Mostly good but not mind-blowing. I was mostly surprised by how little difference there was between a lot of the "no-step" verts (which I assume are just SVJs) and "maximum" verts (which I assume are running or at least approach jumps). Some people were much better on the latter (Luke Babbitt had like an 8" improvement from standing to running, for example), but most weren't that much better.

are you an ESPN insider? :)

"shitty numbers" but legit numbers, so that's a plus.

ya most of these guys need a nice run up to express their strength properly, one step aint gonna cut it, that's still on the explosive-strength realm.

i love combines!

you were getting up nasty......and i love how you breathe out when throwing down.........how far was that from when you peaked? and what were you doing around that time, would you plan to peak each week or...........

BTW i ive read your old tvs journal but dont know when this was soooooo.

thanks man, ya that forceful breathe out thing is interesting, not many people do it, i think it comes from my boxing background or something.

this was pretty close to peak, within a few weeks.. i remember i had these sessions (1 with eddie), with another session in between actually (with eddie).. then a week or so later i had my last PR session.. I was doing high frequency squatting/lunging, rea's, jumps, and 400m sprints occasionally.. I'll go back into my journal tomorrow and look for the pages so I can url you.

peace man

Awesome jumps back then!
Height , flair , horizontal distance , throw down power , damn!!!
Gotta get back up there man... its pure sickness!

thanks alot man.. ya i did get some nasty distance on alot of those dunks, i never jump like that normally, not even at that park.. those sessions i was really amped and really going brute force.

As for the weights , i wanted to tell you all the time lately but i kept forgetting it:
I think you should do some MSEM shit! :D
Its not strength training , its performance enhancement. You would fly with their stim/power effect , and you of all people are the most fanatic MSEM fan!
So cmooon , dont be narrow minded , get under the bar ;)

it's not like i don't think about it every day :)

i've kind of been wanting too again, but, im going to ride no weights for a longer time.. it's that 'addiction feeling' creeping back in, i can't have that on my mind !! i'm going to keep going hard with no plans of touching weights, because even though i don't feel that 'stim' that i had from msem/lifting, my body does feel alot better and my hamstring tendon is less beaten down by what im doing, although the pmghr's are stressing it a bit.

but ya i have to keep 'weights' off of my brain in order to make 'no-weights' work :D

peace man

LOSE YOUR MIND DUNK MIX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Quote from: Natho on June 18, 2010, 06:55:10 am
just another Q darq, when focusing in A strength block, do you think you can have 3 strength movements..(SQUAT,LUNGE,RDL) or would this be too much in one session?

ya thats fine BUT having ALL three being completely max effort (for a set of 5 etc) wouldn't be good.. you could get away with squat/lunge going max effort, but RDL would then (or should be) a form of assistance.. back/p-chain would be pretty fatigued after heavy squat/lunges, so going real heavy on rdl's wouldn't be the best idea..

peace man

THEY DELETED MY VIDEO, HAVE TO REUPLOAD

I think that's my best video when it comes to dunking. No tricks like usual, but serious power, that's all I care about when it comes to dunking.

This was when my RVJ (~37-38 inches) was pretty much at peak (August 2009). I had one more session that had some even better jumps (~39 inches) but I lost almost all of that footage except for the few jumps I put in the ultraviolence dunk mix. I pretty much stopped training a few weeks after these dunks. ~6 months of not doing anything, weak. I found this footage on my external drive, thankfully I didn't delete it!

Camera angle distortion sucks on the plants, but it's 10', this is the same hoop:

I need to surpass those jumps, that's the mission, no weights :)

Hope yall enjoyed it.
