thanks t0ddday. i do have the constant nagging sense at the back of my mind, when i'm in pain or really tired, that i'm just a pansy and if i could push through more i'd do better (while recognizing that pain is there for a reason and i should not abuse myself), so i appreciate your saying that.
i'll email you a testimonial in a minute.
also, next is definitely getting a dunk on video. after that...? i'm open to suggestions. sprinting may be out because pakistan is happening, probably in late may.

MORNING
WEIGHT: ???
SORENESS: glutes a little (?)
ACHES/INJURIES: low back a little tight, as it has been off and on for a couple of weeks -- even during pistols, which is new
MENTAL STATE: a little sleepy but good
- warm up
- skater jumps x 20,20
- one-step RVJ x 5
startlingly good, hit 33 on first jump
- DLRVJ x ~15
also good but not great. hit one really hard with the dodgeball, felt like i actually cocked back a little. missed a bunch of others. dropoff was swift and severe, though.
- bound-bound-jump x 3,3,3
barely 30
- depth jump @14" x 3
not even 30
EVENING
WEIGHT: ???
SORENESS: none
ACHES/INJURIES: right toe, low back a little tight
MENTAL STATE: good
- warm up
- DLRVJ x 8
good not great, didn't get one as high as my peak this morning. form felt weird, not getting low enough.
- paused speed squat 290 x 5,5
first set was exceptionally smooth and powerful
- DL 325 x 1,1
low back was not having it, form off
ran out of time. going to awesome concert.

MORNING
WEIGHT: ???
SORENESS: none
ACHES/INJURIES: none
MENTAL STATE: kind of slow but good
- warm up
- skater jump x 20
- one-step RVJ x 5,5
- two-step RVJ x a bunch
just working on getting low and getting my feet out in front in the plant so that my knees don't travel forward. not very good height.
EVENING
foam roll but otherwise fuck-all. was so exhausted. long day at work although it was partly my fault because i forgot about a deadline until like 5 PM and then i had to scramble to get this report out.

« on: March 28, 2016, 02:40:54 pm »in your videos and i have seen other dunkers either wipe the bottom of their shoes or apply something to the bottom of the shoes, is it dust so to make it grip more to the floor type used on courts.
the opposite of dust. i wipe sweat on the bottoms of my shoes to make them stick. can't tell you how dusty that floor is.

« on: March 28, 2016, 01:26:37 pm »Maybe we should analyse how he ended up with this PR day... what preceded this? What happened in the last week or so, how did everything unfold?
My mind can't analyse jack shit right now as I'm headed towards even deeper depression, so can anybody summarize?
it's a good question. the only correlation i can suggest is that there seems to be a positive relationship between squatting heavy and then having 3-4 days of no weights and minimal intense work. most of the times i've PR'd jumps it's been on weekends after i missed a squat workout later in the week for some reason or other, usually not on purpose. i've also jumped best around late morning or midday. yesterday's milestone was achieved after breakfast but some of the other best jumping days have been fasted.
here are some vids from saturday. can't wait to get one up of an actual dunk.
i was frustrated.
