nice, stick with that!

DLRVJ: RL now (if it means right foot hits first, left then hits ground, gathering into 2 feet tgt, and jumpoff)
SLRVJ: jumps off left leg

ya, tvs/adarq have come up with easy acronyms for jumping:

RL-DLRVJ = right left plant, double leg jump, right leg hits ground first, then left, then jump
LR-DLRVJ = left right plant ...
L-SLRVJ = left leg single leg vert
R-SLRVJ = right ..
SVJ = standing vert

:D

but ya i find it odd you plant RL on DLRVJ and jump off left for SLRVJ lol... ;d

damn...

i was doing DJs the other day, and the thought came to me. i think i jump mostly off RL now (meaning right foot hits first, left then hits ground, gathering into 2 feet tgt, and jumpoff). gotta make a mental note to see how i jump haha!

shit i typo'd in my other reply..

http://www.adarq.org/forum/progress-journals-experimental-routines/from-bull-to-beast-hopefully/msg9243/#msg9243

check it..

bottom line, do what feels best and gets you the highest, but check that post, that'll explain how it normally should go:

check this, i'm a LR planter, right leg comes off box before i drop: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0efalqyxhRM&fmt=22

meaning i should stick out my right foot first, drop off, and jump?
haha, damn, i was doing it left foot first. not sure why, just came naturally, maybe cos of the past SLRVJ influence.

well, what do you normally use? i would imagine left leg would feel most natural and get you the highest since you are a RL planter.. that is, left leg coming off the box first, then drop.

??

peace!

btw, does it matter which foot i stick out first on the DJs?

somewhat.. if you plant LR, then you should generally be going off the box with RIGHT leg first, but you do LR and RL plants so, you should mix it up.

typo'd ^^^^^

example: doing dj's, normal LR planter, lead off with right leg (bring foot off box) so that you swing your left leg into the plant as you drop, this makes it similar to a LR plant.

example: doing dj's, normal RL planter, lead off with left leg (bring foot off box) so that you swing your right leg into the plant as you drop, this makes it similar to a RL plant.

if you prefer using the other leg to lead off the box, because it feels more comfortable, yet you still get higher, go with that. :)


oh crap, must paste workout

shit, gimmie 5min.

game was postponed. caught despicable me, funny shit.

feel pretty good all round. thought the back was perfectly recovered, but that sore bit at the lower left still slightly bugging. but just take it that im perfectly good, i'll cut back abit if i find things too tough :)

there's this spot on the ankle that's kinda bugging, but thats from a bad sprain from a year or so ago. always been there since. anything one can do to cure it?

have you tried icing it? that would be my first suggestion.. whatever bugs it, ice it right after.. and ice it at night.

i'm going to try that foot position.. i usually lock my ankles down with the pads, but, im going to leave them up so i can use even my calf/toes to help ghr me up..

such ridiculous strength though, perfect.

7/11/2010

BW = 157

soreness: none
aches: lateral hamstring tendons
injuries: none
diet: big stir fry + milk + hamburger with bread, after workout milk + bananas + cherries

ok so, i felt fine all day.. then after my first few sprints, both of my hamstrings 'pull', more like they cramped up.. so that kind of wrecked me tonight.

workout:
- interval sprints: 10's-20's with cramped hamstrings, about 10 in 3 miles, ran 17mph using some radar thing at 20 yards with my hamstrings cramped bwahaha
- jumps: RL was strong, R-SLRVJ was very good - PR'd at 10'2 and 10'3, LR jumps felt fine when relaxed but when going max effort my hamstring was ruining the jump, same for L-SLRVJ (but i still hit 10'6 or so)
- the L-SLRVJ and R-SLRVJ were done at a frantic pace because of mosquitos.. i would do an L-SLRVJ at one end, jog to the other end and do a R-SLRVJ, repeat, did that for about 10 jumps each
- jog home: 1.5 mile
- pushups: 3 x 30, 1 x 15

so my workout got derailed because of:
- hamstrings
- mosquitos

my GPP might finally be catching up with me, or..... that two-a-day yesterday really killed me, so ya thats a gpp issue.

peace

Damn, btw my knees hurt..

???

what u mean? explain? !!!

yo lbss, this is just the general idea so far, no sets/reps yet because of course we'll probably have to tweak it.. but the idea will be to really focus more on the movement sessions than lifting, but we're still getting our strength work in.. there will actually be much more drills included, in the movement sessions, not per session, but over the course of multiple sessions to throw in lots of variety, you know?

if we started to implement this rather soon, then all of the drills in the movement sessions could be done submax etc.. those sessions are not intended to be max effort anyway, UNLESS you are feeling great and of course are 100% healthy.. initially they are to be performed at say 70-80%, to just get the work in and adapt slowly.. so for 5-10-5, initially it's not done at 100%, we'd focus on 70-80% and make sure that you are using better mechanics during say, the line touches and change of direction.. this way we'll get the body ready for those kinds of cuts, using position and submax work.

we'd phase in volume etc and all that, so ya keep in mind this is just very general outline of how it would look.. ideally you'd be able to eventually get in 4 movement sessions per week and 2 lifting, beast mode :D at that point you'd be able to handle ultimate or any sport a hell of alot better than you currently can, so that's what we're shooting for.. 2-3 months of this massive GPP.


