Bum knee

Yo!

I haven't written in ages! I'm still working out and shreddin'. I'm struggling though. My left knee's been bothering me since Paris. I'll go see a specialist soon because I can't keep going on like this until July.

I had a fun session with Sebastien last week. It was the second we kicked ...

Knee

So...

Fusion

I wrote the whole "How to hit fusion" thing. I took about 30 minutes and then my computer crashed. I don't feel like doing it again.

Knee

It's the first time that one of my joints hurts for more than a few days. I tried to shred twice since Paris and I've been denied twice. I still ...

Mind game

Mind game...

I tried to kick today. I warmed up on a stationnary bike for about 20 minutes and then stretched a lot... but my knee still hurts. Since footbag is 50% practice and 50% thinking I worked on my routine at home. Trying to figure out ways to improve style and difficulty while reducing ...

Back

I'm back!

Hello again everyone! I am back. I took some time off to nurse a few injuries... and play xbox! :oops:

Dropless!

I was in Paris last week-end and I participated in the local tournament. I hit a dropless routine in the first round. That was good. I sucked in finals though.

Decision ...

Stood up!

Date...

I had a date with Nic Laroche today and I was stood up! He never showed up! So I ended up shredding by myself.

I really need to shred better when I'm tired. I need to shred more often, longer sessions. My level of play drastically drops after about 30 minutes of shredding alone.

I had a ...

Good times

Good times...

Yes... We had a fun time in Toronto. For all of you who kept me up all night long all week-end long rest assured. I feel much better and rested right now.

I also did great on my exam this morning. So everything is all right.

Killer session...

Good session today. I dropped the last ...

Down with the sickness

Hello!

THIS IS SICK!!!

The G.L.A. Shred Session was sick indeed. So was I! Lots of new shredders. Seeing the new Ontario scene really pumped me up! I have to study for my exam tomorrow and then I'll be shredding again.

I got my ass kicked in the shred30. It shouldn't have happened even though I ...

Sick...

Dudes!

I ended up not shredding yesterday because I had a fever! It's ironic that I was writing about how not to get sick right before a tournament a few days ago.

I'm heading to Toronto right now. I'm flying! It will be the shortest trip to a tournament ever - 1 hour. The longest trip? 100 hours ...

Sleep...

I woke up a a little too late for school this morning. I usually wake up at 6:30. I woke up at 12:30. I guess I'll shred so at least I'll feel like I did something worthwile today.

Food!

Day off...

Yesterday was a day off. I iced my shins for an hour or so and only worked out and stretched for about 30 minutes at home. It feels good. My left shin still hurts when I walk though so I might not shred today. We'll see after more ice and a few pain-killer pills.

Partying...

I have so ...

Yo!

I'll tell you why people don't show up at NDA - or rather why I don't show up.

1- Nobody shows up!!! :roll:
2- The floor really sucks.

A normal human being NEEDS to be baby-sitted through anything that demands a little effort (ie: going to NDA or another session). For 3 years, I called every ...

Relaxation...

Paradox...

I did something I hadn't done in a while yesterday. I was relaxed but still was able to hit all the move I wanted. It's a fine line between being relaxed and being sloppy or slow. You still have to have some "Umpf!" in your moves. When I want to shred effortlessly i try to crank my ...

Dropless!

I didn't hit a dropless routine yesterday. Very disapointing. I wasn't even close.

I did have some good shred scores though. My best run was:
108 adds
31 contacts
30 uniques
3.48 ratio
TOTAL SCORE: 212!

Woohoo! Hopefully I'll do a few more of these before this week-end.

Will...

Will...

Sometimes all it takes is the will to do what you want to do. No matter how much it hurts and how tired I am I will hit a dropless routine and a dropless shred30 today.

Yeah! Baby! I can feel it. Dropless!

Keep it up!

Yo!

I think what all you guys are doing/trying to do for Canadian Shred is great. I'm tied up right now so I can't really help you guys with the different projects but... Keep it up!

I'll be done with school (programming) before the end of the year. Maybe then I'll be able to volunteer and help ...

Split up!

Yo!

I live in Hochelaga close to Eli and Caro's. Nic lives downtown. James lives in the west Island. Marc lives in Laval. Seb lives in St-Leonard. Ianek and Kolo live in Verdun. No wonder the Montreal scene's split up.

What we need is someone calling everybody else to pump them up and tell them to ...

Good news. Bad news.

Good news! My right shin splints is less painful now!
Bad news! My left shin splints is more painful now!

I've given up being completely healthy.

Today's session was ok. The length of my shred sessions is increasing. That's a good sign. I feel rested more quickly after a long string and I have ...

Training...

Hello!

[quote="qphox"]have you noticed improvement on your average string length since you began working your cardio? When you do cardio stuff, do yuo just go for 45 minutes, or do you do interval training?

If you shred as often as you normally would and then work-out on top of that, I would say ...

The real thing...

My actual level of play...

I have a tendency to think that my abilities are determined by my best ever string. That is so not true. My level of play is my average string. It hit me really hard today. I couldn't do shit so I went back to the basics and still couldn't do anything!

I did impress ...

Yo!

I liked playing with you at CP even better though. i think you have really good ps whirls, but i only saw like 2 at CP.

Thanks...

Thank you David for the praise. I'll try to do more of that stuff. P.S.Whirls are my bread and butter. I don't really need to practice them that much so ...
