It's completely unconscious, I never realized it until this video. I'm going to do another one but I'm afraid if I think don't do this/do this the jump itself will suffer horribly. Oh well, going to try anyways.

standing vert jumps. On a good CNS day I can grab it with both and I noticed watching this I take a little hop as I drop down.  Never knew I did that. :/ So I guess its not technically a SVJ but a weird hop jump thing. :D

Well, shit. It definitely didn't go long enough to get any decent dunks but there's maybe a handful of ok jumps that were misses and some weak dunks. I'm going to attempt to edit it....this should be interesting lol

Gahhhhhh! So pissed off right now. Went to the gym at 6am on 4 hours of sleep to get a conditioning/shooting workout in, no energy, very bleh. Pushed through it and said what the hell, I'll video the last 20 mins or so on my phone. Setup a makeshift little mount and started recording. Was definitely missing a few inches of vert (CNS just wasn't 100%, too sleepy lol) and finally got a few decent dunks in. Had maybe 5 or 6 'good' jumps rest were subpar.  Go to check the phone and it says 'out of memory' and only recorded about 8 mins. SMH. Going to see if anything decent is in there.  Anyone know of some decent, simple editing software?

Took Friday and Saturday off from lifting, CNS was trashed after Sun-Thurs junk and I had to do some major surgery on one of the cars. SMH.

Thanks LBSS!!

Belated updates forthcoming....

Tues Aug 13 2012

bw: 172-174lbs
Good energy and focus, no injuries.

Dynamic warmup + jumps

deficit deads:
225×5 275×1 315×1 345×1, 345×1 315×5 ×5, 315×3 225×5. Almost to 3 sets of 315. First 345 is getting easier, second is still a challenge.

Jump squats:
50lb x3, ×3, bw×3

Ham curls:
120lb x6, x6, ×6.

Chest/tricep/core stability circuits and cooled off with some shooting and jumps. I always seem to jump easier on deadlift day, had some decent jumps. Workout gets a 7/10.

Wed:
Went to the physical therapist. He says I have some displaced fluid from the wreck in January and its causing some spasms. They did some tissue work and advised me on some prehab to do. Back felt pretty good afterward. I go back next Wed for a checkup/more work.

Since I felt good I went and played some...ended up being 3 hours. Played well tho, had two fastbreak dunks and lots between games.

Annnnnnd this morning I went and did some conditioning and drills for an hour, legs were dead from 4 days of lifting/hooping but still jumped ok.

So that catches me up. :)

Mon Aug 12 2013

BW at 172-175lbs.
Knee feels much better after icing, don't think I got a good warmup Sunday night and that contributed to the knee soreness/bugging I felt.
Energy and focus were very good tonight, 8/10 on both.

Dynamic warmup + jumps

Banded squats:
225x5 275x1 315x1 375x1, 375x1 325x5 325x4, 325x4 275x5. The 375 banded is a  :personal-record:  :headbang: Second 375 wasn't quite parallel :/. Second and third set of 325 I felt rep 4 really slow down, didn't want a grinding fifth.

Calf raise (on leg press):
590lbs x8. Too easy now. 610lbs x8, x8. Much better, surprising what 20lbs does, reps 7-8 on 2nd set were brutal. :)

Hypers:
10lbs x10, x10, x10. Definitely felt it in lower back, will add weight slowly.

Did some lightweight lunges for a little unilateral work along with my normal back/bicep/heavy core work. Cooled off shooting some, legs are jelly, dunk attempts are super weak. Ah well. Try again tomorrow.  Workout gets a 9/10. Great session.

Ehhh. Idk, but we'll see what Scoob says later. My money is still on ~14%.

I maintain this because if I'm wrong and hes already 10% then it'll be harder for me to go down further BF% wise.  lol

Stop eating clean guys we all need beer guts!!!!

Lol! Pic pic pic!!!

Idk about that, by most calculators I'm around 12% and my abs are decently visible without flexing. I don't see any definition in scoobs midsection. Just my opinion of course but I think he definitely has a few inches to gain dropping BF%.
