self-loathing and frustration peaking at the moment. went to the gym, warmed up, felt good, had some good DSVJ (~31) during warm up, good sprints. on first DLRVJ, heel slipped. then, total CNS shut down. i tried to take a break but could barely move my legs to shoot baskets. it was bizarre. also, it was enraging. warmed up again and did some bounds -- i'm so bad at them that they don't really require much effort. but then i just felt done. sat around for five minutes trying to will myself to get on with the rest of my workout, failed, and decided, fuck it, i'll get up at dawn tomorrow and go to the gym before work.

fuck it.

 

No

confused. charlie francis died two years ago. how did you "recently" attend one of his seminars?

Read the title- it clearly says "(Copy and Paste)", which means it wasn't me that wrote this. I found this on another website and copied it across. The original links don't work because these seminar reviews were written 5+ years ago.

just saying you copy and pasted something is not how attribution works. you have to say where you copied and pasted it from. but now you have, so no worries.

BW = ???
SORENESS = hamstrings a tiny bit
ACHES/INJURIES = none
FATIGUE = moderate

- warm up

- sprint 6 x 5 yards
only had half the court

- depth jump 3 x 5

- knock out x 10 mins

- DLRVJ x 10-12
bad, all ~31. tried a few SLRVJ, too. collapse.

- skips 3 x 6

- line hop 3 x 20
8.3x, 8.9x, 8.6x

- power snatch/drills x 15-20 mins

- squat 2 x 5 x 290
warm up sets sucked, surprised at how strong these were.

- SS1: DB bench 10,10,18 x 40e
- SS1: chin up x 8,8,9
- SS1: pull down x 12,12,23
- SS1 info: each exercise started at the top of the minute. chin ups really bad. used a thicker band on the pull downs.
followed immediately by
- jump rope 20/40 x 5

- SS2: calf raise 10 x 90
- SS2: curl 10 x 25e
- SS2 info: 2 rounds

- stretch

i'd tried a few DLRVJ before the depth jumps but they were really terrible. even though i ended up jumping badly, i'm glad i went back and did some more after the knockout, which was just opportunistic. part of my problem is still just technique: i'm jump-stopping most of the time. more reps can't hurt, really.
