Summer training

2008-07-29T11:09:00+00:00

I remember being fascinated reading an interview with Michael Jordan a few years ago. It was after one of the championship seasons, and he was talking about how he was preparing for the next season. He said he was getting older, and wanted to loose some weight before the next season, to avoid injury and stay explosive.

I know exactly how he feels. I need to loose some weight as well, to avoid injury and … get explosive (if I’m lucky).

Except, he was going to do it by training less to reduce muscle mass. I need to loose that other kind of body mass, and should probably be training more. Which means actually getting of my ass and working up a sweat.

So last night I went to one of the local courts and practiced some by myself. Being alone on a basketball court can be very meditative, especially on a beautiful summer evening.

Feed problems resolved

2007-12-03T21:33:00+00:00

If you tried subscribing to any of my feeds, you were probably disapppinted. Turns out I forgot to change a few settings, and they were pointing … nowhere. It’s all been fixed now though, so these should all work now:

Basketball drills: http://feeds.feedburner.com/basketballdrills
Basketball blog: http://feeds.feedburner.com/basketballblog
Personal blog: http://feeds.feedburner.com/degerstrom

I might add feeds for comments and other stuff, but let’s see how things go first.

Relaunch, at last

2007-12-02T21:55:00+00:00

You would not believe how long this has taken… But finally, finally I got a new version of the site done. I’ll tell you all about how this is done and why it’s taken so long, but for now I’ll just enjoy the fact that the site is launched.

(I’m keeping this brief, because it’s after 5 in the morning, and I’ll try to get an hour sleep before I have to get up again.)
