Lots of Cleans and Aaron's a Jerk

Booooriiiing

Just training. You?

Crack Kills

Another look into some of the prep work I do over the weekends.  Last year I wanted to "bulk" and I sure did.  It wasn't near as clean as I had intended, and I ended up with a lot of extra weight that wasn't really doing anything.  This off-season I really cleaned up my diet, and cut back on the booze.  I still weigh around 250, but the ratio of muscle to fat has changed.  I feel a lot lighter now, at the same weight, and hopefully with this explosive lifting block coming up, I can get fast.

GoPro vs GoSlo

Got a new piece of equipment to help track and measure all the things I'm doing wrong.  First outing was this afternoon.  Some pretty awesome features with the GoPro Hero 3.  I can view what it's recording through my phone, so I can make sure my fat ass belly is filmed perfectly in 1080 with a 170 degree lens.  Enjoy. 

Yes, I am using two pillows.

back to throwing...back to sucking.

Moving Fast Takes a Long Time

The Worst Hammer Thrower in the World - Vol. V

Put the blades back on after a season without them. Took it nice and easy, only cranked the speed up to about 80% for the last couple of throws.

The Wind Blows

First and Worst

First throwing day of the year. Threw stones and a little bit of 28 WFD. Practice was interrupted by an impromptu kids' clinic. Some of the neighborhood kids were curious what I was doing, so I let them all have a go and explained the sport as best I could. Makes me very happy to cultivate tiny fans for the sport.

Slow, and my timing is out of whack, but day 1 is in the books. Stands to 37'-6", glide to 40'-6". WFD was cut short so I only lobbed it out to 57' today. All day I never pushed the speed above 75-80%
