12:15 AM and I'm still awake because of the stupid bodybuilding.com girls pics threads.

I am a fucking idiot. Good night.

6:34 am and i'm still awake because of the IRC's.

:/

Yeah but you don't have to wake up at 7:30 for work.  :(

Also, I'd never tried to use the hangtime calculator before but I see what people mean when they say it's a rough guess at best. If my best jump the other day was 23 frames, it was ~28.59". If it was 24 frames, ~30.87". Not sure which, but based on where my finger got to I'm going to go with 30.5".

Have you considered adding some steady-state cardio or extensive intervals? Improved aerobic fitness = quicker recovery between bouts of exercise, among other positive adaptations.

shock? care to elaborate?

shock = true "plyometrics." get up on something high, step off of it. either rebound (depth jump) or just stick the landing (depth drop).

Not sure how it happened. Probably a combination of things. I don't think it means other joints are at risk, because the main problem seems to be that A) the joints are the wrong shape and B) the cartilage has worn away and so the toe bone is too close to the foot bone. The rest of the toes are fine.

Hypertrophy? What are you talking about? That's BAD! You only need strength. Or so they say... :ninja:

Didn't Kelly write an article called "The Myth of Relative Strength" or something like that? Bigger = stronger.

Also, I got a bunch more x-rays   :D

Update on toes after orthopedic surgeon visit this morning:

Both big toes are arthritic, although the left is more pronounced. The joints are malformed and cartilege has worn away, although it's not completely gone. But my stride is pretty normal-looking, even barefoot. Eventually, I'll need surgery, with the preference being for joint replacement ( :o ) over fusing the bones together. But the doctor said that because the state of replacements for toes is not as advanced as those for knees or hips (which each have about a 95% success rate), it'd be best to wait a while to see if procedures improve over the next 10-15 years. In the meantime, he told me to take Aleve for 10 days or so (3-4 times the max amount on the bottle, confirming my suspicion that dose recommendations on OTC painkillers are a complete joke) and see if that improves the inflammation or pain any. He also told me to get some more arch support, to prevent overpronation (okay, will think about it, although I'm worried about my feet getting even weaker than they already are), and to get a shoe with a rocker bottom (over my dead body).

Glass half-empty: I will need surgery and in the meantime am stuck with overly stiff, occasionally painful big toes.
Glass half-full: I can hold off on the surgery for a while and can continue to go about my business until then without worrying that this will get any worse.
