Ok, well that's up to you, ever tried it the other way the last couple of years though (same situation you're in now)?

Jumps looked back on track so I expect big things end of feb mang.

thanks man, i was surprised at how good some of those jumps were considering.. it definitely gave me some extra motivation for when i get healthy.. 40+ is in sight.

i had some intro where i talked on vid, prior to the dunks, but i took it out, i was coughing and shit it was funny.. voice basically gone, sounded real sick lol..

hoping i feel better tomorrow, plan on squatting for volume tomorrow night.

Ps. Last tip is jarred veggies are extremely cheap (I'm a persistent s.o.b., I know) and depending on the brand they're pretty good as well.



jarred veggies? you mean like canned veggies?

i plan to eat more eggs and more bananas so that's where my budget is now.. i'd like to start eating 3 eggs a day + 6-8 bananas.

peace man

WOW........ what a fight..

antonio silva vs fedor, everyone into mma go watch it.. i am actually starting to think antonio silva could win the entire grand prix, amazing.. he is SO strong, so huge, chin is granite, very skilled standing & on ground..

fedor hit him with bombs and it didn't do shit to him..

fedor gets the utmost respect though, how he survived round 2, no one will ever know.. survived full mount for like 2.5 minutes, survived two subs, survived crazy GNP.. what a monster.. too bad his eye BROKE or whatever the hell happened..

ill link the fight when it becomes avail on youtube, def worth watching.

ADARQ.ORG ADVANCED PROGRESS TRACKER

PROGRESS-TRACKER-ARTICLE: http://www.adarq.org/forum/performance-training-blog/the-2011-blueprint-better-gains-through-improved-clarity/

Purpose: To log data in a format that is easier to analyze (for ourselves and readers of our journals), so that training setbacks are avoided & progression is of primary importance, thus making our training as efficient & effective as possible.

How-to: Copy, Paste & modify the template to suit your needs: Include this post at the end of each of your training journal posts by clicking "modify" on your previous post, copy and paste it into the current post, and then add the new data.



IMPORTANT REMINDERS
- DO NOT squat without heels elevated, used to heels elevated, too much sitting back aggravates back injury
- DO NOT deadlift aggravates back injury
- DO NOT overstretch quads, aggravates ankle injury <-- happens every time, STOP IT
- as of 1/15/2011, don't do 325 x 5, instead, hit MSEM singles at 325+, stay 305-315 x 5+
- cut out milk, water + protein shakes from now on, more vitamin C, at least 6 bananas per day, more chicken/eggs
- utilize pin squats more, pin 6 work up then transition into pin 7

CURRENT GOALS
01/11/2011: PROJECT SSR7, get down to 150 or less as soon as possible.. maintain 315 x 5 half squat strength + keep a set of 20 maintained (245-265), fix right ankle, more interval conditioning, don't neglect my necessary exercises

SLaM's comment on my latest vid:



Yeah man, that guy is an asshole. 

You didn't survive a gang-related shooting to put up with this kind of shit.

lol

ya he's just dumb.. i've given him props many times for his dunking, even when he was talking mad shit to me.. my problem with him is his promotion of squatflex and how he said it got him his hops, and then in a video years prior, he claims all of his hops are natural, and he was jumping the same.. shit like that.. he's a scammer.

thnx for the comments on the vid man





SLaM's comment on my latest vid:



GOD I can't wait for Adarq to hit 45.

Have been getting a crucial ache in my knee (ITB, maybe plantaris), calf, Achilles, heel and top of my foot just before the third and fourth toes. There's a dirty trigger point (or 12) in there somewhere. I haven't had an ache like this in a while so I'm gonna get to the gym early tonight and do a shit ton of SMR and stretching and shit.

Plan for tomorrow is to walk a whole lot with my dad (he's doing a 60 mile hike over 4 days for his 60th birthday, I'm joining for day 3), so it would be nice to be free of lingering leg pain before I get into that.

damn your dad is beast.. sounds fun, hope you're health for it.


