man i'm jelly. would have been so fun to go skiing, it's been so long for me. but with just a week over there and being based in vienna, it didn't make sense.

glad your back is feeling better. just be super, duper, insanely conservative with it, i guess.

Ah, we were at the same country for 1 week,  :personal-record:
Still at plane distance though, i was at the far west end, at the borders with Switzerland.

 :highfive:

plane distance for a european, maybe. it's like 5-6 hours. europe is so tiny, it's cute. i always forget that.

just got back late last night, woke up to a snow day. hundreds of work emails to get through, hurray, but i'm going to go to the gym this afternoon for sure.

i suck and am out of shape but this was really fun. got some rebounds, some steals, blocked a dude shooting a three (he complemented me on my hops later and told me he was glad i didn't try to dunk on him ;D), hit a couple of shots, bricked a couple of shots, what are you gonna do. before and in between the games i hit a couple of jumps easily at 34.

- stretch

one last real workout tomorrow, for which i decided to save myself tonight, and then i'm going on vacation through the following sunday. first-ever trip to vienna, holler all y'all euros on here. might try to sneak over to bratislava, too, and budapest if i can convince my gf that it's worth the time. not gonna pretend i'll get real workouts in but i'm going to try to do 7DVJC as many days as i can, and stretch/SMR.

canvas straps cost like $15-20.

WEIGHT: ???
SORENESS: none
ACHES/INJURIES: lower back tightness was nasty yesterday, a bit better today but still laying off the heavy loading
MENTAL STATE: okay

- warm up

- superset x 3
-- continuous jump squat 15kg x 5
-- SVJ x 3
felt like i was flying on a few of the SVJ. worked on tightening core on the eccentric, seemed to give me a boost. less power leakage?

- seated DB OHP 50s x 4+1; 45s x 5+5+5

- kroc row 70 x 24(L),19+6(R)
the way i pull with each side is clearly different. have noticed this for a while, not sure what to do about it. sometimes it's much more pronounced than other times. i was efficient with the left and obviously not with the right, as i'm right handed and should easily be getting more reps on that side.

- assisted natural GHR x 10,10,10

- superset x 3
-- curl 20s x 10
-- tricep kickback 20 x 10
-- paused band pull apart x 10

- crunch/bicycle crunch/leg lower sequence x 2

- stretch

in re: sharing your goals with other people. i've found it helps me. i might have given up long ago if i hadn't started sharing my goals with people on here. and now that i'm close i'm open with people about it. most people are cool about it - or just impressed at how close i am at my height/skin color - but the few smirks and raised eyebrows are just added motivation. laugh it up, fuzzballs.

6221
strongly recommend the t0ddday method: don't let yourself add steps to the approach until you're getting more height of the extra step. start with DSVJ, move to one-step, then two-step, etc. you're wasting most of those steps during the run-up.

WEIGHT: ???
SORENESS: none
ACHES/INJURIES: lower back tightness lingering but mild
MENTAL STATE: very good

- warm up

- jumps x a bunch
sooo much better, still not where i was the week before last or the week before that but none of the clumsy slow bullshit from the past week. dunked the large dodgeball once or twice, got owned once or twice ( :-[), back-ironed it the rest of the times. a few SLRVJ as well.

- bench 215 x 5,5,5

- BOR 135 x 10,10,10

still giving my back an easy time.
