I can definitely feel the effects of cutting the workload down in the weight room. I felt much stronger jumping today than I have in a long time. When I was doing short approach bounds I felt like I was getting a lot of air time--enough so that while I was in the air I had enough time to think "I should be on the ground right now". I am feeling very confident about next weekend, I think that I will pb for sure, everything is starting to come together.
The only real negative today was the shin splint on my left leg was kind of sore but I taped it and it felt a little better. The origin of my right hamstring was a little sore as well but it has been sore for a while, not really affecting anything. I'm getting excited..
