I want to be able to do 500 push ups everyday and 200 sit ups everyday and build it up to whatever number.  Pull ups I'd have to wait awhile to be able to do them lmao.

where'd you get those numbers from? that's just what you want to do?

walker says he still does 1500 pushups and 3500 situps per day.. guy looked pretty beast when he fought in strike force at like near 50 years old.

Some footage, all 9'6 dunks. Am getting mid 30's in vert for these jumps. I really like coming in from the baseline, and I think Raptor or adarq mentioned something about it too. It sucks that I don't have enough space though, but I definitely feel like I get higher for some reason coming in from the baseline angle.

like i said on youtube: nice jumps.. especially that first one. it's a very springy/bouncy jump, looks very smooth. I can't imagine you wouldn't be able to get up even higher if you had more space/stronger runup. I wouldn't do that though until you feel your knee "issues" are under control. staying submax for now is definitely safer.

TKE's can work wonders for knee issues.. a strong VMO can be the difference between knee pain and health. so that's what I was eluding too last week in my journal, about 'you may be quad dominant, but they may still be weak'. Here's a very simple TKE, it's actually quite effective:

<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nKRZsGDiXiU" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nKRZsGDiXiU</a>

if you experiment with those, you want to focus everything on the VMO (teardrop quad).

there's other variations of TKE's, but that one is the most simple variation to experiment with and see if it helps.


ya i loved coming in from the baseline with DLRVJ.. i'm not as comfortable from that angle, with SLRVJ yet.

Damn, I don't know how competitive it'll be now! I know it's been mentioned before but I think you could see Lue's inexperience come into play today. They say young coaches tend to make the mistake of leaving their best players in for too long in close games. He played both Lebron and kyrie to start the 4th and all of the way through. cavs went ice cold that 4th quarter.

Meanwhile, Kerr played James Mcadoo lol. You have to trust your bench and give your top players adequate rest. Either way I'm not sure it would've made a difference but it could've kept it close. This GSW squad is just too good

yup.. and man did Lebron look frustrated at the end of that game. He was letting his emotions get the best of him, he doesn't normally get into confrontations like that. He was definitely at fault for walking over Green.. and then he roughed up Curry pretty hard. You can see it slipping away.

I still think Lebron needed to be alot more aggressive in the 4th quarter.. he's just too unselfish. He deferred alot of shots to Kyree who was literally chucking it up. Kyree had some nice drives, but would have liked to see Lebron just keep attacking.

RIP CLE.

- 4 x chocolates
- medium stir fry: grilled chicken, 1/2 sweet potato, 3 turmeric, 1 jalapeno, 1 red chili pepper, 1 serrano pepper, bunch of garlic, kalamata olives, mixed nuts, olive oil, salt/pepper, shredded beats, goat cheese at the end

Food

3:30 PM

if i feel good tomorrow, i'll probably train.. wasn't looking to optimistic for tomorrow because of my left bicep femoris tendon feeling sore/achy.. but it miraculously disappeared after I ate my stir fry.. maybe turmeric/peppers/garlic/beats are a miracle, felt damn good after that meal.

got lots of programming done, but not everything I wanted to do.. lots of other stuff kept me busy today. Tomorrow I am going to spend some time cleaning up some buttons/labels etc that are annoying me, and also spend some time cleaning up my "views'. Have some ideas to make those more versatile.

right now everything is working but i'm also hacking lots of things together just to get them to work.. that's good and bad.. means I have to clean stuff up alot, and eventually refactor certain things etc.. but i don't care, things are moving along fine at the moment.

pc!

my cousin's mom, my aunt, had cancer and got treated at sloan-kettering. hence the play, a decade later.

damn.. :/

that's the cool thing about artists though, the ability to take experiences like that and be able to transform it into something different etc.

peace!

My cousin is an actor and writer and she is destroying it right now. I am really proud of her and excited for her! And feel like bragging a little to all y'all quasi-strangers! She's about to be in another play on Broadway, with Nathan Lane and some other famous people. And the most influential and famous theater critic in New York (and therefore probably the country) gave her play that just opened a raaaaaave. Jesus.

http://www.nytimes.com/2016/06/08/theater/review-a-funny-thing-happened-on-the-way-to-the-gynecologic-oncology-unit-blends-rage-with-gallows-humor.html?_r=0

Quote
There’s a raw spot — one of the tenderest places on the continent of human emotions — that exists between laughter and pain. Make that between laughter and everything that feeds pain: rage, hatred, desperation, hopelessness, fear, even physical disease.

Such is the location of Halley Feiffer’s “A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Gynecologic Oncology Unit at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center of New York City,” a play that is as deeply felt as its name is long. To be literal, its setting is a sickeningly pink double room in the hospital of its title.

But as anyone who’s spent much time in similar rooms knows, antechambers to death are incubators for those guffaws that it’s hard to distinguish from sobs, places where you find yourself fighting a close battle with the urge to giggle madly. To give in to such an impulse, in such a context, would be very, very inappropriate.

Or would it? “Funny Thing,” which opened on Tuesday night at the Lucille Lortel Theater, makes a convincing case that hard laughter is an absolutely appropriate response, if not a socially sanctioned one, to those moments when life seems like too bad a joke not to respond otherwise.

whoa, sick review. I'm sure she must be ecstatic about that. After a rave review from an esteemed critic, shows must sell out quickly.

side note: coincidentally I just got back from, going to see my mom's new oncologist.
