 :ibjumping:

whoop.. i always jump better at night, but for one really important reason: it's not as damn hot.. 94+ degrees earlier today when i dunked, with crazy wind..... like 85 or so tonight with absolutely no wind...

man i landed some really hard dunks, curious to see the stills.

oh ya, i like how there's alot of people around too, give me something to take my mind off dunking temporarily and just relax a bit more, so i can focus better for each dunk.

Very interesting. I'll start using my powerjumper again and see what happens. Will probably limit it's use to low box depth jumps and two-leg bounds and broad jumps, since in a one-leg bound, because one leg is flexed, it won't have any effect (or even worse - make the bound imbalanced).

Good luck! But I don't expect my gains were typical. I had developed a humongous deficit. Even though I kept jumping, I was focused on squatting more and getting bigger. People who have been training with more balance probably won't get the drastic results I did, or at least not as quickly. Would have thought a 20%+ increase in jump height would have taken months, not weeks. Of course, now they really seem to be slowing down. But I can't complain that much because I'm a lot further ahead right now than I thought I'd be at this point. I even managed to dunk a small soccer ball with a two-step run on a 9'10" rim yesterday! First time dunking anything. Even though it's a couple inches short of official height and it's a smaller ball, I'm still very happy. I could barely touch a 9'10 rim a couple months ago, even in shoes and with a run up.

nice! good gains man

thanks Andrew, i will see if i can post some videos of me jumping/doing squat. but i am young so i didn't start doing weighted-squat, so do body-weight squat count?

np.. sure bodyweight squat can count but, it's just going to show us some of your mobility issues more than anything.. which is still good to get feedback on.. if you don't want to do intense "weighted squatting", just incorporate dumbell squats.. use light db's and progress the weight every 2 weeks (2.5-5lb each dumbell increase), it would be better than simply bodyweight squatting and would prepare you better for eventually transitioning into barbell squatting.

steppin it up bro nice to see!

You think the depth drops are a good priming exercise for the day before?

thanks man, and ya, seems like it.. i mean, legs felt crazy bouncy day after the first session.. i bet ill fly today.. if you look at my depth JUMP graphs etc in the instant rfd part 1 article, i talk about using high volume dJ's to get that stim, but high volume dj's should work similar.. im liking them better since it's just the eccentric/iso... but ya my legs feel crazy right now, 70 in a row is a pretty significant stimulus.

Well i was really gaining nicely squatting but i had to do other lifts because i got a tattoo right where the bar rests. Its amazing how much easier it is to stack weight on eating higher carbs.

oo cool what kind of tat u get?

Darq have you measured your height since training just wondering cuz i get measured 5'9.5 and i used to consistenly get 5'10.5

? i dno i measured it in shoes like 6+ months ago... 6'1 in shoes, measured reach (single arm) like ~3 months ago, 95.. havnt really shrunk or anything.. at one point, when i hadn't been lifting, i did get a taller measurement, i was like 6'2, that was 12+ months ago, when i hadn't lifted for 8+ months.. perhaps the heavy squatting every day has caused me to shrink an inch, no idea though, cold have just been a bad measurement.

Hey guys, so many people say that correct jump form is very important, and the correct squat form is important. but what are the correct forms for them? what is a correct jump form and a correct squat form???
also is the correct squat form necessary for body-weight squat?

well, i could post tons of videos to try and show you the various forms of squat/single+double leg jumps etc, but, it would be better if you posted your form on each exercise, then we could tell you what you'd need to improve specific to YOUR body/build etc..

jump/squat form depend alot on how you are built.. so for a jump vid, show the full runup & of course jump, for squat vid, you should show a good side angle which gets everything in the shot.

in the end it's always more beneficial to see your form and give you cues/aspects of it to fix, rather than showing you perfect form of jumpers/exercises and just saying 'do it like that'.. if you want to see perfect form, look at olympic level high jumpers/elite dunkers for single leg (& elite dunkers for double leg) - ie TFB/olympic athletes, for perfect deep/front squatting look at olympic weightlifters.
