Oops been a bit slack journalling. Anyways it's been training as usual:

Sunday - 3hrs Basketball, dunk attempts in between first few games. I feel I am getting so close to getting a basic one-hander off SLRVJ, maybe 2'' before I can throw it down clean rather than rattle them in or clang them off the back off the rim, very frustrating.

Week 2 - weights#1

Barbell step-up(12''): 2x6/leg@220lbs

Dumbbell calf raise: 2x20@72lbs

Jump squat: 2x12@55lbs

P.S I've also been doing upper-body stuff with these sessions, usually either two push/one pull or vice versa (e.g. bench/preacher/seated row when doing push press or bench/shoulder press/lat pull when doing cleans)

Barbell step-up, 18'': 2x6/leg@154lbs, 1x6/leg@200lbs (too easy even for moderate weight, gonna go up)

Jump squats: 3x15@45lbs

Unilat. calf raise: 2x25@55lbs

45o Hyper: 2x8@22lbs

My left quad felt a bit tight during the squats (prob because I haven't done squats as frequently over the last month), muscle felt like it was pinching a bit when I went down so didn't go too heavy.

Well I'm finally back home and hoping to get training back to normal. Since the last post I went to the gym once and just did everything I could really, rested for a few days. I tested my SLRVJ today and luckily despite all the disruptions I haven't lost anything, still getting ~34'' (~5'' up my hand on 10ft ring). SO I think the best thing for me would be to just continue with another cycle of what I was doing post-travel, 2x weights and 2x bounding for three weeks, and ramp up the intensity now I'm more familiar with it. 

Well i've been super busy this week, really struggled to train, been twice:

26/6 - crappy hotel gym

Bench machine: 3x10@80kgs (highest it would go lol)

Calf raise: 3x20@15kgs

Ghr:4x10@40kgs

29/6 - better gym with squat rack/bar

Clean: 6,6,5,5@55kgs

Squat: 1x8@130kgs, 1x6@135kgs, 1x6@140kgs

SL Calf raise: 3x15@32kgs

Jump squat:3x15@55kgs

Theres no real place I can do bounds, hurdles etc so I've just been doing jump rope and low level depth jumps in my hotel room. Not great but that's the way it is for a few weeks, could be worse...
