Was supposed to go hoop some this morning so I woke up early only to find the gym closed this week for some floor work. Went to the outdoor court...humid and gnats everywhere so I drove over to another gym and played a few games but no competition really and I was very demotivated after all that lol!

Might go play tonight with some guys, we'll see. :/

Good news related to training this morning. FINALLY got an appointment next week with a physical therapist! Low back has still been giv8ng me hell randomly so hopefully we can sort this out. I could have got in to some other guys earlier but this one is considered the best in the area so hoping the wait is worth it.

Amen LBSS.

Entropy, you say you've neglected back training for awhile now, when you neglect something it doesn't stay with you. Now, it should come back qu8cker than it was achieved according to some but I don't think you got to 170x5 by doing heavy singles, right? So why do you expect that to get you there now? Idk, maybe I'm mis-reading you but I think you're going about this all wrong. You seem to want PRs every single session but that cant be maintained forever. Everyone plateaus once in awhile, you just need to be patient and keep working.

Ughhhhhh. He makes it look so damn EASY!!!! Haneef is a monster, so underrated IMO.

I can't play sports in tight clothes. Everyday attire I have no issue with fitted clothes, but I've never been comfortable in shorter shorts on a field of play. I hated track season because of the shorts lol!  And, everyone says I'm weird about this, I can't stand my knees for some reason. Hate them. Shorts must cover my knees when standing. Idk why, my parents say I was like that when I was younger as well. Anyways...I only where the Jordan bramd shorts since they have a longer inseam yet still fit, I don't want my shorts to fall off.

So yea, weird self conscious shit.

It'd probably speed up the motion substantially.  Just gotta keep working on it.

I'm on cloud 9 currently.  Ran full court games with some D2 kids and a D1 pg tonight, very good comp but we won 3 out of 5 and I played pretty well. Mid range was off a little but 3 ball was money. Anyway...afterwards I wanted to see if this mornings 'bounce' was still there, walked up and was expecting to weakly put in a two step one hander but I ended up crushing a 2 hander. After that a mini dunk show just jumped off, Andy a 6'3" guard at Carson-Newman started dunking and Devin whos going to Delta State joined in. I guess seeing everyone dunking got me amped up because I ended up killing a bunch of reverses and a 2 hander of the glass. Andy did a windmill off a lob so I said f it and tried one too. Surprised myself, I got it clean. Im not sure who was more stunned me or everyone else lol! Tried it again and rattled it in. Told Devin to film it and promptly got hung on the rim. Either way I'll post the vid of me getting hung, had decent extension IMO. Suffice to say I'm ready to lift and jump more!!!
