  Yep, people dont realize how dangerous that wide, unbalanced catch is.  One of the old strength coaches here was trying to match power clean reps with Josh McCown when he was here, they had 315 on the bar and when the strength coach caught it similar to what the kid in the video did, he tore both ACL's simultaneously. 

Holy shitballs.  :o

Question about the vertec: Do you re-measure the bottom rung every time? Looks like it's leaning a little bit so maybe not exactly the height you meant it to be?

From earlier this week.

The details of the first half of the dream are vague, but I know that in general I was with a group where people kept dying or suffering weird puncture-type wounds (including me). Very much a horror-movie feel, like, "Who's the killer?" So we were trying to figure it out and we ended up in this creepy old house owned, apparently, by the receptionist in my office. She's a fat middle-aged lady, perfectly nice as far as I can tell although I don't interact with her much. We had some theory about why the source of the evil would be in this house so she let us in so we could look around. We were snooping and opening and doors and whatnot and then someone opened a door to the basement and thousands of bats started flying out and swarming around. "Aha!" we thought. "That makes sense...bats!" And then a little creature that looked like an ewok but which in the dream was clearly called a hobbit walked out and started coming toward us. It seemed about ewok-sized as it came out the door but as it moved toward us it got smaller and smaller until finally it was about 4 or 5 inches tall.

We were satisfied with the bat answer but then we turned around and the receptionist-lady (Sharon) was standing there, kind of looming, and started to make some speech about how foolish we were and her powers and her teeth got real long and sharp and she turned bright red and she was smiling very creepily.

Then I woke up.

Then later, as I was remembering the dream, I began to realize that there were all kinds of very cinematic touches here and there foreshadowing the fact that Sharon was the evil thing. For example, there was a "shot" while we were snooping around in which she could be seen in the kitchen in the background, kind of out of focus, putting live frogs into a pot and kind of smiling.

SUICIDE GRIP ON THE BENCH PRESS DETECTED!

LEVEL-7

Yeah, that would definitely interfere with developing perfect neuromuscular programming or whatever the hell that guy's talking about. http://everyjoe.com/health/stafon-johnson-in-bench-press-accident/

I don't get why that's funny. I mean, the guy's form was awful but getting 425 to your shoulders ain't no joke...

lol, thanks for the words of wisdom, vag. Feel free to offer coaching whenever you please; I do it all the time from my amateur seat over here   ;)

With respect to the length, I was more worried that it was too short, rather than too long. But I don't think that's going to be such a big deal, now that I think about it. I can give it a go, see where it takes me, and then reevaluate.

I feel like I've seen video of Troy Polamalu doing that kind of shit. Just goes to show you that, in order to be an elite athlete, it's much, much, much, much, much, much more important to be great at your sport than to train in any particular way.

So at some point today I developed a gigantic knot in the middle of my back, on the left side. Thought it would go away with rolling, a good warm up and stretching. I was wrong. Legs still sore, too, foam rolling at the gym on the harder roller was paaaaainful.

warm up
foam roll x30 minutes
jump rope, mobility, stationary bike, stretching

work
jump squat 3x3x65
fucked around with a bunch of other squatting, BSS, etc., but nothing heavy or worth noting thanks to my big fat knot. It's okay, it'll be gone tomorrow or Wednesday.

cool down
stretch

LOL, no wonder I couldn't find it in my PMs. Okay, so we're looking at:

Phase 1, neutral = 1:1:1:0 x4
Phase 2, power = 1:2:2:0 x2
Phase 3, reactivity = 0:1:3:1 x1

?

That gives a month of neutral, about a month of power and two weeks of reactivity before re-testing, based on three workouts per week. Seems like a reasonable set up, if not very long.
