bret contreras imagines that he can get valid readings about muscle activation from applying electrodes to people's butts more or less at random. that's not to say any individual thing he writes is wrong, but he's a hacky internet guru like so many others. take what he writes with a grain of salt.

went skydiving today. A++++ so fun, worth every cent. my third jump. got home too late to do a real workout so i ran for 20 minutes, did some KB swings and x-band walks, and stretched. also spent about 30 minutes doing SMR and stretching this morning while i waited for my friend to pick me up.

that video is scary man. don't use a weight if you can't handle it safely. and yeah, the chair is too close.

WEIGHT: ???
SORENESS: lower traps a little
ACHES/INJURIES: head
MENTAL STATE: frustrated

- warm up

- DLRVJ x a couple
crap SVJ, barely 30, then good off one step (33), meh off two (~33.5), crap off three (33-34) and i stuck at three for most of the time. did a couple of full run-ups but they suuuuucked. my head hurt.

- DB jump squat 35s x 3,3,3

- ME pogo x 8,8,8

- stretch

just so bad. my problem is this: i have no progressive overloading in my program right now. i'm literally not progressing on anything. i'm just doing a bunch of stuff and trying to do it "explosively" every time. that is a recipe for wheel-spinning, and sure enough i'm back spinning my wheels or even regressing. i need a damn coach, someone to just force me to into a path with a clear progression. where is lance.

last night did a 30-minute feldenkrais session. something about linking pelvis and neck. not the greatest. gonna keep trying 'em out though.

tonight:

WEIGHT: ???
SORENESS: none
ACHES/INJURIES: left hamstring a little, near my butt
MENTAL STATE: okay

- warm up

- MB OH throw 20 x 5,5,5

- bunch of crap, legs dead, missing layups all over the place, hamstring felt weird, decided it wasn't worth trying ME jumps. today was supposed to be conditioning and i got a little of that but weak.

- superset x 5
-- dips x 10
-- inverted row x 10

- stretch

another crappy workout. yay.

he's so close to what i think would be the coolest dunk ever: gracefully passing the ball through until you're hanging elbow-in-rim, but holding on to the ball all the way.

are you doing negatives (i.e. close with both hands, release off hand and resist opening as much as possible) or anything else with the CoC?

I concur and I believe I may be the other guy unless LBSS knows someone else who was stupid enough to ignore his advice too ;D

i'll never tell  ;)

also, an advance warning: if you do end up getting shoes, BACK OFF THE WEIGHT FOR A COUPLE OF WEEKS AND BUILD UP SLOWLY. even if you don't feel it acutely, the shoes change the movement and your body needs time to adjust. i fucked up my hip when i switched years ago because i got so excited about the increased stability*, and i know at least one other guy who did the same thing (after i gave him this same warning and he didn't listen, lol).

*in fairness, i'm super prone to nagging injuries and always have been.
