....and spam the fuck out the comments sections of every tfb/dunk vid on youtube, read over all the good posts on all the reputable sites and make webcam vids immediately afterwards, distributing the info like you thought of it.

i don't mind hiller that much, seems mostly like he puts out some good info (from what i've seen on his vids), but he's always pissed me off with the spamming shit.. i sort through dunk/vert videos every few days, and usually i have to skip over 20 or so of his spam videos for jump manual every time.. lately it's been less, probably doesn't need to do that as much anymore.

and ya i've noticed he does take people's writings/advice and pass it off as his own, he did that with adam linkauger (can't ever spell that shit), that was pretty dirty..

so ya, he's got a good side and a bad side, don't know whether he is neutral or slightly more towards bad side, i kind of lean towards the latter, i dno.. i'd have to see jump manual one day to see what he's about, i know zgin has always told me how much he thought it was such trash etc, a few other people told me that too, but then i've also seen some legit positive feedback..

BW = 154
soreness = hamstrings a little (but towards the evening, doms)
aches/injuries = tops of feet feel better, generally feel ok, upper back a little, lower/mid back a little more
fatigue = alot

legs felt surprisingly good considering the squat volume last night.. felt strong, just a little sore.

workout: tired of walking, basketball dribbling
- 2 hours of basketball dribbling, surprisingly handles were good.. i wanna make more dribbling videos and get my skills up for when i play games to get in game dunks etc.. so i'm going to work on my bball stuff again, will probably do long dribbling/skill sessions instead of walking.


interested to see how i feel tomorrow, going to do some jumps in basketball shoes probably, then do some filming for a change of direction drill, then squat (high volume again).. thats the plan.. saturday's dunk session has left me with some fatigue i think, major 'mental' fatigue heh..


this is interesting... VMO = 15.5, thigh = 21.5, calf = 14". check my measurements from july:

july 25, 2010:
height: 6'1
weight: 160 lb.
bicep: 12" (greek=15.9)
vmo: 16" (+1")
thigh: 23.5" (+.50") (greek=23.4)
calf: 13.5" (greek=15.0)
navel: 31" (greek=30.9)
forearm: 10.5" (greek=12.Cool
wrist: 6.8"
glute/hip: 40" (greek=37.6) <-- greek = owned
measured-foot-length: 10.5"
foot-width: 3.5"
index-toe-length: 2.25"
arm-length: 30"
wingspan: 74"

hahahahahah@$!@$!@$!@

so, i'm down 6 lb, my thigh is DOWN two inches WTF.. but my vmo is down .5 inch and calf is up .5"... the thigh thing is very odd.. calfs i understand, cause of all of the high rep reactive work i've been doing.. perhaps thigh is down because i havn't been sprinting/ghr'n, but two inches wtf?

those high rep bodyweight walking lunges really helped get my thighs/vmo JACKED.. just can't do them at night, too risky..

anyway, interesting & unacceptable concerning lean mass..

week 37
week 9

abit sick. pain in chest from coughing too much.
doc gave some heavy duty meds, 10ml of the syrup left me feeling woozy. no dips for me haha.

AD warmup
prehab: shoulders, glutes, cobras

some shooting and free throw warmups.

24" depth jumps
3 x 10

REAs
3 x 3 x 85kg

Squats
5 singles x 130
5 singles x 135
pullups
20, 12

not too good, i alr hv  these numbers like 10 weeks ago...

right well we have to hit higher numbers this time around..

how did the jumping go, or did you not do any? the max effort jumps prior to the reactive work/lifting etc.

good movie, loved it.. production/directing was really nice too.


adarq gives it two thumbs up :F

also, the 'computer hacking' portion of the film was actually legit, not some matrix 3d bullshit you see in most movies.. *nix shells, wget scripts, php/sql bugs, cool ;d

Sick k.o.!  I remeber when Overeem fought at 205, now he is 255-260 ripped.  It was funny when all the pride fighters came to the u.f.c. with the more in depth drug testing, alot of the better/more well know guys didnt, Overeem, Mark Coleman (until he cleaned up and came in 50 lbs lighter as a light heavyweight), Kevin Randleman, etc.   

ya, they all came in way weaker than they were in pride.. shogun was injured originally so no idea how he would have really come in, right now he's killing people.. rampage came in a beast, but he's naturally a beast.. most all of the pride guys though got their asses handed to them. i would have loved to see fedor/overeem in ufc but that'll probably never happen.. gomi got SCHOOLED, who knows though, he might be able to do something.. no one is going to mess with frankie edgar though, he is very impressive, he schooled bj penn twice, worse the second time, don't see anyone messing with him for a while.

i've never squatted on a 'standard bar' so I really don't know.. I'd imagine weight would 'feel' heavier/less stable on a standard bar, because of how small it is and how the ends don't usually rotate.. not sure though, never had a standard bar in any gym i've been in.

The guys here are pussys , most gyms don't even have a squat rack and this one that im going and has a squat rack uses normal bars , not only for squats , everywhere , bleh!
Previous gym had nice oly bars ( even the small EZ bar had thick rotating ends ) but no squat rack , meh...
There's a new gym opening near my home and it looks like a good one, lets see...

damn that SUCKS.. hope this new gym has oly bars, i can't imagine them not having oly bars, any new gym should have them?!@?!$?!@

crazy

Day 1 on Adarqui's program.

- Warmup: Light jog, hurdle mobility drills.
- SPRINT WARMUP: 5x10 yard sprints.

- DOUBLE-LEG BOUND: 5 x 5 bounds
- MR tuck jumps: 4 x 10
- MR pogos: 4 x 5


- SQUAT: 3 x 5 @ 180 lbs.
- GHR: 1x5. Cut short because I felt like I was going to pull my right hamstring.
- CALF RAISE: 4 x 10 w/ 80 lbs.. At first I thought it wouldn't be enough in the end, but it was. Must be because I've never really done much calf work with weights.

- Dips/pullups/core rotation. 3x8 dips, 3x8 pullups, 3x8 pikes. Done in supersets.
- Stretch.

My right hamstring started feeling a little off after my first set of squats. Doing squats wasn't a problem but when I got to the GHR I felt like I was going to pull it. Decided to cut it short to avoid injury.

smart move there.. change those GHR sets to 3x5 for now also not the 5x5, once your hamstrings get real adapted then we'll go back to 5x5.

how did the reactive work feel?

For a post workout shake I used:
-1 banana
-2 eggs
-2 scoops of pinole (Mexican powdered corn drink mix. Seems to be pretty good for energy and it has some protein in it. Usually I'll use it whenever I don't use whey protein or whenever I've run out.)
-24 oz. milk (about, didn't really bother measuring)

raw eggs dayyuumm.
