adarq, are u ever gonna start doing more traditional strength work again?  IE barbell squats, BSS/lunges, GHR, Reverse hypers etc etc?  Could definitely put you "over the top" in terms of VJ perhaps..

i don't have access to rev hyper or i'd do them alot.. bss no, lunge no just bw.. ghr, maybe, get bored of ghr. I barbell skwatz.

;d

also quick question, for todays workout,

For ( REACTIVE: DEPTH DROP: ~24" to start, 3 x 5 ) you just mean going off 24 inches and sticking the landing right??  whys it reactive??

So sometihng like this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IoktVIyYCAM

or do you mean a regular depth jump??


ya depth drop.. i lump it in with reactive, it's a reactive/explosive strength exercise soo.. make sure you sit back on it, don't let the knees 'shift' forward, land in position with hips back a bit more.

we need to get soft landings on those, with no buckle in the knees/hips.

peace man

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

that one rim that haneef dunks on, in that 24 hour fitness, is def low, thing is, that rim helped billy doran win a nissan.

HEH.

Posting this on the way to work, right after the game...

Short of ppl as usual, played almost entire game.

Got in some jumps after fulltime. Teeheehee got almost my entire palm over, mayb an inch or less to wrist, on every jump after gettin a few 'warmup' jumps in. All felt easy too, like they were submax, so I'm happier by abit now..

Pity the next time I get to the same court is in 2 weeks time..

well this is good news.. i'll post the next two workouts later tonight, but what days can you lift? it would be good if you could do like a sun/wed so we can full body it, plyo + singles + some upper work.

is that doable?

peace

hahaha, the PR was actually whole palm over, at the lower rim. the high rim is defined as the one i have a vid of haha.

finally am getting a game tmr at the PR rim. we'll see how things go tmr.

those days of jumping high seem so long ago...

hope it went well, shit seems all haywire lately.. hope to see some good jumps when i wake up tomorrow.

regardless, we need to transition into more of a peak block (singles/more DJ/more jumping) right now, see how much you can get out of whatever we've gained, but really jump sessions have to become more frequent to tie everything in together.

I can't eat too much so I eat a lot of sugars and stuff and carbs to be on a caloric + while strength training... is that cool?

I mean, I eat protein - eggs, chicken, fish, protein shakes but I also eat cookies and chocolate and stuff like that just to be on a caloric surplus...

I kind of want to gain weight this winter and then in the spring lose the body fat (because I have a lot to lose).

no way man, unnecessary insulin spikes from candy/sugars is just going to put fat on you.. look at how lots of natural BB'rs train, of course they go on their bulks, but the good one's rarely eat junky sugars throughout the day, they keep it to complex carbs and then keep the simple sugars for the PWO shakes etc..

candy/sugars is holding your body composition back for sure, it really screws with your insulin, you end up storing much more fat than if you replace those simple sugars with something healthier, like a glass of milk, some kind of protein mix, etc.

getting your caloric surplus from junk sugars = bad, getting it from complex carbs/protein and fats is better, it really comes down to the insulin spikes and how those in excess end up turning you into a jaba the hut.

bw = 149.4
soreness = none
aches/injuries = left plantar fascia a little
fatigue = very high

hoping to jump good friday: tentative schedule
- tues = volume lower/pull
- wed = volume upper-push/calfs/glutebridge
- thurs = pogo's
- fri = dunk


workout: volume lower/pull
- walking lunges on ball of foot: 4 x 100 total
-- legs jello (bad sign for current ability. good sign for how much stronger ill be once i get back adapted with high rep lunging)
- chinups: 12, 9, 8

- C1: squat: 185 @ 5 x 5
- C1: db one arm row: 60 lb @ 4 x 15, 1 x 21

- rear delt fly: 3 x 10 @ 10lb
- 3" bar curls: 50 lb @ 10, 2x8




going to try and keep this rotation up for a little bit.. need the volume.

peace!

26 October 2010

Vertical Jump Testing : Jumping on concrete , 10' rim.
Weight@session : ~197
Injuries/aches: none
Soreness : DOMS 2/5 in chest , lats , biceps, 1/5 shoulders, triceps.

- 5-10 mins dynamic warmup
- Bunch of low&mid effort warmup jumps.

1x4 SVJs : all 26''
1x4 dropstep DLVJs : 29-30-30-30
1x4 1-step DLRVJs : 32-31-31-31 ( 10'7'' with one step , niceeee )
1x4 2-step DLRVJs : 32-32-32-31 ( shins start bugging )
1x4 full runup DLRVJs : 32-31-31-31 ( meh , dropoff? )
1x3 SLRVJs : awfull , colapsing at penultimate step , couldn't even get rim , like 23'' or so...
Retest 1xSVJ : 25'' ( 1'' dropoff )
Retest 1xdropstep : 29'' ( 1'' dropoff )
Retest 1x1-step jump : 30 ( 1''-2'' dropoff )
End session

NOTES :
- SVJ = 26'' , dropstep = 30'' , WTF?
- 2-step jumps steady at 32''  , but 1-step jumps felt better although i got 32'' only one time.
- Full runup felt good and fluid , but i also got 32'' in only 1 jump , average height equal to 1-step , WTF?


well shins bugging could have derailed you in itself, but perhaps you might want to put a little reactive work in some of your non-reactive/power sessions, such as with upper body etc, just to build up your preparedness a bit more for full runups/all that force absorption.. just stuff like tucks or jump rope, pogos, etc, at submax intensity might help a bit more.
