Progress Journals & Experimental Routines / Re: THE DREAM JOURNAL
« on: March 06, 2011, 06:44:12 am »
I had a series of weird dreams last night:

1) I was at home and it was raining from the "side" (you could see the raindrops go at a 45 degree angle) and there was also bright sun out on one side and a dark storm cloud on another side, and then three or four tornadoes came and were destroying pretty much everything in their way, while I was looking from my apartment window... that was really scary

2) Then I was in Geneva (Swiss) with Nightfly and we were going to catch a subway train, and there were long stairs down all the way to the subway station, so I just dropped from the top all the way to the bottom, and it actually "hurt" me, like I felt pain. So I was like "damn, I never felt pain while doing this in dreams". So I was both aware that I'm dreaming and also that I had similar dreams before and the drops never hurted.

3) Then while in Geneva, this time with a neighbor of mine, Sergiu, we were buying some stuff from a store, and everybody was suspicious since we were from Romania, they thought we were going to steal stuff.  Then I payed 10 euros for my stuff (it was 9.67 or so), gave them to the sales guy, and then he starts reading something in magyar (hungarian). And he was really struggling to look like he has any idea about what he's reading...

And I'm like "um... could you please read it in English?" and he said that he thanks us for buying stuff from his store and gives me 8 euros back. Apparently, that's what happens in civilized countries, I told to myself.

Then I went around the store and found pink ice-cream with chocolate "throw-ins" and all kinds of stuff, then went on through Geneva to walk and that was the dream...

ADARQ & LanceSTS - Q&A / Re: Ball handling

I think Alex Maroko has a product out about ball handling. I'd check that out.

I know you have beef with Maroko and this is probably some sarcastic joke, but I highly recommend that program.
It really does help A LOT with your ball handling

He can't be the king of quickness for no objective reason can't he?

Yeah I always use that.

Yeah, they're all the same. Who cares about a few displaced letters.

Pics, Videos, & Links / Re: Wide bar grip on squats
« on: March 03, 2011, 07:17:57 pm »
Well it's weird because reading everywhere - everybody recommended a wider stance on the bar if you have shoulder/pec/whatever flexibility issues using the low bar. So I tried it and it was worse. My elbows hurted much more and wrists much more, so I switched to an even narrower grip than usual. That worked wonders.

Don't know what's up with that. I think the traps just contracted better and there was less "arm load" or support of the bar.

Yeah I think maybe I should "depth drop" a bit forward. When I jump straight up I usually end up bending a lot at the knee and loading the quads a lot and very little hip. If I'd have just a SMALL displacement forward at the first jump then maybe I'd load more hip and jump higher, while also straining my knees less.
