So, back in the saddle. MB2.0 is starting to work out. My shot is improving (12 points in 2 games of 15) and I’m getting more lift. Dunking isn’t in my immediate future but perhaps more rebounds count for something. On the downside, it takes a couple of minutes to get warmed up. Getting warmed up means missing the rim by about 4 feet and quite literally giving the ball away for nothing.

That just frakking hurt. I dropped by the Y today to get some time in on the court and I slammed in the throat by a boulder of a shoulder. Cheap shot, blindside leaning pick. F*** I could barely breathe for 15 minutes and I’m gonna be lucky to slurp down my ramen noodles through a straw.
What really pisses me off is the normal court high jinx. I’ll notice a guy going to the middle, I’ll forget for a second that a belly built over 15 years is slowing the mover down, I’ll fire the pass away and the guy stops outside the lane. Then I get blamed for the bad pass. It’s time to join a league because the pick up games are getting me down.
On the plus side, I did continue my MB2.0 project. After the game I hit the leg weights. I actually forgot how much fun the training is. Next phase of MB2.0: getting back on the running path…

I started using my bowflex today. It’s a bear to get started with the weights again. Maybe I should watch the DVDs again. The reason for it is simple: I am having difficulties playing with the big guys. My passes are off, my shot is as bad as highschool, and I’m not able to grab the boards. So, I gotta be MB2.0.

Ran on the mill the first day, then couldn’t stand it inside any longer and went for a cool mile outside. Felt tons better, the temp was 30 degrees.

Warm up 5 min, ran mile and cool down 5 minutes. My cold is totally gone and I feel normal again. Now I need to build consistency.

I hate excuses as most of them are a sign of weakness or an inability to do what we originally set out to do. During these dates I’ve been sick with acute bronchitis /chest cold. I tried to run on the mill but stopped within a mile, it was just BRUTAL! So I’m feeling better now [...]

Rock on. I’ve been hitting the court myself lately. The word “Ripper” just doesn’t sound appealing to me right now so I’m taking it easy

Michael Here… I’m in Illinois taking care of sick family and it’s 3:50 at night. Unfortunately, I can’t sleep. So, I decided to put on lots of new features in from the BuddyPress package. This will give us the opportunity to extend our little site to new members with much less [...]
