right foot felt fine today except for one position.

there's one position I can stand in, which is weird and I basically have to force it - that position causes my foot to get quite painful.. it happens when i'm standing straight up, and i flex my right toes of my right foot, basically stretching out the top of my foot.

so might test some short runs tomorrow.

last night's sleep: ~10 hours
last night fell asleep: 2:30 AM
wakeup = 12:30 PM
bw = 149
morning resting heart rate = didn't measure
soreness = none
aches = none
injuries = toenails slightly wrekt, right foot (somewhere around 2nd proximal phalange)
standing desk (when on computer): none
feel = good
water = drank normal



Food

12:30 PM

- oatmeal/raisin cookie
- 2% milk



Food

3 PM
- heat game :(

- blue corn chips + salsa
- green tea



Food

8 PM

- huge stir fry: ~1.25 whole grain cups couscous, grilled chicken, goat cheese, zucchini, carrots, garlic, kalamatta olives, red chili pepper, olive oil, mixed nuts

Food

11:30 PM

- 2% milk



Session: Activation

12 AM

- standing, alternating straight leg hip extension: 3 x 100 total
-- used alternating arms also.. which turned out to be difficult. I realized i'm used to doing cross-extensor-flexor when focusing on hip flexion, not hip extension.. so it was pretty confusing at first. Since my off leg remains on the ground, I don't get the hip flexion portion.. so my arm didn't want to work.. but it should still work because i'm moving a leg into extension. so this could be useful.

- toe extension/flexion
-- really focusing hard on flexion.. sometimes foot feels like it's going to cramp.. toes don't all work going into flexion, have to focus on it to get them to finally flex more fully.

Mate you're getting back up there lately. Great stuff.

Thanks Coges. I'm still a fair way off where I used to be though.

I played pick up today for 3 hours. My team won every game in king of the courts.

I did 10 dunk attempts and only managed to land 1 of them so my best vertical is around 34 inches atm. I can't even touch the rim from standing vertical (26 inches for me to touch the ring) but with a run up I'm able to get 30+ on every attempt.

34" = good stuff ^^

it's just one glute or both? if both, nice.. if one, eek.

if you've ever done heavy high volume squatting, heavy high volume lunging, you should have experienced something like that before.. glutes so sore you can barely walk and simply touching them is very painful.

hope it's just BAD doms and nothing more.

  it is also very healing and enhances athleticism no matter what sports you do.  and put in enough time and effort, you can increase your flexibility.  granted it might be a very slow process for some but, never the less everyone can improve their flexibility.

I favor stretching being beneficial most entirely due to personal experiences with it. There's times where i've stretched a ton the day prior, then the next day I feel springier than ever.

 It was "permanent" flexibility, in the sense that, when I woke up, I could easily get my heel to my butt without any "working into it".. legs just felt so loose/springy. Love that feeling.


I agree with both of these posts. Stretching especially helps me prepare for a big tournament. I just stretch+roll and feel so bouncy the next day

I didn't read the articles.. But I wanted to say that stretching helps me prep recovering joints for harder forces and extreme ranges of motion.

nice

I have complained about my poor hamstring flexibility but I have seen marked short-term improvements after pushing RDL ROM with a locked back. RDL's are essentially PNF stretches, so I can attest for the effectivness of that. If I did consistent PNF stretches I think I would develop much better flexibility

ya RDL's are solid for hamstring flexibility.

There's also AIS which seems alot safer than PNF. I personally don't like the ~10-15s ISO portion of PNF stretching.. I like AIS better.. though I tend to do lots more static lately. I should experiment more with AIS again (I haven't been able to find my stretch rope for a while now, which is probably why I haven't done any rope stretches):

For example this guy has some nice videos:
