Basketball

4 games - played well. I've jammed different fingers two weeks in a row.....NBD - just kinda sucks since I've been working on my grip during the week. Grip work is much tougher with finger jams.

Yes sir but I haven't played in a while though. Like you, I have a son that I can play with. But unlike you, my son is 18 years old and 6 feet tall. I can still beat him one on one... but that's only because I know all his moves. LOL

Ok no VIOLATION

C, I think my strong pressing days are over. I will be capable again for sure, but I don't need to go thru this again. Train smarter, not harder is my new motto

I am dying to try this, but not sure if I have enough room to maneuver the trapbar around the gym floor. I will certainly give it a shot

Haven't checked your journal in a while but your workouts look good. I like how you do sets of chinups or pullups throughout the workout.

That superset looks pretty tough. Hardest one I have done would probably be a leg press/chinup superset. I want to try a squat/chinup set but I'm not sure I would survive.

Go Blue!

How often have you injured your calves, you seem to be in a constant battle with them? Time to hang up the basketball boots soon maybe?



Posted by: yellowmoomba

Quote Originally Posted by davegmb View Post

Torn Left Achilles in 2001
Torn Right Achilles in 2005
Torn Left Calve in 2010
Injured Right Calve (yesterday - not so bad though)

I thought I had a couple more years before I hung up the basketball shoes (damn it - you may be right though).....I'm just getting over hanging up my football cleats (back in 2006). I think about making a "football comeback" every year.....but then I think about tearing both achilles playing and the 8-12 months of rehab.

Thanks. I was strapped. I usually use straps when I use DBs over 110. I can only get 5 or 6 reps @ 130 without straps.

I just curl 'em....LOL.....JK

I haven't been able to train my legs hard for about a month due to some nagging injuries. I'm just trying to keep them from not getting sore if I take too much time off. I focusing on good ROM and some speed rather than heavy weight and reps.
