she lives with three other girls and one of them wanted to make a liquor bottle graveyard in their house, frat-house style. the other three were like, um, what the fuck are you talking about, how are you still a child. kind of interesting to see.

That is straight up fucking embarassing. I may be only 20 but ever since I was in high school I could never stand to be around those kind of damn girls...



lol, you should have been in the room when she made the suggestion. everyone else (the other girls including my gf, me, and some friends of ours who are 28-30 and married) was just silent and kind of awkwardly looking at each other, for like five solid seconds. that's a long time in the middle of a group conversation.

I have been doing that squat sequence as a part of my squat warmup lately after raptor posted it in my thread. Feels likes it works great, not sure if it is placebo or real though.
4 minutes per side? Is that 4 continues minutes or sets of less? I do 2 sets of 45-60 seconds.

4 minutes total. continuous sets, but i oscillate through as i go, so there are periods of more or less tension.

also, if your squat form improves after doing the squat sequence, then it's real. not even sure what "placebo" would be in that situation. there's probably a combo of muscular and neural effects from the stretching, but it's definitely real.

at this point why are you still worried about going deeper? your depth is great, you need to keep adding weight to the bar!

- lower leg stretching, focus on anterior hip and quad

What is the set of stretches you use for quads? I ask because i have a hard time applying efficient quad stretches, they all feel like i am stretching the knee and not the quad ( :uhhhfacepalm: ).
The only one that really feels awesome for me is that 'kellyb stretch'.

yup it's all about the couch/kellyb stretch. for anterior hips and quads i have been doing:

- lunge stretch x 2-3 minutes/side
- couch stretch x ~4 minutes/side (torso down for first half, then upright for second half)
- other leg stretches

for all, i try to focus on squeezing my glute and rotating through different parts of the joint -- kelly starrett calls them "corners." what i'm going to start doing* is the stretch from this video, followed by the couch stretch. the rotation really makes a big difference, i end up hitting parts of the muscle that i never could before.

*thought i was doing it already but my memory ain't as great as i imagined. i was only doing the first little part, and that not even "correctly."

I don't know much about american football, but that looked nasty, he intentionally rammed into him, is that allowed in football?

totally allowed. the blocker led with his shoulder into the defensive player's chest. no helmet-to-helmet contact and the defensive player was not (ahem) "defenseless" -- he was actively pursuing the ball carrier. not like a situation where the receiver is up in the air to catch a ball, or the returner is staring straight into the air to catch a punt.

of course, as the headline says, he got flagged for it anyway, because refs are no fun.

today:

early afternoon:
- lower leg stretching, focus on anterior hip and quad
- shoulder extension x ~5 minutes
- thoracic extension/rollering x ~3 minutes
- hip extension/quad stretching x ~5-6 minutes

before bed:
- lower leg stretching, focus on anterior hip and quad
- shoulder extension
- lower leg stretching, other stuff
- thoracic extension/rollering

let's see if i can actually be consistent about this.

yeah kinda, its when people are transitioning from partying college kids to young adults with a job/career

yup, exactly. the difference between 20 and 24 is huge, at least in middle-class kids who go to/went to college.

take my girlfriend's current classmates (she's in medical school). a good chunk are like her, they took some time off after college to work and do other stuff and are now back in school in their mid or late 20's or even 30's. and another good chunk came straight out of college and consequently are 22 or 23 now. the difference in maturity between the two groups is huge even when the age difference is only 3 years. my gf and her crew treat school as a job. the younger kids treat school as college part 2. she lives with three other girls and one of them wanted to make a liquor bottle graveyard in their house, frat-house style. the other three were like, um, what the fuck are you talking about, how are you still a child. kind of interesting to see.

most girls in their 20's aren't going to hook up with someone 5 years younger than them raptor, especially when they can't even drink legally yet. He wasn't talking about lying about anything but his age

the woman i dated before my current girlfriend is 8 years older than i am. we started dating when i was 19 and she was 27 and broke up when i was 22 and she was 30. incidentally, she's now 34 (holy shit that just hit home!) and is married with a kid.

my brother lost his virginity his senior year of high school to his best friend's longtime babysitter. she was 35 at the time. also, to my brother's credit, pretty hot.

n=2 and all, just saying.
