god we need a thread on how people play 21 in every state /country.. hah

Maryland: they're called "taps" and it's up 3 down 3. That down to 0 shit is so annoying, makes the game take forever. And there's definitely no D except 1-on-1. Playing help D in 21 is a great way to avoid getting rebounds and therefore to lose.

^^^ Epic freeze frame for the title screen. What the hell are his feet DOING up there?

EDIT: Also, I'm 99% sure I've seen video of Troy Polamalu doing shit like that. Goes to show that you can train like a complete idiot and still be dominant at your sport.

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK

Wednesday = Anniversary with GF = no workout
Yesterday = Thanksgiving = no workout
Today, went a did this sick ropes course with my family, supposedly the biggest and most badass in the US, only one of its kind here. It was really fun. Then I went to the gym and tied (maybe beat) an absolute PR in DLRVJ and did it 3 or 4 times, to boot. CNS was blazing. My phone display was broken earlier today but I got home, plugged it in just now and it started working again, I started shouting in celebration, heard a door slam elsewhere in the apartment, walked into the living room, saw a pair of wine glasses and heard some soft music on and saw my roommate's door closed and laughed at myself for crushing the mood.
 

warm up
shoot around -- inconsistent as hell
various stretches

work
sprint x4x15y
1-step x4 -- terrible, 29.5 at best
sprint x1x15y
1-step x4 -- better, 29.5-30
sprint x1x15y
full run-up x4 -- meh
sprint x1x15y
full run-up x4 -- YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES 31.5 YES YES YES YES YES YES

From then on just a bunch more full run-ups, maybe 10 or 12, hitting 31.5 at least twice more and 30.5 several other times. Was super inconsistent, though, CNS was so fired up that at least 4 of the jumps were a complete waste as I got way out of control on the run up and just blew the plant. Got 30 on a couple of those and barely went vertical at all on a couple of others (lol). The whole time I was shaking my head and saying, "It's short, it's so fucking short," to myself over and over.

MR half tucks 3x15
pogos 4x5 -- felt better than any other pogos I've done

I'm starving now. Time for food.

Just to prove to everyone that I'm not so rabidly hateful of TNation that I'm blind to its occasionally worthwhile articles, here is an older one on using eccentric-only training to heal tendinitis. Backed up elsewhere by various people who aren't full of shit and and aren't trying to sell stuff.

For Tam, if you read this, because I'm not allowed to post in the Q&A section: There's a reason they call him Loliquin. That article didn't make any sense. Looooot of broscience and voodoo comes out of that guy these days.

run

nice, why did you decide to run? 4.45 is alot to run just out of nowhere.

pc

Because I'm still very out of shape and therefore should be getting more light cardio, because I told myself I was going to yesterday and didn't want to back out like a bitch, because I like to run. 4.45 isn't that much more than I ran the last time out, and that felt great.

Mostly the bolded part, though, tbh.
