Perhaps you should do the pullups, rows and pushups before the endurance test?

Yeah I meant for it to come last. Good point.

Nice overview of the way the body uses its various energy systems during physical activity:

With respect to the first vid in your last post:

"The scientists set up a high speed camera...at the 15km mark of the race, and captured most of the runners coming through. In total, they were able to observe the foot strike of 248 men and 35 women, and characterize them...

...the finding is the following:

    * The vast majority (75%) of the elite runners land on the heel"

In short, as many people in the barefooting movement are smug morons as in Paleo or Crossfit. Not to denigrate barefoot running by comparing it to the latter two, and I believe in barefoot running in principle. But the point stands that it's a movement and therefore many of its most enthusiastic supporters are just zealots.

Jump is ~40.

Yeah have to agree, see my post in the other thread. I'd be a little more generous than 40" but it's closer to that than 48". No hate, though, rip, you can still out-jump the shit out of me and most other people on Earth.

Kind of disappointed having checked the place out a bit. Lots of PTs are idiots, apparently.

Nasty jumps. You look like you're hunching over a little bit on that sprint.

Is that bad?

On watching it again, doesn't look as bad as I thought.

EDIT: But yes, that would be bad.

i have a massage schedule with the "Happy Ending Swedish Massage Clinic" next week.. wish me luck.

As long as this is the reason it's "Swedish," that's cool (really NSFW): http://www.nothingtoxic.com/media/1253751277/Swedish_Hottie_Has_The_Perfect_Body.
