Quoteya i am, are you referring the guy that tried to dunk on me? if so, you misread, he was 6'2
38 at 6'8 is damn nuts though for sure, nearing lebron status.
i read somewhere that lebron's running vert was 44" {on hoopsvibe}, ifso that be damn close to 13' touch...........
Snow leopards are my favourite, they might well have the most impressive jump from all animals:
50 feet horizontal jump
20 feet vertical jump

looks like ur enjoyin ur hoops again...
38 inches at 6'8... that would be jawdropping to see in person, for me..

hey darq, have u seen the "35 rep squat fighter" vid on t-nation homepage, that motivated me like crazy......
Thanks again for the insight! I have been thinking about a time efficient way to organize the power/peaking block and incorporate STIM while maintaining strength. I also wanted to include regular tests of VJ and max strength for good evaluation. If things go as planned, max strength should stay about the same while vertical jump goes up. If vertical jump stagnates for X test sessions in a row, the power block is over. If max strength goes up, so will the loads for the power exercises.Code: [Select]day
1 MSEM + power training
2 rest
3 rest
4 VJ test + power training
5 rest
6 power training
7 rest
8 strength training
9 rest
10 rest
So a whole cycle will take 10 days with 3 power training sessions and one max strength training session with a more conventional approach (either 3x5 or something along those lines).
Does that look reasonable so far?
dam, that looks high as fuck. I wonder how beast my 33 inch jump would look

no prob dude, was planning on starting next week anyway.
hip today was alright.. but if u look at rip's link,

its the white spot beside the red zone that rip mentioned..

according to that pic with the ruler, it looks like you were getting mid 30's probably or even higher unless i'm looking at it wrnog. You supposed to look at the lowest point of the feet or highest?5/19/2010
bw 158, got 10 hours sleep from 12:30am to 10:30am, felt good
basketball court stuff:
- dribbling/jumping/lots of jumpers
- got up nice on a few dunk attempts, rim was like 9'11 bent down about 1", i made one on it
workout stuff:
- incline pushups
- jump rope intervals (4 x 2 min)
- single leg rfi , 30 each side, lat and lin
- double leg tuck jumps: 30 (TRAPS CRAMPED SO HARD DURING THESE)
tonight will be pullups and stuff.
based on heels this is probably ~32", based on hand it'd be higher but rim is bent down 1 inch or so.. this was my highest jump of the day, everything else was 1-2" lower:
here's an old image i used to use to look at how high my feet were, based on comparison pics:
peace
Looking good man. I remember those measuring pics you made. But damn you are skinny. Envy the beard.

Here is a link to my blog, where I explained the exercise a bit further. http://therawhigh.blogspot.com/2010/05/eccentric-pistol-squats.html
I named it eccentric because you train to absorb more force in the thighs, hopefully some people like this one . . . . feedback please
when doing tuck jumps what do you focus on?: minimal gct or maximal jump every time?
Hey darq what is your opinion on box squats?
and when doing stepups should you alternate at the top or complete up and down then switch legs?
how did you do your heavy lunges back in the day, in place? walking? reverse? thanks in advance..................KNOWLEDGE IS POWER..hehe
