^^^jesus christ! there's nothing like that on the east coast. some of the western mountains might be in range but i've only ever skied in vermont and massachusetts. killington has something like 130km of trails and 22 lifts, about 1000m drop between summit and base.

Hey now I think thats about 4hrs or so from me, small world!  If I ever went skiing though I'd end up in a body cast

lol you definitely would have been the biggest guy on the mountain.

I'm curious, do you wear a brace while hooping/jumping?

nope. there's not much strong evidence that braces have any injury prevention benefit.

EDIT: just started wading through pubmed there's some new literature (like within the last year or two) on this. will give it a look. but i'm pretty sure i'll stick to neuromuscular training for the foreseeable future.

despite what the studies say, i've worn a brace for over 4 years now when playing competitive basketball and never sprained an ankle. i'm 99% sure i would have sprained one of them at least once without the braces. However, i do think it partly led to my messed up knees and it also takes away a degree of athleticism so they still kinda suck.

WEIGHT: ???
SORENESS: none
ACHES/INJURIES: right ankle but only at extreme end ROM, inverted and plantar flexed; right thumb
MENTAL STATE: good

- jog x 1.5 miles
took it very easy, ~8 min/mile pace, not breathing hard by the end.

- stretch

- KB swing x 25

- hip thrust x 25

- X-band walk x 25
one rep is left then right. more like a shuffle, my room isn't that big.

new commitment: 50 KB swings per day, every day. i also did 25 this morning.

WEIGHT: ???
SORENESS: none
ACHES/INJURIES: right ankle but only at extreme end ROM, inverted and plantar flexed; right thumb, left big toe
MENTAL STATE: good

- warm up

- DLRVJ two- and three-step x a bunch

- MR half tuck x 20,20
bad at these, need to refocus on jump assistance for bionic lower legs, as adarq would have said back in the day

- squat MSEM 315 x 3
stretching during warm up sets

left it at that. will do some light conditioning and upper tomorrow. didn't make sense to do this today except that i've got a free weekend and so can try to go for max jumps on saturday in the late morning. i've found that three days after heavy squatting tends to be good jumping, so i went heavier and lower-volume today than i would have otherwise.

got my 50 KB swings in this morning before work.

last night:

WEIGHT: ???
SORENESS: calves a little
ACHES/INJURIES: right ankle but only at extreme end ROM, inverted and plantar flexed; right thumb, left big toe
MENTAL STATE: okay

- circuit x 22 mins
-- KB swing x 10
-- push up x 5
-- band pull apart x 5
lost track of how many rounds i did but it was a lot. still, this wasn't challenging enough. should have done 20 swings per round or something.

this morning:

KB swing x 50

WEIGHT: ???
SORENESS: none
ACHES/INJURIES: right ankle is >90%; right thumb also >90%
MENTAL STATE: okay

- warm up

- DLRVJ x a bunch
terrible, so disappointing. one or two acceptable jumps, dunked a mini ball one time. everything else was uncoordinated and slow. changed the rest of the workout, will try again tomorrow.

- band pull apart complex x 2

- stretch

- superset x 2
-- DB swing 50 x 10
-- x-band walk x 12/side
-- hip thrust @3s pause x 10

will go a bit later in the day tomorrow and try to get more pumped up than i could today.  >:(
