Mini with metro north ppl in Stamford. I played reasonably well, esp on defense, but threw a lot of turns. I also struggled with fitness, esp on long multi-turn points.

Two days of ultimate in beautiful Scotia, NY. We lost in semis, as usual. The hand-crafted Sparks didn’t help.
4 hours of practice. High heat, low numbers. We practiced moving the disc to the breakside by punishing 4 consequetive throws on the open side with a turnover. Our offense looked significantly better with this one minor, forced tweak. However, I did not play well. I had several bad turns and got quite tired. On the last points, my quad crampted up and I dropped out.
A weekend in Boston with Metro North 2017. I’m in the worst shape ever going into a season, with several nagging injuries. Despite that, I still played pretty well. My two turns were both poor-decision, poor-execution hucks. I also had some mistakes on D, getting beat badly a few times. On the upside, I had 3 Ds including a fall-over handblock on the mark, I threw some nice throws and hucks, and my legs felt ok at the end of Sunday. Even running the nine 40s at the end (one for each OB pull all weekend) felt pretty good.
Strained my back squatting on Saturday, so I took a few days off and started light again. I think I’m squatting too low and losing proper form at the bottom. Gotta stretch more and be more careful.
Shoulder is finally feeling good enough to bench (just the bar).
Ross dragged me outside for throwing and 5x20secs of 5yd shuffles. Good man.
