Hey Andrew,

Just wanted to say thanks for the dorsiflexion advice. Those power skips are great as a warm up before I do my plyo's. I've been wired for so long not dorsi-flexing, it still feels awkward and gotta actively think about it during my plyos and I still can't get it perfect but it's improving. Hopefully I can re-wire myself soon, but it's definitely improving.

I still can't get the heels to touch the floor on my SL bounds but I'm getting around my midfoot now and it's definitely helping me load my glutes/hams better! The key is as you said: focus on cycling the leg properly, getting the heel under the butt (on top of focusing on dorsi flexing of course)

nice! definitely seems like progress.. see what happens after a few more sessions, I imagine you should be able to get the heel down.. good thing about you feeling glutes/hams loading more.

ya that leg cycle is important and seemingly often overlooked.

pc man!

Hey, what'd you think of the Ronda fight if you watched it(its been floating around fb) Looks like shes been too cocky that she will beat everyone so quickly that she didn't work on conditioning because she was looking like me after doing a metcon in the second round.

yo, didn't watch it. I saw some gif's though.. Heard she was just outboxed. Holm has waaaaaaaaay better standup. Alot of people seemed to want Rhonda to lose because of her recent cockyness, seems like they got their wish. I didn't hear anything about her gassing though, only that she got taken to school in boxing and then KTFO'd.

Yeah I skipped the first round because well girls fighting is boring when its a sport, when they are grabbing each others hair and ripping clothes thats when it gets interesting. The 2nd round she looked wobbly, could've been because of her gassing or the kicks n punches to her dome. She looked hot in the pretty much nudie pics she took but after that fight eeeek, looked like her face gained 10lbs lol

slept in way too late today!! feh.

i like what i did prior to my day run, contrast shower really helped my legs wakeup.. lungs however, different story. Lungs feeling dead could just be me not being able to cop with any lactic acid .. i havn't been eating as much as when I was loading up on bananas.. so my body could be tapping more into fat instead of glycogen today (and tomorrow considering how I ate).

was going to singup for a tennis tournament on saturday but they have a strict dress code and it's scheduled to rain all day (like it has been all week). They require tennis shorts and a tennis shirt.. i actually don't have that. HEH! I have normal clothes for tennis, but not 'club level'. So forget it for now..
