Good day... No GREAT day. I tested my squat today and finally got four plates (: That was my goal all season, I have a checklist of things I know I have to do to jump 15.00m and that was one of them. I'll be testing my power clean later this week too. I am hoping to get close to 300lb's. The focus will soon be shifting to jump/sprint numbers.
   Track session went well too--hit 8.92m/s a couple times and overall was consistently close to 9.00m/s on the runway. Last week I ran a 1.09s (today 1.12s) but I had help from the wind where as today was completely still and was an honest judgement of where I am at... If I could get over 9.00m/s consistently that would be FANTASTIC.
   When warming up this morning my focus was off, my mind was adrift and I though it was going to be another mindless day but I was glad that I really regained composure when it came time for the workout and in the weight I did exactly what I needed too! I guess what I'm trying to say is I did all the "little things" like I should have.

The Good

  • 405lb squat (:
  • Regained focus this morning when my mind was elsewhere
  • Runways felt good, times showed that

The Bad
  • Squat had some buckling of the right knee, 
  • Runways could have posturally been better
  • Camera battery died at the track, wasn't able to see where I was on the board but I think 35.60m was putting me pretty much right on.
