notes:
-exercise actually made me feel a lot better, so i think my session could’ve been much stronger, but it was still nice to fit it in today and to feel better
-pc form really getting there. 185 looked pretty smooth even at the fifth rep. first rep flew up
-nice to not have to use any of the smaller weights to warm-up now. i can throw on 45’s and just worry about the change now, haha
-not surprised at weight loss, actually happy with how little it was. had trouble eating most of the day, and definitely didnt eat much on sunday or saturday, really, either. probably a bit dehydrated, too
-tons of pop in my vert. it is noticibly higher than in the fall, when i measured 35" at sprinter testing. if I can break 40.5", i could be looking at a school record. with the concentration on half-squatting i have now, and with my treatment making a clear difference, i see no reason that i couldn’t challenge it (which would be especially funny if i never exit mediocrity yet end up on the weight room records wall, haha. then again, Seibald, a lax player, holds the 40 yard dash record, so weird stuff definitely gets up there). it’d be cool if i could dunk while exiting college, too. i know Trindon Holliday could throw down ad he was a bit shorter than me and had a 42" vert at the combine i believe. i’d love to step into one of my fraternity’s intramural basketball games just to try and throw down, a 5’7" kid dunking would be a sight
