Duddeee I don't know what to say about this... despite the novelty of the name and the video the kid has serious vocals.

WEIGHT: ???
SORENESS: hamstrings a little
ACHES/INJURIES: right knee (WTF GOD DAMN IT) right ankle is near 100%
MENTAL STATE: so fucking pissed

- warm up
right knee not okay

- DLRVJ walk out + a bunch at 2, 3 and 4 steps
horrible. right knee out of it, CNS so dead and slow. what. the hell. only explanation i can think of for the right knee is KB swings but that would be weird, it has so little knee action, but nothing else has changed in my habits. current mesocycle not working, need to revert to the one i laid out and be more disciplined.

how long have you been on this current cycle? what's going on with the knee?

dig homeboy sandman. was not familiar with him before.

word! yea homeboy is dope, but he's a bit obscure i suppose. he is signed to an independent label, Stones Throw Records, which is one of the best hip-hop labels; this label has nothing but top-notch talent.

TITLE    : If I Could Change Your Mind
ARTIST : HAIM

I love this video, it has such a retro vibe to it; the awkward dances, the pastel colors, the neon, absolutely beautiful. I suppose since the grammy nomination this song has blown up, I remember watching the video when it had some low view count.

super quick journal

02/16/2015: run 4.1 mi, bodyweight strength
02/17/2015: run 3.4 mi
02/18/2015: run 4.1 mi (90% of the run done midfoot, some forefoot), bodyweight strength

midfoot run was feeling fast.. still not adapted i imagine i'll be pretty sore tomorrow. forefoot strikes felt the best.

must keep striving for my ideal form.

pC!

TITLE    : America The Beautiful
ARTIST : Homeboy Sandman

Homeboy Sandman has one of the best flows I ever heard, something about it works very well. I think he puts an emphasis on the flow rather than on a highly technical verse, it seems obvious that he could choose the latter if he wants. The video is pretty cool here, the song is awesome.

TITLE    : America The Beautiful
ARTIST : Homeboy Sandman

This has a much stronger visual for sure, even the accompanying track is stronger imo. It has such a scary vibe to it. It should stated that I don't agree with some of the things he touches upon in the track, I'm not sure if even he does; I think just wanted to paint a strong atmosphere.

TITILE   : The Star Room
ARTIST : Mac Miller

Mac Miller is such a talented artist, it's a shame he often gets overlooked because of his appearance. He seems pretty smart and is quite involved in the process (vocals, production, engineering). This video is very dark, which seems to be the trend with lots of his recent material. Clearly he is pretty into drugs, hopefully he stays safe (he says lots of worrying things). Another cool thing about this video is that it touches upon the concept of reality, which I often doubt lol.

TITLE    : Kill Your Co-Workers
ARTIST : Flying Lotus

Fly-lo is arguably the best producer from the first wave of experimental hip-hop producers. He has began to generate some significant buzz in recent years by working with some prominent artists, etc. Another song of his, Zodiac Shit, may have more appealing visuals however this track has some freaky vibes to it.

TITLE           : Hiking / Fif Dim
ARTIST        : Mndsgn (pronounced mind-design)

Absolutely beautiful melody with an epic twist. This video has a ton going on with some dope concepts and stunning visuals. This is also currently one of my favorite songs!

TITLE           : Pyramid
ARTIST        : Pyramid Vritra

This is a very powerful song. I love the way it seemingly transitions from this evil, malevolent environment to a benevolent one. This is a very talented artist with some very interesting ideas and visuals.

Music videos are getting pretty insane, etc.

I think it would a good idea for each post to contain a bit of information about the artist:

TITLE           :
ARTIST        :

abandoning the stopwatch thing already, given that half the clicks i got today were 12-13 and half were 09.

why are you going to abandon the stopwatch cns test? i agree that it is a bit tedious, however it can give one some very valuable insight when looking through their progress. so with that said, perhaps you should reserve the test for special events in your training, ie: max/submax jumps, max/submax lifts, etc.

im sure you are doing this, but if not, another suggestion would be to average your click times.

nonetheless, keep up the good work! i hope to see some nice results soon now that you are following the advice from adarq.
