Up at my parents' watching the dogs cause family is out of town. Took advantage by going over to the middle school to dunk on their sub-10-feet baskets. Unforunately, the only ball in the whole house that isn't a tennis ball is...a softball. So I had to use that. Still, felt nice to actually put something through a basket for once, instead of trying just to get a knuckle above the rim. Not sure of the height but I'll go back and measure at some point. Got some video, too, which I'll upload when I get back to my house.

warm up
medium-speed down-and-backs on the basketball court
mobility drills, leg swings, etc.
15y sprints x2 @80-85%

work
1-step jumps x8-10 -- some with ball some without
full run-up jumps x8-10 -- same

cool down
stretch

Again, not sure how high I was getting but the video plus a measuring tape will help with that. Felt nice. Full run-ups were good, I was actually starting gradually and then accelerating into the plant somewhat. Need to focus on getting low cause I'm damn sure not reactive enough to jump high otherwise.

First workout since Monday, I was so excited. Wasn't an awesome workout, but whatever.

warm up
shoot hoops -- cold then hot
sprinter's warm ups
10y sprints x4 -- pretty light intensity

work
1-step x10-12 -- mostly shitty but a couple I actually got low and hit 30"
tuck jumps 2x10
pogos 2x5

REA squat 2x3x75
jump squat 3x3x75
squat 5x255
OHP 3x5x105 -- figured I might as well progress from 95
chin up 3x5x44 (chain weighs 8.5, so weight from the other day should be 41.5)

cool down
stretch

: WEAK!  

OK , i've had it with being lazy , i will launch an all out attack:
- more reactive work
- more cardio
- more abs
- more stretching

WTF , its waiting there , GO GET IT!

x2. Work has been getting in the way for me but fuck that noise, time to get back on the horse. 

I don't know if you're aware of it, but another myth "from the elders" about eggs is that the "evil, intoxicating thing" in the egg yolk is a half-inch "whiteish" color "thing" somewhere in the yolk... if you boil an egg and then crack it, you can see that in the middle of the yolk more often than not.

Whitish foods should be avoided at all costs as they cause muscle protein breakdown as soon as they enter the bloodstream. Studies have also shown a tentative correlation between whitish foods and throat cancer.

LOL , yes , it happens all the time to me , especially when i do my upper body split that has 7 exercises.
This week i had the exact opposite thing happen , i started 11lbs heavier than i wanted to. And i was "WTF , why am i so weak?". Turns out i benched 3x8 with a weight i was only able to do 6 reps for 1 set last time. 

Haha, that's awesome! Guess you're not as weak as you thought. 

That dude has really flexible hips. I don't think I could get my butt that far off the bench. Not that I'd try, though.

It's 9:59. Leaving work now.

OK vag, you win. 

OHP 3x5x95

Should have been 3x5x125. I warmed up and ended up with 25# on each side of the bar. "Aha!" I thought to myself. "Now it's time for the work sets."

They felt super light and I thought to myself, "Holy crap, I'm stronger than I thought! Alright!" Not until I was replacing the plates did I realize my mistake.
