scoob.. stop thinking and just get it done. jump to another program after you get to 365 8x5sets. let's see if you are as dedicated as you say you are. 

there's no such thing as too much quads for the vertical jump. nobody here will tell you that a 365x10-12RM is not going to benefit your jump.

^ worth the price. i got mine for $99 when they were on sale. currently waiting for the $159 white/black adistar to go down to $99 too.

i will still find a way to fix the insoles of the romaloes so they 'feel' the same as the adidas.. but for now, its ironworks for me for the squats. makes everything so much more comfortable.

* i was right about the shoes. the adidas ironworks work best for me. did 405x1 again without much effort.. will get 425x1 this afternoon after this strong post workout meal and a quick nap. il aim for 425x1 (2.5BW) 1-2x per week. can't believe i just assumed that doing all these calf raises weakened my lowered back.. it was the romaleos all these time. looking at the bright side - i'd probably  burn out faster doing 405-425 multiple times a week.

after my pause at the bottom, to really get my torso upright - i make sure that my chest faces to the front while i really shove my hips forward (while unbending my quads to get up).

tires looking boss there..

hey buddy.. how much do you squat?

245-45-18s... :headbang:

* i'm surprised that my left rear delt is still not fully recovered. its not being strained while i'm doing my dips. i was actually feeling very strong with these deep full ROM BW dips. i could have done 30reps again but learning from my previous right small inner chest muscle strain from doing 30rep dips not too long ago, better stop at 20 or whatever rep where im still not completely fatigued.

* used my addidas ironworks2 instead of the romaleos and i probably stressed my back more than i had too with the nikes because that little extra heel of the romaleos appears to be  disadvantageous with my squat form.
* i got 365-385 without much effort and got up to 405.. this is on a saturday after a work night - the weakest day of the week for me. at a BW of 168-170, repeatable paused rep of 405-425 max is an improvement.

I was spending quite a bit of time in Jackwood website these day...He had mentioned a few times how the Portable +
$10 USD
but the final or the first question is.... Is this equipment as worthy as jackw suggested... or another waste of $ & time product..

"the search for the perfect jumping program".. is very strong in this one. again.  :wowthatwasnutswtf:

do yourself a favor scoob.. if you can grid 365x1.. use 300lb after a good ramping warmup and rep that working weight - 300lb 40 times in a workout.

i don't care how you do it.. 10x4 sets, 8x5sets, 6x6sets (+4x1set)...  do it twice a week. stick to it until you do the same 40 total reps with 345-365lbs. everything else you will do is a waste of time.

so i have to force myself to acknowledge and accept that any weight gain comes with at least a little extra fat -- unless you're on drugs there's no way weight gain is purely lean.


It's more influenced by where you are in your training than whether or not you are on drugs.  But, I'll agree that your probably advanced enough and lean enough that the caloric surplus necessary to add muscle will also add a bit of fat tissue.  However, I still think that you are at a point where if you are careful you can maintain or even lower your bodyfat as you add muscle to your frame (ie. the mirror test should be getting better as you get stronger). 

i eat fish most of the time and it worked well for bodycomposition.  grilled salmon/salmon belly.. and sardines to change things up. high caffeine also.

* calf raises - back up set of 315 is not cutting it anymore. will go with 365s now. 405x40 top set is just right. anything over and i will compromise the top ROM holds.
* since my rear delts are still busted, i might i as well do more dips.

god damn it, i'm hanging out on the bottom edge of the 175-180 range and not even close to 200kg. must continue pushing squat and gaining fats. what was the heaviest you ever got to?

i've been at low 190s / high 180s at some point. mostly at the high 170s/low 180s when i had my strongest squats. there was time in my training that i was able to single 440lb daily for almost a week - those were not paused reps but i still consider it my strongest. 400-410-420-430-440x1 ramping for consecutive days.

Man i'm so jealous how you have reached a point in your training where your strength is good enough and you can afford to specialise training on growing your calves!

if im not squatting 400s, i might as well calf raise it.. need something to keep me occupied while i give my quads some rest days.
after i stall my calves - which probably won't happen any time soon, ill build more shoulders with the dumbell press. i like those too.


YOU ARE GETTING WEAK, BRO. WEAK.


i'l get my squat strong again.. (200kg) at some point if i feel like getting into the 175-180BW again. i'm liking this twig weight. makes jumping (and landing) a lot easier.

Um.. I have no idea what i am doing... is Friday.. let's rest up.. and prepare for next week.

squat while you are figuring out your next "thing". your squat tonnage / total reps is too low. aim for at least 40 reps with your working weight.
