It looks a bit better now, but still, if you can make the background, sides and upper a darker gray. Def improved though. Keep it up.

coo thnx. btw i really appreciate the feedback, i have no problem with the 'cold hard truth' ;)

i plan on having multiple themes where you can just click a little pulldown to select which theme you want.. that way you can have the dark gray background one etc if you want :F

I don't have a jump rope at the moment, but if that is the best option I will go with that. Any suggestions of a good cheap one? Do you think Walmart would sell a good one? Also what do you recommend as far as the jump roping, do you still have that YouTube vid of a jump rope recovery session?  Thanks for your reply man

it's definitely the best option IMO.

sports authority has a good quality, cheap nike rope.. as far as what i recommend, eventually getting a buddy lee speed rope.. but start out with a cheaper rope like the one at sports authority.

here's the buddy lee rope i have, it's really fast, and it's not even the fastest one he offers:

here's the nike rope that i used to use, from sports authority.. i can't find it on sports authority's website, so here's a link from sears:

http://www.sears.com/nike-speed-rope/p-SP102A18691S6313067406P

but really, any of those ropes at sports authority will due, as long as they are close to 9'..



here's the recovery vid: <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ePY6-xrTYiI" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ePY6-xrTYiI</a>

lots of fun little variations in there that will TOAST your heart rate.

peace man!

I was wondering what a good form of cardio would be that I can do in my living room. I really can't jump rope, so would light hops and jogging in place be okay? I'm kinda inspired to do this to get terrell owens lean or something similar because i'm incorporating the leangains/carbbackloading diet approach. I would do this fasted first thing in the morning  for 15-30 minutes, I really can't walk or jog any where. Would agility type drills work?

why can't you jump rope outside? curious.

jump rope is definitely your best option, so.. if you can figure out a way to get that done, go with that.

otherwise, you'll have to do in place calisthenics + circuits such as burpees/in place sprints/defensive shuffles/situps/mountain climbers/quick lunges etc... the key here would just be to get creative & have some fun, always mixing it up.

i'd imagine cossack dancing would be pretty effective.

how to compensate for that? i mean I could just change the color of the dropdown menu tab when there's new posts, which would alert you of new posts.. as soon as you hover it, you'd get the big menu etc..

peace man

That's not really a problem, when i said hover over the menu and it should drop down, the menu at the sides are the different forums that will be on the menu, then you can have those different menu's with different colours to indicate new post, then you would go to the sub topics, which will also have colours to indicate, which topic has new posts in them and which don't.

Example

if progress journals has new posts in them it would be as follows.

                ADARQ   \/  - Arrow
                                                         
 | Adarq.org Special Content >|
 | Performance Training Blog > |
 | Adarq & LanceSTS - Q&A   > |
 | Progress Journals & Expe > | a fast and explosive donkey |
 | ....
 | and other options

and clicking on the threads could create a pop up box like you did with the conversion tools, which displays the latest unread posts, in order and also an option to go to that thread.

Also i can see the list is long, you could make the Options be the options you have used in the forum i.e. Introduction Area, Blog Section, Members Area

and then a sub option would like in Members area would be journals, call em out, quitters, etc.

and then a sub sub option would be the threads in that sub sub option in order of new to old, with colors indicating if you it is new and wether you have read it or not as when you log in and accidentally log out the new posts are gone only the ones you have posted in.

 ADARQ.org v2.0    \/ - blue is just an example anything,
|
| Introduction Area  >|
| Blog Section          >|
| Members Area      > | | Adarq.org Special Content >|
| Performance Area  >| | Performance Training Blog > |
| ...                             | | Adarq & LanceSTS - Q&A   > |
                                  |  | Progress Journals & Expe > | a fast and explosive donkey |
                                     | ...
so what do you think

nice pseudo-design!@... ya i was starting to not like the idea of getting rid of the left nav column.. so i think the way you propose is best.. we'll have the nav on the left, with easy expansion like you mentioned.

i really love refreshing and seeing boards highlighted as new posts & being able to click through real fast.. with your idea of expanding menus, it's going to be really sick.

off to lunch! ;d

yup, clicking and dragging worked. not intuitive though.

ok cool least it worked.. ya maybe ill just put a regular scrollbar and get rid of iscroll.. just need to do custom scrollbars because i hate the default ones.. never did that, dont even know if it's 100% possible.

pC

The drag menu thing would have been cool on a touch screen, i guess.

what if we got rid of the menu as a whole and keep the forum style navigation you had in the old forum ..  :ninja: ... maybe.

how about a drop down menu like in windows explorer, file, but it says menu, click on it, a list of all the topics and then you hover mouse over one topic i.e. progress and journals which has an arrow next to it and that will display another menu to the right with the list of all the threads in order of most new to most old like in the forum and click on that to direct to it. we want an internet style look to it and not a windows explorer look to it.
if you get what i mean.

i will try and create an example if possible.

edit: i found something a bit like what i was talking about, looks nice but you can adjust to suit this site.  :headbang:

http://www.webdesigndev.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/fancydropdown.html

but in those options you can expand to sub-options and have whatever colour you like for new and old posts)

hello.

great idea.

thanks.

:F

ya that sounds alot better than the touch scroller I have.. good stuff.. then the forum width will go back to normal (so to not compensate for the scroller)..

love it.

i can picture it, hover, menu displays with forums, then hover specific forums to see latest/unread posts.. sounds diesel as f*k.


shit.

the only advantage that the scrollbar has on the side, is that as i'm navigating i can see which boards have new unread posts without me having to go out of my way to 'hover a menu'.. hmm.

how to compensate for that? i mean I could just change the color of the dropdown menu tab when there's new posts, which would alert you of new posts.. as soon as you hover it, you'd get the big menu etc..

peace man

scrollbar still not working, or, rather, it goes up and down but so does the rest of the page. it's not dissociated, is what i'm saying.

that scroll bar on the left is 'different', you have to 'click and drag' etc.. you try that? if you hover over it with your mouse and use the wheel it'll do both scrollbars etc.. it's a "touch scroll" thing... try a real quick click + move mouse up or down.. the scroll bar should fly & move real smooth.. maybe eventually ill just turn it into a normal scroll bar if people have issues.

also, that light blue... :huh:

i like it on principle, though.

ya ill fig all of that out eventually.. ;/

yup ^^

lazy journal:

hamstrings/ham tendons sore.. lower back sore (from crazydeep sq).

planned on doing activation/prehab stuff, but relaxed 100%

ate alot

14441
its cause he is soo tall

Completely unrelated, but in the schroeder/iso article he references knee pain caused via popliteus and that activation of it solves this issue.  How is he referring to activating the popliteus? Contraction of the hamstring of front leg?

nice new articles btw  :strong:

What's the schroeder article you are talking about?  Do you have a link?  Very interested in this article will read through this one at work!

http://evolutionaryathletics.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/isoextremes-dr-j-2.pdf

who is Dr. J? Jay himself? Those notes were confusing because it seems like they have multiple sources of info. Some seem like jay, west, alexv, other WGF people, and finally our friend Colbert.

some of the stuff is pretty interesting like usual.. those notes make more sense than the "5 minute" gospel.


edit: oooh.

"Here is a collection of post by Dr. John Pitella from his facebook group.  Sadly all the info was lost but I did save a bunch of his posts I found interesting.  This is 17 pages in PDF format an an interesting read!"

cool.
