life PR: my net worth is now over $100,000 for the first time.

 :highfive: I like the way you roll.

Its ok if it was a cumulation of quality life choices, effective savings and prudent investing.

But I do hope a little it is your bank roll from a string of late night high $ gambling sessions with a guy named Teddy KGB.

true story: a little (very little, like a couple hundred bucks) is from a gambling session with a guy named bail breaker G.

Compounding interest will get you there much quicker than that!

- warm up

- handstand work x 10 mins
not bad. shoulder still bugging but tolerate these with no issue.

- circuit x 4
-- running in place jump rope x 60s
-- front to back scale x 60s
-- hollow body x 60s
no rest between exercises, 60s between rounds. hollow body holds tough, had to modify for third and fourth sets.

- stretch

Did you lose some motivation to be "a fast and explosive donkey"? Your training has been more geared towards general health/fitness ever since i came back to site.

yeah. couple reasons: first, i moved to pakistan, where facilities for training to be fast and explosive are nonexistent or very difficult to access. also, body was kind of beat up after years of trying, not always intelligently or carefully, to dunk. and tbh i was sick of it. spent a few months this summer starting to learn calisthenic basics and now i'm just kind of letting myself do what feels nice as long as it breaks a sweat and/or challenges me to learn and get better at some skill. it feels nice. i'll settle back into working toward something at some point. not fussed about it for now. well, a little fussed about it but not too much.

You moved to Pakistan for good? how come?

fair enough, when i stopped training for explosiveness, i stopped exercising altogether.... at least you are very active.

adventure, promotion, in that order. i'd been wanting to live overseas basically ever since i got out of college. delayed for a long time mainly because of a relationship i was in, and when that ended i was like, okay time to go. stuff fell into place so that i got sent out here to jump up a big level in responsibility and create my own team, which is a really cool opportunity.

i feel you on the lack of motivation after you stop chasing a big goal. definitely had that last year, felt like i was drifting and was kind of beating myself up about it. stopped having fun or looking forward to the gym. so i'm trying to be a little more zen about exercising. i love sweating and breathing hard and straining, and it's okay just to make myself do that somehow or other 3-5 times a week. and have mini-goals, like getting rid of my right wrist pain, or being able to consistently kick up into a handstand for a few seconds.

it's cool that you're back on the wagon now. anything is better than nothing.

morning:

- warm up

- jump rope continuously x 10 mins

went to bed early last night and got up early this morning. meant to do more but (1) i'm not coordinated enough in the morning to do double unders, apparently; (2) got a work call while i was warming up that cut into the time i had.

i like morning work outs, even if it's just a warm up like this. moar.

Yeah morning workouts are weird. I remember waking up, showering and immediately going for a 30 min jog and just feeling like I was dying despite pretty easy pace.

I think it takes a little bit of time for your body to get into efficient fuel burning. Glycogen converted into fat overnight or somehow unavailable for immediate use the next morning? One of my buddies who's a bodybuilding trainer told me not to hit the protein in the morning because the body can't process it very well but to focus on carbs and then protein load later on. It would make sense if cells need to be carbed up to process protein or something..

Anyway morning workouts are cool. Start the day off strong and it frequently becomes productive all the way through.
