-I'm now able to get the rim after a full season of actual basketball

-any lift can be dangerous if done incorrectly. learn proper form and use lower weights until you have your form perfect.

-linear periodization is basically for beginners and since i'm starting again after a 6 month layoff, i'm giving it a try. it's basically that u find out your one rep max and then start your first workout doing 3 sets of 12 at 65% of your max. the next part of the program (either a week or 2 in my case) you move up to 70 or 65%) here's a link with some info. you can check google for more info:
Linear Periodization

-check out the adams diet threads in the diet section here. i'm not doing it myself and i haven't really read it in detail, but its basically, from what i've heard, just a straight-forward guide to clean eating.

i'll go look up the commandments.
