Nutrition & Supplementation / Re: junk food diet that works
« on: November 11, 2010, 05:33:50 am »
heh.  a friend on facebook linked that.  you gotta have so much discipline to eat so little junk food though...  that's way too much temptation to have around at the house.

i dno, most americans can eat like that easily... you underestimate the unhealthyness of the USA. :)

Yeah, maybe its  just a weird coincidence, cause a lot of people said that gym do not slow down your growth. Anyway, i decided to start going to the gym from the start of the next year, dont be hurry with that if you are busy, i have a lot of time, anyway i saw a little improovement today, without a warming which is  weird  i somehow dunked on 9.5ft rim, from one leg jump, even i dont know how i did it but it was pretty awesome i wasnt able to do that before.

good job man, all progress is good progress.

i have a paper at home by Bondarchuk that correlates jump (LJ, TJ and HJ) performance with half squat, 30m accel, OHB shot and a couple more tests...the athlete's level is quite high aswell, i think they range from 6.80 to 8m in LJ, forgot about HJ.

the biggest correlations (for HJ and LJ) were with half squat (which is prolly a quarter squat for them, femur at 45 degrees, but that's just a thought), and 30m dash (i think downstart).

The values range from 0.7 to 0.9 ?? if i remember exactly...depending on the gender and performance (like 6.80-7m would have a 0.73 correlation, 7m - 7.20m would have a 0.8 one and so on....these are just examples so dont take them as granted)

also, regarding the OHB throw, pfaff was saying that when he had the bruny surin/obba thomson and and donovan bailey training together the OHB was the best correlator with their 100m...same for women when he was coaching at LSU

however....corelation doesnt mean he is fast because of OHB or because of squatting, could be the other way around, u never know

great post, what's the title of that paper?

peace man

Introduce Yourself / Re: for 45" running vert

244 damn, you shot up fast.

yeah Little chunky...Gonna work on getting super lean after meet....and go the 45" vert then...any tips on training schedule for after meet?

ya i'd start phasing in some lower level reactive work & decreasing overall lifting volume, but keeping intensity high.. that's just general concept, I can help you put together something for sure, give me an idea of what you're thinking too, because I know you're a work-a-holic and it's hard for you to stay away from the gym.. hah

bw = 152
soreness = not much
aches/injuries = right vmo achy from the depth drops
fatigue = high

diet = protein shake, cheeseburger, protein shake, training, protein shake, turkey & cheese sandwhich + protein shake


workout: reactive + gettin jakd.

tucks:
warmup
warmup 2: 5 x 5, 5 x 5
main sets: 10, 10, 10, 10, 8, 8, 10, 9, 9

S1: dips:                 : warmup (5x5 while doing tucks) ... BW + 10 (5), BW + 15 (5), BW + 20 (5), BW + 25 (5)
S1: neutral grip pullups: : warmup (5x5 while doing tucks) ... BW + 10 (5), BW + 15 (5), BW + 20 (5), BW + 25 (5)

S2: neutral grip pullups: BW @ 10, 13, 12, 10,
S2: dips:                 BW @ 11, 12, 12, 11,
S2: 2" bar curl:       60 lb @ 15, 15, 15, 12,


the dips @ BW + 25 lb were PR, so was BW + 20 lb.. so ya, getting stronger.

how much longer you think you will stay in this current phase then? what is the marker for cutoff/transition into peaking?


405x4-6 BW 190-192ish. will maintain that and do speed work. i just busted a 385 6x2 today and a x5 for the 3rd set. im getting there.

when a hit a standing 40, i will be able to 2hand dunk easily from a standstill. that makes speed work a lot more fun.


sick, get that shit.

thanks! ;D

darqui:

the outline of MSEM you suggested will be necessary and very beneficial, but is still too early in this stage of my training IMO. i need more stimulus to grow and add leg mass, hence the need for a 1 to 1 volume / deload workout that im doing right now. i would do all volume (30+ total reps) if i could but recovery just can't handle it.

how much longer you think you will stay in this current phase then? what is the marker for cutoff/transition into peaking?

and that 30-60secs between reps  :P :P

im still trying to figure out the least hurtful way of removing my back off the bar by that time. long sets really gets it burried nicely into my back.

didn't know it was that uncomfortable for you, sucks.. use a pussypad, jk.

i'm sure it'll be better once you get a few sessions in, maybe get those traps huge, start shrugging hah.

10 November 2010

Bball game. Endurance still bad. Only one 1-step jump at warmups , easy 31''

Didn't play at 2nd half , so going home i went to the park and did a few jumps ( concrete , bad light , 10' rim )

1x3 SVJs : 10'1'' ( 26'' )
1x3 dropsteps : 10'5'' ( 30'' )
1x3 1-step-DLRVJs : 10'6'' ( 31'' )
1x3 2-step-DLRVJs : 10'7'' ( 32'' )

Very good considering the circumstances...


nice, i can't ever jump good after switching courts.. legs become jello.

here's my vids http://www.youtube.com/kingfish405
training journal at tvs.. it stays there until i complete my goal of 40SVJ. hopefully soon.

sig:

5'10" | 192lbs | 8.4%BF | 29 yrs
reach - 7'8" (92") |full squat - 385lbx6| standing VJ - 38"|



welcome man, you're pretty close (as usual) hehe, i'd personally focus more on singles (MSEM, 90-95% of 1rm), ratio'd like:

volume-strength:msem-peak = 1:3, 1 volume workout for every 3 msem workouts.. msem would help drop fatigue & get you to focus completely on maximally accelerating each rep, resting, then repeating, pretty much like how a VJ session goes.

a msem session could look like:
- warmup
- SVJ's
- reactive work (depth drops/depth jumps or tucks/pogos)
- MSEM squat: 3-4 x 2-3 @ 90-95%, ~30-60s rest between reps, 5min rest between sets
- stretch

volume sessions could be pretty much anything such as 4 x 4 etc.

my 2cents..

regardless, hope you get that shit soon we've all been eagerly waiting :)

and welcome!!!

i've tried them, I personally don't like them.. but people at the gym I used to work at, many of them loved the perfect pushup.. I actually don't like the rotation, feels weird.

this ad is pissing me off, it's not appetizing to me at all and I see it far too much.
