Strength, Power, Reactivity, & Speed Discussion / Re: What's wrong with this Smolov spreadsheet?
« on: July 09, 2011, 11:40:55 am »
If I were you, Raptor, I'd enter your max in pounds and THEN follow the spreadsheet. But convert back to kg.

10kg is a bigger jump than 20lbs, and the same from 5kg-->10lbs.

We can like comments now? since when?

since today :D

just fixed it, seems to be working good now.. so ya, you can like individual posts.. i think its good, some posts need to be liked and shared on facebook for sure, alot of good ideas/posts/analysis/vids go unnoticed, this might help to spread things a bit more.

u "like it" ?

pC


I was on at the exact moment that you put it on, but also had just signed on FB so i thought my computer was bugging out.

Introduce Yourself / Re: Newbie to training

Hello to all you out there. Here are my stats:

13 years old, gonna be a freshman
Bodyweight: 165 lbs.
Height: 5' 10"
BF%: 13-15%
Standing Reach: 90"
Standing Vert: 16"
Running Vert 21"
(Weak vertical jump as of now, I know, but that is why I am here, to improve and get better.)
Back Squat: 185 lbs  4x8 (just started squatting recently)

I am naturally strong in my upper body, but not so much in my lower body. Have a large frame, and am slightly upper body heavy if that helps at all

Have been doing the VJB Novice Weights and Plyos for about 7 weeks now, and haven't seen any gains yet.

Very excited to continue training and hopefully improving my vertical jump before the basketball season starts.

Thanks



These starting stats are actually pretty good... as a freshman in HS i couldnt touch rim, and then dunked my sophomore year at 5'10

You have a lot of improvement ahead of you!

Progress Journals & Experimental Routines / Re: Kingfish

Wait till you work on your running approach. 45+ inch RVJ is well within your grasp.

ESPECIALLY if you can get repeatable 40" SVJs.

Injury, Prehab, & Rehab talk for the brittlebros / Re: Favorite ham string stretches? Mine are too tight
« on: June 23, 2011, 02:48:41 pm »
Good morning stretch... I don't like reach stretches, because they also stretch my lower back. I don't want that.

Also, RDLs! They stretch the hamstrings like crazy, especially since there's resistance. Do some light RDL's and you'll feel it.

About the post wo nutrition... it takes about an hour for a significant amount of whey protein (and even casein) to enter your bloodstream after ingesting it. Therefore, it would make sense to take it at the start of you workout, and then when your finished (presumably in about an hour), it begins recovering your muscles pretty much immediately.

Is it Smolov JR the "Smolov program - Base mesocycle"  in here http://joeskopec.com/smolov.html ?

Anyway, did you put in your real 1RM with the program or a little less than your true 1RM? For example, if I'm to use it, I think I'll insert a lower 1RM number than my real 1RM (say - 135 instead of 140-145).

I used a tested 1RM, 2 days prior to starting the program.

Smolov JR = Smolov Base Mesocyle with a slightly different rep scheme to make it slightly easier.

Just a note, if I were you Gary, I would absolutely continue squatting during the switching phase, maybe 3x a week.

Of course I mean light squatting

But 15 days of no squatting in a row (base cycle ends on a saturday, next cycle starts 3 mondays later) will DEFINITELY make you lose a lot of neural strength in the squat, especially after getting in 12 high-volume squat sessions in just 3 weeks.

x2, never go 72 hours without squatting imo.. submax/rep effort is better than no effort, that's for sure..

neural gains are still physiological, people forget that..

dreyth is a smolov expert, so his advice is highly respected :F

haha lol, did smolov jr for 9 weeks straight and i'm planning on doing it again after the summer.

Program Review / Re: "Flight Right" by Brandon Todd
« on: June 19, 2011, 07:45:03 pm »
Program probably sucks, he's probably not 5'5 and/or the rim is probably not 10'0, and not only that, but there are people on this board who jump higher than him through proper training already.

Waste of time, don't do it.

Damned dubstep! I like the lyrics from Sarah McLachlan's "Silence." And what's one of the songs called in the second mash-up? Melody sounds familiar.

My brother makes mash-ups too, I should post some but idn where he saves them.

I have a feeling I'll be the only poster in this thread (or not now that I said that [or I will now that I said that]).

u felt wrong bruh

my friend sent me above & beyond: group therapy album.. havn't listened to it yet, going to today when i dunk, looks promising though form youtube.

glowstix son.

pc



Dam.. the album kinda disappointed me, but their group therapy tour was phenomenal when I went to see them.

I like their slow songs from the album a lot though:

<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZGkX8gsMT7c" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZGkX8gsMT7c</a>

<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Se9yBvqQHxk" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Se9yBvqQHxk</a>




buttttt i think their older slow/chillout songs kick ass more imo:

And one last comment... I think the "Burning Bridges Mix" of "Thing Called Love" should have been a bonus track on the album. I like it better than the version they put on the album itself:
