Two very good reads came across my desktop this week. First up is Purposeful Walking by Jim Parinella. It's Ultimate-specific, but I think has cross-sport value, as we all need to manipulate our opponents one way or another. Next up is Turning It, a very interesting read on the importance of training turning, acceleration, and lateral power rather than straight-line speed. Again, sport-specific (football), but with broad applicability (Ultimate players, depending on role, have more opportunities to get up to top speed, so don't neglect that part of your training, though).
Hi
I'm Jim Biancolo, and this is stuff I found interesting that I thought you might like too. Here are some of my favorites if you want to start there. Mostly I link to other people, but some stuff is mine, like:
- My AutoHotkey scripts, including one for universal AutoCorrect.
- A list of my favorite action scenes.
- A bunch of movies I liked that are available to watch instantly on Netflix.
- Fun with Bic pens: the Earth Pen and the Fridge Pen.
- My very own oatmeal recipes that sound totally gross but are actually good.
Spillover
I am loving Instapaper, and use if to sock away stuff to read. Here are a bunch of articles I read recently and liked.
