I guess my core is getting stronger

130716 Quick 40 min upper session
Upper circuit routine x 3
added
- Hamgstring curl
- Seated cable back pull
- Dumbell Fly
- Hangclean Pratice

130717 Quick Quick 30 min session before Work Dinner gathering
took some office time to reasearch about adding hangclean and squat in the same session, and end up  seeding Def. (American Football coach) and also Kelly writing about Hangclean is not a must for explosive training.  (Jump squat and single leg dumbell jump was discussed instead).  With my ultra tight schedule today, I go right in to some jump squat.

Jump Squat
45lbs....1x10 warm up range of motion
67lbs....1x5 Qtr squat depth jump
89lbs....1x5 Qtr squat depth jump
95lbs....1x5 Qtr squat depth jump
115lbs....2x4 Qtr squat depth jump
125lbs....2x4 Qtr squat depth jump
135lbs....4x3 Qtr squat depth jump

PS. I took a sec or 2 rest between each jump, I give all out in every jump.  At first I lower my self slower.... but soon, I try to lower myself faster to simulate real jump.  I try to use my Glute more instead of using all my quad...and I also try to flex my calf by pointing my toe down.  Any how, I had a feeling that I did not do a good job on my ankle (interms of triple extension.)

Got change and Rush to Work dinner with a wet dark mark on both my armpit.  Colleague was asking me about it... and what I said is....  "it is rain... lol"

"Doing fast and slow work in the same workout will be counterproductive. Training slow teaches your body to move slowly, but that doesn’t mean there’s not a time when slower
movements will help you make gains in size and strength. The point is that these cycles need to be strategically planned and the body needs to be structurally balanced. Strength and balance provide the building blocks for teaching the body to move fast and jump high."

Message: Fast Lift and Slow lift should not be preformed on the same day, or same training block, it should be cycled.


Correct me if I am wrong, my limited knowledge told me to squat fast and avoid grinding up slowly during squat training.  Train for power with speed; squat Fast down and up in a control manner.  When you see yourself grinding up, it is near time to stop, unless I am trying to develop 1RM.

So, here I am... I train with the powerlifting background, with weight going up gradually until i can not squat.
To avoid squatting slow, I do my squat in following method:

Pure warm up - slow speed, focus on range of movment
20% - 60% 1RM -reactive squat speed, quick down quick up
60%-70% 1RM - Paused Squat, but explode up from the bottom
80%-90% 1RM - Regular Powerlifting Squat, No pause, Ok speed and try to rebound from the bottom up
100% 1RM - Either Grind up or Fail....
(total about 8-10 set of squat)

I am wondering if the way I am training is good.... to train for vert. 

P.S.
I took the time to review Vertical Jump Bible, and saw few Kelly's routine incorporate Jump squat and Full squat on the same day also.... so... um.. what do you guys think?



BTW.... an update of my recent jump attempt..
finally Wrist is so close to the rim.

My core seems to be stronger then back in the days when I first tried BoingV.  I recall I have a ultra hard time doing this core work at home by myself.  But now, it seem I am able to do it with additional weight.

PS. my weight is at 184lbs. and upperbody BF test show 15%.  Power to weight ratio is squat, went down compare to pre-holiday.  :-X

385bs...Failed

I ran with 5 fingers again last week; This time I did 20 min with 100% forth foot strike (compare to 15min of 20% forth foot).  Right after the 20 mins, the calves started to have pain, and the pain lasted until today, 4 days already.  I had the exact same feeling every time I started lifting heavy with calves raise.  The pain last a long time but eventually go away.  Lets hope the same will happen with this barefoot running test.
( I started to wear compression calf sleeve all day to promote recovery... did it 3 days but does not seem to work...)

Squat
143lbs ... 1x10 Paused Squat
187lbs ... 1x6 Reactive Squat
231lbs ... 1x6 Fast Squat
275lbs ... 1x5 Normal
319lbs ... 1x3 Paused Squat
341lbs ... 1x2 Easy Normal Squat
363lbs ... 1x2 Small Grind  :personal-record: (I Consider this a PR, I don't recall doing 2 Reps of 2BW Squat before)
385lbs ... 1x failed (2.14BW Failed)

Hang Clean
88lbs ... 4x6


I am trying to run on weekend so that I can last longer in a ball game.  Ran with the 5 finger for 15 min last weekend, and did some forth foot striking.  The next few days joint and tendon of the leg is sore, the Achilles tendon and calves is especially sore.  I am hoping by running/bouncing on calves, some reactive strength can be build?  Got to research a bit to confirm.
