BTW , i did like that experiment a lot , and going back to weights with the physical & mental gains from it will be sick.
Uhhh. You gonna start squatting again then?
Hows that full GHR coming?
Also, 135 lb squat = strong = ...what?
Nice, can't wait to see you get 40".

Hey man,just been catching up with your journal! I think you are doing the right thing with keeping training fun and adjusting to the injury stuff. Sometimes one has to do a new routine even if the old one worked just to keep oneself motivated. Your goals of the fast mile and improving vertical are sure hard to reach at once. But I am sure you will figure out a way to do both! Good luck with the new routine and, most importantly, have fun!
802 lunges. Are you fucking kidding me. Damn man. You mad!
