Just got back from my brother's college graduation. He went to art school. Some craaaaazy kids up there. Instead of cap and gown, some guy my brother knows dressed up as a lucha libre wrestler. FUll on, serious costume, nothing half-assed about it. During the point when all the kids were getting their diplomas, instead of shaking the president's hand as he walked across the stage, this guy tackled him. Literally took the president down in front of hundreds of people.

what the fuck? that could should have been tarred and feathered.

Didn't really exercise much, ate some awesome food, drank a lot. Good weekend.

nice

can you go a little more into depth on those methods but also the main thing i'm asking is for those o-lifters how much other training and what other lifts do they do besides practicing the o-lifts

some rarely deviate from the competition lifts (regular and hang versions) & squats.. some incorporate bodybuilding style methods.. i mean it's really vast, there are so many different ideologies.. linear periodizations, frequency, etc.

the main lifts though for any o-lifter is:
- c&j/snatch
- power clean/power snatch
- clean pull/snatch pull (regular or high pull)
- back squat / front squat
- rdl / core

other camps will throw in any of these:
- reverse hyper/ghr
- military press seated/standing + pullups/chinups/bent row
- jump squats/plyos

a few camps will throw in:
- kb's / jump squats etc

peace man

Interesting Glute article on Tmuscle

http://www.tmuscle.com/free_online_article/sports_body_training_performance/dispelling_the_glute_myth


If u dont have time to read below is the points that got my attention....

when i'm jumping powerfully, when i wake up in the morning (afternoon), i vigorously extend my knees, it's not something i can even really control, it's just a very powerful contraction of the quads.. i wonder if that happens to anyone here? if i don't sprint, then i rarely if ever feel my hamstrings during the day, but when i'm doing maxV sprints, i can feel them throughout the day, much more activated.

sprints definitely activate my glutes/hams more than anything.. i had cut them out for a few weeks and definitely saw the activation/tonus in them decrease.. doing them the last few days has brought it back.

peace

6 June 2010

Vertical jump testing / dunk session.
Weight@session : 200,5
Jumping on concrete , 9'10'' rim

-15' dynamic warmup
-3 mins rest
-5 ~80m sprints at 40%
-3 mins rest
-bunch of low/mid effort jumps.


1x3 SVJs : ~27,5''
1x3 1-step-lead-in RVJs , ~32,5'' , maybe even 33''
-Sudden storm , WTF , BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO        
F-U-C-K , i felt so good , was pumped with cafeine and all too , i was flying!
I was so pissed that i waited in my car for the storm to end and kept jumping on the wet court and i was still geting 32+ in all jumps.

wow! 1-step lead 32.5, possible 33 = no joke.

 

hey man, check out week 3 here... i've helped you with the weights.. i mean, if your back is bugging don't hit those weights, but if you feel good then those are the goals..

tell me if you think 127kg is too much on those msem squats.. you did it for your first session, we need to keep up a certain strength 'threshold' during this phase, we don't want to be going up and down too much IF we can hit the goal weight that session.. those 3 singles should be hard, but doable for 2 sets, so give me some feedback on that, because you did 120/127 first session, then on week 2 last session you did 120/125 etc..

for example, we want something like this, as an example:

week 1: day 1: msem 127 kg @ 2x3, day 3: msem 120 kg @ 2x3
week 3: day 1: msem 130 kg @ 2x3, day 3: msem 125 kg @ 2x3

every 2nd week its bumping up as we transition entirely into explosive phase.








ok so, we'll have a two week rotation so to get some extra volume in on the second week.. this is what I propose:

week 1: power emphasis
week 2: power + strength maintenance

week 3: power emphasis
week 4: power + strength maintenance
