Kobe's they're not heavy at all and lowtop, comparable to my running shoes .. the only problem is, and this is a deal breaker ... is that they're not flexible on the top so i dont get much dorsiflexion (?). if i can find a pair of shoes that have that as well i'll be super happy for a dunking shoe (and general basketball).

i've never had kobe's.. and i'm still tempted. I think I need to get a stronger shoe for MAX EFFORT slrvj... i can submax in my flats but, max effort, might be risking it a bit.. I just don't want to F up my heel.

8:30 AM

submax form running: ~3.17 mi in 28:50 min
- 5k: ~28:15 min/s
- looks really slow, but, kinda the point.
- most all of the run was midfoot - for some reason my body wanted me to go midfoot as opposed to the light heel->toe that i've been doing.
- each mile was ~9 min/mi
- worked alot on really quick GCT
- last ~.17 mi was ~6 min/mi .. which is kinda nice .. I just decided to finish with some power. it's hard to get back into 'fast mode' when i'm running in slow motion.

happy with it.. legs felt really good/bouncy.

left calf burning after.. nooo!

i see, that sounds good then. i'll probably run no longer than a mile too. it was just the losing weight/muscle thing from the extra cardio that i was concerned with though, but i guess if i wanna run guess i'll have to stuff myself afterwards. also something related, when i was in the 12th grade, it was when i seriously started bulking up, started squatting and sometimes deadlifting, and went from weighing 110 the last year to 160. for gym class, we had to run the 1.5 mile, and i remember absolutely smashing my last year's PR that year. i think that bulking up and having the extra muscle helped even though 1.5 is more long distance.

damn 110 to 160 in 12th grade is either a late growth spurt or alot of needed eating!

i also remember having more stamina and energy, and definitely had a lot more power.

nice!

what happened to your vert too? it also go up?

Looks like I have to start eating a small meal before workouts. For some reason I can run on an empty stomach but I can't lift on one.

whoa weird. for me it's the opposite. much harder to run without food.

dno. i've never been outside the US. :/  :ninja:

Am I mistaken, or didn't you go to china before, I remember you made a video about it, or was it just china town and you were just trolling us.

lmao!!! it was just a basketball gym full of asian people on one side, and black people on the other side.. that's a good memory though. :F

that was me just trolling/messing around @ 1:50 in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pI_c2dz0C_4

i'm actually glad i just re-watched that video though.. weird but cool.  :ninja:

peace man!
