Extra Practice

 This Sunday, I worked with Coach Montgomery on my basketball skills, but after that i asked him for ways to improve my leg muscles. He gave me a pair of shoes called moon shoes which strengthen my legs and allow me to jump higher. Next,  I will continue to wear these every weekend to only further increase my leg muscles.

The worst pain

Yesterday I faced a pain even more painful than my injury two weeks ago. I have now had braces for two years and since my time is coming to get the removed they are making sure everything is ready for when they are taken off. The orthodontist doctor tightened the top brackets and added more rubber bands, causing such a strong pain I was unable to do anything else for the remainder of the day; and the pain is even carrying over to today. As soon as I feel better I will return back to building my leg muscles.

Road to Recovery

This week I have been feeling better since my leg injury. I have returned to track practice and even participated in the track meet on Tuesday, March 10. I am beginning to return to the gym and continue on my leg muscle building workouts, but it is a slow process. Due to the time away from my leg building exercises, I've actually re-progressed in my attempts, I'm back to barely touching the rim. However, I know that (as promised before) I'll return working twice as hard and be right back where I was or even farther in no time.

My Injurie

Last week on Saturday, the track team had a track meet. While running my event, near the end I pulled a muscle which caused me to have a recovery period of a week. This week I haven't been able to practice nor work on building my legs; but, as soon as I feel better I'll work twice as hard on strengthening my legs on my road to dunking.
