Saturday 6-14
Parisi Warm Up
Played 5 on 5 for a couple hours, went 8-0. Games up to 15, twos and ones, I averaged like 8 field goals a game, not 8 points, but 8 fg’s so I was pleased with how I played. My legs weren’t totally there but so I kept pulling up and mid-ranging it. They’ve played against me before and had to play off me and respect the quickness, so the pull up was there all day.
Later today went to the hs.
360 Explosive throws (with 5 kg ball, 2x50 chest pass, 2x25 each side throws, 2x25 under hand side throws, overhead slams, overhead throws, under hand behind the head throws)
2x6 hill sprints. the hill was about 25 yards with walkback recovery.
Tempo 1x12x100 yd. with 30 sec. between. the last 4 started with sprints o0ut to 10-20 yards.
Then, circuit of pushups, sprinter sit ups and chin ups.
Feeling good and pretty fresh. Will chill out tomorrow with some yoga, then began the new program on Monday for 3-5 weeks. If anyone has any input, please send it my way. It was posted here a few days ago.
I am going to try and do the yoga 2x a week. It does nothing but replenish recovery wise, plus its an hour and fifteen minutes of stretching, mobilizing and bw iso holds. All good things, and not to mention, the other people in the class. (Read:hot girls)

No man, I wasn’t actually “tired” or anything like that. I was just saying that as in, “Yea, I worked hard today. I feel good.” I can usually tell if I’m overreaching by if I feel energized after a workout or tired. Yesterday, I felt really good after my workout. Besides that, playing basketball in college requires that you can play 5-6 days a week and compete your ass off every time. That’s something that you can’t just turn on or turn off, at least not for me. It has to be a habit and I’m trying to set it into a habit this offseason.
Shot for a half hour, then played 5 on 5 for about an hour, hour and a half. Won all four games, and just tore it up. These aren’t great players, but they are all fairly athletic (some really athletic) so at least good defense can be played, or attempted
After that, did
Tempo 1x10x1125ish yards (up and back four times on 84 or 94 foot court)
Did that on the court, working on a certain move and shot each trip down the floor. Then some stationary ball handling after.
Also, I had a question for anybody in the know. I had a big exam today and I took some Tyrosine before the exam to help with the mental focus. Anyways, I went to the gym after the test so the Tyrosine was still in my system and, as it has been the case 100% of the time after taking it, I felt great. I don’t know why or if anyone else gets the same effect, but that stuff is freaking awesome. Anyways, my question is, is there, like with a lot of other stimulants, a higher high associated with L-Tyrosine and therefore a lower low (as in an increased recovery time than normal)? Or, because there is no crash with Tyrosine unlike a lot of there stuff out there (caffeine, ephedra etc.), it just acts as a stimulant but doesn’t necessitate increased recovery? Also, is there a point where you get used to it and need more to get the same effect, or does it not really work that way? Thanks.
Drilled this morning for an hour. Some good shooting and move work.
Then tonight
High Pulls 5x3 at 115
Snatch Grip DL off 4" platform 135x5, 155x5, 145x5, 135x2x5
These were hard as hell and awesome. My focus was trying to make the movement as similar as possible as a full squat. So I started the concentric from a butt touching calves psotion and tried to lower there.
