Bball practice.
Exhausting!
Got some good jumps in , all in extremely fatigued state , dropstep ~30'' , 2 and 3 steps mostly 32'' to 32,5''.
In a 2-step jump i got both hands 3d knuckle at rim.
In another 2-step jump touched 32'' on my way down , definately 33'' at peak , season best!
After seeing that everybody wanted me to dunk , tried 2 times but lost ball palming on my way up , FAIL!

Damn nice on the video!
It's actually so good that it looks more like a bad pro work than like a great amateur one.

That's somehow a great compliment!

« on: October 12, 2010, 07:25:21 am »oooh, i may have asked that before, forgive me if i forgotcool, ya video analysis would be best.. i remember seeing some really weird vert measuring device, which hooked some kind of tape measurer to your waist, but i don't see how that could work due to horizontal displacement.. was odd, need to find the link for it again one day, i've never seen anyone use it anywhere.
Nah , i just mentioned in my logs every now and then that i do them indoors , but relax man, you cant remember everything about everyone , you already remember way too much. I don't mean that personally , you are putting some serious effort maintaining this forum and training/helping everyone! Main point , spare the "forgive" shit!
Makes sense about the measuring device , a measuring tape that only releases tape with its beginning stuck to the floor would work.
But anyway , i dont really care about the absolute height number of the DJs , i mostly care tracking performance & improvement , so 120fps hangtime recording will be perfect.

« on: October 12, 2010, 04:34:38 am »you're reaching for the rim on dj's right?
Wrong!
I do DJs in my house , and the ceiling is low ( about 8'6'' ) so all i can do is head-height jumps.

Soreness: none
Injuries/aches : none
Plyos session.
- Dynamic warmup 10'
-4x10sec bilateral line hops ( 2 left-right / 2 back-forth )
-4x5 MR tuck jumps
-2x5 27'' depth drops
-2x5 18'' depth jumps
MR tuck jumps were better in terms of shin stress , but thats beause i did 4x5 instead of 3x10
Depth drops were much improved , great FA and very smooth too.
DJs more or less the same with last time , gotta start filming those to track performance.

« on: October 09, 2010, 05:11:58 pm »Nice work on that BSS. You trying to PR again soon on DLRVJ?
very nice man!!
<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dLy5xIjA6Z8" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dLy5xIjA6Z8</a>
Thanks guys!
LBSS currently its more realistic to chase season's best than PR. In the last 2 bball practices ive been jumping 32,5'' which is 2'' below my PR. 2'' is a lot and i cant even have a max jumping session , because the weather is rainy lately and bball practices just include random jumping between drills.
But i do intentioanlly suit the phase's ends to create a mini-peaks in Wednesday's bball practices. I need just 0,5'' more to get to 33'' ( that's 10'8'' for me , wrist at rim ), whenever i can do that i can also dunk , so current short term goal is get to 33'' - 33,5'' & finally fucking dunk on 10'.
On a sidenote , i just realised that this was the 1st workout that my BSS surpassed my squat!

9 October 2010
PHASE 1 - Cycle 2 - Stim Workout
Bodyweight@session : ~196
Injuries/aches : none
Soreness : none
Stim : 1 redbull 30 mins before lifting
MSEM SQUATS ( rest between reps ~45sec , rest between sets ~4min ):
3x1 : 209 - 209 - 209
3x1 : 231 - 231 - 231
3x1 : 253 - 253 - 253
209 & 231 sub-parallel , 254 half-squats.
Focus on form+depth ( controlled descend + looking slightly down ). Very happy with the 231 sub-parallel set.
MSEM BSS ( at smith machine , rest between reps ~20sec , rest between sets ~3'' )
3x1@220
3x1@264 , ( 3-rep-PR , all time PR is 2x286 )
220 was insane , free leg touching ground , going up rather explosive , "light weight"!
264 was great too , good form & speed up.
SINGLE LEG STANDING CALVE RAISES:
1x5@110
1x5@132
1x5@154
1x5@176
Great workout , caffeine + taurine + MSEM FTW!

500 reps in 10 mins? That's 50 reps a min , pretty much like 500 reps straight , WTF?

That's actually DE-motivational , half of this forum's members ( including me ) will never get 12 perfect reps @ 135kg
