I took psychology in college. I cant help it im a thinker by nature. At least you guys try to be as nice as possible, I'm sure I get on your nerves, but once I get interested in something, I just want to know everything. I even ask questions about stuff I already know, just to hear others opinion, but now that I know it drives raptor crazy! Jk Thanks anyway  

Read this Kelly Baggett's article , very helpful/relevant:

Quoting one specific type ( you , me , lbss , raptor and many other people ) :

For what is worth , i agree with raptor , you think too much! Everyday you come up with a new question that usually includes the possibility of changing your training scheme. Its natural , we've all been there and done the same mistake , but it's still is a mistake!
Don't worry too much about the details , like i told you when you asked me for help and like raptor says above , just focus on on getting stronger on all basic lifts. Stick to that training scheme that Lance wrote for you , get stronger and then we can re-evaluate.
You can keep reading and learning new stuff all the time of course, but in general vert training is quite simple and there are no secrets or shortcuts. :D

20 mins leg drain + lower body stretching

26 Feb 2011

Bball game
Legs still sore , quads & glutes 2/5 , hamstrings & calves 1/5.
Surprisingly good endurance and jumping.
Rims were bent , pitty i wasn't recovered , could have dunked easily.
Did only 2 rim jumps,  i got 7'' above on 9'11'' off 1 step ( 31'' ) and 4'' above on 9'10'' ( 27'' ) SVJ. No RVJs , didn't trust my legs for that.
