Other than that little order switch, if it ain't broke, why fix it, IMO?? |

| Nice job on the full recovery. Lot's of discipline to work within acceptable ranges when you really want to go all out. |
| Great news! Can't wait to see you really open it up and see what it will handle! It's like bionic now, right? |
I think my whole body feels like it's bionic with all the injuries that I've had

Do you have any translations for these?
I read part of the article that you linked about CW's program. It looks pretty tough to do that full body workout 3 times a week.

To "posterize" someone would be to make a play worthy enough to be printed on a poster (ala: a dunk over someone flat footed on the ground)|

- Jump Squats are tough
I ended up making my last three shots - all from behind the arc - to win the game...12 -10 ...
.....Playing 5's will be a little different. I'll try full court next week. It felt good playing though |

How did you respond to this the first time you did it? I think I have a serious mental block just doing only one set per exercise. I thought about designing a 3 day full body routine, but then when I looked at it, I realized it was too much switching between bodyparts, and I am sure I would tire quickly going from squats, to a bench press, to a T-bar row, to a shoulder press, etc. So I scrapped the idea and am sticking with what I am doing now. |

I'll find out the difference when I switch back to my old routine. < |
