going to upload a few dribbling clips from tomorrow too (not related to basketball-drills thread, taking 2 hours to render the vid), first time dribbling hard in zoom waffles, felt amazing.. loved it.. havn't been dribbling so i screwed up more than normal but i have to stay consistent, i could drop some fun stuff with in-game handles/dribbling videos... i want to drop a 10 min vid just swagging out dribbling, no messups ;d .. my movement seemed very good/explosive/stiff, i was happy with it.


10/23/2010

BW = 149.4 <-- i took a pic on my cam for fun, of teh scale
soreness = quads/glutes, mostly glutes, sheeeeit
aches/injuries = felt pretty good
fatigue = woke up 2pm, had a bad sleep, felt tired by 3pm, slept from 3:30 to 7pm, went to dunk at 8:30pm.. fatigue was way less when i woke up at 7pm, still felt sleepy until i got warmed up tho then i felt good

workout #1: dunks
- check pics abuv ^^^
- felt good initally, dropped off after like 10 jumps.. wind messed alot of my lobs up.. landed some nasty dunks, didnt think they came out good until i checked out vid
- saving vid of a few more sessions then going to put it in a mix or something.. so im saving this footage and last session etc.



workout #2:
- dips: 2, 2, 3, 5, 7, 8, 10, 8, 8, 8, 8, 5,
- half squat @ 148 lb: 225, 235, 235, 235, 235, 235,
- calf raise: 45 lb bar @ 30,30,30,30,30

squatting felt weak, glutes /quads just too sore.. good sign though, im strong right now considering.. hah

ok peace!!!!!

This one looks soooooooooo high. Look where your head is!!!!!!  

thanks man, ya i remember that jump specifically.. i had to jump backwards to try and stay really vertical to get the lob, then realized i havn't been thinking of jumping backwards which really helps me.. i remember that jump koz it felt damn high even though i screwed up the dunk attempt with the bad lob.

peace!@$!@

Thanks man. You really do reply quick! And i reallly just wanna see what it's really about and I wanna do it to improve my game in both bball and tennis. Cuz I am a SLOW MUTHA****

yes i do ;d

tell us how it goes man, keep us updated on if you do it, or any of your progress etc..

peace man

haha thanks guys....andrew I think the pec is a little bit worse then a strain, but its feeling better everyday.

ya well strain just implies tear, what level strain it is, you'd know more about that.. sounds like a pretty bad tear initially, but it's definitely not a full tear.

glad it's feeling better..

did some basketball jumps wasn't as good as other night but still got a standing dunk it (barley lol) must be all the food and water I drank (gallon+)

that video is insane. i shit my pants a little every time you drop a vid.

nice..

Lmao about this thread, i feel the same way, its that stupid west side craze that sucks everyone in to thinking box jumps are the be all to end all vert training exercise. Doing box jumps is what stuffed my back up for another 2 months, landing in such an unctrolled fashion(barely ever do you land on the balls of your feet, usually your whole foot all at once-which sends so much force through your body), with a massive flexed back, cant be good at all.

ya, sometimes i think louie simmons is trolling... built a good rep, then decided to preach about some dumb shit like box jumps & kneeling lifts being "amazing".. i think i hate kneeling lifts more than box jumps

KNEELING POWER CLEANS
KNEELING SNATCH
KNEELING BOX JUMPS <-- ok i hate those more than anything because they combine the two.

powerlifters love box jumps, crossfitters love box jumps & kneeling oly's & kipups.

i just realized crossfit bugs the shit out of me, they love box jumps, kneeling oly's, and kipups.. all 3 of which i created threads about.

ok i don't mind crossfit, but it's funny that they utilize those 3 exercises so heavily.

lol i got so sucked into this fad that i even contemplated going to clark rubber to get mats to put on my 30inch table to increast the heigh.

ahaahahah that is bad 

ok so, this morning has been rough so far, woke up twice to find my grandpa lying on the ground.. first time he explained how he called me for so long but couldn't wait any longer so he tried to goto the bathroom by himself.. i knew it was bullshit so 4 hours later i hear a huge thud, come out, there he is again, this time worse with a bloody head/small lump.. he's fine but i knew he was trying to 'escape' (his words), he feels like he can do things by himself but he can't stand/walk without us (me/my dad) holding him up.. so anyway, after this second fall it seems like it sunk in that he can't be doing that shit, i mean it's been 2 years since he's been able to do it. he'll forget months from now and do that dumb shit again, i just explained to him that if he broke his hip, life would truly be hell.

anyway i video taped the second incident to get to the bottom of it, on video, in case teh po-po ended up being involved.. might upload it to youtube later lololol.

peace

Mate, those jumps are absolutely ridiculous at how high you are off the ground, my mind is blown


That third pic

haha! i might try and dunk again tonight, been a rough morning but my legs feel better than yesterday so..

hopefully i can make your mind SHITBRIX.

tried editing some dunk scene for my vid tonight, pretty annoyed, since i can't use the music i've wanted to use for so long, because it'll get flagged, i have to find other stuff.. can't find anything.. well i found something but it doesn't fit the session.

peace

Yeah you can bro. You have to edit the music in someway so that it differs from the original..

i wish i could, but, i got two strikes mang.. heh.. i can use some really contorted dubsteps etc.. but i guess it's time to make my own shit or use some really obscure shit.

the sound of the ball agaisnt the ground, the sound of the dunk, the sound of the rim getting raped. Thats the only music you need.

and the quote of the week goes to............................ GUGA

ya man im with you on that.. i like just the pure sounds of training/performing too, but i guess that's for the raw footage, when i put together actual mixes, music does help when it's on point, especially if i mix the footage to the music properly.. for 99% of the people viewing, it gives them a 'heightened experience'..

but ya i love just the raw footage, especially of olympic training halls for oly lifting etc..

peace man

10/22/2010

sooo.. my dad was going out tomorrow night that's why i made sure to dunk tonight, but after, i find out he's not going so, i might actually try and dunk tomorrow too.. i havn't done back to back jump/dunk sessions in a while, last time i did, 2nd session sucked bad.. but i was pretty inhibited today so, hopefully tomorrow my legs feel good..
