interesting info, i need to get a battery for my heart rate monitor.. it's interesting how tiring MR tuck's are.. i mean, they really kill everyone.. i feel more tired doing 10-15 MAX tuck jumps than if i did a 60-80 yard sprint etc.. so your data seems to fit how I feel also.

hahaha. good point. When I was in high school me and a friend of mine both bought a pair of strength shoes and did plyos in them.  I remember the workouts called for a TON of tuck jumps, like 4 sets of 20. The first workout I nearly passed out doing them and he lost his lunch.



haha nice.. you ever puke during training? I sort of puked once, but I had basically eaten a massive lunch then performed some seriously high rep squatting, came up a bit.. other than that, never puked.

Once, during college, I ate a grilled cheese and a bunch of curly fries immediately before practice. Practice then started (after warm ups) with suicides. Up came the grilled cheese and curly fries. Lesson learned.

nice, i love curly fries.

I like a-reg to a point, especially with plyometrics and jumps, I just think the inno guys try and make it sound like it is way more complicated than it really is.

ya, i'm for a more simplified version of areg, ie:
#1 listening to your body
#2 keeping track of indicators (bar speed, jump height, sprint speed, etc)

#1 is the best though, i mean, if your jumps are starting to suck or your lifts are slowing down, you can feel it physiologically/mentally.. to deny that/not pay attention to it, is a problem.

peace man

I am not sure some other piece of grilled meat would actually look that much different after that period of time given the same environmental circumstances. This project, while maybe interesting from an artistic and intellectual standpoint, does not actually say much about about the nutritional aspects of such food.

I like fast food from time to time. I would not want to base my nutrition on McD, far from it, and I enjoy eating good, self prepared food from fresh ingredients. But I don't think I live a lot less healthy just because I eat a burger every now and then if I don't want to take the time to cook for myself.

yeah I would like to see how a "normal" burger would respond under those environmental conditions, natural potato fries also.

well i must say, that was very well put.. i'm very much anti-PED's in competition, but I also realize that creates the situation of "never having a level playing field", due to some people sneaking by during testing etc. His health-issues concern makes sense, but then in the same sense, if PED's were legal, athletes would still do as much (or more) harm by irresponsibly using these drugs... not all, but a high percentage would, I imagine.

very difficult issue heh.

everyone should be required to eat nothing but pop-tarts, and train using nothing but iso extremes & their sport specific event, then we could figure out who is the true #1.

In other cases, athletes who have been diagnosed with asthma (now nearing 25% of the elite athlete population

wtf?

8 September 2010

Basketball training

Aches/injuries : right hip bugging a bit , 1/5
Soreness: Glutes , quads and abductors , 2/5

Training went good , had good breaths and also had that "pop" , got some blocks and steals that i usually don't make because i delay from thinking to doing. "pop" = no lag between think and do.
Did only 1 rim jump at the end , exhausted , all leg muscles burning , also was awfully hot and lost tons of sweat. I got 10'6'' ( 31'' ) off 1 step , good shit!


nice! how many games you play?

ya i occasionally frequent both of those sites, beastskills is real nice.. LBSS actually knows the guy who runs it i think.

True. Jimmy's a great dude. Super friendly, helped me a TON with my squat, DL and bench form a while back and got me into the whole trigger point thing. When he's bored in between client training sessions he does one-arm handstands or kip-free muscle-ups on the pull up bar. He got voted best personal trainer in DC this year, too (in the City Paper, I think, or maybe the Washingtonian).

What I'm saying is, I want to be like Jimmy when I grow up, but with better hops.

I've seen a video of him doing windmills, or w/e that breakdance move is called, then grabbing rim double handed.

Pretty decent hops for the kind of upper body development he's got.   :D


url?

I did this before, actually I'm in that phase where you're getting back to normal sleep again. Definitely was weird, I think my personality changed and I was really tired all the time. -It's hard to get back to normal when you've done this for like half a year. I loved those naps, felt really good, especially in class. My family hated me though and they always screamed like bitches lol.

i am amazed that two people have done this on this forum.. i never thought i'd run into anyone who has tried that.

haha..

what made you want to try that out? how did you come across it?

i was just looking at the jumps again, and one of the pictures i didn't include was this one.. which i realized is pretty high, considering my arm is bent forward as far as it is with wrist still over rim.. this jump has me happy :D
