missed Friday session, threw lots over the weekend.
Open Stones, most around 35. Hit a 36+ with my 15lber, all with horrible form also. LH, third time this year with this. No tacky, first session out grouped at 72, second grouped at 75, went 2" short of 80' today. Feeling good. LWFD. Turns were slower than my old dog. So I brought out this old 22lb guy I used to practice with. 5 throws with that......lotsa speed. Then back to the 28....all that speed was right back to where it used to be. 45-50's. HWFD. Hitting the right spots, feels good....but the distance isnt there yet. Not worried, it'll happen. 30-31's. Set some new goals, all attainable. I've had no problems putting my time in at the gym, but admittedly have limited throwing time in. I read a book a few years back in regards to the 10,000 hour rule. I'll probably never throw that much, but you get the point. Its all about putting the time in. malcolm gladwell Also, since the weather is breaking.....and soccer/dodgeball season is almost over. I think I'm going to go from 2 to 3 days in the gym, in 3 different gyms, and throw twice a week. |

JVG,
"HWFD. Hitting the right spots, feels good....but the distance isnt there yet. Not worried, it'll happen. 30- 31's." I need the secret! I weigh in 192 (this morning) and I can get the 56 out to 21 and some change. 30' is awesome! Jase |

yelling?
I used appropriate punctuation; only two exclamation points. Capitals when called for. <shrug> |

You sure did, but I was referencing your throws, not your interwebbing. I like to yell when I throw. Aldo....those hwfd #'s are with the 42, so you're right with me. |

played soccer tonite. I quit the league, but the team I started went another session. Their goalie couldnt make it, so they recruited me back for a double header.
First game, we won, I allowed 2. Killed it. Second game, same thing in the first half. Then I felt like my team got confident with me back there or something, cause there were a load of 1 on 1's. All quick ass little hi school kids. I got drilled a bunch, off the chest, everywhere. Until I took one from about 10 feet away in the face. I knew I was going to have a nosebleed so I just took my shirt off so I wouldnt bleed all over it and starting walking off. Pretty sure their usually goalie wouldve been uber pissed. I really dont even care, if anything I just proved to myself that I can pretty much take the physical abuse and shrug it off. The other team was asking if I was "on the juice" as the youngsters were calling it. Obviously not, but I'll take it as a compliment. Oh yah, and I threw 7 PR's on Saturday. Its amaxing what an 18 month off season at the right gym can do for a fella. |

Thanks. nope, this is actually my second real season throwing, so I dont think I was on the radar for invites. I cant really count the one games I did last year because I was out for a good long while with an achilles tear. Hoping this years numbers will get me my invite to next years LW gig. I've got lots more work to do in the gym, and even more to get that strength and speed to carry over to throwing. You're throws are looking real solid, especially those hammers, like whoa. I'm sure we'll see each other sooner than later. |

I only threw as LW once last year and it wasn't put on NASGA. But I managed to grab one of two open slots in KC this year.
This is my second season also. My offseason was bad in terms on lifting due to a groin injury but my throws improved big time. I think you need a certain level of strength, some events more than others.. .but nothing beats throwing to get better at throwing. My hammers sucked last year and over the offseason I probably did hammer 3-4x per week. Now I need to bring up the other events... |

Good Luck in KC. tonite. Box Squats for speed 45,135,225x5, 315x5x3 Incline Press 135x5x2, 190x5x5 Snatch 95 t0 165 by 5lb increments via 1 rep lotsa stretching, lotsa mini band pull aparts besides a 70mile canoe race, my next games/strongman isnt until June 25th, gonna try and fit a nice cycle of some weirdo 5/3/1 stuff in there. One PL movement, One Strongman, One OLY movement per workout. |

Squat
59, 147, 195, 245, 333 x3, 365 x2 disappointment. hit 365 for 4.... 6 weeks ago. however, i've been throwing lots and hitting a few weddings, so it makes sense. yolk, all for 120' 292, 392, 452, 502. only the third or fourth time doing this, happy with the 502 for that distance with no drops. overhead medley 100db,100keg,200axle,200 log that medley for 3 rounds thinking about taking it a little slower on the first 3, so I have some in the tank for reps with the log. axle deadlift 318,382,432x1 the bar was there from the overhead stuff, so why not. looking for 450 when fresh.....feel pretty positive i could get that. for the the deadlifting i've done in my strength travels, its still a crappy lift for me. |
