but yeh despite all the excuses i know my squat just sucks :(

2207
122.5kg Squat  :personal-record:


207.5kg deadlift  :personal-record:

does not compute.

I squat with high bar position. I have long legs and a short torso, which makes it harder to squat. On the other hand i have long arms for my height along with the short torso so that makes deadlifting easier. Before i started focussing on increasing my vertical a few months ago i rarely put any attention into training legs.

I had a whacked dream last night. I was back in high school in year 10 and these 3 year 11 guys pulled a gun on me. Some nerd from my school was about to go to prison and after i tried to hit 1 of these year 11 dudes but i missed and when i hit it was like it was doing nothing not connecting or anything. Than i grabbed 1 of the year 11 dudes and his friends with the gun bailed on him and he was like pleading to me scared or sum shit.

My standing jumps sucked today, I just couldn't push off the floor properly, kept shuffling my feet before I jumped. Running jumps were average-good, getting about the same height as I have been in the past with my basketball shoes, which increase my SR by about 1cm or so. I'm still having trouble when I try to increase my run-up speed on my RVJs, which is annoying as I have actually improved my acceleration and top speed a far bit through my sprints and bounding. I want to transfer that improvement to my RVJs. Just need more practice with jump technique and just doing more pure jumps sessions I think (tempted to start long jump training again because I never had problems with this when I was doing jumps training regularly).

Yeh it's weird. You'd think if you progress in 1 area (in your case top speed and acceleration) another area would naturally follow (run up speed RVJs) but it isn't always the case. My SVJ has improved like 6 inches in the past couple months but i wreckon my running vert is still around the same or only increased 1 or 2 inches max. But it's probably coz i havn't done much/any sprints or plyos for months and have been mainly focussing on strength. So yeh it's probs the same in your case just run up speed specific for RVJ and just practicing on RVJ's a lot.
Are you still on holidays?
