My last logged stretch : January 2018
Previous before that : November 2016
I always do dynamic stretching though before squats and basketball. That's a different story. Static? never! Can't tell if right or wrong though, we'll never know how it would be if i did stretch.

Bodyweight@session : ???
Soreness : none
Injuries/aches : don't remember
1½ hours full court basketball.
Again all around good. Good endurance, speed, strength. And a bit more than good vert/spring, feels like my body is always ready for a good jump now. Maybe it is the power cleans. Ill take it. Must do rim jumps sometime soon.
Friday was a day off here so was away on a mini vacation till Sunday midnight. Not a total waste, got in some insane volume of (recreational/touristic) walking, e.g. Saturday was ~15km!!!

Gotta start running again. No real run since previous Saturday's race. Just 20 mins bike and 1 bball session (ok 1 more bike today and 1 more bball tomorrow ). Not a dramatic off but gotta get back at it relatively soon.
Also, i want to buy a smart watch. I was thinking Samsung galaxy watch ( im a samsung guy, got mobile and TV and i am really happy with them ). Note that the strongest reason for getting it is for fitness tracking. Samsung watch is a great all around choice. But the Samsung running app on my mobile (samsung health) is very basic, it keeps only total time, total kcals and 1km splits. No custom laps, no other auto metrics. e.g. if from 1.5km to 2.5km i do 4', but 1 to 1.5 / 2.5 to 3 was walking , like 5' each, then the log will say 2nd km was 7 minutes and 3d km was 7 minutes, the intermittent 1km PR is lost.
I searched a bit the reviews but couldn't find what i wanted. Before i dig deeper, can you guys tel me:
Long shot : Is there someone with a samsung watch? Or someone that can easily find the full specs of the samsung watch fitness tracker?
For a larger target group : Is there a mobile app (android) that does such complicate measurements? Ideally i would like a full report like those that adarq posts. 12 mins test, fastest km fastest mile fastest idk what. That's garmin right? Is that from a built in app? Or from a post-processor that i can download too?
If i can get good/complex measurements with an app, i will prefer the samsung watch. If not, then i will opt out the smart/cell stuff and will buy a garmin watch.
Thanks and cheers!

1½ hours full court basketball.
All good. Endurance, speed, strength, vert, all good. Still gassing out though. I think that from a basketball perspective, my aerobic base is solid, i need to improve my anaerobic abilities. I have to ( and i wanted to, regardless of bball ) bring back tempo work in my running sessions.

Damn, next age group is harder, 22' gets you in top 5 in 40-44 but not even top 10 in 44-49. Anyway, that changes from event to event, just wanted to have a clear map of what it takes to get some serious ranking.
