when roof caved in and the truth came out

whew.

been a long time between posts.

regionals has come and gone. there were some ups and some downs on the weekend, but ended on a very high note with our game-to-go win against pony.

personally i felt good and my legs felt quick and springy for the weekend.

i took a couple weeks off to finally give my ankle a chance to rest. this might have hurt my endurance a little bit, but i think helped my explosiveness and gave my legs a chance to recharge.

in terms of workouts, i have done some running, a snertz in there, little lifting, some parkour. after lifting this week, my legs have felt like crap. i hate that when i squat, my legs get really sore for a couple days. it doesn't make sense, because i warmup, i stretch after, and i do them with good form. need to figure this out this offseason.

nationals is going to be awesome. we are going to have the chance to play a lot of great teams and force ourselves to get up for consecutive games. i am going to play awesome.

they're taking the hobbits to isengard

last week, i took the whole week off to give my ankle a chance to rest and also the staph a chance to go away.

legs felt good this past weekend, a little bit sluggish since i had rested them, but felt fresh. also had a chance to play with the alums at pat bell, which was very fun.

practice was a good time, good preparation and good running. was quite sore after practice from running in the mud and wet.

stretched on sunday night and then rolled a bunch on monday. also put cleats on, threw around and then did a short sprint workout, focusing on quick steps and powerful, shorter strides. stretched some more after that and rolled more.

ladder workout today. more rolling in order.

kick push

well done snertz folk.

past couple days have been taking care of my ankle and watching as my right heel continually got more gross. figured out that i have a staph infection and got on some antibiotics last night.

did a ladder mouse in the house workout with owen and andrew. exciting to see each person improve noticeably from week to week. owen still shreds us up.
