Hey everyone

Hey everyone, my name is mike or on youtube and Facebook as "Trainer Mike" (feel free to add me just tell me who you are) I'm a trainer and an aspiring S&C Coach, my goals for training have always been vert and athleticism cuz I want to dunk even though right now I'm doing more rehab and prehab trying to come back from an ankle sprain that just won't get better.  Also to fully reach my goals I understand that I have a lot of weight to lose, and BF to cut so I'm trying to get better with those, its just sometimes hard to stay motivated.
Anyways I post to a handful of forums and now I'm finally here, so as I get questions I'll post and I'll try and help others out with anything I have info on.

yo mike! welcome!

sucks about the ankle.. how much weight do you want to lose? i don't remember you looking like you needed to drop alot of fat or anything from your pics but if you do, then that can really fuel the motivation for quite some time, just getting that bodyfat off will make you alot less susceptible to things like ankle sprains etc, while at the same time improving vert/speed.

peace man

I'd like to lose about 20 - 30lbs, I've been really increasing my cardio like crazy recently and I'm trying to get through the ankle sprain.  That's kind of what I figured about the weight loss improving vert and athleticism, just trying to take 1 thing at a time for now.  Thanks for input.

I was just reading your post regarding free training, and as another trainer/aspiring S&C Coach, I'm always willing to help people out when I can even for free through email, and many forums that I'm on, so I really like what your doing and I hope to some day have a chance to "talk shop" with you and bounce ideas back and forth.
For the 1st time in quite a while I am feeling like with the current training routine that I'm on with very limited plyos because of my ankle, that if I didn't have issues with my ankles then I'd actually be seeing some vert increase.  I've talked to people before that for quite some time it got to the point in my training where I was 'just going through the motions' and never really expecting to see gains or improvements.
Other separate thing I wanted to ask is it 'ok' to ask if people are sharing files, or trading programs through either IMs or email?  If anyone has any questions for me directly you can get me at Thestrengthshop@gmail.com, is my training email, and also if you want to look me up on Youtube or Facebook, look up Trainer Mike.  Thanks.

well, sometimes injuries are a blessing in disguise.. i mean i've had so many injuries, and nearly every one leaves me better in some other area as i improve that while recovering from the injury.. for a quick example, say i hurt my knee, ok well i can focus hard on glutes/p-chain/calfs/upper body/body comp etc, no squatting/lunging or jumping, but when it heals I would have a better base.. that quick example is just how I get through all of the injuries I've had, hopefully no catastrophic injuries though, that always pokes it's ugly face in my head, but i guess that too is beneficial, because when it does ramp up intensity in my mind, i usually decrease the intensity of my training a little bit.. it is feedback after all, so i try and respect it when the alarms start going off.

well, i would never advocate the sharing of any copyrighted info (or "illegal shizz") that shouldn't be shared etc.. so other than that, everything is cool.
