^^^thanks adarq! so would you not squat at all on day 6 and just do glute work and TKEs, or some other squat scheme that day?

sorry been meaning to reply. ya I would squat. glad to see you filled it in with the 3x5. After that session you have one day rest, then you squat again.. so on that day 6, you may want to keep it light, maybe focus a little more on speed out of the hole but obviously still very controlled. The frequency alone is a big benefit, no need to hit some 5-6RM's on day 6. I like how you adjusted day 6 in the actual session. Seems more reasonable.

pc!

- light KB work (swings, snatches) x 20 mins
the left-right disparity on snatches is stark. easy, natural movement on the right side. not at all on left, where i have a hard time relaxing my hand in the right order to get the KB around without banging my forearm.

DIET
breakfast: smoothie, two cups of coffee
lunch: pulled pork, bean salad, cup of milk
dinner: indian snacks, a little pasta with tomatoes and sausage
other: glass of wine

SLEEP
9 hours

Can you palm a women's size basketball?
If so I reckon you could dunk with it since I'm assuming a dodgeball would be a similar size.

yes but not well enough to swing it. the dodgeballs are smaller/softer.

True. Probably just need another inch or two (on your vertical) max and you'd have it. The cheap synthetic balls are also easier to grip than leather ones imo.
