Thanks man! Im a pretty stubborn/motivated individual so its not too bad to lift and hoop, I just stay focused on my goals.

I wasn't doing any leg work last year so Im not sure how my body will respond this year, I play 37-38mins out of a 40  minute game usually so it will be interesting. My tentative plan is to lift Saturday mornings heavy (well at least maintain my current levels), games Tuesday and Thursdays. My goal is to keep.my strength and use the games to help my quickness and movement efficiency....and win. Lol

good plan. seems like your recovery is up to the game. You might even make some gains in the short term.

My progress tracker is celebrating its two year birthday today!

When I look over my upperbody log during that time period it seems like I haven't made any gains

Seems like my specially designed upper-body maintenance program is working excellent.

another squat PR 7x280. My legs feel like they can do more at this point but 280 is digging in my back hard by rep 7.

Maybe its my skirt getting caught in my panties?

or maybe it's your back telling your brain that if you push it harder you're going to injure it.

re-phrase not  like my lower back is rounding due to excessive weight. more like it's uncomfortable to have the bar sinking in to my upper back for prolonged periods of time. but either way, good point.

I have never used the bar pad, but maybe a manta ray would be a good investment?

So yeah I think you're right when you say that they'd still be pretty strong/athletic people even though their only punters.

Edit- Nice work on the squat PR!

Thanks mate.

Those aussie rules footballer don't look to me like your average NFL punters.

After doing some internet research they don't seem to show combine data for 40 yards/ bench type data on kickers/punters.
But they do all seem to be 6'3"ish and around 225 pounds. So safe to say they should be able to easily kick my ass in most any measure of athletic performance.
