BW = 172
SORENESS = a little in legs but barely noticeable
ACHES/INJURIES = none
FATIGUE = low
- warm up
included hip dips.
- tried a few jumps, had a couple of good DSVJ but on second or third DLRVJ i slipped. tried some more but it was ugly. CNS done with that.
- bench 5,5,7 x 185
should have had 8th rep but it was very grindy and spotter gave early assistance. doesn't count.
- pull up 5,5,9 + 10
- SS1: OHP 10 x 55
- SS1: BOR 10 x 55
- SS1 info: 2 rounds
i've been meaning to do some overhead pushing and horizontal pulling. will throw a couple of light sets in at least once a week.
- L-sit x 10s,20s,20s
i'm a pussy, could have done more on all sets.
- stretch
pleased overall. if only i could say that after a jump workout...

Is he purposely placing his heels over the mat?
yes. elevating your heels also helps with depth.

« on: April 16, 2012, 09:25:24 am »time to try that turmeric root?
yes, thanks for reminding me. while i'm at it i'll pick up some rhus toxicodendron and make an appointment to get my subluxations checked out. oh, and to see what the tarot cards hold for my future. wouldn't want anything unexpected coming down the pike.

Injury, Prehab, & Rehab talk for the brittlebros / Re: posterior shin splints just does not go away
« on: April 15, 2012, 09:45:45 pm »turmeric, MSM.
go to an indian store and get turmeric root, it's less bitter than the powder. WIth powder mix some in hot water, or even simmer for a few min.
MSM has worked great for my knees but I don't think it necesarily helps with shin splits. It works well for joints because joits have a high amount of sulfates (highly anionic compounds), and the MSM suppl,ements that qute directly.
TUrmeric is a great anti-inflammatory. Ibuprofen is a piece of shit.
LOL

rest it and ice it for a couple of days. then gently try to exercise the area again. if that doesn't work and the pain persists, see a doctor.
