Milk and its derivatives are full of toxins that should be avoided at all costs.
I wonder if this method can make the deadlift more posterior chain oriented. For a guy like me who "wants" to use his quads at everything, maybe doing this could make me shift more into posterior chain work during deadlifts.
ya go for it.. i do 30 lol.. legs actually become painful at that point, then i stand up and i feel amazing ;di meant 30 min after my workout as in if basketball ends at 7 and i don't get home till 7 30, can i do leg drains?

BTW ZGIN
leg drain is, legs propped up ~80 degrees, relaxed, while ur supine on the floor (on ur back), relaxing, pillow under head chillin`, for at least 10 minutes.. I do mine for 15-30 minutes while I irc/forum.. makes legs feel great, helps return pooled blood/inflam chemicals etc from the legs. it also reduces blood flow slightly and you get a little hypoxic environment going on, also good for recovery.

haha. as soon as i posted in my journal, i googled it and found what it was. Can i do it 20 min after the end of my workout?

When i finish a hard sprint(400m is the worst) I usually get a feeling as if my legs were jello and full of blood
Usually my legs are going to need a few min of recovery before i can run and feel normal again
I think you just stated the cure for this!!!

Ankle rehab during upper body session:
Resistance band around forefoot, 2 sets of each- in/out/up/down.
Light sprint down long hallway (~20-25yards), ~20 light pogos, light skipping back down hallway - 3 sets of this
2 sets of one legged calf raises on stairs.
Ankle flared up a little from this session, iced afterwards and the next day.

Ankle rehab:
Resistance band- 3x20 each - in/out/up/down
3x15 one legged calf raises on stairs. 2x15 with foot turned to the inside ~30 degrees.
Stretched by pulling forefoot back towards body and to the inside a bit.
Epsom salt with warm water, stretched again afterwards.
Same. Usually violence is directed towards those involved or those who would affect those involved. Most targets of violence are either directly involved with government or cartels. My family would have to get really unlikely to get hurt, but it does happen. What's interesting is that that some of the cartels operate like businesses and refuse to get civilians involved. It's like they have their own public relations thing going on. I'm actually working on a research paper on it for my English 1010 class.
Felt pretty lazy today. Quads are still sore by the knee, which is pretty weird. Never had the soreness so low. Didn't get to the gym today, but I did get a $25 gift card to walmart from a raffle I apparently won at the blood drive. Kinda makes the blood pooling all worth it. haha. Still hasn't completely gone away. Feeling good, but it's still there. Might go get it checked out again to be sure.

Squats
[135,185,225 x6][275,325 x4][365x2][385,405 x1]
Jumps
- Depth Jumps 18" x2-4
* BW getting close to 194lbs in the morning. felt strong but the lifts were harder than usual. i had to start with 135lb today because im stiff. 4 day rest from heavy lifting is very good for recovery but it takes effort to get my legs ready again.
* almost got pinned with rep 4 of 325 paused warmup. lol 365x2 paused was not as bad.
* 405x1 a 8.5-9/10 lift. this is a good sign. the workout following a hard delaod is usually a PR. i did not push for a 405x1 workset because legs were just not firing right today. i would have gotten pinned at 405x3 and 405x2 would be hard.
* today should be a good warmup for tuesdays 405x4 4x4-6sets.
lol how u almost get pinned with 325?
adarq, thats possible... i got pinned with 135lb yesterday lol
Did nothing this weekend except some walking, rolling and stretching. And secksing. Hip feels fine and ready to try more squatting but I got up this morning and my god damn motherfucking right ankle hurt. Has been off and on all day, when I twist on it or step on it in certain ways. Nothing too serious but what the fuck? I can't think of anything that would cause it to spontaneously start hurting again. Plus the pain is behind the ankle bone, on the outside, rather than in front of the bone (where the sprains were focused). I repeat: What. The. Fuck.
Gonna go work out today, try to get some footage of squats and jumps and insh'allah not fuck myself up any worse. Gah.
THE RATIO TECHNIQUE BIG EXPERIMENT:
GREEN = done
BLUE = current
RED = pending
