Are you sure you only jump 8 inches, the lowest vert i've ever seen was from a 15 year old kid who was around 100-150 lb overweight and goofy as hell, he jumped 4 inches when I was interning at perfect-competition.. Ironically, he had a jersey with the number "4" on it..

Dude i want to know something.Is airalert2 good for me?

nope, you're disqualified from doing air alert because you mentioned that you are "fat", air alert + fat = not a good combo.

I heard that it is good but it can destroy my muscles  too.I don`t know what to belive 8)

it destroys joints & tendons more than muscles.





Let's be serious though, you're not really looking for REAL help, you just want some quick answers.. if you want some REAL help, fill out that questionnaire with more detail and post it in the progress journals section.

peace homie.

you can't get knocked down twice and expect to win bro.

actually, yes you can.. that's two 10-8 rounds, hopkins won pretty much every round besides those two.

hahaha.. nice..

i once outran my friend, who was much faster than me.. fastest kid in elementary school, so this is when we were young.. some gangmember thugs came after us and we bolted, and i remember vividly outrunning him for like 200 yards or so.. haha.. we were sprinting max as hell.. any other day though he'd smoke me.. this kid could dunk on 9' hoops in like 5th grade he was nuts.

now he's a chronic weed smoker with no hops.

bw = 153
soreness = calfs
aches/injuries = left achilles a little (slightly tweaks feeling randomly, yet not when doing light sprints)
fatigue = moderate
diet = protein shake, egg sandwhich + protein shake + 2 bananas, half protein shake, training, half protein shake, protein shake + PB burrito + a few chocolates (FML)


workout:
- 8 mile traversed
- very light sprints (50-100 strides) mixed in
- felt nice and soft/bouncy most of the time


recovery:
- 20min drain (legs up)
- felt so good after ;d


well, felt achy/tired today, but it's ok, resting tomorrow (sunday) also.. will get back to dunks & squat monday..

tomorrow night will hopefully be ~6 mile walk with maximal 10-20's mixed in, that's if achilles feels good.. if it doesn't, ill just walk no sprinting.. itll feel alot better tomorrow i imagine.


here's some MSEM from last night:


some of those had some nice depth.. funny thing is, start out pretty shitty, picked up around rep 4.. good considering all of the prior work.. i should be more fresh monday when i msem, going for 325+ most likely then a 20rep attempt finisher after the msem sets.

tested new rendering technique for my misc footage, thanks to damien, i think the footage actually came out great! looks really good compared to my AE raw-render of MSEM.. 3 hours vs 12 hours render time.

ADARQ & LanceSTS - Q&A / Re: plan for offseason
« on: December 19, 2010, 06:06:48 am »
looks good, you could move the chinup/dips into other sessions throughout the week, could throw those into a BW session which has prone glute, prone cobra, prone superman, some kind of tke, glute bridges etc.. that would give you a bit more tension and activation in the glutes/hams/quads throughout the week.

not sure though, just a suggestion.. would have to look at an example schedule.. are you thinking about doing something like this:

tennis = day 1..
bball
session
tennis
bball
session
rest

?

if so, your plan is pretty solid, would be good to have two rest days though somehow.. that way you could accumulate less fatigue and really push it harder. If bball leaves you toast, then that's not possible though so..

if you're only going 2x/week, you might want to cut out msem for now and focus more on some kind of heavier volume.. volume will be more important than heavy singles imo, at that stage of your training.. something like 1x5 lunge and 1x5 squat, ramp ups, might be a little more appropriate.. that sustained tension is going to pay off a bit more in terms of putting on mass etc.

Boxing / bernard hopkins vs jean pascal - HOPKINS GOT ROBBED
« on: December 19, 2010, 05:45:47 am »
who saw this? jcsbck? wtf

hopkins put on a clinic.... albeit he got knocked down twice, one shouldnt have been a knockdown, other one was legit, but he completely dominated pascal and he's 45 years old, insanity..

amazing performance, hopkins brought it, probably my fav hopkins fight of all time.

Saturday 12/18/2010:

-Warmup
-10 meter sprints x 5
-Double leg bounds: 5x5
-MR Tuck jumps: 4x10
-MR Pogos: 4x5

-Squat: 205x2, 210x3x2. (fairly certain that's a  :personal-record:)
-DB Bench: 55x3x8, 55x6. (failure on 7th rep)
-Deadlift: 225x5. (after warmup. I tried sumo form today. It actually worked fairly well)
-Seated Row: 160x4x8 (While I wrote this I got really confused because it was higher than my DL... Then I realized I had written 260. haha)

-Cooldown
-Stretch + PWO


This is probably the best workout session I've had in a while. Squats were actually lower than usual with the higher weight. What I liked most was that today is the most even my left arm has been with my right on the presses since my injury. Felt pretty cool to be almost back to where I used to be. I'm think in the next month I'll be stronger in my upper body than I was before the injury. :D (Lower body is definitely as strong as it's been)

 :headbang: :headbang: very nice.

btw, when you were in mexico, how was it? I mean it's going apeshit right now.. you weren't there not to long ago..

Vertical Jump Testing / Dunks

Weight@session : 201,5  :o
Injuries/aches : none
Soreness : none

10' jumps :

1x3 SVJs : 10'2'' ( 27'' )

1x3 dropsteps : got one at 10'7'' , 32'' ,  :personal-record:

2x3 DLRVJs ( mixed runups , 2 to 4 steps ) : average 10'7'' , got one at 10'8'' ( 33'' , season best tie again )


2x3 10' dunk attepmts : 0/6 , need 1 god damn motherfucking inch more!

2x4 9'10'' dunk attempts : 1/8 , few hard misses and a sick power dunk , best dunk ever at this height , PR dunk.

Dropoff at last dunk set ( ~26 ME jumps ) so stop.

Unbelievable session , considering it was cold ( 6'C - 43'F ) , i was 201,5lbs and i squatted heavy just ~36 hours.

Uploaded some pics of the session:

Nice session man. Now lose some of that weight and you'll be flying! Losing 10-15lbs of fat could lead to 3-5'' gain on vertical by itself... as long as you maintain that strength. DO IT!  :headbang: :headbang:

Thanks man.
Yup , at this point some fat loss ( with an absolute priority on maintaining strength ) would be very benefitial.
Im on it , its all planned...

nice :) ya man when you do that, you'll be alot closer to defeating age.. if you're getting 33 at 201, maintaining strength and dropping pretty much pure fat to hit 190 would have you 35+.

Hey guys. Just sayin' what's up now that I'm finally posting. I was on Vertfreak101's forum for a good while but that place is pretty much dead now and nobody got my sense of humor. Hopefully, this place will find me slightly funnier, and stay active. I don't have my doubts on either one of those.

LOL

:)

interested to see the 'sense of humour' they didn't get.. for what it's worth, the topic you picked for your intro is funny, office space ftw.

Anyways, glad to be here. Hopefully I can figure out some things to help me with my effed up knees. I always read a lot of what Lance posted on VF so I know he knows his stuff, and if he approves of this forum, I suppose it's okay.

Okay. Stop reading.

what's up with your knees?
