baseball game (2 SB, 1 bunt for a hit)
6 min abs
30 stomach vacuums
static stretching
notes:
-im having too much heel recovery after my first two or so steps while stealing, i must be cueing my legs wrong if this keeps happening, ill try to strike my foot down more than back so maybe fuller triple extension will help my legs go in a more piston-like path
-i felt pretty slow today but the infield dirt at the field i played on was very soft and clay like so i hope it was just that

(schools gym)
notes:
-so i was just fooling around with my stealing start today and it turns out that i think the solution to my problem is the exact opposite of what i thought it would be. when i cued downwards i could reach triple ext and my body compensated by wheeling my leg immediately up. if i think of pushing backwards more my leg extends fuller and the heel recovery is much lower
-i didnt get a lot of sleep last night so i didnt push it too hard in the wieghtroom
notes:
-i wouldve made 50+ in the push ups today except a friend stepped on my back in the middle of them making two or so reps much more difficult and ruining my rhythm, grrrr
-my 60 felt very relaxed, but my start felt kind of iffy

notes:
-i went not too hard on the weights to concentrate on form today
-i think i can increase my volume or intensity of medball throws, they felt very easy today
haha, i thought it looked too easy so i wasnt gonna try it but then i saw that u said it was tuff so i said why not? plus u no that holds arent my thing so that made it much tougher too

notes:
-so the 2 sbs arent actual stolen bases because a passed ball occurred on one and a bunt on the other, but the point is they were all out runs
-i didnt really push the weights again to make sure my form was down, i will start increasing weight again over april break

(school’s gym)
notes:
-so i finally figured out how to make my legs do a more piston-like motion in my start, it feels good so hopefully my starts will improve from it
so while this is just on my mind i wanted to get it down on paper… heres my initial plan for fall (its suppose to be some sort of gpp for a l-s during the winter season):
sun - static stretching
mon - speed, lower weights, heavy medball throws
tues - tempo, upper weights, time based core work
wed - speed, lower weights, weighted core work
thurs - tempo, upper weights, time based core work
fri - speed, plyos, lower weights, rep based core work
sat - tempo, depletion exercises, light medball throws
i dont run that fast (6.92 55m) and i generally have a pretty good work capacity so i think i would be able to handle 3 high intensity days a week without any problems

notes:
-i havent gotten much running done in my games as of late because im in a bit of a batting slump
-190 for a set of 3 in power cleans is a new pr for me so my leg strength is returning. my squats are still not at the same level they once were but my clean strength is back
-the rdls at 145 felt a little too heavy as i stopped feeling that good stretch in my hammys
