Yeah you'll get some sweet ones man. Definitely have the pop. That one in the pic above must have been a make though right? Maybe soft but still a make?

hope so! should be good though, i always jump my best at night.. and if im tired during the day prior i can just take a nap :D

nope, it rimmed out.. basically went inside the damn hoop then flew out.. about 4 like that then the other 2 or so were way off.. i was actually surprised none of them went in, they all felt good.

peace man

Progress Journals & Experimental Routines / Re: THE DREAM JOURNAL
« on: September 16, 2010, 05:01:56 am »
From earlier this week.

The details of the first half of the dream are vague, but I know that in general I was with a group where people kept dying or suffering weird puncture-type wounds (including me). Very much a horror-movie feel, like, "Who's the killer?" So we were trying to figure it out and we ended up in this creepy old house owned, apparently, by the receptionist in my office. She's a fat middle-aged lady, perfectly nice as far as I can tell although I don't interact with her much. We had some theory about why the source of the evil would be in this house so she let us in so we could look around. We were snooping and opening and doors and whatnot and then someone opened a door to the basement and thousands of bats started flying out and swarming around. "Aha!" we thought. "That makes sense...bats!" And then a little creature that looked like an ewok but which in the dream was clearly called a hobbit walked out and started coming toward us. It seemed about ewok-sized as it came out the door but as it moved toward us it got smaller and smaller until finally it was about 4 or 5 inches tall.

We were satisfied with the bat answer but then we turned around and the receptionist-lady (Sharon) was standing there, kind of looming, and started to make some speech about how foolish we were and her powers and her teeth got real long and sharp and she turned bright red and she was smiling very creepily.

Then I woke up.

Then later, as I was remembering the dream, I began to realize that there were all kinds of very cinematic touches here and there foreshadowing the fact that Sharon was the evil thing. For example, there was a "shot" while we were snooping around in which she could be seen in the kitchen in the background, kind of out of focus, putting live frogs into a pot and kind of smiling.

pretty cool, you recalled & restated that dream very well.. you should follow her after work (IRL) and see what she's upto, could have been a telekenetic dream.

i havn't been "trying" to remember my dreams lately, which is kind of odd.. it's kind of interesting though, i have this hunch that when i do interval walks with short sprints mixed in, that's when i have really insane dreams.. i really havn't been doing any interval sprints lately during my walks, and i can't even recall any of my recent dreams, nothing "crazy" comes to mind.. when im interval sprinting during my walks, it's almost like i'm being chased/chasing something.

what yall think? I mean I think it looks like a pretty legit before & after video

http://www.canhedunk.com/Global/Episodes/Default.aspx

good stuff imo.. 10 weeks, a few inch gains on pretty much everyone, i think one guy looked to have gained around 4 or so i forget.. anyway, no INSANE gains, which is truthful.

next step, "canheBTL.com", take those kids to BTL level, now i'd love to see that.. looool.

peace

vid/pics from today's dunk session above ^^


9/15/2010

bw = 156
soreness = calfs
aches/injuries = calf origin tendons, hamstring insertion tendons, right lower back, upper mid back

other: 7 hours sleep, which might seem ok for some people but that shit does keep me from being 100%, with coffe+milk & a monster energy before going to dunk, my eyes were 'falling asleep' on the drive up to the court.. sucks.. sunday night though i should be good, dunking at night soo... gonna land some nasty shit sunday night.

^^ eyes were tired/closing from about 8pm onward, alot prior to workout #2.. gonna get like 11 hours sleep tonight :d



workout #1: dunks
- got up pretty good.. check vid abuv
- missed a bunch of two handers off lob AFTER dropoff, but they were close.. so fresh on sunday i should nail some ez.
- right wrist is pretty sore with some bruising about 2" below base of palm, slammed it into the rim a bunch


workout #2: strength/conditioning
01 jump rope: 200 turns FAST + 45 lb slightly below parallel squat x 5
02 jump rope: 200 turns FAST + 45 lb slightly below parallel  squat x 5
03 jump rope: 200 turns FAST + 45 lb slightly below parallel  squat x 5
04 jump rope: 200 turns FAST + 135 lb slightly below parallel  squat x 2
05 jump rope: 200 turns FAST + 135 lb slightly below parallel  squat x 2
06 jump rope: 200 turns FAST + 185 lb slightly below parallel  squat x 2 singles
- work sets:
07 jump rope: 200 turns FAST + 225 lb slightly below parallel  squat x 2 singles
08 jump rope: 200 turns FAST + 225 lb slightly below parallel  squat x 2 singles
09 jump rope: 200 turns FAST + 225 lb slightly below parallel  squat x 2 singles
10 jump rope: 200 turns FAST + 225 lb slightly below parallel  squat x 2 singles
11 jump rope: 200 turns FAST + 225 lb slightly below parallel  squat x 2 singles
12 jump rope: 200 turns FAST + 225 lb slightly below parallel  squat x 2 singles
13 jump rope: 200 turns FAST + 225 lb slightly below parallel  squat x 1 singles
- done squatting
- bar dips x 10
- barbell calf raise: 135 @ 5 x 10, 95 @ 3 x 20 (toes in)
- chinups x 12

squat felt so strong, unracking it felt light as a feather



peace!

15 September 2010

Basketball training

Aches/injuries/soreness : none

Not good. Was too damn hot and humid , lost the "pop" of last Wednesday. I dont know if i should blame the heat or Monday's max sprints. Bball endurance was good though.
Didn't do any max jumps, was so exhausted and dehydrated ( in a bad way ) that it was pointless.

I feel you, when I realized I had to dunk in the dead heat today I said F that, and went to that enclosed outdoor gym with less sleep.. i was damn near falling asleep on the way to that court even after coffee+milk + monster energy, but i'd rather dunk under those conditions than in 95 F humid sun, woulda been horrible.

  The funny thing about that to me is that it was a shock to people when they realized how wack those claims were.  You should probably de bunk the tooth fairy and santa claus next.

ya exactly.. i don't understand how anyone could buy into those claims, man that's some weird shit..
