WEIGHT: 175
SORENESS: none
ACHES/INJURIES: low back after i tweaked it on a jump, now it's kind of bad
MENTAL STATE: tired

- warm up

- jumps x 10-12
very inconsistent and slow, as expected, but i managed to get a couple around 34. so not a catastrophic fail considering how long i was gone. good job, me. toward the end tried a couple of one-step RL plants and on the second one i got all twisted and my back was like, fuck.

- squat 135 x 5,5,5
back tight but these were doable. i'm slightly regretting it now, though.

- bench 185 x 5,5
whatever

- DB RDL 80s x 10,10

- kroc row 70 x 22(R),20(L)

- stretch

considering i slept like shit last night and am for sure jet lagged, this could have been way worse.

EDIT: two hours later, lower back is really stiff and achey. right knee also bugging. damn it.

i've found that with rows, once i get to a weight where i can't do more than five-rep sets, my form has long since gone to shit. body english for days. ymmv, of course, but i do better with at least eight-rep sets.

Bumping this because I just got an email saying that they had just digitized Charlie's 2002 Vancouver seminar in two parts. They can be yours for the low, low price of $99 each!

I get no shortage of lolz over how spectacularly overpriced the stuff on his website is. Seriously, who buys it? Maybe school-affiliated track coaches with a budget to spend?

put a backpack on and go for a vigorous walk outside? much less boring.

try incline walking on the treadmill. very low impact, very low intensity so should not interfere with other objectives. stick on a podcast or an album you like and just walk.

why do you need to figure out how much the hack squat machine weighs? you're just measuring improvement from a baseline. it's not like "hack squat calf raises" something you can compete in.

not nearly as great a move, but this is brother-on-brother so i'm sticking it in here anyway.

chris, raptor's opinion on this is settled, you're not going to argue him out of it. we've had the debate about the AI/jordan move before. it's just a question of what you value. i have no idea how raptor makes his judgments but to me context matters A LOT. the iguodala move is amazing in large part because he was on a fast break, in traffic, going against an NBA defender. quincy miller ain't much in the NBA but he's still one of the best ~400 basketball players in the world.

AI, as a rookie, crossed up michael jordan, one of the greatest defensive players of his generation at the peak of his powers.

the one recently where the streetball guy (forget who) crossed up some schlub and then did a little dance over him is relatively not as cool. it'd be like crossing me up. hurray, you made an unskilled player look bad in a meaningless game in front of 300 people. it was an amazing move but it doesn't compare.

context.

yes, i guess you're right, AI crossing up michael is the GOAT. still, pretty nasty given the degree of difficulty. fast break, lot of traffic.
