I had not stop... i just did not update here as frequent as i should.

My last update was about the time where Andy N, the 40yrs old dunk contacted me via utube.. suggesting me to STOP doing full approach jump as i am slowing down in my 2 final steps.
So i am back to D00days method... doing only single step jump with arm swing.

then a French sporting company recently opened a shop in Asia/China... approached me and want to feature me as one of their stories for a marketing campaign.
My so call, never give up yet never getting anywhere story got their attention.

So a few day of filming and photo shoot at the court, in the gym along with running around... sort of messed up my Training..  as I need to do some good jump instead of just 1 step jumps. 
also need to Fix up my Olifting (which i stopped for a long while) for filming purpose.    So thing got messy.

Then  Easter holiday came and i took at week off for vacation...  and when i came back... i still have to do 2 day of filming for that project.

So... the D000day 1 step jump sort of Stucked with me.. for 1 month almost.

I knew my run up jump and stationary jump has always been similar.  But i am quite sure my run up jump is usualy higher than my stand still or 1 steps.
through out this month of... 1 step jump... there has been time where my 1 steps jump got AS high as or VERY close to my run jump max jump... It is rare, but it is possible...   may be 2 out of 15 jump or so..

i think it all come down to the RIGHT arm swing with speed and power.... and also how fast i descent aka loading.
I try to swing my arm back.... before i descent... so that when i swing my arm down... it can add to the loading... (this does not really work..)
i tent to jump better than i ..... just... focus on swining my arm up hard thorwing my body up...   disregarding the arm going down phase.

Video recap throughout April:

6-10" to your vertical jump instantly if you do it right...lol.

i closed the video once he said that. don't care how good the info is, if it follows a statement like that, it isn't worth a second of someone's time.

I agree, i had the same feeling with that statement.. but i manage to watch the whole thing... lol..
6-10" to your vertical jump instantly if you do it right...lol.

also, that video is, in essence, the t0ddday method. take it piece by piece.

I agree also, I am still doing t0ddday method every time i am at the court.. Standstill x5, 1 step x5, full run up x5

but the LOOOONG final steps was never focused... so...

Nothing new here...
but I never really TRY to focus and Drill down what he suggested.

1. Plant Further form the rim
2. Much longer 3rd steps.


I Just keep thinking about speeding things up.
I do the Stand still, 1 step,  full run up.... I try to increase speed... arm swing.. everything.
but I try to take longer 3rd step a few times.. vert decreased an i gave up on it.   

I watched this video again today... may be i should just give it a bit more time.

190122 1/10 10km today
I had been jumping at lunch pretty for a few days now.  Since the VR 100km race started from jan 20 to feb 28.... I decided to start today.
Ate too much for dinner and.... dont want to run... but end up going out at 1030.... running more like jogging at a slow pace.. and finished 10km in 70min.
So I squatted last Sunday, Jumped every lunch and did 10km on Tuesday night.....


190123 Lunch Jump again
Yesterday (Tuesday) lunch jump session, leg was sore from Sunday squat, and at night I did the 10km.   Today... I jump again..  to my surprise... I feel more lose and boncy..
may be the 10km jog helped losing me up.... they call this recovery run after heavy squat session right?  I don't know..
Keep exercising....with out much of a structured plan...for now.


MEAN WHILE, I joined a Virtual Race... which require me to run 10 x 10km from Jan 20 to Feb 28.
with Chinese New year  holiday being within this time slot... it will be a real challenge.   Lets do this for the sick of weight control.

I have to question why you'd want to do this if you are serious about restarting your jump training now. You will lean out just doing 45min squat sessions 2-3x/week and eating right.

Thanks for keeping up with my update Acole.  I dont know... the medal awarded for this VR race is... a meaningful one.   And.. I thought.. doing something different every now and then.. would not be too bad.  So... there I go again.
