it's my dick in a box

friday, went to the gym and had 6 climbs.  nice to get back to the wall and stay loose and strong.  also was able to do an active warmup and also run through jg's jumping x 2 and some extra jumps in. also, about 10 minutes in the sauna.

so, day 2 of tryouts over.

both days went well.

day one.

some drills and some scrimmaging.  overall, great effort and was happy with my ability to cover people.  had some stupid turnovers where i forced it into a spot that was a little bit too small.  did have a really nice layout poach d that i was happy about.  

more importantly, it was very apparent that i need to start doing some track work and get myself the opportunity to spend more time with my legs burning and not wanted to run or work hard.

day two.

another solid day of running hard and working out.  had some pretty good deep shots and cuts and hit all of them.  was able to throw a really nice break (not sure if it was break, but seemed like it might have been) backhand huck that was really a highlight for me of the day.  also, another deepshot on the forehand that was pretty.  didn't get a d, but was able to play solid d and make people work very hard to get the disc.  one disc i really should have got to and didn't go up for until too late.  really wasn't happy with how badly i read this disc and did not finish when i needed to.

things to work on;
1. frisbee endurance
2. marks
3. "micro-charges" and positioning to play physical d

how to achieve;
1. track workouts.  plain and simple.  more running in the threshold
2. on your toes and be in better shape physically
3. think about triangulation and start trying new things.  think about where you need to be that will be obnoxious.

she's just being miley

went to hotlanta and had a blast. great time coaching and hanging out, little mini-vacation before the real vacation.

thursday i went and played with zoo. was hoping to get an actual workout in, but of course they can't field 7's. boot and some dictation drills.

friday i got up at 4, hit the gym for seigs' circuit.
75-75-85-75-65. this was tough. also did a mile warmup on the treadmill

jumping x 4 w/free throws in between.

saturday
25 min. run. pushing on the uphills, little easier on the flats and downhills.

sunday and monday- off

tuesday- zoo practice again. this time playing 6's. got a go-to layout d-block that i was happy about. other than that, felt pretty gassed. it's officially time to start running more.

the sprints at the end were killer and i could feel my legs starting to cramp. felt pretty lightheaded and only did 7 of them. eck!
got home and did;
30 crunches x 2
20 man tacos x 2
100 taps x 2
15 diamonds x 2
15 pushups on bars x 2
15 close to body x2
10 regular.

stretched after practice and feel good today. going to 'canes practice and then off to the gym for lifting today.

took monday off. really had wanted to do a sprint workout but let my desire to take a day off get the better of me. right now, i am regretting it.

next time you feel like not doing a workout, remember you are going to regret that time off at some point. believe me, it's not worth the regret.

god loves ugly

as mentioned earlier, gymshow

went and did the squat rack workout, except not with the squat rack, some other little rack thing.

5 sets of 6 @ 75, 75, 85, 75, 65.

the pushpresses at 85 definitely took a toll, but i was happy with how it went. next time, maybe try to do the last one at 75.

hit the gym for jumping.

switched it up and did normal off one foot and then jumped from right underneath the hoop. usually got above backboard padding and aimed for the orange plate on each one. can definitely get better at this one and am looking forward to doing so.

1x30 crunches on ball
1x20 man tacos
3x10 rocky on decline

free throws were pretty bad at 7/10, 6/10, 5/10, 6/10. not from being tired i don't think, more because i am pretty bad at basketball. oh well, keep getting better.

hit the sauna for a few and then home.

tomorrow should be fun. decent amount of leg stuff.
overhead db incline i would like to do with 40's
calf raises w/ 40's
lat pull down at 120
back pull thingy at 50
single leg squat at 12.5's
leg press
wall ball
box jump
db swing
benchpress
situps
jumping
jump rope
tabata burpees

possibly not all of this, but a good amount. should be fun.

da da dadum da, da dadadada da dum da

chips theme

anyway. wednesday was a climbing day. 6 or 7 climbs, don't remember. i do remember feeling exhausted but really glad that i took the time to climb.

thursday was a day off. thank god. it really felt good to not do anything.

tonight, heading to the gym. no practice so i will get home at a reasonable time.

going to work in the rack and do seigs' workout. most likely at 75-75-85-75-65.

that should mix it up and keep it very challenging. going to warmup on the treadmill, quick active warmup, jumping/free throws.

along with the rack, going to get db swings, wall ball, jump off box, calf raises, single leg squats, and possibly jump rope. tomorrow i will throw in some tabata stuff (updowns and something else)

rock your body

lucky enough to get to play today.

warmup jog and then active warmup.

scrimmaged for about 1 3/4 hours. didn't take a sub at all, had a few layouts and got the d a few times. really tried to work on putting my body in the way of the cutter and stopping them from going where i don't want them to go.

felt pretty tired and really need to start playing/track working more very soon so i don't get fatigued early on. i want to be the guy who has more gas than anyone else.

went to coach and did some stuff with them.

overall, good. glad i got to play and should have caught one layout, really should have caught it, and then also dropped an in-cut. dumb.
