I would have some more stories to share... like the one time I ripped a rather expensive backpack open because I thought that putting two 20kg plates in it to do weighted pullups would be a good idea. Well... It wasn't. Not really a "scary" gym fail... but a fail for sure.

Some PRs from last week:
SVJ- 33.5"
DL RVJ- 38-39"
Squat- 312@155 pounds (added 100+ pounds in 2 months, but I suspect that correctly learning the form gave me 50 pounds of that and that creatine helped immensely)

Right leg PRs recently:

SL SVJ- 18.5"
Running SL RVJ- 26"

Right ankle was surgically repaired 7 months ago. It's still absolute trash compared to my healthy leg.

Left leg PRs recently (prior to shin splints):
SL SVJ- 23"
Running SL RVJ- 37.5"

those are really good RVJ numbers (discounting RL, obviously). how are you measuring, again?
Muscles are nonsensical they have nothing to do with this bullshit.

I'm jumping at my school's gym. Rim is 10 feet for sure.

Also, my friend has been following my routine (working out with me) and has only gained an inch on his RVJ in 3 months. Seems odd that we are doing exactly the same thing, but he's not improving much.

Because you're recovering from surgery and getting back to your natural level. I don't think you're necessarily "gaining" per se, just recovering and improving as you go. That's why.

not an athletic achievement, but achievement nonetheless.. finally got my code merged into the historic tcpdump tool:

recent (latest phase of re-training) L-SLRVJ  :personal-record:
- 10'6 touch

that basically puts me at 30" RVJ for L-SLRVJ.. need to make that more consistent now.

my big first goal is 10'8" L-SLRVJ and running 3 consecutive miles at <= 5:59 min/mi.

pc!

so im off program, ran a 5k yesterday and still have considerable glute/quad/ham/calf soreness - so i decided to go heavy heh


power clean and jerk - 115kg.

 so that's a 5KG PR clean and jerk techincally.. NOT excpected considering knee problems, soreness, ridiculously weak legs due to knees....but i'll take it 9 weeks out from comp!!
120kg x miss - not quite there mentally, was high enough though.
