1102003 Weight Lost Running  - Day 4 35 min running on chinese new year day 11pm!  (with some fire work out in the sea)

Fatty Food, non stop eating in family Chinese New year geather style all 4 days!

1102005 Weight Lost Running  - Day 5 35 min running with my wife and father in law (10am)

Just checked my weight... it is still the same at 191lbs...  :uhhhfacepalm:

I brought Oatmeal for lunch.. so when ever I have no businese lunch, I will eat oatmeal!

To Adarq:
Last week session is tough, those 60 reps of bench and pull down is hunting me.  Since it is my first time doing that routine, everything is a bit light.  I will do it again tonight.

Btw, my weight is not going down at all, and 30+min of cardio is tough for me... I am not even doing it Daily... more like  once per 2 days... which is NOT ACCEPTABLE!!! consider my goal is to lose like 10lbs within feb 20.

right, you need consistency and I mentioned many times you need 1 hour of total cardio..

remember, i said: 30min run + 30min jump rope/interval sprints/something.... OR 60min run..

30min is fine if you have perfect consistency and 100% clean/optimal diet.. if that isn't the case, then 60min would be better..

so you have a few choices, 30min run + 30min jump rope/interval sprint/something with 60min run.. 60min run... walk + interval jogs/sprints.. jump rope intervals for one hour (200-300 turns, rest 1-2 minutes).

110207 New Adarq Program followed Day 2
MR tuck Jump
- 5 X 10  ( Still jump like a fool)

Bench Press/ Pull down Sub Set 1
- Bench: 157lbs 1x10
- FrontPull: 110 1x10   (Squat rank is free.. so i jump to squat right away)

Squat
-216lbs 3x10   (Back to upper)

- Bench: 155lbs 2x10
- FrontPull: 110 2x10

Deadlift
-179lbs 3x10   

ya 3x10 on deadlift im not a fan of, i like to tell people to keep them to 5 reps for the most part, that way back fatigue is minimized.

Bench Press/ Pull down Sub Set 2
- Bench: 135lbs 3x10
- FrontPull: 120 3x10

Calf Raise

110208 Weight Lost Running  - Day 5: 36 min run at 11:37pm  (Did 4 laps, first time really running without stopping!)

Craf is sooooo sore on 110209 morning.. my god.

sucks about calfs being sore.... but that's a sign that you need to strengthen them.

peace man, stay focused & make sure you get in cardio every day..

« on: February 10, 2011, 07:37:36 pm »
the thing about the half squat, wich definitely looks better than the other two exercises, and its more kind to me couse i have done it before, is that you never know when is deep enough.
i though i was reach a plateau in my front squat thats why i start asking about other exercise, but today i did a new  :personal-record: 120 kgs x 3 (going deeper than harry aa video) wich is not much but a big deal for me hehe so ill keep trying to improve there.

About that bodybuilder video, Dude! thats pretty descent for a guy of his size!

congrats on the PR man..

but ya about depth, do you think about depth when you do a running jump? I mean you might, but do you consciously control it? not really.. for half squat just go down and up, that is all hehe.. your depth should get pretty consistent..

ya levrone moved good in that vid but pretty hilarious how bad he got smoked.. looks surreal.

for tw0ey3s (two eyes, instead of one eye i suppose):

tw0ey3s: don't derail a thread, if you want to talk shit about me non stop create a call-em-out thread about me (or a thread anywhere) and just post in there.. i will easily "delete all posts by user" if you troll in other threads..

anyway, this is just a picture, 1 of 1000's that i could show you, that demonstrate knees over toes..



now don't reply about it anymore in here, you are ruining flander's thread.. do like i said or get banned/posts deleted.

Article & Video Discussion / Re: Two foot jump technique
« on: February 10, 2011, 07:08:14 pm »
if anyone wants to post more plants (HD) go for it ;d

http://www.adarq.org/forum/crazy-weird-analysis-stuff-%29/various-jumpers-plants/

two footed jump "technique" has too much variety for their to be a "proper form". all that matters is the accelerative runup, no stuttering, and that's about it.



