fuck floyd mayweather. woman-beating piece of shit.

Thinking about stopping sprinting for a bit? If it's giving you weird knee pain then maybe not worth the risk atm.

yep that's what i'm thinking.

the greatest thing that has ever been posted on this site. bless you, raptor. i have goosebumps. he held on to the ball. HE HELD ON TO THE BALL.

last night i had a dream where we were fighting against an evil and nearly unkillable character in a red hawaiian shirt. he was getting really hot and burning everything and we were losing. our most powerful ally was kind of a wuss and wouldn't do anything sneaky or devious until one of our other allies, who could make her extremities into metal, stuck one of her fingers up the guy's nose and turned his brain into a computer. he got this crazy expression on his face, like an evil clown, and screamed, "i'll LIE!!!!" then he got to his feet, went after the bad guy, challenged him to burn hotter and hotter and told him he sucked and that wasn't very hot and then suddenly our friend shot ice out of his fingers and it swirled around the bad guy and flash-froze the shit out of him. dead.

WEIGHT: ???
SORENESS: hamstrings, upper quads
ACHES/INJURIES: left toe
MENTAL STATE: okay

- warm up

- DL bound x 5,5
crappy distance, didn't get out to 12y, but first time i've done these in months because of low back fears. no pain. yeehaw.

- strides x 15
sprinting out to 30y and then trying to hit 10-30y in 4-12 strides. submax intensity, nothing max was happening on these hamstrings and with this knee. but i got to like 12.5 strides for 30y.

- stretch

worked late tonight so didn't get to the track until 9ish. the rugby team ended early so the lights went out earlier than usual. hamstrings still sore from the RDLs but they were okay after warm up.

yeah this is pretty much the top sports story in the states right now. the NFL and the ravens basically look terrible: he was initially given a slap on the wrist (two-game suspension) this summer after meeting with NFL executives and describing what happened in the elevator. "she attacked me, then i punched her and she fell down." the footage of him dragging her out of the elevator by her hair was leaked this summer but not many people had seen the actual punch. now that everyone has, the NFL is basically just ass-covering by suspending him and the ravens are doing the same by cutting him. what the hell did they think a KO punch of a small woman by an adult man looked like?

seems like the league and the team were hoping this would all go away and people would forget, but they look like wife-beater abettors now. the new jersey DA looks terrible, too -- rice was able to plead into a "diversion" program where he gets counseling instead of going to prison for assault.

mostly, it's sad for jenay palmer and the at least one child she and rice have together.

yesterday (in baltimore, strange gyms are harder to jump in):

WEIGHT: ???
SORENESS: none
ACHES/INJURIES: left shoulder, toes, left shoulder
MENTAL STATE: okay

- warm up

- jumps x ~25 mins
mostly pretty bad, shoulder was bothering me so i wasn't really reaching. mixed in some depth jumps from a bench on the court.

- superset x 2
-- leg press 320,410 x 10
-- DB RDL 75s,90s x 10

- DP OHP 40s x 10,10

- pull up x 5,5,5,5

- some MB throws

- stretch

pretty bad workout.

tonight:

WEIGHT: ???
SORENESS: hamstrings
ACHES/INJURIES: left hip, left toe
MENTAL STATE: okay

- walk x 40 minutes
exaggerated glute contraction on each step.

- lots of stretching and SMR

there is no point in sprinting when my hamstrings are this sore.

I could never understand the knees high in sprinting, or overstriding on purpose. I simply run the fastest that I can as the body naturally decides to place my legs. I don't think about it. If I were, I would be a mess.

lolwut. you know what drills are for.
