Full Squats - Paused - Maintenance
455 #186 | 465 #4 | 470 #1| 475 #7

BW  186-188lb.

Sun Mar 6

morning
315s-365-405
jump squat 45lb x8,8
SVJ x4
one arm cable rows 75lb x10,10

afternoon
315s-365-405
jump squat 45lb x8,8
SVJ x4
one arm cable rows 75lb x10,10
dips bw x20

* getting leaner lately. no work for 5 weeks now. i have this week left on vacation and be back on the work force again on march 16.
* i'll be bringing up the volumes of the jump squats for conditioning and ultimately max SVJ testing. the kaiser speed squats on the other gym is very CNS consuming. need better coaching for that.
* im doing jump squats with resets on the first set and focus more on jump height. the 2nd set is continuous and focuses more on quick drops and transitions. jump height here not a factor. goal is continuous squat jumps with 135lb smoothly.

Mon Mar 7

morning
315s-365-405
jump squat 45lb x8,8
SVJ x4
one arm cable rows 75lb x10
dips bw x20

* found a good SVJ mark on the other 24hr gym that did not have a bball court. used a hanging air duct. im still jumping good.
* left elbow still a little broken from the 90lb chins with stupid volumes i did a few weeks back. can still 20 rep bw dips - the tenderness is not as bad as before when i had my chin ROM cut a bit.

afternoon
315s-365-405
jump squat 45lb x10,10
SVJ x4
one arm cable rows 75lb x20

* kept the jump squats to rhythmic without any effort for peak jumps. i can squeeze in more volumes before i eventually burn out. SVJ improving.

Tue Mar 8

morning
315s-365
jump squat 45lb x10,10,10
SVJ x4
 
* BW 184-186lb. the squat jump volumes are calorie heavy. i was not happy about the 365 being a bit heavier this morning. i'l put too much effort to pause the 405 so i just skip it.
* will hold 184lb the leanest for now. it'll just be a matter of days before my face shrinks from the fat loss.
* did a bw chin and the left arm still feels not ready. will give it more rest days.

afternoon
315s-365-405
jump squat 45lb x10,10
SVJ x4
one arm cable rows 75lb x20

* did not do any caloric excess and was still lighter than usual. meal timings become important for workouts. i cannot easily pause the 405 tmrw morning at 9am if my last meal is at 7pm tonight.

Wed Mar 9

morning
315s-365-405
jump squat 45lb x8,8,8 | 95lb x4,4 | 135lb x2,2
SVJ x2

afternoon
315s-365-405
jump squat 135lb x2,2,2,2
SVJ x4
one arm cable rows 75lb x20

* BW 186lb. 405 was easy.  added midday nap to compensate for lower bw and more volumes of jumps.

Thur Mar 10

morning
315s-365-405
one arm cable rows 75lb x10
weighted situps 25lb x20

* right upperback beat from the loaded jump squats. rest for now. BW 184lb but was strong this morning. cheated a little by taking a protein shake pre workout to break the fast.
* added the ab routine on log. looks very empty if i rest the upperbody. i use a 25lb db behind the head and use the situp bench on highest setting.

afternoon
315s-365-405
one arm cable rows 75lb x10
weighted situps 25lb x20

* thought about the db shoulder press but left elbow does not feel 100% yet. skip the jumping. need to refresh a little.

Kingfish you indeed have FREAKISH genetics, but if you don't mind me asking, what were your starting SVJ numbers before you starting lifting? I just want to see what can be accomplished through hard work. Thanks!

thanks.

before lifting, there was already road biking since i was 10 yrs old that gave me very thick quads. SVJ at mid 20s.
i remember because the bball net  had 3 colors and i can standing jump the bottom of the top color. 

lol talking about genetics with a geneticist.  :P

relax. i'm just mentally tough. i can take a lot of beating. i'll keep on going.  :strong:

Sun Feb 28

morning
315s-365-405
chins 90lb x3,3
seated inclined hammerstrength machine press alt. 45lb+25lb x10
dips bwx20

