Thanks for all of that Andrew.. Feel so stupid for not doing my plyos with proper dorsi flexion all this time...

What are the shock differences with reactive plyo movements using dorsi flexion vs plantar flexion?  Does dorsi flexion create more efficient/better force absorption? 

If I've been absorbing with plantar flexion all this time, I'm assuming I trained very strong force absorption (obviously inefficiently though) particularly in the calves?

np, will reply tmw! must journal then sleep.

sleep = 7 hours
bw = 168
soreness = none
aches = right knee, right calf
injuries = right 5th metacarpal - trigger finger (this morning, slightly)



Food

- orange juice



Session: Morning

freestyle warmup (at home):
- random mobility/movement stuff.. really liked this warmup
- an example: walking around on my hands in pushup position or low squat, moving around, throwing tennis balls for my dog .. lmao.

tennis:
- 2 hours
- hit REALLY good, very powerful.. i'm basically saying fuck it and i'm bringing the heat
- tried to mimic it in a match with my dad.. not as good, but decent. Had some very powerful returns of serve & shots. Must fix my backhand (needs more topspin).
- going to continue just hurting the ball.. "everything fast balls". got to bring the heat. when I hit some "dinky shots", it really pisses me off.
- i'm just going to play how I WANT to play.. and slowly get better as I play with this very aggressive style.

might cut out those long slow runs for now.. I think they taxed me a bit too much. Plus, I might do another tennis tournament this weekend.

i'd like to run tomorrow morning.. left calf is a bit tight.. i'll just replace my long/slow runs with normal runs on wed/sat/sun in the morning.

TENNIS BALL MACHINE HAS ARRIVED.. looks so well constructed.. plan to use it tomorrow, should be fun. I can really practice my backhand now and figure this thing out.

pc!

I had a dream that I was a navy seal lost in afghanistan with a machine gun and no communication.. horrible dream, death everywhere. fuck combat. everyone needs to relax.

So far today

Protein Shake: 200 calories
Some mexican shit: assumed it was 800 calories to be on the safe side

Chicken: 6 oz
Salad:4-500 calories dressing, yeah I went diesel but i will make sure the rest of my meals are high protein
chips: 140 calories

1826 calories total so far, have 1674 left.

Plan on a protein shake at 4 or so

Chili at 6 looking at regular chili nutrition facts, im guessing 500 calories

protein shake at night

I believe I made my caloric intake for the day, around 3500, it felt good and I didn't feel like I over ate or anything....juuuust right

I also want to compete in a powerlifting meet, I would like to do either the 220 class or 198, so if i can walk around at 205 or 225 so that I can just cut the weight thatd be nice.  I also have specific goals before I do though.

198 class
Skwaat: 550
Bench: 365
Pull: 500

220 class
Skwaat: 600lbs
Bench: 420lbs
Pull: 570

I also would like to do these numbers without much assistance like a belt and knee sleeves.  When i did 530 or whatever it was last time I think I only had knee sleeves on.  Belts are uncomfortable and fuck up my form so if I can get by without it then great.  This will be a long term goal, maybe I will do a few meets before I got serious, just go and hit 90% of my max or so just to practice getting used to the meets.

dope! sounds cool, do it.

you ever use a bench shirt? I watched your 355 bench vid the other day, raw pl is so dope.

ALSO!!! I'm going to bring my DBs with me to work so i can pump out some curls and what not so I'm not being a turd

2 years ago, at my last job, we had a 45 lb. db at the office. We also had a dip/pullup door attachment.. was hilarious, nobody got anything done. We called it "venice beach". It was ~5 programmers out of ~25 just doing curls, dips, overhead press, pullups etc, all day. Literally nothing got done. lmfao.. lasted 3 weeks or so ;f

Thanks Andrew

That helps a LOT!  Gotta start focusing on high frequency drills to correct my movement efficiency now!

cool np!

one thing I forgot to mention was power skips, these are a great progression and warmup for bounds:

edit:  But you say to focus on toes up even in sprinting drills.  Sprinting will still naturally be more mid-forefoot foot strike though right compared to bounding?

ya definitely. you have toes up in both but the different is where the foot makes contact in regards to your hips/center of gravity.

practicing toes up for sprinting also has some other benefits:
