absolutely

ridiculous

game.



I couldn't sit down for the entire second half. I might have lost my voice a bit.

What an amazing performance from Klay. Lights out, unconscious, no hesitation shooting from everywhere on the court.

Igoudala's DEFENSE ftw.

Curry also showed up in the 2nd half.. hitting daggers.

GSW just battled back from the grave, slowly, knocking down 3's while OKC knocked down 2's.. slowly digging themselves out. Once they got that lead, it seemed over. OKC had nothing.

Now GSW has to close out.

unreal.

man.. nail-biter game.

i'm really hoping GSW can just play CLEAN in the second half.. so many sloppy/unforced turnovers. please, just clean that up..

also i'd like to see curry get more aggressive. he's passed up some good shots in the paint.

and man klay keep ballin.

how has no one posted this yet? he's graduated from balls to faces!

i didn't even see that one.. wtf? someone needs to get Green in check.. what a nutbag.. solid hamstring flexibility though.

i've thought about falling asleep in a stretch before but i'd never do it.. sounds like a very bad idea.

last night i did fall asleep in a stretch (right hip/sacral spine).. I did it purposefully. however, it was just a normal ROM for most people, lying on my side with knees slightly bent and one foot cross over the other.. it stretches the F out of some glute/erectors originating in my sacral spine.. felt damn good when I woke up.

some people have actually done (contemplated) some crazy shit though:
- http://kitlaughlin.com/forums/index.php?/topic/632-stretch-experiment-sleeping-in-a-stretch/
- http://www.coolrunning.com.au/forums/?showtopic=18269

i bet there's a ton more out there.

the part about potentially losing a limb makes sense..

last night fell asleep: ~3 AM
wakeup = 11:30 AM
bw = 148
morning resting heart rate = didn't measure
soreness = calves slightly, hamstrings slightly
aches = none
injuries = toenails slightly wrekt, right hip flexor slightly (~tendonitis), left hip flexor very slightly
standing desk (when on computer): none
feel = tired
water = enough



Food

12 PM

- 2 x wheat toast with peanut butter
- beet + tart cherry juice
- green tea
- banana



Food

4 PM

- greek yogurt



Session: Evening

6 PM

runs:
1. 0.07 mi in ~20s

2. 0.14 mi in ~43s

3. 0.12 mi in ~35s

4. 0.13 mi in ~38s

5. 1.02 mi in 5:49
- split: 1 mi in 5:40
- 1 km: 3:22
- max speed: 13.2 mph
- avg speed: 10.5 mph
- major drop off after first small street crossing.. bleh. right when i hit that point, i went from >= 11 mph to low 10's.. that spot is 0.44 in.. so i guess the good news is, i dropped off so bad at 0.44 mi but still was only 1s off of my 1 KM PR. need to get mentally tougher on these portions of a course that allow me to slow down, it's like an excuse to go slower.

right hip flexor started feeling bad after the run..

6. 0.56 mi in 3:39
- felt dead and just was like F it.. hip flexor didn't bug during the run, but it was on my mind so i just shut it down.
- i need to make sure I don't run slow.
- only good thing is I felt very slow and was still running 6:32 pace


had some potential stomach cramps and that weird chest/rib cramp thing going on, but mostly during warmup runs.. actual mile sprint the left rib thing would surface and disappear, but very slight, nothing major.

legs felt heavy today, but still had some good power.



Food

7 PM

- 2% milk



Food

8:30 PM

- a ton of cold cherries
- mixed nuts
- green tea
- 2 x veggie egg rolls
- banana



Session: Stretching

11:45 PM - 12:30 AM

- some very nice stretching, mostly hamstrings, adductors, back, and quads
- some upper
- did lots of standing floor touch stretches: feet together, feet apart, feet out very wide, etc.. also feet neutral/turned in/turned out etc.. but I was trying to lock my legs safely, while getting most of the stretch in my hamstrings AND sacral spine.. i have some weird tightness going on in my sacral spine for a long time now.. when I stretch it, i can feel referred pain in lots of different places.. it's weird. but i also have that issue in there which could be the culprit.
- felt great after that stretching session

i need to keep loosening up/strengthening/targeting my sacral spine.

might need to start doing more prone-floor variations when i do my holds/activation.



Food

12:30 AM

- 2 x greek yogurt
- brie and sesame crackers



a bit of coding.. didn't get done what I wanted too. ;/

people always end up asking what is this "T0ddday method". Deserves it's own thread + sticky.

from what I recall, T0ddday & LBSS worked together on this technique. Then LBSS named it after him. (correction?)

From something LBSS posted:

http://www.adarq.org/progress-journals-experimental-routines/from-bull-to-beast-hopefully/msg118231/#msg118231

Quote
1. do a standing jump.
2. walk back and do a one-step jump. if it's higher than your SVJ, then proceed to 3. if not, continue doing one-step jumps, messing with your approach, trying different amounts of knee bend, different distances, etc., until one-step is higher than SVJ.
3. walk back a little farther and do a two-step jump. if this is higher than your one-step, proceed to 4. if not, repeat the second part of 2.
4. walk back a little farther and do a three-step jump. proceed as above.
5. etc., until the extra step no longer gets you any higher.

you are not allowed to add a step until that step consistently gives you more height over previous steps. this isn't that specific to basketball, because it grooves a very specific pattern. but if you're just trying to dunk anything at all under perfect circumstances (join the club!), then it's a good method.

if there's some more detailed posts, or something that deserves to be in this OP, let me know and i'll update.

pC!

"go get it" is a consistent theme on here.. TI did it justice with this song.

<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xvM3YwmDfwE" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xvM3YwmDfwE</a>

that $hit gets me hype.

they stole the fan intro from my Schizo dunk mix though.  :ninja:



i might have posted this before.. but just heard it in some other vid and had to go play the official version. ;f

endomondo actually says my best 1-mile walking is 12:11.. but that's when I ran at the end due to lightning haha.. I ran ~0.2 mi @ ~11+ mph.. funny considering I can probably beat that time eventually by just walking.

i've cut out ice cream (for the most part) and removed grains (couscous) from my stir fry meals.. kind of had to though because i'd start packing on the weight since i'm not doing as much volume running anymore.. feels great so far though. I'd still like to see if I could get into the low 140's. :ninja:

walking definitely helps. straight up fat burn session without any CNS fatigue.
