whats going on. 3rd reboot of this journal but im getting after it. Will no long be on a ship by the end of a year and will have much more consistency in my routine.
I have been a poster off and on for a long time (2010 or before) and a inconsistent progress logger. I NEED to get back to and defeat all my previous PRS and reach a physical fitness level and athleticism level i have never reached. I am 28 but when i started vert training (18 or even earlier on the old forums terminal vertical i think or even other ones plus db hammer) i was 175 pounds or so and reached some decent numbers for being 5 10 and a half about 7 6 reach (or maybe 7 7)
Former PRS I wish to beat in the next year
-Weight (which will aid almost every other goal) 175! Prob my biggest struggle. Goal is 2 pounds a week slow and keep most of muscle mass
-Running Vert 34.5 (10 4.5 touch) "weak dunks"
Standing 30 inch
Squat at parallel 345 x 4
BSS 100s for 6-8 reps
Bench Press 315 for 6 reps
Pullups deadhang 18
1.5 mile time 9:24

http://www.adarq.org/quitters-deserters/my-basic-journal/http://www.adarq.org/progress-journals-experimental-routines/jump-really-high(11-feet)-and-get-really-strongcut/Thats all history im now 28 and weigh about 208. I have been working out but pretty much only upper body and started to throw in a little BSS and low volume plyos. Id say im severly undertrained vertical jump wise. The best way i believe to move forward is to evaluate where i faltered before and after reflection and reading old logs this is what i come up with:
- consistency- this is number 1 for sure, i worked soemtimes for months sometimes for years somedays for days (ouch ) but never pto ut it all together and stayed true to the game plan. This has to change.
-Body fat- I was somewhat lean when i started but never where i needed to be to achieve a great vertical jump. waist is way too big right now.
- Strength ratio- I had somewhat strong legs but was not developed to where i needed to be repping big weight kingfish style. Somewhat tangent to body fat. when i can rep 405 and BSS with 100s for reps then i can reevaluate..
- Jumping- I am a slow strong two foot approach jumper. Its not pretty or refined. Losing weight will help. Coming from an untrained state lots of low level jumps and then actual verticals will help
Recovery plus sleep consistency
Pushing the limits- overtraining is bad. Not going hard in the paint is unexcusable.
Secondary
- Mobility (YOGA), flexiblity, focus too much on upper body mass, overthinking
