Pushing a Heavy object - Right foot forward
2-foot jump plant - LR
Kick - Left leg
Starting sprint stance - Right leg forward
1 foot jumping leg - Right leg

I'm right handed and jump much higher off my right leg than my left. Also, my handle (such as it is) is much better with my left hand than with my right. When I do jumps at the rim I reach with my left hand, because my shoulder is higher on that side so I can reach higher.

The differences are huge, too. I was never much of a soccer player but when I'm messing around left leg is a lot more powerful and a LOT more dexterous (see what I did there?) than right. Even popping a basketball up to myself off the ground, left foot is automatic. Dribbling with my left hand is MUCH more comfortable than with my right hand, although admittedly I suck at both. LR plant is probably twice as good as RL plant, shit just gets awkward when I try to go RL. Sprint isn't quite so much of a difference in terms of which foot starts forward, but in a race I would definitely do right foot forward.

Interesting thread.

Shit is just confusing bro...you sure you ain't left handed...lol. Maybe your partially ambi-dexterous or something....or maybe ambi-sinister!!!

There benefit gets diluted because if your body has already filled it's need for the vitamins and other compounds in bananas it's more than likely gonna have you get rid of em. If possible you should def be eating at least 5 different fruit and vegs a day. If you eat 2-3 bananas that's fine but you should still be eating 4 other different fruits or vegetables.

Go back over your log for the past 2 weeks and count the amount of gatorades and fast-food entries you got in there man. I'm just going by what i'm seeing.

And dark chocolate ain't bad for you..once it's real chocolate! Anyway i'm just giving you my opinion on it man. You helped me out and I wanna help you out. I do know about this stuff- I've studied immunology, nutrition and biochemistry all in depth. I went to one of the most renowned schools for immunology and biochem in the world. I thought the whole idea behind the site is athletes tryna help each other out and that's what i'm tryna do. I don't want you to take it the wrong way bro. I'm sticking by my guns though - i'm betting your diet ain't doing you any favors in the health department.

As for your fat intake - you've got pretty much zero intake of EPA and DHA. Two essential fatty acids that your body basically can't produce by itself.

Eating a bunch of bannanas ain't gonna give you the same health benefit as eating a selection of fruits and vegetables either. I think the reccomendation set in America is for 5 different fruit and vegetables a day. I've read the reviews and journals by the people who set these guidelines and basically they are telling you to eat that much 'cos they know if they tell you to eat the proper amount you'll just give up 'cos it's too much. The guidelines set in Japan, for example, are much higher. It's like over 10 portions of different fruits and vegetables a day.

Bottom line - any nutritionist, or health scientist or doctor worth their salt, would look at your diet and say it's not optimal for a normal person or an athlete.

Adarq - As much as I love the website and what you're doing for everyone - and I gotta say this too, so don't be pissed at me, your diet just ain't healthy man. Not by a longshot! If it was playing a significant part in you being sick/not feeling I wouldn't be suprised!

It should get better by itself eventually. Most illnesses do otherwise people would be dropping off left, right and centre. It's better to go to a doctor when they'll let you but don't worry too much man. You'll probably be fine.

Haha...love the big dude watchin ya.


FWIW, most bacterial infections are gonna be staph or strep and the vast majority are not serious.  But if you're getting recurrent infections you've got to get to the bottom of why your immune system is weak at the moment.

WORD. Don't worry man. Get to the doctor if you can. If not you're a healthy dude, if you weren't you wouldn't be able to put in all the work you do. Your body would shut down. I'm pretty sure it's not gonna be the end of Adarqui!

Staph infection doesn't equal MRSA. Also the common cold and flu can lead top organ and tissue damage. Doesn't mean that always or even usually do.
