Great to hear, that's the spirit!

I mean wouldn't it be great to have one more nerd dunker with us?!

FWIW, I still eagerly follow the dunk thread. :F

I remember when I started doing long distance running toward the end of my dunk training, my single leg jump emerged.... so who knows. ;f

I really just want to get very light & get my long distance running speed back.. Once I do that, then I'll have options regarding jumping. Until then, I'm just not in the kind of fitness to even risk performing a single jump. Having 'mental-memory' and 'muscle-memory' without fitness is a scary thing.. Means you can get injured very easily, because your mind and body don't cooperate.. so ya, f that for now ;]

It did?

Maybe you became more of a "tendon-dominant" "mover" so to speak... because it would be retarded to be a muscle-bound long(er) distance runner.

That's why I love 200,300 and 400 m runs for one-leg jumping. I don't know exactly what "long distance" means for you, though.

Hah, I saw the MySql thread.
Random fact:  I'm currently working on a library for Android to facilitate working with SQLite.

How have you been Adarq? What u up to?

What are you using functional programming (Erlang) for?

looking forward to the weirdest before/now/after pic progression. 150lb to 195lb back to 150lb!

nice!

not much.. i've calmed down my coding projects. Instead, i'm just studying a variety of languages. Less do, more learn, pretty much. Haskell is my preferred functional language ;-) It's my preferred language in general now but this 'step back' is slowing down my personal projects.. this is good though.. I was just coding like a chicken with my head cut off (if that makes any sense). Work takes up alot of times, so when I finally get to code personal stuff, I keep finding that i'm rushing it.. sooo.. had to cut that out. Now I have no projects other than learning ~30 programming languages lmfao. Here's all of the langues i'm going to be messing with for quite some time:

https://github.com/adarqui/polybooks/blob/master/cookbooks/polyglot_programming/recipes/default.rb

sounds nutty I know.. but there's a method to the madness.. ;f

you developing for android in Java? How's the code life going?

ya i should unprivate a few of my single leg vids.. i just loved single leg jumping for as long as i could do it.. i developed this horrible pain in my left leg towards the end though, as if i had a 'shin splint' in my whole leg.. it was wrecked.. quad death.

3.5 mile run, fastest so far... :]

all 'fastest so far's etc are relative to my recent comeback.. not historically, obviously. ;f

run felt great.. my balls are wrecked tho wtf. TMI.

Those are a lot of languages :)).
Coding in Java for Android is going well, I've really evolved a lot and learned a lot of cool tricks.
I wanna learn some new languages too, but first I gotta know these ones very well.

Do you think your calf hurts from being heavier now or just from it being a while since you last ran?

Yo Mutumbo.. sorry for the late reply. Well, the extra weight doesn't help. However, this is from an injury that happened in ~2003. Streetball, fast break, about to go up for a layup, defender somehow managed to knee down into my calf. Tore it pretty bad, was on crutches for a while, out for ~3 months before I could do anything.

so, if i'm not in proper shape, it flares up. It's amazing that it never really flared up when I was into dunking for all of that time. I'd feel the scar-tissue area but it wouldn't ever prevent me from doing anything. I probably have a huge bit of scar tissue in there.

It's all good tho it'll eventually disappear, sux tho it really flared up bad.

Just a 3.5 mile walk. No running until this calf issue clears up.

Going to start stretching it again.. Need to continue to stretch just to loosen up a bit more. I was enjoying running but whatever, have to be patient.

Other than that,.... lots of coding/reading. Up too late as usual. Downloaded some new lectures/talks for my car-rides to work and back. Lots of dependently typed programming stuff, which I'm really interested in lately.

gn!!!

No worries man.
It's interesting how the body builds up resiliance when it's training regularly. I took a 6 month lay off from training but over the past couple of years I accumulated a lot of niggling injuries (lower back, hamstrings, calves). You'd think that after having 6 months rest my body would've fully recovered but instead as soon as I went back to moderate training they flared up again.
But like you said it'll eventually disappear and hopefully my hamstring can recover like your calf once I'm in shape again.

It seems pacquiao will face chris algieri on 22nd november
don't know what to think about it, algieri is relatively unknown
Warm up drills
   - a walk, b skip quick powerful switch (heel to hams focus), a runs, dribbles small to big to run, straight leg to runs (force, reflex, go up/forward). force to hit the ground before it hits the ground knee/hip is at 90 degrees.
   - acceleration: low heel recovery, shin angle low, drive legs back before hitting the ground and drive thighs/knee forward not up
-------------------------------------------------------------
Measuring reminder:
5 toe to heel steps = 148cm
------------------------------------------------------------------------

Arm also aids the legs in driving it down with power - seifullaah73

interesting... very interested to see how algieri performs against pac. That's a bad fight for pac to accept. I can't see how he'd be "super motivated" to fight Algieri.... But he can't sleep on Algieri cause that dude can box.
