Progress Journals & Experimental Routines / Re: vag's journal : Age vs Vertical
« on: September 07, 2010, 11:27:03 am »having been myself deeply in love with the BSS, my mind is shattered each and every time I read this man's log.
Especially given where his actual squats are. Brain explosion.
Vag, I think you must be the greatest BSS'er, relative to squat strength, of all time.

how'd you spell out your email address?
Guy paddled over and pointed his camera at me, and I spelled it out to the camera.
imagine if he was like some psychopathic serial killer and now he's going to hunt you down, because in his twisted mind he thinks you pooped in the canal and destroyed some wildlife.
shit.
In your dreams, adarq.
No, really, I mean that.

Yesterday, went hiking/trail running/bouldering with my brother and a couple other kids. Culminated with jumping into the Potomac River off a 40-50 foot cliff. Some kayaker passing by filmed us and then filmed me spelling out my email address (lol) so hopefully we'll have some footage soon! We got a $75 ticket (each) for "entering the Potomac" which is apparently illegal because mad people have drowned in it this year, but whatever. Fucking worth it.

Nutrition & Supplementation / Re: Protein powder
« on: September 04, 2010, 07:29:53 pm »That's interesting. Those "recommended max" estimates tend to be super conservative. If you're worried stay away from EAS and MuscleMilk, but you should be doing that anyway because both of those are a huge ripoff.
I've never used MuscleMilk because it's too expensive. I've been using EAS because I get 5 lbs. for $30 at Sam's. Objectively, what's wrong with EAS?
Edit: True Protein's recession blend seems ridiculously cheap. I may buy some when I run out of the few pounds of EAS I have left (I might as well finish it) It also seems to have a higher amino acid profile. But, I'd still like to know why what I've been buying is a ripoff.
I've never seen it that cheap but aside from price I don't think there's anything wrong with it. So if you can get it for $6/lb, go for it. TrueProtein is cheaper but they have to ship it, so whatever. Wouldn't worry too hard about the amino acid profile and stuff like that.

warm up
shoot hoops
mobility
movement
10 yard sprint @90% x5
DLRVJ @90% x10
double unders x25 (plus other jump rope)
weights
bench 3x5x185 -- nice and fast
BOR 3x8x135 -- same
cool down
stretch
Jumps were quite low (~28-29") but considering the fact that tonight was the first time I've jumped at all in over two months, I feel okay about that. Legs were reasonably sore, too.

adarq, these are not regular people. These are people who are going to be in the NBA. And Austin Rivers' dad is Doc Rivers. Not regular. Let's get this thread back on track.

Ankle Injury Sufferers of the World Unite!
Make sure you rehab that shit loooooong after it feels "better," dude. Keep doing calf raises, keep stretching, keep doing balancing exercises and strengthening your feet. Even if it feels strong again, I assure you, it is not.
Do not replicate my mistakes of the past 7 years.
