Article & Video Discussion / Vertical Jump Work 5 days a week?
« on: October 30, 2013, 12:25:05 am »
This might sound crazy but I'm thinking of doing vertical jump work 5 days a week. My running vertical is 29 inches and standing is 26 inches and can grab rim now. I was currently doing Jump Manual and it does work very well but i had a question that was bugging me.
My plan was to do
heavy leg work on mondays (squat, deadlift, lunges, calf raises, etc)  :ibsquatting:
a short session of plyometrics on tuesday (depth jumps, sprints, box jumps),  :ibjumping:
Wednesday (light jump rope)
Thursday-Plyometrics (same thing as tuesday)
Friday-Heavy Leg Work (squat, deadlift, lunges, calf raises, etc)


I would do this for three weeks adn take a deload week. I would be getting proper sleep and be eating alot. I am only 16 going on 17 soon (november 19th) so I think id be able to handle it, I know it is probably "overtraining" but my capcity for workload is a little higher than average. The only problem I see with this is the risk of injury and the same gains as doing it 2 days a week.

What do you guys think about this? Do you think I would see good results if I did this for 3 weeks?

ADARQ & LanceSTS - Q&A / Improving starting power from dead hang pullups
« on: August 13, 2011, 07:26:49 am »
Hey guys,
i have been doing a lot of bodyweight stuf and my 1/2 medium rom pullups from the standing position is 2 but when i try doing dead hang pullups i cant seems to get up at all and end up just hanging there.

i was wondering i know i can keep increasing my 1/2 rom pullups, but do you guys have any tips or exercises to have more starting power when doing dead hand pullups?

thanks again

1) limit the repetitions to five and fewer;
2) increase the rest intervals between sets to a duration of three to five minutes;
3) limit the number of sets to two;
4) pause and relax between reps;
5) do not practice a lift more than five times a week.

What do you guys think? he explains each point individually so ill update that info if you guys want.
