lol, i'll take that as a compliment, i think.
last night:
- deep stretching and SMR x 40 mins
hooooo boy. got wild with the lacrosse ball in my pecs, delts, and lats. had my gf leaning up against me as i leaned into the wall. the shoulder IR improvement was both immediate and shockingly significant. some serious hip ER work, too.

depth and form improved, so you're not regressing, you're resetting. you'll get back up to where you were with respect to weight on the bar and it'll actually mean a lot more.

last night:
WEIGHT: 176
SORENESS: quads, back (the whole thing)
ACHES/INJURIES: none
MENTAL STATE: rushed, stressed, was a long day at work
- warm up
inadequate mobility stuff. rushed it and shouldn't have.
- snatch drills x a bunch
got a buddy who's an oly lifter to watch and offer some tips. all focus now on high elbows during the second pull.
- power snatch worked up to 48kg x 3
some better than others, focusing on high elbows.
- paused HB squat 265 x 5,5
solid, but i need to figure out what i'm doing wrong with the bar placement. it ends up touching the acromion process on both sides and i don't think it's supposed to do that.
- circuit x 2
-- SLRDL 80 x 10
-- dip x 10
-- pull up x 8
- stretch
bah.

WEIGHT: ???
SORENESS: none
ACHES/INJURIES: none
MENTAL STATE: a little tired, normal
- warm up
fast feet, a-skips, b-skips
- broad jump w/reset x 4
36'
- DL bound x 4,4,4
all sets were PR's, but second set was the first time i actually went farther than the broad jump total. it's a technique change though so it doesn't really count. i think i was just doing it wrong before by focusing on landing on my midfoot/toes.
- various DSVJ, SLRVJ, DLRVJ at different distances and intensities x a bunch
- sprint 40y x 3
first i messed up the timing, second and third were 5.3
- sprint the straights, walk the curves x 4
- jog home
- stretch
there was, oddly, a hoop on the field behind one of the end zones next to a big patch of track surface. i think it was about 9'6, based on where i touched on an SVJ i did. all jumps were pretty awkward and slow. not sure about heights because i'm not sure how tall the hoop is but all bad. just reinforces that nothing can replace actually practicing the thing you want to be good at. no shit. i hope it's still there next time.

this is where i was last week:
Rakaposhi Mountain. It's about 7800 meters high.
The Hunza River viewed from a 1000-year-old Buddhist fort. Can you tell which side of the river is irrigated?
Me standing awkwardly on top of that fort.

Probably the same person who did it to me a few weeks ago. Hmm, who do we know on the forum that is known for this sort of BS?
i'd make a comment about all the time you'd need to waste to do that much but i probably spend more time on here than all but a few members, so
