today i woke up at 3:30, then spent 9 hours in a car. now it's 8:40 PM and all i've eaten are a bowl and a half of mueslix, some lemon-flavored cookies and soda. i'm not even hungry. it's so fucking hot. i'm tired as hell.

no workout today.

night before last (first night in kabul) i dreamed that i was hanging out with my family, possibly at the beach where we always go, and my youngest brother abruptly told everyone that he was bisexual. don't remember how it came up but i think he actually said, "i'm 50/50, guys." i don't think he's bi in real life, fwiw.

this morning

BW = ???
SORENESS = none
ACHES/INJURIES = none
FATIGUE = no idea, jet lag is weird

- warm up
jumping jacks 30/30 x 5
joint circles, leg swings

- C1: bw squat x 20
- C1: push up x 5
- C1 info: 20 rounds, starting on the minute, work/rest ended up being about 25s/35s

- stretch
legs twice through

pretty easy, just good to get the blood flowing. missed game six even though i was awake at the right time because ESPN was showing fucking BMX trick riding. what the hell.

heading to afghanistan and pakistan today. back in three weeks. knock on some wood for me. will keep updating log as possible and will be working out as much as possible. probably little to no strength work so i'll focus on low-level plyos and conditioning.

peace.

nice, does that mean your approach is getting better? gotta post another vid.

Nah, LeBron just isn't a creative dunker (see Cannon Brown in the dunk contest). So it works only if you like power dunks/very high dunks (I like them by the way).

yeah but if he'd put even a little thought and practice in he could have done anything except javale mcgee's awesome two-basket dunk. you can't practice height, and even more important you can't practice an 18-foot wingspan.
