And if I'm not mistaken I believe the 45's at full lockout misses the ceiling by about an inch or two lol.

plenty of space  ;D

back has gotten progressively better over the course of each of the last two days, and it was easier to get out of bed this morning than yesterday. definitely worst in the morning, and it's pretty stiff and sore right now. if this rate of recovery continues i'll go to the gym on thursday just to get the juices flowing and stretch.

^^ LBSS, correct me if I'm wrong but I think coordinating a team and plays is more tactics not technique. Technical would be how the running back positions his body while running, taking a hit, etc. Or how the linemen push off or hold their opponent from getting to the QB.

I watch some football but I'm basing that idea on soccer terms. So I may be wrong. My thinking is technique involves indvidual skill and tactics involves the team as a unit.

I also want to add that football players work on their combine skills specifically with combine specific coaches and I doubt basketball players do. Not like their numbers wouldn't be sick as it is.

the precision required to run the tactics properly requires extremely refined technique. the pulling guard in Power has to move very quickly around several other huge men who are all pushing the shit out of each other, without tripping over them, while staying aware of what several other players on his team and the other team are doing. receivers have to run routes exactly to where they're supposed to go and when. and so on. every position is more technical than it looks, even running back.

trust me, as a fan who has spent the last five years cringing as my team's players mostly failed to develop the skills required to play their positions well, technique is really important and it has to be taught/learned.

tbh I haven't seen much football. I thought it is just run and bump. In my mind the only technical part is the long distance passes, everything else is just out=strengthening/powering/sprinting your opponents. I would love to discover the technical side of this sport. Granted it is already VERY appealing without it, a technical side too makes me easily imagine why you go crazy about it.

ah, then you are missing the great beauty that football has to offer. i would actually say that of all the sports i watch it is the most technically complex and reliant on precision and timing on a play-to-play basis. to give you an example, here are diagrams of how to run one of the most fundamental base plays in the sport, Power, against four different defensive setups:



the circles represent offensive players and the letters represent defensive players. the circle with a cross in it is the center, who's holding the ball at the beginning of the play. the black circle is the running back, who's gonna get the ball from the quarterback.

the offensive linemen have the second-most complicated jobs on the field, after the quarterback.

it is also, of course, about out-strenthening/powering/sprinting your opponent.

agree, except the idea that football isn't technical is...wrong.

thanks y'all. was reeeeeally stiff when i woke up this morning. trying to loosen it up gently by walking around, moving legs around, flexing glutes, etc. also ice and ibuprofen. prognosis for a low back strain is good, hopefully i'll be back to full strength in a few weeks. that seems like an impossibly long time right now but if i can at least be doing some conditioning, some BW stuff, some unilateral stuff before then then i'll be okay. for now, rest and ice.

WEIGHT: ???
SORENESS: hamstrings a tiny bit
ACHES/INJURIES: none, then, well, see below
MENTAL STATE: good, then all over the damn place

- warm up

- DB jump squat 30s x 4,3
threw the everloving shit out of SI joint on the fourth rep of the second set. took me at least five minutes to be able to stand up. new experience for me; i had that prolonged back pain last year in the same place but it was dull and persistent, not breathtakingly sharp like this. i just put down 800mg of ibuprofen and will ice. the gym is closed the next two days anyway, so i guess it's rest time. fuck, i must be getting old.

The day before his fight against Manny Pacquiao, Floyd Mayweather took two intravenous infusions totaling 750 milliliters. The bags contained mixtures of saline and vitamins, but their contents are irrelevant: any IVs over 50 mL are strictly banned.

at least you're doing more reps now. try doing some longer sprints as well.
