Wow, I can't believe how stiff my hips are, in particular the gluteus minimus muscle on the side of my hip. I tried rolling it out a bit (which hurt a lot!!) and hopefully it will be back to normal for tomorrow. Usually I find that my muscles recover quicker than my CNS due to the nature of high intensity training but right now my CNS feels pretty good, it's my muscles that are giving me trouble.
   I really want to focus on getting into peak condition for Saturday, I don't want to feel a little bit flat and have another weekend like this past one--I want to go out and surprise myself, jumping farther than I ever have before. Funny, even though I'm sore right now and there's no way i could jump right now this is probably the best I felt all season. Tomorrow I'm going to do some runways and light bounding. I really want to focus on attacking the ground instead of being lazy and letting my foot drop.
   I was comparing the video from this weekend to my pb and it doesn't look like I'm bringing much speed to the board at all--also I appear to have developed some bad habits on the runway which I'm going to straighten out tomorrow. For some reason I appear to be rocking when I run, maybe it had something to do with the wind but if I'm not stable running there's no way I could expect to be stable while jumping!
