Bodybuilding / Re: Bodybuilding is so gay
« on: May 12, 2011, 12:56:29 am »
I got lots of respect for real body builders. The dedication is amazing. They sacrifice good food and a lot of lifestyle for a goal man. That dedication would go a long way toward making them a decent athlete if they wanted to be.

BUT real body builders are NOT the fags who go to the gym to do 3 types of bench, swing biep curls in the farking rack and leg extensions. I wouldn't swerve to miss those morons.

I also hate the whole perception of an athletic build in the western world. Big biceps + chesticles + mad abz = strength. Sh!t most of these guys couldn't squat with their wallet in their pocket or dead lift a dropped pancake. My gym was so full of these losers I built a power rack at home  :highfive:

 :rant:

lmao!!

ok well the 10 bananas did the trick, in terms of jump endurance.. took over 50 jumps in _40 minutes_, that's pretty insane for me.... had to rush and wanted to just get in tons of dunks, because i finally got to dunk in the FAU college basketball gym, shit was so nice.. they had some volleyball practice shit going on, and i just walked in and acted like i was supposed to be there lmao.

too bad i jumped lik shit for the most part.. just didn't have that extra gear again..

good news is i got my 45 degree hyper.... going to set it up soon and do TONS tonight, not going to squat today, going to see how i feel tomorrow with tons and tons of hyper's tonight.. hypers/calve raises.. should feel alot better than today i suspect.

here's some stills:





























i took alot of angles so you could see the gym hehe.



pulled myself up a little, looks cool though:






one thing that was fucking me up slightly was my hand, man i murdered it on the double rim yesterday.. shit hurts liek crazy, had to tape a finger.. anyway, pissed at how bad i jumped.

gotta get back on 3-4 sessions per day of squatting, blargh!! "adrenaline levels" are too low.

bw = 149
soreness = calves a little
aches/injuries = left achilles very slightly, left ham tendon sligtly,
fatigue = moderate
diet = 2*protein/water-drink + greentea+fiber, dunking + protein/gatorade-drink, medium caramel frappe + protein/water-drink, lots of running with dog, protein/water-drink, 3 eggs + TONSSSS of egg whites + 2 pieces of bread for sandwich portion + 1 biscotti, LTMP-SINGLES-VOLUME{pin-7-squat=385x1, calve-raises=225x15, plate-swings=45x5}, dog walk, LTMP-SINGLES-VOLUME{pin-7-squat=365x1, calve-raises=225x15, plate-swings=45x5, deadhangs-for-back, glute-bridges=100, standing-goodmorning-ish-iso}, protein/water-drink, 10 bananas + protein/water-drink + coconut-water, tons of tke-iso stuff, 2*protein/water-drink

sleep = 9 hours


tons of stretching throughout the day.

dog is getting good at juking, making running with dog sessions real fun.. i chase him for like 10 minutes, little interval sprints + change of direction.




whenever i write "3 eggs + TONNSS of egg whites" etc, this is what it is haha:

Do you still utilize high rep squats?

i believe any form of VERTICAL jumping is quad dominant, double or single..

take a look at some elite high jumpers, these jumps are an insane amount of quad.. look at how they plant stiff and their leg bends like a "bow" as they impact, this results in some serious quad contribution as they center their mass over their ankle and then take off.. quad/glute/calve is insane in any vertical jump, as you transition into horizontal displacement, quads become less important according to the ankle, and glute/ham contribution increases.

try some stiff leg ankle hops/stiff pogos and you'll get an idea of what i mean.. here's a high jumper performing some stiff leg pogos, look at his stiff landing and then his forward knee shift:

man, i've been backing off from the multi-day ltmp squatting for a while now, maybe 3 weeks.. i'm jumping pretty good but, i'm not as amp'd as i was when i was doing the 3-4x/day ltmp before.. i lost that "always amp'd up feeling".. every time i go multi-day squatting, heavy, i re-gain that feeling..

anyway, at this point in my performance, i'm not someone who can just lift heavy 2x/week and make gains, it's impossible, i'm already well past my natural limits, and i'm at a point where every inch is just extremely hard to gain.


"Now Cornell University neurobiologists, studying the adrenal glands of rats, have discovered how chronic stress cranks up the intensity of this adrenaline response. The key to this so-called molecular memory resides in a donut-shaped protein on the surface of cells that secrete adrenaline, the hormone also known as epinephrine."

for many people this style of training is not feasible, but for myself, it is, no excuses.. it is damn hard to do though, lifting becomes a job almost, a chore. As long as I stay relaxed on my heavy singles though, no psyching up/amping up, it should only have a positive effect on my cns.

anyway, i guess i can consider the last 3 weeks as a "deload" of sorts, time to get my adrenaline levels back up. I'm going to utilize ltmp-singles mostly, because ltmp-volume under my current diet is just too difficult.

the beauty of this kind of training is that it kicks in immediately..

peace

my 2nd dunk in that vid, the plant/runup is perfect (based on how i think i should jump), need to jump like that more often.. i think i have alot more in me at night, when it's cooler and i've been awake for a while HEH.. that might be why i got up SO good that night, also dunking in between a full court always gets me amp'd.
