ok so..... last night i decided im going to go back to that nice outdoor court with a roof, because of all the rain that has happened here.. so i goto sleep at 4:30 am (instead of 6:30am) and wake at 10:30am, needless to say not enough sleep..

i go dunk, kinda tired but trying to forget about it.. as im warming up, the rain comes in from the side, massive wind/rain.. wrecks the court.. i wait it out and do like 30 dunk attempts, a few really nice jumps, but the combo of slightly slippery shoes (mostly in my head) and lack of sleep had me less than peak.. but i still got to like 35" on a few jumps.

so i get home, all caff'd up, and pass out for 4 hours..

i wake up and weather seems nice outside.. i just may go dunk again, at a local court here.

lol nuts.

peace

do you have a job? or is this it? cuz i know my parents couldn't do that sleep schedule

anyway this summer i have the same sleep schedule except i fall asleep at like 3AM and wake up at like 3pm or even later
haha i kinda like it except there is little to do at night when you can't drive anywhere you want

so you where at the roofed court and it still go through!!! holy crap must have been pouring
i am gonna hit the court tomorrow thanks for reminding me

Whaddup ya'll-

Found adarq on youtube.  I am 6' 1 1/2", white, and weigh about 212lbs right now (down from all time high of about 240lb back in my 300+lb bench days).  I'm about 11-12% body fat percentage right now shooting to get down to about 8 or 9 soon hopefully (dropping a few more pounds in the process- I already have a visible 6 pack so almost there).  I train mostly with kettlebells and do some pliometrics with jumpsoles.  I can grab rim now easy off a drop step (haven't tried standing vert yet) and have about a 7'11 1/2" reach with shoes on.  My goal is to be able to dunk on regulation again (used to be able in high school).  Theres a park down the street from me with a 9 1/2' hoop (great for practice) and the other side is about an inch short at 9' 11" (also good to work up from).  I'll be posting a video soon of dunk practice on my youtube channel at http://www.youtube.com/user/AnthonyC5R  .  Stay tuned!

Vertical jump testing/dunks session
Weight@session : ~191,5
Stim : 200mg caffeine + 1 redbull , good!
Awfully hot and humid , terrible conditions , even at 9:30pm that i had my session.

Warmup : 10' dynamic warmup , 2x10 MR tuck jumps , 2x30 line hops , and then some low/mid effort jumps.

JUMPS on 9'10'' ( 10' was taken again ):
-1x3 SVJs : 29 ( equals PR ).
-1x4 2-step DLRVJs : ~33+''
-1x4 full runup DLRVJs : ~33+''.
Very nice , got many clean 29'' SVJ and 33'' RVJ rim touches , some were 1 frame after peak so 33,5 to 34.

DUNKS on 9'8'':
4x5 dunk attemts.
Couldn't palm the ball today , DUH!
Still got some very nice dunks , jumps were great too.

Very happy with this session , because the heat really drains me.

Hey ! I'm Ofir AKA The Silencer, most of you probably know me as a dunker and basketball player.

I started my journey to a bigger vertical jump at 16, known as "Skywalker" on the J101 forums.
Through there I was contacted by Peter Mundy, who washed my eyes with Kelly Baggetts work, which exposed me to the world of sports enhancement

My life has changed dramatically since then.
I got in that crap deep since then, I am now 22, moved to Track from semi-pro basketball and doing quite well.
I have my PT certification and I am gaining experience in a lot of gyms and athlete clients, And i'm planning on moving to the states to to compete in NAIA/D2 track.

I run 11.05 100M FAT, a 3.60 30m HT, and jump 43" vertical leap from 3 steps.
Currently 6'3" and 190lbs

I would like to run 10.60 by next year, and jump high enough to get my mouth to the rim.

Been lurking for a while but decided to register !
VERY nice website,hoping to learn a lot.
 good luck !

And here's a set of bench presses outdoors in like 2 degrees C at night

Yep, that's where I train (Even though I have free memberships in 3 gyms)
BTW the floor is all twisted so in real life it's like a natural incline bench.. LOL

Dude I'm telling you it's because my legs were so pumped. I'm growing redwoods brah.

nice man, keep getting that bf% down as well and you'll be flying

Thanks guys, lets see if it will transfer to vert...
Oh , 187 is a typo , its 188. All the other numbers are ok.
My top morning weight ( when bulking ) was ~198 , so i must set a limit , like 15lbs , so im not going under 183.
