Yesterday, played frisbee golf with my brothers for ~2 hours. Lots of walking around and some running to make sure we didn't lose discs in the woods. Hadn't ever played a full course of disc golf before. It was fun but man do disc golf discs fly different than ultimate ones. Still hadn't gotten the hang of it by the end.

That shit does not even begin to describe my sadness right now. I'm a happy guy, and I haven't smiled in like two hours.

I should be benching 220 and oly squatting 300. Im a bit below that.  ;D

I assume you mean kilos. Cause there's no way in hell my estimated max bench is 381 and yours is 220.

LOL, I don't own the gym. I'm just a member. Feel like I own the place, sometimes, though.  ;D

I'd settle for owning a home gym, but that's off the table at the moment because I don't even own a home.

ur runup looks like it would benefit from a little more speed dude...

and wat fucking gym is that? theres a big ass tyre for flippin there? on the courts? wont it mess up the place quick?
awesome!

That's my gym, dude. Balance Gym, in good old Kalorama, Washington, DC. People flip the tires all the time, lot of "functional" training around. We have basically no lifting machines except a cable tower, but three squat racks, an olympic lifting platform, benches, jump ropes, med balls of various types and sizes, DBs up to 125 or something like that, etc. It gets cramped at times cause of the classes (especially Crossfit), but otherwise it's a great gym. I gotta admit, flipping tires is super fun. Don't think it really messes up the floors, although the court is getting a bit old and there are some dead spots. Not from the tires, though.

You're totally right about my run-up. It's kind of "mushy" at the moment, as adarq said the other day.

that shake looks like it would taste weird, i mean, so many different fruits...

i dun like the blender, gives shakes a frothy and bubbly texture... :/

Tastes so good, you have no idea. If you don't like the blender, how do you make shakes?

just a thought, maybe he had a fluke moment..I had some insane jumps when i am super relaxed, like 5-10inches more than normal jump due to being unnaturally calm for no cause

5-10 inches???  :o

I've had that with ~2-3 inches but a 10 inch increase out of the blue from being relaxed.



I'm not attcking you BMully, everyone is different and i just felt like posting the pic  :P

i don't lie, i got super relaxed in a game and almost dunked with 2 hands, head was heigh as hell, this was 8th grade

Yes yes. And I won Mr Olympia. It was just a fluke. Im back to fat now again.

that is a physical change, not possible to do just like that..in times of extreme pressure or extreme relaxation, people can get super human abilities..that is how i grabbed rim as 13year old who could only normally get half way up, this one jump i got rim, then it took a while before i got it legit everytime...the cns is responsible for strength and power, we develope it to allow more, but it is always capable of that power

ya bmully is definitely right about a substantial performance increase, verkhoshansky referred to it as the 'innate (protected) reserves'.. in which access to that strength/force output is restricted, but through years of proper/aggressive training, athletes can keep improving how much they can tap into it at their own will.. i mean, i remember i was jumping shitty say 5 months ago, then that cop pulls me over, and i jumped like 3" higher after alot of fatigue, that wasn't even life or death, but that small adrenaline response/heightened cns arousal lead to some gains..

level-7 = PR city.


True. But claiming a 10" sudden increase is idiotic. Thats like when Rip claimed that crazy crazy sprint time because he saw a spider or something like that. Actually I dont remember if it was Rip, but someone did claim to run a crazy time, faster than world record speed.


btw yes, that was rip that ran a WR after having a spider on him :D

Hehe. I thought I remembered it. :highfive:

Yes, athletic improvement can increase during certain circumstances we all know (Lev 7 MANG). Yes 10 inch vert increase suddenly is about as likely a sudden 100lbs improvement in the bench. And yes this is a long quote, quote, quote, quote, quote. And we all know that rip pr'd becuase that spider was a super duper mega jumping spider, and when in landed on rip, some of the exlposive and elastic qualities of its legs were temporarily fused with rip's Bi-legged frame.



show me the video of ripp doing a wr in 100m after a spider jumped on him

No vid. Only story.

correction, "No vid. Only true story."

Can I quote again? Looks like fun.

Was it fun?

It definitely was, it's like the LEVEL-7 quote training.

This thread is epic. I only pr when running after the bus

I PR when on massive amounts of caffeine & when my legs feel light.

I tend to jump best when a smoking hot bitch will give me something as a result of great dunking ability.

I know, but doesn't that apply to anybody that's heterosexual?

i jump REALLY good when hot chix are around.. i say to myself, "land this dunk and they will leave their pathetic boyfriends for me".

Why would you want a girl that has pathetic boyfriends? Or is this the kind of girl that looks the best?
