lots of people on here are better qualified than i am to offer advice, so all i'll say is, why are you taking all your layups with the same leg/arm combination? shouldn't the ones from the left be off the right leg and with the left hand? even i can make layups off both feet and with both hands and i suck at basketball.

^^ learn to use your left hand/ right leg on the left side, right hand/left leg on the left side.  Also, being that youre a two leg jumper, practice jumping off both as well.

the right/left layup he did on the left/right side seems to work for me so i can skoop under guys arms and get a foul. sorry off topic

Its fine to do reverses and all sorts of variations to the basics.  If you cant ACTUALLY DO THE BASICS though, its a good idea to learn them.  Jumping off the right leg and using the left hand and jumping off the left leg and using the right hand are basic skills, that keep the defense further away from the ball.  There is a reason that every basketball coach in the world teaches these skills to players at a very young age. 

this.

gah, fuck that kid, life is so unfair.



why, yes, yes i would.

Peaks and valleys.  valley

hate the valleys but what are you gonna do? keep putting in work. then, 

then, more valleys.

stupid age, i wish i were 18 again and i'm only 24.

completely mesmerizing and would even be oddly beautiful if you got rid of her incredibly grating voice.

and now, some commentary:

my one ultimate tournament of the summer is this weekend (http://wildwoodultimate.com/), so i decided to take it easy on the squats today. it's a very, very low-pressure tournament but i still want to be relatively fresh. really looking forward to it even though i'm not in great shape cardio-wise.

i'll be on the beach all weekend running around, so no real workout until next week. my plan, pending how wrecked i am after the tournament, is just to start over with week 2 of smolov. 4 x 9 x 240 wasn't that hard, so i think i should be okay. schedule for the next few weeks ends up being:

july 31------------------------------------------ aug 6
tournament, rest, 4 x 9, rest, 5 x 7, rest, 7 x 5

aug 7 ------------------------------------------ aug 13
10 x 3, rest, 4 x 9, rest, 5 x 7, rest, 7 x 5

aug 14 ------------------------------------------ aug 20
10 x 3, rest, 2 x 2, rest, rest, TEST, leave for beach

aug 21 ------------------------------------------ aug 27
beach, beach, beach, beach, beach, beach, beach

beach will include lots of low-intensity exercise and probably some ME jumping and light plyos. will reevaluate whether to continue smolov based on how well my 1RM test goes, as well as how well i'm jumping throughout. so far it hasn't killed my jumping as much as i feared, so that's good, but i'm still at the easy end. i'll be shooting for a 345 squat, which would put me just over 2xbw.

rest days may include light exercise like tennis or interval sprints, upper will be sprinkled throughout as it has been.

now that i'm finished prognosticating and planning, i will commence furiously knocking on wood and throwing salt over my left shoulder.
