you talkin' to me? if so, 1) i'm not in the market at the moment; and 2) your feet are too small.

rest it and ice it for a couple of days. then gently try to exercise the area again. if that doesn't work and the pain persists, see a doctor.

last night:
BW = ???
SORENESS = none
ACHES/INJURIES = little tweak on back of right shoulder
FATIGUE = low
- warm up
- DLRVJ x ~10
just bad. had a couple of good DSVJ during the warm-up, immediately after sprints. but then crossfit was using the exact area i needed, despite there being lots of open court space elsewhere. have i mentioned, fuck crossfit? more jumping tonight
- bench 5 x 165 || 3 x 175 || 9 x 185
meh
- pull up 5 + bw || 3 + 5 || 9 + 10

« on: April 12, 2012, 09:37:45 am »What are your recommended weightlifting shoes? Is http://wlshoes.com/ a good review site for weightlifting shoes?
rogue do-win have done me right so far and they cost less than $100 when i bought 'em. that website looks solid, actually, thanks for the link. might try for those wei-ruis when the do-wins die.
kingfish can address higher-end shoes if he feels like it.

« on: April 12, 2012, 09:28:05 am »edit: never thought about that type as posterior, more medial i guess, but apparently "posterior shin splints" is the normal term for them. http://www.coolrunning.com/engine/2/2_5/196.shtml.

also, the serious answer to this hilarious question is, "no, unless you somehow have REALLY heavy neoprene handy."

BW = 173
SORENESS = none
ACHES/INJURIES = none
FATIGUE = low
- warm up
- MR half tuck 2 x 20
second set higher-effort
- squat 2 x 2 x 300
- hanging leg raise 3 x 10
- stretch
worked out before work this morning because i didn't have to start until 10, and i have an obligation tonight that i'd forgotten about. as such, kept things short and sweet. squats were very fast, bar popped easily off my shoulders at the top of each rep. will do some jumping and my upper-body stuff tomorrow, then back to normal schedule on thursday.

BW = ???
SORENESS = none
ACHES/INJURIES = none
FATIGUE = low to moderate on saturday, very high on sunday
went out to a cabin on the shenandoah with a big group of friends for my roommate's birthday. drugs were taken and/or smoked, large quantities of alcohol were drunk, excellent food was cooked and eaten. the weather was absolutely perfect and the location was unreal -- we had 15 acres of riverfront property to ourselves. and i was never more than mildly hungover thanks to massive water consumption.
friday:
- BSS 3 x 8
using lunges to stretch thighs
saturday:
- touch football x 60-75 minutes
made best two defensive plays of my touch football career. clutch.
- BSS 1 x 8
sunday:
- tennis x 45 minutes
- BSS 1 x 8
today is more rest, per smolov, then back in the gym tomorrow.
also, listen to this song: http://www.lowerfrequencies.com/2012/04/jai-paul-jasmin/.
