BW = 173
SORENESS = none
ACHES/INJURIES = none
FATIGUE = low

- warm up

- MR half tuck 2 x 20
second set higher-effort

- squat 2 x 2 x 300

- hanging leg raise 3 x 10

- stretch

worked out before work this morning because i didn't have to start until 10, and i have an obligation tonight that i'd forgotten about. as such, kept things short and sweet. squats were very fast, bar popped easily off my shoulders at the top of each rep. will do some jumping and my upper-body stuff tomorrow, then back to normal schedule on thursday.

BW = ???
SORENESS = none
ACHES/INJURIES = none
FATIGUE = low to moderate on saturday, very high on sunday

went out to a cabin  on the shenandoah with a big group of friends for my roommate's birthday. drugs were taken and/or smoked, large quantities of alcohol were drunk, excellent food was cooked and eaten. the weather was absolutely perfect and the location was unreal -- we had 15 acres of riverfront property to ourselves. and i was never more than mildly hungover thanks to massive water consumption.

 :highfive: :highfive: :highfive: :highfive: :highfive: :highfive:

friday:

- BSS 3 x 8
using lunges to stretch thighs

saturday:

- touch football x 60-75 minutes
made best two defensive plays of my touch football career. clutch.

- BSS 1 x 8

sunday:

- tennis x 45 minutes

- BSS 1 x 8

today is more rest, per smolov, then back in the gym tomorrow.

also, listen to this song: http://www.lowerfrequencies.com/2012/04/jai-paul-jasmin/.

BW = ???
SORENESS = upper hamstrings, quads, VMO, glutes, lower back a little
ACHES/INJURIES = none really, normal little things but not bad
FATIGUE = moderate

- warm up
soreness pretty bad, took a longer warm up than usual and included more static stretches

- line hop 3 x 20
all between 9 and 10 seconds

- squat 3 x 8 x 245 || 5 x 265 || 2 x 2 x 280 || 1 x 315
easier than yesterday by a lot. 315 a bit grindy, though. weak.

- bench 2 x 3 x 175 || 8 x 175
weak

- pull up 2 x 3 +5 || 1 x 11 +5

- stretch

If you took something away from the article that's great, but I find it scary that someone with nothing more to his credit than middling results (from the videos he's posted I'm not buying his vert as being anywhere near high 30s) is writing articles on the subject.  Adarq's trained athletes and if I'm not mistaken has a degree in a related field.  It does help that his vert actually looks pretty good in videos but I would listen to a fat guy that could only jump 10 inches if he had good credentials.

true, but the second part -- the experience training others and the credentials -- is what matters, and your first post made it sound like you were more concerned with the first part. JC and i argued about this a while ago w/r/t lyle mcdonald. JC kept saying, "but who has he trained," and i kept saying, "i don't give a shit, what he writes is clear and logical and backed up by research and experience, whether his own or that of people he knows." and JC kept saying, "so basically, you're taking his word for it because it sounds right," and my head exploded.

all i took away from raptor's article was, "oh yeah, i have muscles between my knees and my ankles. maybe i should do something about them."

THAT WASN'T A FUCKING INSULT.

chrisbro, though, man, really? adarq never got better than high 30's but we're all on his forum. we all listened to him like he was jesus christ when he was still active with people's training. and no one would have listened to taylor horton if he'd been the type to offer lots of advice, even though his vert is one of the highest on the forum.

personally i kind of liked the article. hypotheticals are silly and unproductive, in part because they lead to stupid bickering like the above or like in that other thread with ... T0dday maybe? and you? and JC? i can't remember. i got sidetracked. point is i don't think about my calves very often and it made me do that.

Yeah, why? You don't think I'm capable or what?
