so wouldnt there be a decent carryover to 1 leg running vert, and a mild carryover to 2 leg?

Why would you think that, especially the latter? I mean in the 1 leg running vert, maybe a little bit since the non-jumping leg will be pulled high. But in the double legged jump there is not even any significant hip flexion that occurs. I doubt that you would get a lot out of it, especially if you are a trained athlete and not a "physically active, untrained individual".

ya i don't see much transfer happening to dlrvj, but slrvj yes..

ridiculous session..

8/26/2010

bw = 159
soreness = calfs a little, left calf moreso towards insertion
aches/injuries = not much, right shin a bit

workout:
- nice warmup, feeling a bit achy in calfs
- 10 yard sprints x 5
- 20 yard sprints x 2
- ~50 yard sprints x 1
- walking lunges @ 4 x 50tot
- neutral grip pullups: 15
- bar dips: 7
- C1: jump rope - 300 turns fast
- C1: half squat - 245 x 1
- C1-info: 8 rotations of that.. 245 was heavier at first then started flying up.. ill post vid tomorrow

^^^^^^^ that's 8 singles at 1.55xBW done with decent speed

- C2: jump rope - very fast 100 turns
- C2: half squat - 225 x 1
- C2-info: 4 rotations
- GHR: 2 x 3 <-- f that.. lol

ridiculous workout....... strength was insane.. i probably can hit 265 next time i do the jump rope/squat complex, but i probably won't.. probably going to hit 225-235 for like 12+ sets (trying to get even more speed than before), then next time hit 265 for 8 complexes..

should be flying saturday night.. gonna keep it very light tomorrow.. i have insane cns/muscle activation right now after that workout..

going to post blog of the complex + vid of each squat single tomorrow.

peace!

8/26/2010 Phase II Day 11:

Skipped my lifting for shoulders today. Energy feels depleted and I haven't had much to eat today. After dinner I decided to do some handstand pushups against my bedroom wall. Felt like a pretty good alternative to the military presses I would have done today.

Hamstrings and calves are pretty sore. It seems like lately all of my previously under-appreciated muscles have been getting the most work and developing the quickest. I kinda like it, haha. Towards the end of the day I started feeling some soreness in my lats, which I can't really explain, we'll see how I feel tomorrow.

I leave you today with some pictures of 1.5 months of very slow progress. (noticeable.... no? If so let me know what looks better and what doesn't)

i'd say traps definitely look better now.. pecs look a little thicker and you look a little wider around the lats.. you also just look like you weigh a little more in the after pic..

i see progress.. small, but it's there.

Well I already have markers... you know, the little colored circles I put on the ground. A hurdle is a bigger marker and easier to see though, but it's also heavier

I think I still prefer the markers.

My idea with the rope was to force me to actually jump vertically over it.

ya i think i recommended you do that way back, with the two hurdles and a rope

i know i dreamed last night but i forgot what i was dreaming about. the only thing i can remember is getting a text from adarqui saying, "hi" i congratulated him on his slrvj in my reply.

lol..

i had a nutty dream.. i was doing these massive jumps off like 6 flights of stairs and sticking the landing.. then trying to get some kid to video tape it with my canon hv30 so i could put it on my youtube.

hahaha

nice form on everything.. technically broad jumps don't count if you fall back, but whatever..

By the way - I don't like my form on the consecutive 2-leg jumps AT ALL, if you look at what my knees are doing your own knees are going to hurt just watching.

WAAAAAAY too much quad and depth there.

crap i lost what i tried replying before.. anyway i said simply, your form is good for the way you're doing it, but i prefer rebounding double leg bounds:

5 is a good number, with those, for measuring.. but 3 will also do.

peace
