cya!

Hey all. Cool site.

thanks man, welcome to the forum!

I'm from Brisbane in Queensland, Australia. I'm a beach volleyball player and train to improve my vertical out of sand primarily. I play outside left hitter. Big wind up, try to kill some dudes  

hah sounds fun.

I used to go to a commercial gym but got sick of bro's tying up the power rack for curling. So I went to night school, learnt to weld and built myself a rack at home. Now I have enough gear to do all my workouts at home. No waiting. I'll post some pics shortly.

really nice, i trained at home until recently, i actually like being in a commercial gym right now, hot chicks, 24 hour access, basketball court, hahaha.. but ya someone was doing curls in squat rack today so i used the half rack.. funny

I'm 5'9" and 92kg. No idea what my vert is but its heaps better than a year ago. I've squatted 160kg x 1, 145kg x 3 (low bar athletic stance, past paralell) and deadlifted 180kg x 3 (never done a 1rm). Just finished a vertical jump bible intermediate program and freestyling for a week while I decide whether to bulk or cut next. I'm carrying a bit of extra fat from bulking since November. Not serious fat, but I was always a chubby kid.

nice lifting man.. at 5'9, from the sounds of it you get up pretty good, based on the volleyball description.. 92kg at 5'9 is pretty big, lean up & maintain strength, you should be flying.

I have a few specific questions about jump training that I'll put up in the relevant sections. Look forward to sharing the love with you all  

cool man!

EDIT - link to my home made power rack build

damn that's pretty beast.. great work on that.





peace man, nice intro, aussies always come correct it seems... it's interesting.

duuuuuuuuude... if you want more hips you should be semi-sumo or sumo'n.. the end.. no reason someone with your lanky ass legs should be pulling conventional, unless you want lots of low back contribution.

semi sumo it..

pc

pics from dunk session on previous page.. had some nice dunks ;d

staph infection coming back (5 red lumps under right armpit), feel pretty sick, very happy about how i jumped considering...... and no caffeine either.. how i jumped this good under these conditions is pretty amazing.. once im healthy it's over.

voice is gone, can't talk after training.. taste buds gone..

left nut was hurting when i started warming up for dunk session, that was annoying and weird.. havnt had that in a while..

feel sicker after training than before.




2/11/2011

bw = 153

soreness = none

aches/injuries = where do i start, staph infection is back, feel sick, left nut hurting during bball warmup, left achilles tweaky only a few times throughout the day, slight headache.. legs felt good though, so did shoulder.. left knee bugged out a little during squatting.

fatigue = moderate

diet = pollo tropical quarter chicken white, probiotic + vit C drink, 3 eggs + 3 pieces of cheese + 2 bananas + green tea, training + protein/water-drink + vit-C-drink, protein/water-drink + vit-C-drink + 2 bananas, vit-C-drink + chicken & sausage gumbo chunky soup + 2 bananas




workout #1A: bball work + dunks (mostly dunk attempts, nice 15-20min warmup though)
- pics on previosu page
- will probably make a small mix tomorrow
- jumped pretty good considering.. keeps me hopeful/motivated


workout #1B: strunf
- half squat: 295 x 5 <- a bit of fatigue from dunk session
- 1-arm db row: 65 lb x 10 <-- one set hah
- S1: 45deg hyper: BW + 25 lb @ 30, 30, 30
- S1: stiff arm plate swings: 45 lb @ 10, 10, 10,



both sides of hips feeling a little achy, stretch them out and stretched out adductors.

tomorrow i might train again depending on how i feel.. tomorrow would be volume squatting (275 @ ? x 10) + db bench.

peace out






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

ONE LINERS WITH EVERYTHING IN THEM
- OPTIONAL

Haha...love the big dude watchin ya.

hah ya, funny, he watched most of my dunks.. kinda cool though you know.. dude was pretty huge man lol

he almost got in the way of my first dunk make, a nice two hander haha.. he said 'ooh im glad i didnt get in the way of that' or something.

FWIW, most bacterial infections are gonna be staph or strep and the vast majority are not serious.  But if you're getting recurrent infections you've got to get to the bottom of why your immune system is weak at the moment.

ya i dno, if you don't treat staph/strep with antibiotics then you're pretty F'd though.. doctors won't give me a refill of my damn antibiotics.. and they won't see me for an appointment until next week, but i have STAPH, which gets out of control rapidly.. bottom line they are piece of shit individuals.

;d

someone is sending me some bactroban cream so, apparently that is some good stuff.. going to use it hopefully on monday and get this out break under control.. if i do get a crazy fever or anything like that though, i'll probably have to goto doctor/ER immediately to get oral antibiotics.

i feel pretty sick right now, losing my voice too.. lumps havn't gotten any redder since dunking/training so that's kind of a hopeful sign.. last time i got staph, the one lump overnight got bigger/more painful very fast, then even more so the next night.. would be cool if somehow my body fought this shit off though.

i've had strep throat like 10 times growing up.. i've been sick alot growing up.. havn't had strep for a long time though.. had pertussis in like 2008 though.