GOALS FOR THIS BLOCK:
- Get in shape/strong dynamically using a variety of movements, to help prevent future injury & improve work capacity.
- Primarily improve work capacity and ability to withstand a variety of dynamic movements. Secondary, improve strength.

TRAINING:
- MOVEMENT TRAINING can precede STRENGTH TRAINING, or they can be done on separate days.

EXAMPLE SAME DAY:
- Monday: movement-training=session-1=45min, strength-training=session-1=45min
- Tuesday: rest
- Wednesday: movement-training=session-2=45min, strength-training=session-2=45min
- Thursday: rest
- Friday: repeat with monday or another rest day etc..

EXAMPLE SEPARATE DAYS:
- Sunday: movement-training=session-1
- Monday: strength-training=session-1
- Tuesday: rest
- Wednesday: movement-training=session-2
- Thursday: rest
- Friday: strength-training=session-2
- Saturday: rest

I'd go with the first example, trying to fit in 3 movement-training days per week and 2 strength days, so, something like this:
- Sunday: movement-training=session-1=45min, strength-training=session-1=45min
- Monday: rest
- Tuesday: movement-training-session-2
- Wednesday: rest
- Thursday: Movement-training=session-1=45min, strength-training=session-2=45min
- Friday: rest
- Saturday: Movement-training=session-2
- ...



MOVEMENT TRAINING:

Session 1: sprint emphasis, lateral emphasis
- WARMUP
- SPRINT WARMUP:
- 20 YARD SPRINTS:
-- C1: 5-YARD-LAT-SPEED-SHUFFLE:
-- C1: 5-10-5:
-- C1: MULTI-SHUFFLE-TO-SPRINT:
- 60 YARD TEMPO: 70% SPRINT + WALK BACK


Session 2: jump emphasis (to be done in that basketball gym you train in)
- WARMUP
- SPRINT WARMUP
- JUMP WARMUP
- JUMPS: as many as wanted
-- C1: BACKPEDAL-SPRINT:
-- C1: SHORT-SUICIDE:
-- C1: SHORT-LAT-SHUFFLE-GASSERS:
- SINGLE-LEG-RFI: (LAT), (LIN)




STRENGTH TRAINING:

Session 1: weighted upper body + full bodyweight circuit
- WARMUP (if not done directly after session 1)
- PREHAB: SHOULDERS + LOWER-BACK + VMO
- BENCH PRESS:
- DB ROW:
-- C1: bodyweight reverse lunge (or if toe is messed, BSS/elevated stepup thing, ill vid you)
-- C1: pullups or chinups
-- C1: single leg buck (hamstrings)
-- C1: pushups
-- C1: double leg hip extension
-- C1-rest= C1-sets=
- CORE:
- STRETCH:


Session 2: weighted lower body + full bodyweight circuit
- WARMUP (if not done directly after session 1)
- PREHAB: SHOULDERS + LOWER-BACK + VMO
- TRAP BAR DEADLIFT:
- BSS:
-- C1: pullups or chinups
-- C1: single leg buck (hamstrings)
-- C1: pushups
-- C1: double leg hip extension
-- C1-rest= C1-sets=
- CORE:
- STRETCH:


Don't freak out about those circuits, they will be tough but won't take so long.. pretty much a finisher to really just target alot of muscle groups.

nice vid.. t-dub is my favorite power dunker, without a doubt.

Short rim, obviously. The promoters have every reason to let the dunkers do the most ridiculous shit possible. Ergo, a 9'6" or 9'8" rim.

i agree that the rims are low, 9'8 at lowest but probably around 9'10.. everyone gets way higher on those rims, and they look damn low.

but i have no doubt t-dub can hit his head on a legit 10' on his best jump... too much footage of him getting that high on so many rims. :)

Agreed , id go for 9'9'' to 9'10''
And i do agree T-Dub can get 51'' to get his head at rim consistently.
This one was just pushing it too much , and i hate the 10' label the rim has on it , its like its saying "please , believe me , im 10'... i may look lower but im telling you , im 10..."


hah ya..

20264

soreness: none
aches: hamstring tendons, both bicep femoris tendons GAH, from the maximal ghr eccentrics
injuries: none
diet: milk post workout-1, burger + fries + desert, milk/bananas post workout-2


workout #1:
- flying in track flats.. 1-step RVJ 32, full run up RVJ 33 or so, no lob, FORGOT to mention, PR'd RL plant, like 125" or so
- self lob dunks sucked, timing off
- MR tuck jumps: 4 x 10, 1 x 40, real good bounce
- stiff leg ankle hops: not as stiff as i wanted but ok.. 4 x 5

workout #2:
- ~3 mile walk with interval sprints in between - speed felt great
- 1 mile jog home
- chinups: 15, 10, 8

not bad for in a very intense GPP ! :D












I just thought that quote was funny. Alan Aragon making fun of "clean" vs. "dirty" carbs. Guess it's just me haha.

ya i think that one is on you.. though, you may find this hilarious, i did:
