- run 4km
first 3.5 @ ~5:00/km, last 500m appreciably faster, maybe 4:00/km. pretty easy but i am not in any kind of running shape. contemplated the amount of work it'd take to get into 19:xx 5k shape (i.e. as fast as i was the one year i ran JV cross country in high school).

nice. you talk about those JV years on occasion .. you know you want to get that fitness back :D  :ninja:  :ibrunning:

you find any good photos yet? if so post a few.

good stuff man but damn sounds like you needed some rest days for sure hah.

you used the brace during the tourney I imagine? felt fine, no problem?

pC!

Yeah there are a few but nothing special. i got up pretty high in the second one but the guy got the pic when I was well on my way down. Both of them are on the way down actually



Probably right about those rest days. Forgot to mention I had a 3/10 shoulder ache too. Pretty much all gone today except slight groin and knee pain.

dude those photos are very sick, ESPECIALLY the second one.

Brace worked pretty well other than having to adjust it constantly and it's pretty bulky. It came off on one of my layouts which cold have been bad.

damn .. eek :/

Injury, Prehab, & Rehab talk for the brittlebros / walking on rocks for foot health
« on: August 15, 2017, 04:10:16 pm »
no idea if this is a "thing" ... but, whenever the bottom of my feet get jacked up (plantar fasciae sore etc), I have this nagging thought to "walk on rocks". It actually seems to help. It can get quite painful if I hit the "right combo of rocks", digging in to various spots within the sole of my foot. Some of the positions feel really good, some feel painful & then good, etc.. It's almost like some kind of deep tissue work. The different rock positions also stretch my toes/forefoot in different ways too.

I have pebbles in the back yard, to fill in certain spots. So I can just walk around (slowly) for 10 minutes or so, pausing in certain spots.

dno. feels good.

hehe.

Adarq, people that are really bulky it is harder for them to handle the bball low to the ground correct? Compared to say someone like Dennis Schroder who is skinny and therefore not as much muscle get in the way when he is splitting the defense?

derek fisher was kinda bulky. nate is kinda bulky. if you bulk up, just need to keep dribbling so you don't lose any coordination.

muscle doesn't "get in the way" .. if you increase the size of a muscle and don't train skill, skill will suffer. usually the act of putting on more muscle comes to the detriment of skill training itself - ie, bodybuilders just want to lift, they don't want to dribble a basketball for 2 hours a day. Find me a basketball player who loves dribbling, but also wants to get huge, and you'll probably find a bulked up dude who can dribble just fine.

skill skill skill.

Nutrition & Supplementation / Re: DOPE recipes!
« on: August 15, 2017, 03:52:29 pm »
a recipe that includes physical exertion as the most important component:

1. exert yourself (particularly in the heat) for a considerable amount of time
2. lose a significant amount of water weight
3. pull a bunch of grapefruits out of the fridge (better if cold)
4. cut them in half
5. squeeze the juice onto a spoon, slurp it down, then dig into the grape fruit & grab the pulp & some more juice
6. repeat while in utopia.



recipe will probably also work well with coconuts, watermelon, oranges, etc.

apparently, heaven is being dehydrated from prolonged exertion in the heat, then gorging on tons of fruit, particularly grape fruit.

after 2.5 hours of walking in ~92 F, came in and destroyed 5 grape fruits.. was just amazing. didn't want it to end.

at the end of all this, the real story will be how bad Paulie Malignaggi ruined himself.

http://www.mmaweekly.com/dana-white-felt-sorry-for-paulie-malignaggi-after-12-rounds-with-conor-mcgregor

he acts like he punked Dana, then Dana actually punks him.

Paulie, if you're reading this thread, please stfu and disengage from Conor vs Floyd.

Because I don't follow the sport enough: Does ODB have the best one-handed catch in NFL history?

yes.

x2

and every year since, someone will do something insanely impressive & people will attempt to compare it to ODB's catch, but it's never on that level.

<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zxbz3DDQzHU" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zxbz3DDQzHU</a>



the main announcer freaking out (Cris Colinsworth) is a former NFL wide receiver like Beckham. :ninja:

The delayed reaction was basically my reaction .. seeing the initial catch felt like a life glitch - what just happened? how'd that happen? then you see the various slow motion angles and it was jaw dropping.

:D

There's been some other ridiculous catches, especially in the super bowl. But the "impossibility" of that catch is just incredible IMHO.
