I have once again fallen behind. Here's what I've been meaning to post:

• Dick Hartzell Jump Stretch bands tutorials. Great stuff, knew there was a DVD, had no idea these were online.
• Also, good article on bands.
• Great jump rope routine. « via RT forums »
• Mark's Daily Apple: Simple, But Not Easy.
• The Science of Sport: Muscle Cramps Part I. Very interesting, I'll definitely be back for the rest of the series. « via SttB »
• These Crossfit WOD posts have links to Rob Miller's muscle-up tutorial videos: part 1, part 2, and part 3. Very helpful. I'd like to acquire the muscle-up and the pistol this winter.

Jim at Beast Skills has done it again: fantastic muscle-up tutorial. Make sure you not only watch his embedded video of Andreas Aguilar at the 1991 World Professional Gymnastics Championships on the rings, make sure you watch all the way to the dismount.

• Jon Gilson of Again Faster attended a USA Track and Field Coaching Certification and came away with some great notes on general athletic performance and sprinting tips and techniques.
• CrossFit Oakland has a very helpful post on muscle-ups. The photos are good, but the video of progression exercises (link therein) for kids is terrific.
• I took for granted that multiple sets were a necessity for strength training, but apparently that's debatable. Clarence Bass has two posts on the subject. The first seems geared towards bodybuilding, but the second references all kinds of generally applicable evidence. Listen to your body. (thanks Jim O.)

A muscle-up tutorial on YouTube. I'd like to notch that skill, but it gives me elbow pain. I expect to get it eventually, though. « via RT »
