Bodyweight@session : ???
Soreness : legs annihilated all over, lats and chest just very sore
Injuries/aches : none

Volume squatting after almost 2 weeks off hit them legs hard. Pain at every contraction and at every leg muscle, mostly glutes, abductors and VMOs. Can't even walk right, can't get out of my car without hands assist, standing up from a chair looks and feels like a 1RM squat etc, lololol.

Went to the park to let some blood flow through those damn sore leg muscles. Wanted do do an easy mile and then some easy ( 40-50% ) tempos, but it was a no go, anything faster than light jogging caused too much pain. Sucked it up and run 5k in the fastest pace that pain was tolerable. Got 38 minutes, not bad. Kinda worked too, soreness is much declined now that i am logging this ( the next morning ).

^Dunno about using 2%, i was sure using the sore ones too, they were not shutdown, i was hurting at every stride, just picked a tempo that the pain was not annoying, if that makes any sense. I don't think i could go under 30m now, even if fresh. I don't like the distance running either, can't feel it, it is boring and annoying as hell. Fartleks are more appealing, i can see myself doing something like what you did the other day, numerous 200m intervals. That is how i do my 150m tempos too, i never rest, it is run-walk-restart*X. But for continuous running i think a mile is the most that i can see as fun.
As for the result, it sure worked great at diminishing existing soreness, BUT, it also worked great at creating new soreness, hamstrings got fried. So i didn't train the next day either, lol, what a mess, it is funny though, those getting wrecked sessions, just gotta wait another week or two to adapt.

Here we go again. Fitness level was horrifically horrific. Haven't felt this unfit in a looong time. My game was good however, despite not having balled for what, 5 months?
No rim jumps, sore legs plus very fast and high fatigue made me not even want to jump. Next time.

Bodyweight@session : ???
Soreness : traps, glutes, quads, all just a little bit
Injuries/aches : none

1½ hours full court basketball.
Fitness better. But still very far away from good. Current state is gassing out every 3-4 plays i go hard, then need to take it easy for 2-3 plays to recover.
No rim jumps again, too fatigued.
For the shoes junkies:I played for the first time in my Rose 6 boost. Straight up beast. This boost feeling is awesome, plushy like the softest thickest nike air max and at the same time firm and responsive like the best nike zoom. Still not at a fitness level to really push them though, so  i can't really review them yet, stay tuned.

ya i remember Rose saying "they always feel new" .. other people saying that also.

sick.

i was looking to see if they have any flats with boost soles, haven't been able to find any .. but just found this:
