* 1x / day lift on my working days (wed-sat). stronger yesterday than today but was able to lift with the same pace. calves are still feeling good. will do 2-3 more days with this weight then add +35lb.

bump.. alex morgan too good for the french team.. down 0-2, team usa wins first game against france 4-2..

^ focus on lifting form more than anything else. with proper food.rest.sleep, the poundage will always improve. go as low as your flexibilty allows - if its above parallel, work on your flexibility and buy some decent shoes.

do some jumping every now and then but don't get crazy on the plyo/jumping volumes. almost all jump trainess fail here - they get hurt, usually with some form of knee or joint injury of some kind.

here's me at 92" reach (1" shorter than yours) doing my routine jump drills post squats - if you prefer to squat your way to a high 30s/low 40s SVJ.. i took the easy way to jumping high.. squat.jump.lowBF. good luck!

* if i wear the same lifting shoes everytime i workout, i sometimes get confused if it was morning or afternoon. the repetitiveness is strong lately. ironworks 2 in the morning and 3 in the afternoon to change things a bit.
* excited to order the romaleos volt.

* ate more than the regular amount of carbs this morning post workout - intention was to cleanse stomach from all the meats i ate over the weekend. i had n all-you-can eat brazillian buffet again, from the same place as the week before. espetus. same menu, i ate the same thing with pretty much the same volume. top sirlion, lamb and filet mignon.
* ate kabocha squash, sweet potato and some fruits for cleansing. carb spike made my muscles feel bloated and tight. i was very strong this afternoon. did all the sets without resting - time between sets is only from changing the weights.
* i need to figure out a loading for my calf work that will get me failing at ~ 18-20reps. this 4 set of10 is time consuming. i already workout 2x/day. i want to make the workout as quick as i can.

* calf workout from yesterdays 45 deg sled fatigued me again. lowered by 5lbs on the 4th set to maintain the 8 target reps. that -5lbs difference is big. i was able to hold the top ROM of the 8th rep longer and more convincing.
