peace man
mannn I'm waiting for the day when we'll be able to put in a pre-determined amount of effort and be certain that we'll get to whatever goal we have in the pre-set amount of time...

tuck jumps 4x20 -- harder than I expected
Whats up, Im 160lb at 5'11. My goals are to get stronger and jump higher than adarq. Current running vertical is 31 inches and hopefully by the end of December I will have increased my vertical and strength to decent numbers. With everyones help I will achieve this no problem. This is my road to glory starting today! Tried air alert and other similar programs for weeks and it was not for me. It's time for change.

Just post yours for now. Still don't have a response from LBSS and LanceSTS. I'll send you those when I get the permission.
Nope. Just part of an assignment for English 1010. Answer if you like, but I already have any info I'd like.
Update on toes after orthopedic surgeon visit this morning:
Both big toes are arthritic, although the left is more pronounced. The joints are malformed and cartilege has worn away, although it's not completely gone. But my stride is pretty normal-looking, even barefoot. Eventually, I'll need surgery, with the preference being for joint replacement (
Glass half-empty: I will need surgery and in the meantime am stuck with overly stiff, occasionally painful big toes.
Glass half-full: I can hold off on the surgery for a while and can continue to go about my business until then without worrying that this will get any worse.
BROSCIENCE TO THE RESCUE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Bball game.
Endurance = bad , i get tired after ~5 mins and i can't breath and request sub at ~8 mins
Vert = good , did only 1 jump in very fatigued state at half time and got 8'' above , but the rim was slightly bent so it's 32,5'' and not 33''. Nevertheless , touching wrist at legit indoor court rim feels damn good!
"I've posted elsewhere on this forum the results of my tried consensus way (higher carb, moderate to low fat) for gaining muscle. To gain an appreciable amount of muscle, I had to gain fat. Then I had to spend time taking off the fat while hoping to retain the muscle I put on. This method lies somewhere between "ok" and "madness," in my opinion. I suspect there's a superior alternative."
I've eaten less than maintenance, and gained muscle - while losing fat. Thought that qualified for repeating.
Over the past few weeks, I've made it my daily goal to consume 8 whole eggs and 3oz of dark chocolate. I hit that goal about 5 days a week. I've had my suspicions about the ultra fast digesting whey proteins in the past (they're absorbed too fast; the body doesn't know what to do so it converts the proteins to sugar. Proteins don't do much good serving as sugar), and am forgoing having them now. I'm content with the slower digesting wheys and am even mixing them with even slower digesting casein containing cottage cheese post workout and...better sit down...even mixing in some fat. My post workout meal is more reminiscent of mother's milk (the stuff we were meant to grow on). Over the course of these past four weeks, I've been eating lower carbs in an effort to lose fat; muscle gain wasn't my current concern. I've added in the extra eggs, extra dark chocolate, and the change to the post workout meal (which is sometimes a breakfast, lunch, or pre workout meal, too). I've eaten less than maintenance, and gained muscle - while losing fat. I've never been more vascular.
