D-ZL!

No dunking (esp. no two handers, off the dribble?) is a def nono tho smh


thnx, but ya, too many kids running around, i can't dunk if i'm worrying about landing on a ball that comes out of nowhere etc.. plus i don't want to kick these kids off the court, the dudes on the bleachers yelled at them "HEY GET OFF THE COURT MAN IS TRYING TO DO SOMETHING" and i was like "nah im just chillin", they wanted to see me throw down but i don't wanna kick no kids off the court, I should just wake up earlier... that would solve that issue :D




14s was the shit!  :o

lol, need to get up higher @$!@!


Woow, u got real high :-x

thanks man!



Damn man you're getting up..

I was wondering though, I never see you dunking off the dribble or just running up, the'yre always lobs. From the height you're getting on the jumps it looks like you could throw down a 2 hander pretty easily. Is there a reason you stay away from dunks off the dribble? Don't you want to work on that too for in-game dunks?

thanks man.. I just don't like dunking off the dribble, I don't get as high as full run up, and I don't plan on playing games any time soon because an injury by playing in some pointless game would set me back bigtime.. If that court was clear, I would have done some dunks off the dribble, but mostly lobs.. I can't get as high with the ball as you see in my jumps here, the ball screws up my arm swing and I get alot lower.

peace








Are all these protein shakes healthy? I mean, they're man made, a powder "thingy"... processed basically... you can't grow or shoot protein shakes

Yeah but you think protein powder comes from...where, exactly? Cows. Or soybeans or egg whites, if you're into that kind of thing. You can shoot cows, eggs come out of chickens, which you can shoot, and you can grow soybeans, so what's the problem? Protein powder is not man-made anymore than yogurt or butter or corn meal are man-made. And, that being said, who cares if it is? Paleo is complete BS.

x2

whey is a biproduct of cheese raptor, cows ftw.

;d

what was the peak jump? Like 38?

dno :/ peek jump is definitely the first one though, head height.. seems i get higher coming in off the right side, you can see my plant/feet are different too, much more of a breaking effect and alot more ankle/plantar flexor kicking in.

went out on a limb and played the company game with a swollen mouth.

close game, down by 7 with less than 2mins. teammate got an and1 situation, he missed the freethrow. i normally dun stand at the post for freethrows, but i did, not sure why tho. got the rebound off the miss, scored the putback. down 3.

next possession we somehow managed to force a turnover, and somehow the ball ended in my hands. attacked the rim, got the and1, made the freethrow. got fouled again after that, made 1 of 2. and we won. yippee!

got my left quad banged into again on a layup tho.

went down to the gym after that. did 4 x 10 pullups, and 1 x 20 back extensions.

i really cant do any weights this week haha. on the last few reps on pullups, i bit abit and drew some blood. haha. end of workout.

nice except for the leg..





btw andrew, supercompensation happens/is planned after a GPP/hi vol phase right?
why am i not doin anythin like that?

well we were transitioning into it but alot of shit has been getting slightly messed.

just tell me when you're able to train hard again, we need to focus hard on singles/depth jumps and get that vert peaked.

Bball practice.
Nice , feeling very bouncy after a long time , MR tucks + Depth Drops FTW!

nice.. ya man, pogos can get too intense, so can drops, but tucks are pretty much always safe/effective.. drops really make me feel strong when i'm pushing them, just gotta progress slow, when i get greedy on drops i get hurt.

Unfortunately it was an exhausting training , which is generally great but i didn't have the chance to get some good jumps in.
All i got was a 10'2'' SVJ ( 27'' ) while fresh and a 10'7'' 2-steps-DLRVJ ( 32'' ) while dead , not bad!


still good man.. 32" when dead = win.

   If someone is comfortable with another style then by all means I have no issues with them doing that, the most important thing is that you get a style of squat that you are comfortable with and believe in, if youre always guessing wether or not you should be doing something else you will not get optimal results from anything youre doing anyhow.

truth.

in reality, it only matters if you're improving your ability to produce force in the ROM necessary for jumping, how you do that doesn't necessarily matter, but i still think if you look at it in a minutiae sort of way, it would be in this order:

1. half squat
2. oly front squat
3. oly back squat
4. PL back squat

again, the best bets would be #2,3,&4 year round, but for lanky bishes, #1 can be used year round.. all other bishes can use #1 if they are peaking etc, it's definitely an option that might really spur on some extra gains.

if you want to look at transfer, you have to look at the body position AFTER the athlete is coming back up out of the squat, into the half squat position.. for most people, when jumping, that will be very upright torso with knees jutting forward to varying degrees, but as for squat, it's the torso being upright that seems the most important to me in terms of transfer.. unless you're jack cascio who thinks quads are 15% of SVJ/RVJ.. lol.


some pics: oly back

















some pics: oly front










some pics: rippetoe squat








^^ that is definitely the "least specific" in regards to SVJ/RVJ of the squats pasted..