* building the upperbody push (shoulder/tris) with single arm alternating press. maybe this time, i will really not tense the lowerback because of the added stability from the non-moving weight. i was able to get 60lb dbs 10 reps easily on the right arm, 8 on the left doing them alternating - 10 right, left on hold. then break. 10 left while right is on hold. works so far. i was at 80lb db shoulder press before i stopped due to fatigue of the lowerback.
* need more upperbody push volumes because my 90lb weighted chins is pulling away. need little balance. i can do 5-6 reps on chins if i rest more and dont do them as often.

afternoon

Mon Feb 29

morning
315s-365-405
chins 90lb x3
standing alternate db shoulder press 50lb x10,10

* doing so many different things for the upperbody push. i can't make up my mind on which movement do. dbs feel most natural. its either seated or standing. it has to be alternating for lowerback fatigue. the hammerstrength machine could use a little more bottom ROM hence the use of dbs instead.

afternoon
315s-365-405
315x16 no-pause
chins 90lb x4,3
standing alternate db shoulder press 50lb x10,10

* could have done 18 reps and really fight for 20 on 315s. took it easy and stopped at 16. saved the 20s for tmrw or the next. bw 188 at gym. 315x20 back to back days before at low 190s bw.

afternoon
315s-365-405
chins rest 1
seated alternate db shoulder press 50lb x10,10,10,10
dips rest 1

* building up volumes of the upperbody push by seated db shoulder press. legs too sore to do more 315 volumes. need 2 sets of sleep for this to work. i only had a straight 9 hr last night. still on vacation mode with 2 more weeks left.

Wed Mar 2

morning
315s-365-405
chins 90lb x2
seated alternate db shoulder press 60lb x10
dips bw x0 rest

* weighted chins now tired. need to take time off. left shoulder tender a bit. nothing broken. db shoulder press still improving.
* squats with really domd. quads feel good for singles. the soreness makes my legs feel thicker. could 425 this morning.

* SVJs drills with double hand rim grabs. bw 188lb. both palm at rim for 35"+. need to be ampd with pickup games for clean dunks.. but i'm getting to old for that. lol. maybe some other time.

Sat Mar 5

morning
315s-365-405
dips bw x20
one arm cable rows 75lb x10,10

* resting the vertical pulls. got excited with the weighted chins. horizontal pulls with cable rows feel good. really focusing on pulling with the elbow and taking the full ROM - wrist to shoulder with elbows all the way pulled. a quarter row is too much waste of time.

afternoon
315s-365-405

Injury, Prehab, & Rehab talk for the brittlebros / Re: Low back pain
« on: February 28, 2016, 01:00:10 pm »
My back is really messed up... it wakes me up during the night when I turn on the other side, for example. Thanks for the links, but they're hard to follow/understand.

I think the only thing I can do is step away from training (from gym work) and revert back to my regular, normal, untrained athleticism, 12-inch vert level. I can't imagine my back ever recovering while continuing to train, as bad as it is right now. Wonderful news.

you RVJ peeps eventually retire first. be thankful you don't need to fuse something there for the pain. you won't be able to tie your shoelace anymore  if you did .

you have dunk vids. you made it already. move on.  :strong:

robotrip + squats = profit

squats were cool. 20 rep+ anything is making my cardio redline.

That gym's crazy! Never understood the point of all that fanciness though, especially since those gyms tend to NOT have many very useful things like a freakin squat rack. Well hey I guess it makes some chains lots of money!

this aria gym came close. it had all but a squat rack. the smith they had was not so bad. the bar travel on my squat is nearly vertical. doing it on this smith did not feel very weird.

* will add more mass to the upperbody with more consistent weighted chins/dips. my left elbow is not broken at all and does not get strained from the dips after i figured out that i was doing them too narrow.

Injury, Prehab, & Rehab talk for the brittlebros / Re: Low back pain
« on: February 01, 2016, 11:42:55 am »
figure out what you are doing wrong that caused it first. the best treatment is to stop doing more harm to it.

i find "form rolling" using the smith machine bar most effective in digging into the lowerback area.

when i strained my lower back using the calf sled raises too much, i can only sleep flat on my back otherwise the pain wakes me up.                     

good luck
