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

- warm up
RL bound x 5 best set was 13y, which is a PR. LL bound x 5 best set was just over 12y, also a PR.

- sprint 60m x 4; 100m x 2
60s were all PR-level, ~8.0-8.1 (one at 7.97! which counts as 8.0 but seeing the seconds digit at 7 is good). 100s were...not so much, 13.2 and 13.4. wanted to do more but lightheaded and heavy legs after second 100 and 7 mins rest. lame. bagged it.

- stretch

the 60s may even have been a little long, like ~61. they felt fast, core locked in and stepping over rather than letting my legs kick out behind. the 100s were much looser and messier feeling, not to mention slower.

got my wisdom teeth out (all four) 7 or 8 years ago. they were all impacted, i.e., growing in at right angles to the rest of my teeth.

Same as me, but I only have grow right angle to the other tooth but the other tooth has grown diagonal.

How did it go, does it affect you now, that is removed or is it unnoticeable?

completely unnoticeable, no long-term effect (or even short-term, after the wounds healed in a few weeks).

Thanks guys! I finally got some decent stuff on video.

LBSS, we've covered it before but I hate my knees fpr some stupid reason lol! I pretty much only wear Jordan brand stuff and all his shorts have a long inseam. :/ I guess 5'10 guys arent supposed to hoop bahahahaa! I have 2 pair with a 10" inseam that fall right at mid knee but the 12" ones are long. Ive just gotten used to it over the years I guess.

oh right, my bad, we have covered this before. i forgot you were a 13-year-old.  :P

WEIGHT: 172.5
SORENESS: quads a little, hamstrings a little
ACHES/INJURIES: left shoulder, toes
MENTAL STATE: okay, a little stressed

- warm up

- jumps x 45-50 minutes
only okay but best in a while. rattled the mini ball in once and dunked the small dodgeball, but mostly rimmed out. 34" range.

- stretch

got to the gym late because of work. bball court unexpectedly open, so i just jumped.

I was wondering what your weight was, but it's "???" hehe

between 173 and 176. i don't fluctuate much outside of that.

0.5m is a big PR, nice job!

vacation ain't a waste, cuz. vacation is essential. you don't have to go to the beach, but it's important to take time off. even subsistence farmers take time off.

WEIGHT: ???
SORENESS: none
ACHES/INJURIES: left shoulder a tiny bit, right hamstring alerting me but not worrisome
MENTAL STATE: good

- warm up
easy 12.5 yards on the first RL bound x 5. easy 12y on the first LL bound x 5. nice.

- sprint 30m x 5
alternating forward foot on start

- accel 30m + sprint 30m x 3
started on the curve, focusing on stepping over, then carrying that into an all-out second 30. right knee bothersome on the first and second sets but not the third.

- superset x 3
-- hand-to-elbow walk x 10
-- glute kickback x 10

- stretch

first day back, kept it pretty light. felt good.

couple of notes:

1. don't think you hit parallel. pretty dang close, though.
2. your stance is wide, and your feet collapse in a bit -- look at your right foot when you're near the bottom, the ankle is rolled in and your foot looks almost flat. your glutes should be engaged enough to keep your feet square and stable on the ground. get squatting shoes, or stick your heels a bit closer together on top of 5lb plates and see what changes. this goes without saying but use light weight when you're messing with stance. as it is the bar is up high on your traps, you're setting your feet for a power-lifting-type squat (i.e., low bar), and you're not allowing your hips to be active enough to keep you stable and push you up and through.
3. great mental fortitude to make the lift.

Yeah but if I hear you say the sound, I can/should be able to do it.

I mean, if you say Porsche, or if you say "shhhhhhhh" as in to "make silence", it's not that hard to do, right? I just ... don't get it.

maybe, with lots of practice. if sounds in other languages were easy to say, no one would speak languages other than their native ones with an accent. i bet you $10 you don't speak english without a detectable nonnative speaker accent.

presumably because the sound doesn't exist in greek? many, many nonnative english speakers can't say "th" and substitute "t" "d" or "z" instead.
