- Sprained an ankle in November, and tried to avoid dunk practice/etc. for several weeks.
- Ate and drank too much over the holidays, and had my weight balloon to 236 pounds!
- Got a FitBit for Xmas, and have been using it religiously to tracking my progress back toward my weight and general fitness goals.
- Haven't attempted as many dunks in 2016, mainly because the practice rims at the facility I play at once/week were changed (and now have "no dunking" signs on all of the backboards)
Progress in 2016 so far:
- I've dropped 12 pounds in about 12 weeks! (236 back down to 224)
- My vertical is coming back... I'd lost probably 4-5 inches from my peaks of last year, but I'm getting close to where I was.
- I'm only about 7 months from the big 4-0. That is now my one and only goal for this year: DUNK AT AGE 40.
I will try to post more frequent updates as I progress toward my 40th birthday. I still haven't found too many people out there dunking in their 40's, which inspires me to keep going an be somewhat unique in my goal.
