when do you put on wrist wraps? like at what weight? curious because i just started benching again and my wrists are taking some time to adjust, even at the light weights i've been using. never used wraps before, although i never got that strong, something like 225 for sets of 5.

some of the discomfort is just relearning the grip, i know.

WEIGHT: ???
SORENESS: none
ACHES/INJURIES: none
MENTAL STATE: good

- warm up

- squat MSEM 275 x 1; 295 x 1; 305 x 1,1,1,1,1
very solid. kept sweatpants and sweatshirt on. forgot how much i like squatting in sweatpants. also stayed very warm.

- jump rope x 250,350,(15),(15),(15),(15)
1-2 mins rest, only made one mistake on the first set, everything else clean. will go for at least one 500 next time. it's just mental to get there.

DIET
breakfast: smoothie, cup of coffee
lunch: turkey sandwich, milkshake (roll tide)
dinner: rest of mush, protein shake
other: cup of coffee, milk, baby carrots

SLEEP
7.5 hours, much better

i dreamt that as i was winding my watch, the knob kept coming out farther and farther, and the back of the watch started to come apart. not fall apart, but kind of expand and rearrange itself like a little transformer. then i couldn't figure out how to push it all back together.

getting drunk to deal with frustration is kind of worrisome, dude.

Hey Andrew,

I have a question if you don't mind  ;D

How would you go about fixing bad dorsi -> plantar flexion in single leg bounding? 

Basically, I tend to just land on my forefoot/toes instead of keeping dorsi flexion mid air as I cycle the leg and doing a proper heel to toe roll.

Is it just a matter of practicing it + dorsi flexion strengthening exercises?

not andrew, and not an expert, but my n=1 is that the way to fix the footstrike in SL bounding is just to reach farther in front. if your lead foot is far enough ahead, you have to land on your heel. that plus building up intensity over time.
