morning

- GMB wrists

evening

- tennis x 45 mins
GMB called for an active recovery day. shook off a great deal of a rust, great deal more to shake off. but got up a bit of a sweat and it's a beautiful evening. was down 3-4 to my buddy before he had to scoot.

also, he's only playing 34-35 minutes per game. it's like steph last year where his numbers were silly but he was often only playing three quarters.

not gonna log full workouts because no fair giving away a sold program for free.

- GMB F1 W1 D1
per the recommendation, did not push myself too hard. still broke a sweat. learning new movements is tough! and fun. never been able to do a cartwheel and after today there is no doubt in my mind that i'll be able to do a decent one in either direction pretty quickly (barring injury touch wood).

tired.

a suggestion, not a new one: stop thinking about your bodyweight at all. no more targets. focus on being the basketball player you want to be, and eating nutritious food, and let the rest flow from that.

- yoga + HIIT x 75 mins
knees bugging a tiny bit at the end but only for a few minutes during shivasana.

- GMB Focused Flexibility Basic Assessment Positions
squat                            6
crosslegged sitting            3
longsitting                            5
supine hip/knee flexion        7
crossleg hip rotation            6
shoulder combined motions    1
prone backbending            8
neck motions                    7

sorry about the formatting. looks like i'll be working on crosslegged sitting and shoulder combined motions. the latter are brutal.

edging toward buying GMB Floor 1, or possibly Floor 1 + Floor 2 + Focused Flexibility, and really sinking my teeth into gymnastics/bw. Can do a lot of work in relatively small spaces (other than tumbling, obviously) and with little or no equipment, is different, seems fun, and the GMB programs look pretty legit in terms of fundamentals, progressions, instruction, etc.

could do friend yoga 1x/week, Focused Flexibility in the mornings before breakfast if i keep going to bed early enough, F1 three days per week (monday-thursday-weekend day), and still be able to play tennis once a week if i want to, or even get lessons going.

actually on paper that looks super ambitious, but hell even if F1 is only two days a week i'll still progress -- newbie gainzzzz -- and i'm not in a rush to do anything. if i get super into it i can always up the focus on it.

EDIT

bought F1, F2, and FF bundle. will begin with FF assessment after yoga tonight.

Facepull

Also, yeah, I know there's no direct pulling work on this day