Hello! Just wanted to ask you guys help for jumping technique. I'd like to master 2-foot and 1-foot, but since I'm inclined to two legged jumping, I'll start off with mastering that.

I watched Linkenaugeroobie's youtube vid on Two Foot Jump technique. Is what he saying here solid? I'm trying to re-learn my messed up Stutter Step jump technique into something similar to his in this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bf95YGbSMBg&feature=related

My technique's very hit and miss right now, sometimes I get real high on the rim, sometimes I don't even hit it because my gather or plant was wrong. I plan to post a video soon, maybe on Saturday, but for now, what are you guys' comments on his principles?

well, most of what he's saying is solid, but there's just too much variety in double leg jumping for it to be accurate regarding the plant... you want to accelerate during the runup into the plant, you don't want to stutter, but after that, there's too much variety.. torso angle/penult step/foot position during plant etc - that all can vary for each individual.. some of the best jumpers take HUGE penult step, have crazy torso lean, etc:

http://www.adarq.org/forum/crazy-weird-analysis-stuff-%29/*athlete-analysis*-golden-child/

http://www.adarq.org/forum/crazy-weird-analysis-stuff-%29/galleries-freak-dunkers-golden-child/

GC usually has alot of torso lean and a huge last-step..


t-dub has the most rugged plant on the planet, huge last step, crazy acceleration into his runup, all different types of torso position:

etc

Bonus Lightning Round (get it right and you get a coupon for one kiss from me): Will I gain more air with two hands up or one hand up? I tried doing two hands awhile ago, ended up messing it up. Maybe it was because I only tried once with f-ed up technique to boot but... yeah. ???

shouldn't matter.. you pretty much jump the same regardless, you're always swinging up with two and then after you leave the ground thats where it changes.. but you want to swing up both arms very powerfully.





so regardless, there's too much variation in double leg jumps for their to be an "adam linkenauger standard".. fix the stutter, learn to accelerate into the plant, but beyond that, just get extremely strong in the weight room - fit on the court - reactive in your reactive drills, and jump as high as possible.. as you improve those components (strength/fitness/body composition/explosiveness), your plants/jumping technique will change automatically.

Crazy Weird Analysis & Stuff :) / Re: Smolov jr "wave loading"
« on: February 10, 2011, 06:55:38 pm »
Got the idea from Adarqui's post in DamienZ thread on his smolov progress so far... these have been my workouts (you'll notice it's imperfect, as I missed some days and pushed a few others back). I put the est 1RM in there as well as according to the exrx calculator.

Format:
date - weight setsxreps (est 1RM)

Quote
245 6x6 (285250 7x5 (281270 8x4 (295255 6x6 (296270 7x5 (304288 8x4 (314265 6x6 (308275 7x5(309295 8x4 (315315 10x3 (334275 6x6 (319285 7x5 (321308 8x4 (336325 10x3 (344285 6x6 (331300 7x5 (338315 8x4 (344335 10x3 (355402295 6x6 (343310 7x5 (349328 8x4 (358345 10x3 (365305 6x6 (354320 7x5 (360335 8x4 (365355 10x3 (376) [Yet to be completed]

Well analysts, make of it what you will. Particularly, I like how after every Saturday workout (the 10x3's) the 1RM drops a bit as compared to the next Monday workout. That should provide a bit more recovery for the next workout, which is a good thing since we lift two days in a row on Fri/Sat.

For the regular smolov base mesocycle, all the 6x6 would be 4x9, and the 1RM would actually shoot up after the smolov workout in most cases... holy shit.. that's tough (but it's only for 3 weeks)



very nice ;d

good data right there.. I (or damienz) will paste his in here too when he's done with his smolov cycle.

it's definitely a great wave, shitloads of volume, but volume = good for strength/mass gains.. hard work, but effective.

