Read his dispute over prosthetics in wikipedia. It's all well cited, at least from the bits I've read. CAS actually repealed IAAF's ban on him because they didn't present enough evidence to show he had an unfair advantage, especially when weighed against his disadvantages like his slower starts. (In the video you can see he's still behind everyone at around the 150m mark.

doesn't matter. he's NOT RUNNING. what he's doing is a different thing. the fact that his disadvantage in the start might make up for his huge advantage in the upright portion of the race doesn't deny the fact that the blades give him a huge advantage while moving forward at high speed.

plus it's only a matter of time before they come up with blades that eliminate the problems with the start. what, are they gonna calibrate the technology so it meets some random standard for correlation with human speed?

if you are a hard gainer, eat more. being a hard gainer almost always means your body just doesn't want to eat enough to gain wait. suck it up and force yourself to eat a little more and, lo and behold, you will gain weight.

lol

Alkaline Diet is legit, but the others, lol.

Does that involve eating batteries?

haha i lol'd in real life at this. fuck whoever negged the post.

quick side note: my youngest brother is in the hospital again. checked himself in on monday after an apparent heroin and cocaine bender (he likes to freebase) that started on friday. he didn't OD but i assume felt like shit as he was coming down, so he rode the bus to the hospital and got himself into a bed. not the first time this has happened, he's been addicted to drugs for years and he's seriously mentally ill, so normally this would be nothing new and i wouldn't post about it.

but my parents are at the end of their ropes: they had NEVER asked me to do anything until yesterday, when my dad asked me to do them a favor through a connection i have. that, more than anything else, is freaking me out right now. i went to talk to my boss about it, basically to say that i'm gonna take a bit longer lunch break than usual so i can do this favor -- not important what it is -- and i realized i'd been trembling a bit. still am.

i love my brother and have been worried about him dying suddenly for many years but that worry doesn't often surface. i'm exuberant but very emotionally controlled and independent, so when that quality breaks even a little bit it's very distracting. i'll go to the gym tonight and put in as much work as i can but it might not be my best work.

not fishing for pity or sympathy, just noting it down because it's having a pretty big impact on my ability to focus.

The girl in the pink dress, with the amazing body and face, is that your wife and-or girlfriend?

i demand link to pic

no gym yesterday because my friend had box seats at the legg mason tennis tournament and i've been wanting to go for YEARS. it was great, got to see james blake smoke the shit out of david nalbandian from like 15 feet away!

BW = ???
SORENESS = none
ACHES/INJURIES = feet still a bit swollen/achey, knees scabbing over but still painful
FATIGUE = low to moderate

- warm up

- stiff leg ankle hop 2 x 30

- squat 2 x 5
225,225

- chin up x 7

- dip x 7

- stretch

used this workout mainly to do some serious SMR, get the blood flowing a little, re-grease the squatting groove, and stretch a lot. today i'll try to see if i can pretend like the last week never happened and do 5 x 7 x 260. should suck but hopefully i won't fail. gonna eat a bit extra throughout the day to make sure i'm fueled up.