Great walk. I ended up joining my dad for the last 13 of his 16 miles yesterday. Beautiful day and I love spending time with him, so it was really nice.

Went to a Utah State University basketball game today against Fresno. Student section was AMAZING. The vibe in the spectrum feels unreal. I got to be part of this madness today... it's twice as epic when you're in the middle of it.

<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=44YUnOoye58" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=44YUnOoye58</a>

USU: 71
Fresno: 55

 :headbang:


They have some pretty good players too. Saw quite a few nice dunks. More on USU side of course.... because we're better.  :ninja:

they did that when you were there? pretty cool, really intense..

not to go off on a rant or anything, but, i find that kind of unity odd.. i've never had it.. i've never felt that kind of 'unity' with my high school, college, country, or anything.. i lack that "my bleh is better than yours", fill that in with country, school, team, anything.. it's odd.. like for team sports, in reality, i don't really support any team, i just support the players that I follow.. like I watch nba now for lebron/blake griffin and stuff like that.. i remember watching a playoff game with the spurs, and tim duncan got hurt, at the opponent's arena... and everyone was cheering him off the court, even though he was hurt/being helped out/into the locker room.. it's odd, i genetically seem to lack a 'blind support' for some kind of state or organization confined to some borders etc.

dno, weird rant, but videos like that make me think about it..

a good example of it would be the pacers/detroit pistons incident, where those home fans were just going apeshit, then finally someone throws a drink on artest... to me that's just unfathomable.. that's such a deep loyalty to a team/franchise that doesn't truly have any loyalty to you, odd.

about it. mad i missed 765. not enough speed i guess. or low back is overcooked.

Hey man, I couldn't lift 765 at the gym either so don't feel bad.

hahahahah

whatup man


Hey everybody, first off a little about me.
I'm 21/M 5'9" wit shoes 148 lbs, around 9% body fat.
Squat 160 (5 reps), Deadlift 185 (5 reps), Bench Press 185 (1repmax)

definitely need to get alot stronger



Quote
7'0" reach (short arms) and a 33" max 2 feet vert, 36" max 1 foot vert (basically just touching rim).

you sure only 7'0 reach? that's EXTREMELY short for 5'9... that's one arm or two? regardless, very low reach that'd be some very short arms.

if that's your true reach then those are some nice vert numbers.

regardless of your actual vert, if you are just touching rim, barely, you're going to want around 8 inches over to land that first dunk

I have been totally in love with and obsessed with basketball since I was in middle school.  I'm a scoring guard, who is usually the player with the quickest 1st step on the court 9 times out of 10.  Since moving to campus at my university, and having free access to a weight room and basketball courts all the time, I have decided to revitalize my goal of dunking.  I have literally been obsessed with being able to dunk for the past few months and have done extensive research online and such.  As I join this forum I hope I will gain the knowledge on how to do just that from the members and Adarqui himself. 

awesome man, sounds like you have pretty good quickness.. will check your journal tomorrow probably, saw you posted one.

peace man

Hi everyone

This is pjtvs. I was a member of TVS. I checked that but it seems pretty dead...
So i decided to come to this site.

sup man i remember u.



Quote
I am a belgian 21yo, 6ft tall, about 155-160lbs.
I used to be in basketball but then i quit that to go train for the 400m. That unfortunately did not work out very well. There were injuries but also the fact that i cannot see my trainer for months in a row is not a good thing at all.

sucks ;/

400m is tough to do without a 'group' + coach.


Quote
So i decided to pick up what i always loved: training for speed/power/strength and mainly vertical jump!

nice!


Quote
I don't have any stats right now. I am in mediocre shape, have been way better.

I am in my 4th year of physiotherapy at Leuven university so i know a thing or two about anatomy and sports training in general. After i finish my 5th year, i might start starting sports at the university as well.

really cool man, physio brings in the money but sport training (S&C) is always more fun to me, that's why i went that route.



Quote
I will start up a journal in which i will share my training and post up some vids!

Greetings

Pjtvs

awesome man can't wait to see that progress.
