Got some research on the leg drains darq?
Dit that stuff ages ago, supposedly helps and felt great, haven't read a single paper on it yet though.

Other then that, dope stills, looking forward to the vid

nope no papers on my part, could search tomorrow possibly.. it's in science & practice and you can see chinese oly lifters doing variations of it after training sessions..

all i know is it is effective, ive been consistent with it lately and it's helping a ton.

thanks 4 the compliment too man, pc

BTW ZGIN

leg drain is, legs propped up ~80 degrees, relaxed, while ur supine on the floor (on ur back), relaxing, pillow under head chillin`, for at least 10 minutes.. I do mine for 15-30 minutes while I irc/forum.. makes legs feel great, helps return pooled blood/inflam chemicals etc from the legs. it also reduces blood flow slightly and you get a little hypoxic environment going on, also good for recovery.

pc

haha. as soon as i posted in my journal, i googled it and found what it was. Can i do it 20 min after the end of my workout?

ya go for it.. i do 30 lol.. legs actually become painful at that point, then i stand up and i feel amazing ;d

Andrew if you know how to fix my post so that the video embeds properly go right ahead and fix that up would you.

done!

nice post man, great to see a jumping vid from you.. the run up doesn't look near as bad as you think it does, if you practiced more sure, it would be much more efficient, but you can see the base efficiency is there.. all that's missing is more power, other than that, the runup + jump looked good imo.

nice post man!

Forgot to log a few days ago... 12-18-10

Ankle rehab during upper body session:

Resistance band around forefoot, 2 sets of each- in/out/up/down.

Light sprint down long hallway (~20-25yards), ~20 light pogos, light skipping back down hallway - 3 sets of this

2 sets of one legged calf raises on stairs.

Ankle flared up a little from this session, iced afterwards and the next day.

be careful with the ONE LEGGED calf raise, i'd just go two for now, or at least rotate single and double.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


12-20-10

Ankle rehab:

Resistance band- 3x20 each - in/out/up/down

3x15 one legged calf raises on stairs. 2x15 with foot turned to the inside ~30 degrees.

Stretched by pulling forefoot back towards body and to the inside a bit.

Epsom salt with warm water, stretched again afterwards.



how'd it feel after 12/20 ?

Same. Usually violence is directed towards those involved or those who would affect those involved. Most targets of violence are either directly involved with government or cartels. My family would have to get really unlikely to get hurt, but it does happen. What's interesting is that that some of the cartels operate like businesses and refuse to get civilians involved. It's like they have their own public relations thing going on. I'm actually working on a research paper on it for my English 1010 class.

interesting.. i've seen lots of crazy shit goes on with business owners etc, very scary to own a business in mexico.. dont pay up and you could end up dead.

Felt pretty lazy today. Quads are still sore by the knee, which is pretty weird. Never had the soreness so low. Didn't get to the gym today, but I did get a $25 gift card to walmart from a raffle I apparently won at the blood drive. Kinda makes the blood pooling all worth it. haha. Still hasn't completely gone away. Feeling good, but it's still there. Might go get it checked out again to be sure.

weird about the quad soreness but, that gift card definitely doesn't make that requiem-for-a-dream-bruise worth it.. lolol

try leg drain, 10-15minute with legs propped up completely relaxed at ~80deg angle, lying on your back on the floor.. just chill.. see if it helps.

Squats
[135,185,225 x6][275,325 x4][365x2][385,405 x1]

Jumps
- Depth Jumps 18" x2-4

* BW getting close to 194lbs in the morning. felt strong but the lifts were harder than usual. i had to start with 135lb today because im stiff. 4 day rest from heavy lifting is very good for recovery but it takes effort to get my legs ready again.
* almost got pinned with rep 4 of 325 paused warmup. lol 365x2 paused was not as bad.
* 405x1 a 8.5-9/10 lift. this is a good sign. the workout following a hard delaod is usually a PR. i did not push for a 405x1 workset because legs were just not firing right today. i would have gotten pinned at 405x3 and 405x2 would be hard.
* today should be a good warmup for tuesdays 405x4 4x4-6sets. 

lol how u almost get pinned with 325?

adarq, thats possible... i got pinned with 135lb yesterday lol

impossible......... stop trolling, LOL.

Did nothing this weekend except some walking, rolling and stretching. And secksing. Hip feels fine and ready to try more squatting but I got up this morning and my god damn motherfucking right ankle hurt. Has been off and on all day, when I twist on it or step on it in certain ways. Nothing too serious but what the fuck? I can't think of anything that would cause it to spontaneously start hurting again. Plus the pain is behind the ankle bone, on the outside, rather than in front of the bone (where the sprains were focused). I repeat: What. The. Fuck.

Gonna go work out today, try to get some footage of squats and jumps and insh'allah not fuck myself up any worse. Gah.

the ankle will be fine, insh'allah.

maybe it's just the cold weather? ur gettin` old tho, like me, shit like that just kicks in mang.. remember, pain is just weakness leaving the body! or some lame quote like that.

lolol

secksing ftw.

Soreness : none

REA SQUATS:
4x3@143
- Great , smoothest , fastest and most powerful REA squats ive ever done.

4x1 : 209 - 209 - 209 - 209
4x1 : 253 - 253 - 253 - 253
-209 looked more like jump-squats , should have used 220 or 231.
-253 great explosion.

MSEM HALF SQUATS ( rest between reps ~1 min , rest between sets ~4mins ):
3x1 : 297 - 297 - 297
3x1 : 319 - 319 - 319 ,  :personal-record:

you can't get knocked down twice and expect to win bro.

actually, yes you can.. that's two 10-8 rounds, hopkins won pretty much every round besides those two.


I'm agreeing with you, that's the excuse of the homer's that said he tied...hopkins was last knocked down 1995, and he was last knocked down 1994..That's pretty good, especially since he is so old
Pascal wants a rematch, he wanted to win outright...that would be great!

he'd kill pascal in a rematch, pascal is completely shook.

much props to bernard, what a beast at 45, looked 20's in that fight.


there could be a rematch, one final rematch to end the career of hopkins maybe...He has got to give it up soon though 46 is SOOOO old in boxing, got to be feeling some affects

his brain is healthy, he doesn't take damage, he's a defensive genius.. I honestly think hopkins will retire soon with the ability to keep fighting for many more years, honestly, he's a specimen, I am so impressed.. I hope to be dunking 40"+ at his age, loool.

I think he will destroy pascal in the rematch, there's really no way pascal will recover from that kind of mindfucking he experienced.. He got completely dominated, and his conditioning will never be good enough to keep him in the fight from rounds 7+. Hopkins got him on lock.

landed lots of dunks, didn't get up like i thought though.. some really nice makes in there, peak jump was lower, but average height was pretty damn good.. avg height + coordination... gravel court, had to clean it with a towel, was slippery with little pebbles, towel helped bigtime.

if that net is 18" then that rim could be a bit high, dno though.. gonna just consider it 10' tho.



anyway here's some stills

it's pretty much the same spot, the 2nd pic and my pic, right before the concentric.. dno, it's obvious that his knees aren't way in front of his toes like mine, and he's in much more of a side plant.

im tired of people claiming numbers with no proof to promote programs, shit bugs me, amped me up good though.. thanks scammers!

Nice. I've had that before.

Rage is pretty useful if you apply it in the right place. Next thing you know I'm gonna be going "HULK SMASH" right through hurdles when I'm having a bad day. haha. That would be hilarious.

hhahaha

hulk smash.. lol

like that asian dude in the vid..

man that crap still cracks me up.