Strength, Power, Reactivity, & Speed Discussion / Re: de franco box squats
« on: February 10, 2011, 06:49:00 pm »
first and foremost i'd go free half squat.. this will have more transfer to vert than box squats due to the transition phase, ie, the transition from eccentric to concentric (eccentric-isometric-concentric) is not "broken up" by sitting on a box.. this transition phase is by far the most important aspect of squatting that transfers to vert.

if I were to have to choose between box squat or pin squat, i'd pick pin squat, hands down.. pin squat would be at your box squat depth, but instead of sitting on a box, you just stay tight and rest the bar on the pins, then explode up.. this is much more beneficial than sitting back onto a box imo.

so those are the two exercises i'd utilize for trying to peak out transfer from squatting to vert, they both transfer much more than box squat imo.. most people never try pin squats, those who do, fall in love with them.. they feel 100000x better than box squats and are safer..

peace man

very sick again, flu-like, thick green mucous, chills, headache, aches :< these last 3 weeks have SUCKED ASS.





02/09/2011


bw = 153
soreness = quads/hams/calfs
aches/injuries = right elbow + right rotator cuff (shower knob is messed up, took 10min at max force the last two days to shut it off, wrecked my shit), right ankle a little
fatigue = extremely high
diet = water/protein drink + banana, walk + popcorn chicken (big size :), multi vitamin + vitamin C drink + banana, vitamin C drink + banana + water/protein drink, training + vitamin C drink + water/protein drink, vitamin C drink + water/protein drink + 2 bananas + some peanuts, 2 bananas + pb burrito + 3 ibuprofen

^^ getting off milk for some time... getting off gatorade... minimizing my diet hardcore, mostly bananas/eggs/chicken/milkless protein drinks... lots of bananas...





workout #1: walking
- felt HORRIBLE, could barely walk.. could barely jog.. achy/chills/headache/etc.. 4 miles



workout #2A: bball
- could barely move, 45 min of very light bball stuff.. was going to try to dunk before i got there, but once i started moving, that definitely wasn't goign to happen.

workout #2B: strenf
- (3-5 sec pause every set for pin squats)
- pin 6 squat: 275 x 5
- pin 7 squat: 295 x 5, 315 x 1,1, 325 x 1,1 335 x 1,1
- db bench: 60 lb @ 3 x 8, pause on last rep of each set (5s)
- S1: 45 deg hyper: 55, 50, 50,
- S1: db calf raise: 60 lb total @ 30, 30, 40


anyway, as you can see, i lifted somewhat hard......... jumping may suck while im sick but i have to push my strength.. the last 3 months have been filled with setbacks.. FUCK.. THAT.. SHIT.. tmw = rest, back at it on fri, hope im healthy, doubt i will be.. though this banana/vit c/milkless protein shake/chicken will be promising.. need more greens, we'll see when i go shopping tmw for more bananas




peace

Sincerely, completely F'n out of it..















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
- as of 1/15/2011, don't do 325 x 5, instead, hit MSEM singles at 325+, stay 305-315 x 5+

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

01/17/2011: left big toe (turf toe) , felt better initially today, even when thinking i'd be able to dunk, calf raises aggravated it throughout the day

dunno, but I think he has a very particular jumping style. He stays on the floor for a very short time and he on his last steps he lands on a lower position ready to jump, he doesnt waste time moving down.

his leg movement in the air is sick too, t-dub-like.





nice new vid:


the end is funny.

i liked the ace card analogy..

beyond that, i'm very anti roids/PED's in competitive sports.. if it's illegal, then i hate it, and i hate anyone who uses them.

in non-drug tested sports, i could care less.. for people who are simply into physique, i could care less.. for people going through andropause, i could care less..

but any athlete using PED's on a pro sports/olympic level in a drug-tested sport/event can go F themselves.
