^Agreed too.

Also, this was just 1 month ago:

Good goal, also very doable IF you cut out that manic depressive phase you keep hitting right after you do something good in your training.   Increasing the frequency of front squat, which for you might simply mean replacing back squat with front squat.  Looks like most of your pains have come after back squats anyhow, so no need to keep messing with something less specific to your goals. 

 Getting to 2x bw front squat will do much more for your athleticism than anything youll gain from back squatting regardless.

Focus and keep it simple man , don't let overthinking/overanalyzing distract you.

25 July 2013

Bodyweight@session : ~186
Soreness : glutes, hamstrings, calves, back, biceps, triceps.
Injuries/aches :  none

Went at the park.
Shot around and did random jumping for 1 hour. Felt very weak at shooting around etc, felt very uncoordinated at jumping, disaster.
Somehow though, although they felt terrible, jumps where higher. I only did dropsteps and RVJs, 28'' was easy and maxed a couple jumps at 30''
Also landed a clean dunk at the 9'8'' rim, first dunk after September 2012!  :wowthatwasnutswtf:  :ibjumping:

keep looking...
and then realise/remember his real size...

??? tempo sprints aren't supposed to be all-out.

True, i keep repeating that mistake, i name tempo runs the short interval sprinting sessions no matter the intensity.
Well if you think about it, although i am trying to go 100% they are still tempo runs  ( except from the first ones ) , because you can't do 5x80m all out sprints starting every 1:30 minutes...
But yeah, the term is wrong.

21 July 2013

Bodyweight@session : ~188
Soreness : quads, glutes and pecks , 2/5
Injuries/aches :  none

15 minutes jogging( ~8kmh ) + dynamic warmup

TEMPO RUNS:

5x80m@100%
12:x , 13:x , 13:x , 15:x , 16:x
Was starting every 1min 30 seconds( including the running time ).
Started good but legs got heavy at 4th and destroyed at 5th sprint.

5 mins rest

3x130m@100%
23:x , 25:x , 27:x
Pathetic, legs were jello, almost quit the 3d one.

Was planning to do 200m too but left hip flexor started bugging a bit so i cancelled it.

RIM JUMPS:
Decided to do a bunch of those before calling it a day. No sets, just 10-15 jumps with 30-45 seconds rest between each.
Bad but i expected much worse at that point, 24'' SVJ, 28'' dropstep , 29'' RVJ.  Got my wrist at the 9'8'' rim, silly ego boost is silly.

I'm at 7'11 with shoes

now see with that kind of reach i'd have dunked long ago. PITY ME DAMN YOU.  :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'(

No you wouldn't have dunked that much!
Unless you have adarq-like lob skills or can grip balls easily, the real world is that you will need to get 9'' above rim to rattle in a soft one hander.
That is 34'' , with the ball in your hands, so you need to be at 35''-36'' without it , give or take.
So since your PR is 35'' and that was a couple of times, you would have thrown down a couple of legit dunks at your best jumping days, but you would be able to throw down at will with smaller balls.

OR i just suck bigtime at dunking and i should have been able to throw down much better at 7'11'' / 33''-35'' that i was pre-injury.

400m Sprinting or Shorter / Re: Asafa Powell & Tyson Gay Fail Drug Tests
« on: July 18, 2013, 05:27:45 am »
Best example: James white.



I chose him from tdub, jusfly, aut etc because he jumps just as high, but he is 6'7'' and he is a profesional basketball player, trying to get a chance in the NBA from 2006 that he was drafted.


Second example:
http://www.draftexpress.com/nba-pre-draft-measurements/?year=All&sort2=DESC&draft=&pos=&source=All&sort=10

NBA draft measurements of ALL time, sorted by SVJ ( i think it has measurements form 1998 and on , whatever ).
Be amazed, there is only one person that got 40'' ( DJ Stephens this year ), while the majority is below 30'', by a ratio 2:1 ( !!! ). Yep, 2 out of 3 NBA drafts can't hit a 30'' SVJ.


Not saying something new here, just making more clear what kind of basketball beasts those guys are!
