Basketball / Re: NBA Playoffs: 2015-2016

Honestly, I'm glad. Whenever a fucking flopper like Flopobili doesn't get his way, I celebrate with joy.

Sure, it was a foul, but I'm not upset at all :D , people like Flopobili, Anderson Flopejao, James Flopper etc make me hate basketball, so if they get hit, fouled, and it doesn't get called, that's a reason for celebration and infinite happiness.

Absolutely. Go for it. Heck, I would even use them as main lifts.

Yeah, did you solve your issues with your wife? I think I saw a few good pictures on Facebook.

Reiterating this for the 100th time - the dumbbell BBS I found out to be the BEST glute-soreness-giving exercise in existence, to me. Absolutely tremendous glute soreness. Not sure why, but it is like that.

Well, it really depends on your strength, I guess. That will dictate the form.

Here's me in 2011, when I was weaker (ball in hand):

Here's me in 2015, "stronger" (but also heavier):

But what I really mean is this (disregard my arms going to the sides, I'm inflexible):

You should reach up with your arms high, get on your toes, then compress and jump to get really high off standing vert. You're not using your arms at all IMO.

I'll never understand how people do this... you weigh your food on a scale or what? And if so, how come this site has the foods that you eat? And if so, how do you know what the food contains (for example, if you eat pork soup, how do you know how much meat is in it and how much it is water and vegetables?)

And so on and so forth. Seems impossible or it would probably take hours every day to make this. Not to mention foods have weird names that I have to translate.

That's what i suspect too. I think the 150m tempos get them too, as i try to do them not 'stride-style' but 'sprint-style': i don't start 100% and then let momentum carry me, i treat them like normal sprints, keep pushing at each stride, just not 100%. I feel i get a much better training effect that way, strides are too easy, only use them as warmup.

That's exactly what I did yesterday. After 2 sprints of 150 meters I was dead. The worst is that my intestines/digestive system get inflamed when I run/exert effort, and that sucks the energy out of your body like crazy. You feel like giving up immediately and go home and rest for 3 days to recover.

Sprints always give me ab soreness. Runs? Not so much. I think in the sprints it's the combination of the abs trying to keep the pelvis stable and also the iliopsoas working like crazy to pull the knees up.

You should search for similar footage from Russia

Why don't you do the skaters jumps that LBSS is doing? Or slalom jumps going forward? Or jumps over a knee-high rope while also going forward? Bounds. Sprints. Short distance sprints. Long distance sprints. Suicides (very basketball specific). And so on.

Speed is also the ability to decelerate/change directions. That's what you're also programming yourself to be better at using low level/submax plyos.
