i agree, just like people have the freedom to hate on the rule, BYU has the right to make and enforce this rule..man Jimmer is the man, is he mormon?

yeah he is...humble dude

and i agree people can absolutely hate on the rule....but anyone who goes to BYU knows what they're getting into as soon as they sign up...it's a good private school with very strict religous views so thats the stand point decisions are made from

haha fucking idiots.

SEX IS FOR PROCREATION AND THE SUBJUGATION OF WOMEN ONLY. DERIVING PLEASURE FROM IT IS A SIN. I AM MORONI. I HAVE SPOKEN

people who make statments like this clearly know nothing about mormons by the way

it was a sarcastic, exaggerated statement. i freely admit that i know very little about mormonism.

however, rules made to suppress sexuality tend to favor men at the expense of women.

Knee still a bit still and sore, but not as bad as I expected. Unfortunately, I'm about to spend 12.5 hours on a plane. Will try to keep it limber throughout the day. Calf is still tight/cramped but also not as bad as last night. Nothing serious at all, just #&*!^@ annoying.

Leaving for Pakistan at just before 11 PM and will be gone for two weeks. Should have internet access most of the time, so I'll try to keep posting. The hotel in Islamabad has a gym but I doubt the other places I stay will have one. Very much doubt there'll be barbells and/or a squat rack. At the very least, I want to try to start to get back into some semblance of shape -- my fitness is struggling right now and that needs to change.

BW = ???
SORENESS = none
ACHES/INJURIES = none
FATIGUE = none
DIET = good

session 1: volume

- warmup
shot around a bunch, was tinkering with my form the other day and it was throwing me off big time, but today i was on fire, hit probably 80-85%

- sprint warmup

- sprints : 10-20's
6x15 yards

- dj (18-24") : 4 x 8 (18")

- squat : 3 x 5
270,270,270

- BSS : 3 x 5 each
130,130,130

- light calf raise: 4 x 5
70,70,70,70 == ate shit pretty badly during the second set, banged my knee up pretty good; bit confused still as to what happened

- core circuit x 4
--KTE x8,8,8,8
--OH throw x15,15,15,15

- stretch

Then played catch for about half an hour, which was really nice. It had been quite a while. Now I have to ice my knee, eat some more, and pack.

EDIT: Also, my right calf has been feeling tight/mildly cramped since the end of the workout. Been stretching it a bunch off and on.

Syracuse
Duke
Kansas
Wisconsin

I run in Vibram FiveFingers. It's not quite barefoot running but pretty darn close. They do wonders for my knees and ankles. Before I was cutting out because the pounding on my knees were killing me around 2 miles, but with my VFF I can run 5+ miles consistently. It's a whole different ballgame. Running w/ shoes, I struggle to walk the next day. Running with VFF, I feel even more energized the next day.

I know it doesn't work for everyone, but it's worked for me. That's what matters to me of course. Other people have different experiences. But at 6'5" 215lb, the less stress on my knees the better.

I'm pretty convinced VFF accelerated my arthritis. Just saying.

How so? I have bad arthritis in my knees and I feel like VFF helps take it down a few notches.

My arthritis is in my toes. Genetically predisposed to it thanks to malformed joints and I think I've had hallux rigidus for years in a mild form, although I didn't know what it was until a couple of years ago. But I think jogging in the VFF, which did feel better for my knees once my calves and soleus got used to it, wore down the cartilage and accelerated the growth of the bone spurs I have on top of both big-toe joints now.

Could keep going, but I'd have to take it to the emo thread. My point is that barefoot running can be great if you take your time adapting and if there's nothing contra-indicating it. But it's not the miraculous solution to all physical ailments - or return to our "paleo" roots - that it seems a lot of people make it out to be.
