  If you want to know something about Jacks programs, ask him.  If you want to know about the difference between training for beach vs indoor volleyball, then you need to be more specific with your question, and include what you currently do that is/is not working.

 We arent going to make you a program man.  There are several up on this site from both of us, and in different threads if you look around.  Kelly is a good guy too, as are his programs.

Just minimize the assistance work, and do as much needed, not as much as you can, to keep improving.  There is really no exacts, since everyone is different, but youve been training for a good while, so your recovery should be pretty good.  I would do something like

a.  explosive/dynamic/ neural wake up -  4 sets x 3-5 (hang snatch, power clean, jump squat, etc.)

b. main lift (squat/dead/pause squat/pin squat/front squat) 4-5 sets x 3-6 , can be ramped, can be straight sets, depending on how you feel that day. 

c. p-chain/hamstring balance (rdl, ghr, reverse hyper, gm) 3 x 5-8

d. lower leg/calf (standing/seated calf raise)  2 x 15-20


** on days that you feel good and recovered, do a little more volume (the higher end of the set/rep scheme and use straight sets instead of ramped on the main exercise).  On days you dont feel recovered and/or beat up, use the workout as more of a cns wake up and activation day, and ramp the sets on everything. 

  For example the 4 sets of snatches with a top weight of 185 would go something like , 135 x 5, 155x 4, 165 x 3, 175 x 3, 185 x 3.  On a day you feel well and rested, it would look something like, 135 x 1, 160 x 1, 185 x 5, 185 x5, 185 x 5, 185 x 5.  Do the same with the squat/deads, and other exercises.  This will involve a degree of auto regulation so that you dont burn yourself out, and on days your body holds you back you account for it, as well as taking advantage of the days you are able to progress.  Try to consistently add weight to the bar when you can.

Okay, so basketball season started and I have three practices a week Monday Wednesday and Friday in the evening (20:30 PM)
I usually do lifts Tuesday and Thursday, one day upperbody one day Squats and Deadlifts.
The question is how should i train and what should i focus on the days i'm not practicing.
Keep in mind that Saturday or Sunday will be game day soon.
I was thinking of doing another day of lifting on the day not game day, but that means i can't do dunks in that day because the gym is only open for 2 hours at lunch time during weekends.
So what do you think?


 I would put the squat day first in the week, the upper second, closer to the game day.  There are a ton of different combinations that will work, youll just have to play it by ear and see how youre recovering.  If your practices arent that intense, you might want to add a little bit of lower, neural type work on the second day, and that may help with performance game day.  If youre going all out and hard practices, that wont be as good an idea. 

  Make sure you foam roll/stretch after workouts and practices, its a huge difference in how quickly you can recover and staying healthy throughout the season.

 Yes, go to the gym so that you have access to more resistance.

 Yes, change your routine to incorporate some basic barbell lifts.

 
 Stop worrying so much about minutia, rest according to how you feel, and get stronger.  The things you need to be worried about are adding more weight to the bar, and how your squat form is, not rest intervals and whats happening on a cellular level in the endocrine system.

 the reason youre doing 15 reps is because you said you didnt have any more weight than that.  Rest enough between sets to fully recover and no more.   :o

  Need to fix that squat form man.  You have your toes pointed pretty far out, if youre going to do that youre going to have to push your knees out so that they track over the big toe, theyre rotating in every time you start the concentric.  I would turn your toes a little straighter ahead, then push out to the sides of the feet slightly.

   Also, those squats are getting higher and higher as the set goes on.  Back off the weight a little bit and focus on hitting solid depth in good form, slow down on the eccentric until you get a solid groove ingrained.

 Last, youre doing a good job of trying to be explosive on the way up, but most the good from that happens at the bottom part, so dont come up onto the toes at the top, focus on being explosive down low, and control the top.

I won the SportArena Dunk Contest with 1 hand over 3 people, dunk off guy's hand holding the ball at 11"4' (3.45m), Reverse pump over a 6"6' guy, 2 hand over front of the car from someone's hand. I'll hopefully have some footage soon.


 awesome nightfly, congratulations man!@!@!

Strength, Power, Reactivity, & Speed Discussion / Re: Leg Stiffness???

Ok so get to at least squatting 2.0xBW. What is a standard like that for the RDL? Like is it 1.5, 1.0 or something? They help me with making goals.

If your squat is a legitimate full squat, and youre an athlete worried about sprinting speed, you want to keep your rdl fairly close to your squat, especially if youre using a high bar squat.  

Quote
Are calf raises beneficial for getting the calves stronger?

yes.

Quote
Do they not cause ankle problems?

Not if theyre done correctly, in fact, they will help strengthen the ankles and aid in preventing problems, along with making you a better athlete with better feet.

Quote
If they were to be done what would be the set and rep scheme?

higher reps tend to work better on calf raises due to the short range of motion and time under tension.  3-4 sets of 12-20 works well.

Quote
HOw do you know if your calves are strong?

youll feel it when jump and sprint, also walking around.  Youll have an extra "pop" when you contact the ground instead of the ankles collapsing at higher forces.

Quote
What kind of low level reactive work and jumps?

there are about 1000 different things you can do, low hurdle hops, line hops, square drills, etc... Anything thats in that intensity range and category will work.

also stuck, you can superset the bench/pull ups and push press/chins if youre pressed for time, just do the push then go immediately to the pull, then rest.  Thats a good way to do things anyway, a lot of times youll feel fresher on the following exercise.

 Yep, do this..

workout 1

jump snatch 3 x 3

squat 3 x 5 (same weight each set)

bench press- 3 x 5 (same as squat)

rdl - 2 x 8

pull ups - 2 x max reps

plank = 1 min hold x 2


workout 2

hang clean 3 x 3

squat 3 x 3 (use 10lbs more than mondays workout)

push press or press- 3 x 8

chin ups- 3 x max reps

ghr or leg curl- 2 x 8

hanging leg raises- 2 x max reps



** you can add any extra work like curls/pull downs at the end if you feel good, if not, just do whats on the page.  Use a weight that allows all reps to be completed in good form on squat, then add 10 lbs to it the next (3 x 3) workout.  The weight you used on the 3x3 workout will become the next weeks 3x5 weight.  Be sure to play ball and jump plenty, you will have more time for it this way.
