As mentioned the other day. Body felt like rubbish the day after the game. Noticed something pretty ridiculous today. I've been "eating clean" the last couple of days. When I say clean I mean proper clean. Low-ish carb, decent protein, moderate fat. Still been having a big bowl of porridge at night to try and get the carbs up. My body the last 2 days has almost felt like a permanent cramp and really just horrible. Really a lot through the hips and back. Also massively in the ankles. I just assumed I had over done it on the weekend or really put myself through the wringer on the court. I just had 4 eggs on 2 decent slices of sourdough bread with 3 florentines on the side. Sitting back at my desk and I just realised there's almost no pain. Feels like I've just dropped a couple of hard pain pills. There's some stiffness still there but as for actual pain...not much. Crazy!

i've had the *EXACT* same thing happen to me, several times (i've journaled it).

i've come to realize it's not the protein, but it's the saturated fat/cholesterol which "fixes" you. Just like you, trying to eat "clean" (lol) - no dairy & infrequent meat/eggs, i eventually start feeling incredibly weak & achy, then I can't take it anymore and I eat eggs or a steak -> and i'm back on track. Whole milk also does the trick for me. I've been eating alot cleaner lately, but getting in my milk, so i feel fine. I've had chicken/meat like twice in 2 weeks but feel great.. because i'm getting in that whole milk. Without it i'd be wrecked. I've been thinking about getting eggs again but i'm just too "lazy" at the moment, don't feel like making them. But they really are the truth when it comes to nutrition IMHO.

run was going good today. last quarter mile of 10, and i clip a rock and almost fall. I land in a deep single leg shrimp style squat on my right leg (which has the hurt glute/hip/hamstring). so, i start thinking, damn this isn't going to turn out good. beyond that i cracked a few toenails on my left foot. was relieved not to have hurt my achilles etc, could have easily done so considering how i landed.

anyway, as the day went on, my injured areas felt great. better than it has since being injured - afaik.

that psycho single leg depth drop might have loosened some shit up.. lmao. insanity.

he's crushing it lately. curious to see how it turns out closer to the trials.

footage from Stinson's 25km american record.

25k (15.5343 miles) is a hard distance for many fans to put their minds around so maybe this will help. Stinson hit 10k in 29:20, split 62:03 for the half marathon and still had another 2.42 miles to go.

i dno like 4:42 min/mi pace or something like that.

flying.

that dunk .. look how far he takes off from .. two leg, with giannis between the rim. ok this guy is on another level ...

yea that was nasty & yea Kawhi is on another level.

Kawhi tried to REALLY bang it on Giannis a few minutes later.. Giannis blocked the fu*k out of him. hah. Had MIL won, that would be the play we remember.

RIP MIL.

Kawhi is one of the few elites currently playing. People need to chill saying he's better than LEBRON tho.. 

I really love watching Kawhi play. He reminds me of Federer.. Just always calm, composed, laser focused, surgical precision, and absolutely lethal. Great on both ends of the floor.

This is a great comparison.

Ball game in the pm. Good game. Against the grand finalists from last season who beat us then. We played ok but missed a lot of shots. They did the same. We were down by 1 with 14s left and  our guy got fouled on a fast break. Best shooter on our team. Missed both free throws with 2.7 on the clock and then our team missed 2 put back attempts. I may or may not have been sitting on the bench after fouling out though haha.

damn hah.
