WEIGHT: ???
SORENESS: none
ACHES/INJURIES: right ankle is >90%; right thumb also >90%
MENTAL STATE: okay

- warm up

- DLRVJ x a bunch
terrible, so disappointing. one or two acceptable jumps, dunked a mini ball one time. everything else was uncoordinated and slow. changed the rest of the workout, will try again tomorrow.

- band pull apart complex x 2

- stretch

- superset x 2
-- DB swing 50 x 10
-- x-band walk x 12/side
-- hip thrust @3s pause x 10

will go a bit later in the day tomorrow and try to get more pumped up than i could today. 

nice butt wink, brah.

go easy on the squats, consider dropping weights for a couple of workouts. shoes change your technique more than you think. i messed up my hip when i first switched. then again i'm injury prone as hell, so ymmv.

good god what did you have for lunch?

last night:

WEIGHT: ???
SORENESS: calves a little
ACHES/INJURIES: right ankle but only at extreme end ROM, inverted and plantar flexed; right thumb, left big toe
MENTAL STATE: okay

- circuit x 22 mins
-- KB swing x 10
-- push up x 5
-- band pull apart x 5
lost track of how many rounds i did but it was a lot. still, this wasn't challenging enough. should have done 20 swings per round or something.

this morning:

KB swing x 50

WEIGHT: ???
SORENESS: none
ACHES/INJURIES: right ankle but only at extreme end ROM, inverted and plantar flexed; right thumb, left big toe
MENTAL STATE: good

- warm up

- DLRVJ two- and three-step x a bunch

- MR half tuck x 20,20
bad at these, need to refocus on jump assistance for bionic lower legs, as adarq would have said back in the day

- squat MSEM 315 x 3
stretching during warm up sets

left it at that. will do some light conditioning and upper tomorrow. didn't make sense to do this today except that i've got a free weekend and so can try to go for max jumps on saturday in the late morning. i've found that three days after heavy squatting tends to be good jumping, so i went heavier and lower-volume today than i would have otherwise.

got my 50 KB swings in this morning before work.

i guess i'm saying i wonder if the pain would be less if you restrained from using heavier weights.

interesting. maybe ditch fat gripz without adding weight, even though standard grip makes lifting more weight easier? add reps instead?
