Progress Journals & Experimental Routines / Re: vag's journal : Age vs Vertical
« on: April 26, 2010, 02:24:30 pm »
Pic from 24 April dunk session.
Its an off the backboard attempt with 2 steps lead in RVJ.
YES , its a miss!
Rim = 9'10''
Wrist = 8'' above ( 10'6'' / 31'' RVJ )
Watch = 10'' above ( 10'8'' / 33'' RVJ )
Looks like ~31,5'' to me

- left lower back bugging
- glutes, hamstrings, and vmo = mega sore
162
shadow boxing:
- 20 rounds
- rounds 10-20 = bionic
- man, i go through this stage where, first 5 or so rounds are nice whatever, but then i get super loose out of nowhere and speed picks up bigtime.. it's lasting every round and im not getting as fatigued.
- in 20th round my rotator bugged out a little but i did some stupid ass punch, form broke down, only punch ive done like that in months.. stupid shit.. itll be alright tho.

Peer Reviewed Studies Discussion / Re: Long jump, Triple Jump
« on: April 26, 2010, 04:51:01 am »Bone density improving in two weeks? I don't think so.
But really, the advantage of plyos vs. strength training is that only the plyos overload/or load at whatever intensity - the lower legs. In the squats and deadlifts the lower leg isn't nearly as active as in a plyometric effort, even at medium intensity.
i don't get why there has to be an 'advantage' though, plyos & strength training both offer different advantages, they go hand in hand.
but you're definitely right on the lower-leg aspect, that is very important though and often overlooked/neglected. explosive/bouncy ankles = more speed & more vert.

Nutrition & Supplementation / Re: Beetroot juice & endurance
« on: April 26, 2010, 12:38:37 am »this is sweet, I've never heard of this either. And this is quite affordable as well, minus the expense of the juicer. More affordable than cordyceps, but cordy is totally worth it - well I'll look for a study and post it later, but I'm have to go to a yoga class now... with friends of course, but I hope it will increase my recovery.
I just wonder, these types of ergogenic aids are targeted towards the endurance athlete; do you know of how (biochemically or w/e) this could help a sprinter? Like as the ATP/AP is running low, maybe this could do something? Cuz then us anaerobic athletes could benefit from this as well.
not sure about the beetroot and anaerobic performance, havn't looked into it that much. For anaerobic athletes, creatine definitely works.
who here is giong to try some beetroot juice?
tkxii ???? bis0n ????i'd rather buy it pre-juiced, just thinking about blending up beets and drinking it is making me want to puke.. hah

« on: April 26, 2010, 12:26:11 am »that look's really close, what do you think he hit? He definitely got above the exit sign, after that I can't really see clearly
im thinking around 12' or so..
his reach is probably like 92", 144" - 92" = 52.. could be a little higher or lower than 12', but its around there.
flyin.
