be careful with kelly starrett. he's full of great information and exercises, but he's also a postural purist: it's easy to come away from his videos and books thinking that if you can't do things with what he deems to be platonically ideal form, you're putting yourself in danger or at least not measuring up. there's no evidence to support that, at all.

i tried with the bounciest ball in the gym today and could not get the rebound even 3/4 of the way to the rim. i have a ball but it sucks and when i tried to overinflate it (years ago) it just stayed dead. will investigate better options.
today:
WEIGHT: ???
SORENESS: none
ACHES/INJURIES: right knee
MENTAL STATE: good
- warm up
- skater jump x 20,10
- one-step RVJ x 6
- DLRVJ x 15
got a dude to throw lobs on 8-9. pretty close with the right hand on one, most of the lobs were badly timed. vid of that miss below. you can hear the guy saying "that's the perfect throw," but it wasn't. needs to be a little farther to the left so i can catch it with my left hand, which reaches at least a couple inches higher. also that wasn't my best jump of the day by any means, just the closest a decent jump and decent lob came together. oh well.
- squat MSEM 330 x 3,3
- DB push press 55s x 10,10
got it. wrists a little achey after each set.
- BB hip thrust 385 x 15,12
- inverted row x 15,12
- decline sit ups x 14

WEIGHT: ???
SORENESS: none
ACHES/INJURIES: low back tweaking a little, left elbow
MENTAL STATE: good but hurried
- warm up
- skater jump x 10,10
- one-step RVJ x 5
probably PR or PR tie on one of the jumps, 34+
- DLRVJ x 5-6
no one there to throw lobs but i was getting up pretty good. hurt elbow jamming the dodgeball down too hard on third jump and kind of shut my CNS down. wasn't planning for this to be a PR session anyway. tomorrow.
also, my friend at work told our boss (the CEO) that i had dunked and he didn't believe her, so i showed him the slow-mo video with the dodgeball. his jaw literally dropped.

i was gonna say, those would be pretty beastly throws. but no, my understanding is that you measure from the point of first contact with the ground.

here's a clip of it. he's not snatching, but he's also not cleaning. then again, most crossfitters don't do proper power cleans, either. the bar is just light enough for him to pick up and put down. beast.

on the tosses, did you measure to where the ball hit the ground or where it stopped rolling?
