doesn't look 10' but you never know, looks more like 9'6 to me.. could just be angle etc who knows.. he's not really getting that high over it, he's just palming the ball well so it's an easy dunk for him..

Hey darq, the last 2 days ive had to do alot of max effort jumps, i feel fine in my hams/glutes/quads, its just my calves/achilles are killing me, normally i dont get sore in this are. When you have bad/torn/fatigued achilles/calves would would you do to aid recover...walking? stretching? heat/ice?....

ice for sure, but also, you might need to tweak some variables around so that you don't get achilles aches, you definitely don't want those.. i fought through them alot, ended up becoming a really annoying issue.. it's a sign you are really stressing those plantar flexors/ankles hard, which is good, but you're stressing them a bit TOO hard.. it's probably from the depth jumps, the achilles gets loaded hardcore during DJ's.

Man you'll throw that down next time.
Vintage Darqman coming.

!



ya can't wait.. should be in the next week or so.. I wanted to dunk with adam from TVS on monday or tuesday, if we do that ill definitely get a throw down. I'd like to see him throw down some dunks too.

i'd lose some water weight/food weight for that and caff up good, i'd definitely be getting 33" at least.

caffeine does wonders.. that's my new lifting, caff up 1-2x/week and jump while being dehydrated after 5 poops. new training method established

hilarious that im happy about this jump..
- 1 hour sleep
- hamstrings basically cramping
- legs felt jiggly
- no lifting anymore
- it was about 31" or so, that would be like the best ever without lifting

lol.. cracks me up, but im happy. i didn't check the rest of the jumps, but this was definitely one of the best ones, i slammed it in and it flew out.. hah


Very good pic man!
Id say its ~32'' , looks like ~9'' above, so 10'9'' - 8'1'' = 32''.
Hey , 32'' with no lifting + anti-explosive training for months is no joke , you know it...
:D


ya i was being conservative, i think it's 32 also!

ya man, no lifting 32" for me is ridiculous......... it's all this damn sprinting and shit..... it's making my legs feel very strong....

the caffeine definitely helped too man, that shit gets me up.. i weighed like 165 too before the dunk session, which was mostly food left in my stomach since i didnt sleep and EXCRETE it looool.. so if i was 158-160 i might have had 33 or so, i just got re-motivated.. haha

peace man

got real busy tonight. bleh.. didn't want to workout anyway, hoping tomorrow i feel good..

left knee has a little bit of tendonitis feeling on the patella insertion, left shoulder is much better.. dont know what the knee feeling is from, except maybe stretching my quads yesterday, that probably did it.

so nothing for tonight, just rest.. hopefully feel good enough to do a bball dribbling workout tomorrow morning.

I will try that but from what I'm aware of, the ITB can't really be stretched... it's just a myth. It doesn't respond to stretching.

ya pretty much have to foam roll it hard, or pvc roll etc..

ah, aight what u think after watching the entire fight?

i think he's very sloppy, but very strong.. i mean im surprised he did that good though.. he is tough as fuck and took on someone with alot of experience, so i give him props, if he keeps working hard like this he might actually be decent in a few years.

yeah, blog post  ;), Nah i meant would YOU ever do those kinds of iso's (unless you've tried them already)....and im like a 90kg fat ass know (not really still got a 6pck) just been trying to pack on the wieght, I NEED TO JACK MY SQUAT UP to like 135 for reps.

well, i was starting to try them but i got major knee tendonitis, so i stopped, then i tried them again, major knee tendonitis.. the tendonitis came instantly, so i stopped early.. lunge iso fucks my knees up BAD, really bad.

as long as you have a six pack/are lean, then you're fine, don't worry about weight much.. being that lean is what you need for peak vert, it's an element, but don't think you need to drop mass, unless that mass is temporary water weight when you're all caff'd up for a jump session :F
