Tried to upload the video, and after I did, it was immediately removed for copyright issues, even being unlisted, wtf!

Anyway, attached a picture with what's going on:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0By8lzXoJJdmqSXlRT0tiZ1JWVnM/view?usp=sharing

To translate what's going on there, it's like this:

Sharp pain = neuron X stimulated, then after a short time neuron Y is fired and it inhibits neuron X, pain disappears
Chronic pain = neuron X stimulated, neuron Y is inhibited, neuron X keeps firing => chronic pain that doesn't stop

When you generate some acute pain ("rough" massage) you fire the acute pain pathway, neuron X gets stimulated through that pathway (it was already stimulated through the chronic pathway) but then neuron Y gets stimulated as well, and Y inhibits X. So you can force neuron Y to fire through this acute pain that you're inflicting, in turn making X to be turned off (hopefully).

nice thanks!

I have a neuro-muscular testing book (Clinical Application of Neuromuscular Techniques), which I recall described it similarly. I just skimmed through it, might give some of it a re-read. If I stumble upon that discussion, i'll post it.

biomechanics of the long jump

Also a really good paper about the effect of environmental variables on the long jump:

Starting with a de-load day though. As I posted earlier, I'm doing a rotating de-load where I cut down on the volume of a workout. I think this will help.

ya I like it.

Did you tip him?  Shoulda just walked outta there.. haha jk

ya i did.. i figured i'd never see him again and just to tip him and get out of there as soon as possible. HEH!!!

I felt bad for him, he thought he did a great job. I'm too nice.

But damn you drink a lot of gatorade throughout the day.  Isn't that not good to do insulin wise or you really need all that hydration from all the running you do?

nah i don't drink much gatorade at all.. the gatorade I had yesterday was just 2 glasses. Most days I don't drink any.

I definitely felt I needed it yesterday though. I forgot to mention I added "extra salt", need to edit the post.

How'd you get in that 24 without membership?  Did you get those 3 day passes?  I remember I got one once and fuck they make you take a damn tour with one of the sales reps or something and they try to show you how nice it is and then make you sit down at the member sign up area and talking about bullshit like "if you sign up today we have a sale for blah blah".  I literally said "I can't decide yet, I'll workout and think about it" and they wouldn't let me leave lolll.  He kept on trying to sell me the membership so hard it was beyond ridiculous.  I only went cause my gym was closed and I needed to squat that day lol

hah I got a membership !! I figured now that i'm under 160 and want to jump more, I should do it mostly on an indoor surface to make it easier on my body. I got the membership simply for the bball gym access. I'll do a few lifts/bodyweight exercises (back extension/pullups etc) in there though.

I think i'm going to go there tomorrow and get some jumps in.

McGregor's prediction for the Aldo fight:

"I felt when we stared down, I felt his right hand was twitching, which was a subtle tell for me. He is ready to unload that right hand and I feel that will be a downfall for him. if he lets that right hand go, I will not be there. I simply enter the way I enter, and that is enough, they either overextend or they shrink away, but either way it is not good for them. I will create traps and dead-space inside that octagon and i will walk him into that dead space, but all of a sudden he will be in danger. We will collide in the middle of the octagon and José will fall on the first exchange" - Conor McGregor

spot on..

I'm digging this thread man.

nice!

I love how McGregor is obsessed with MOVEMENT. It's not something you see much of in fight sports.

I've been doing some yoga movements to open up my body and really get my hips mobile for soccer but this seems a lot more effective in doing that.

ya. looks more effective but i'm no yoga expert. just so much more you can do with "movement training". also makes use of alot more "dynamic" movements instead of static holds.

Any links to simple progressions? I would def work this stuff on recovery days/ use as a warmup. You  can just see the relationship he has with his body by the way he moves and even stands. Awesome athlete

no idea. ido portal's youtube has a ton of stuff, i'd browse there for starters.
