nah it was a really localized pain point a bit above the front of my ankle. i've had shin splints before, this wasn't that. completely gone today, fwiw.

i read about a condition called ehlers-danos recently. i don't have it, thank god, but it kind of made me wonder again whether there is something congenitally wrong with my joints.* i am pretty much always in discomfort somewhere or other, and in fact i think i always have been. the pain comes and goes without apparent cause, at least most of the time.

*other than my big toes, which i know there is something congenitally wrong with them. namely, arthritis.

it's just soy. the only thing where it has strong evidence of benefit is reducing cholesterol. so if you're worried about that, carry on. if not then waste your money on something else.

Unless I'm mistaken, these guys are talking about pure glycine. Soybean is certainly not 100% glycine, more like 2% w/w. Maybe the name has confused you?

yeah obviously soy is not 100% glycine, but that article is what comes up when you search for glycine on mayoclinic. the subtitle is "Glycine max," whatever that means.

dunno.

- used an odd bar today. had super rough knurling but spun heaps in my hands. grip felt weak and went mixed on top set.

barrage of strong videos. nice work on those paused speed squats! the last 3 reps of each set looked good, can really see you continuing to drive through.

 :ibsquatting:

thanks! i think the first two reps i tend to be more cautious, just to make sure i can get through the whole set, and then from rep 3 onward i let loose a little.

Nice work man. I have never noticed the deadlifts from the plate before, have you been doing that long? and how are they working out?

the deficit increases the difficulty on the first part of the full and the stretch on the way down. i've been doing them for 3-4 weeks now. dunno whether they're working out, as with the decline sit ups i'm just doing them because t0ddday told me to.

DL no straps - note low back rounding. grip matters.
