at work now... gonna hit the gym later, thanks for putting it up in time!

on each week version for day 2, u have workout 1 and workout 2.
so do i do both in a day, or #1 for a week, #2 for the next, meaning the 2 week programme u posted is actually a 1 month program?

the overall volume looks like something i can handle, lower than the workouts i normally go thru, but i'll see how it goes...

8 sets of 200 stiff legged jump ropes? that'd essentially be 1600 reps of stiff leg ankle hops, no?
i mean, i'll probably do ankle hops, in place of actually skipping the rope, cos i dun have one. but mayb i'll go get myself a rope anyways...
either way, i'll try, but im not too optimistic that i can actually do 1600 reps haha!

812
nice nice... thanks alot andrew, if i ever get to dunking the only reason would be your help!

after reading thru jack's articles at his site, it looked like i am severely lacking in the power and rfd section haha... which i suppose is kinda true, if my 2 step walkin VJ and running VJ has less than 4 inches between them.. or maybe severe lack in technique.

either way, more work to be done, lets go lets go!

looks like ur enjoyin ur hoops again...

38 inches at 6'8... that would be jawdropping to see in person, for me..

814
ah.. i see that its very little weight work, mixed with more actual jumping...
is it a must to have them in the same workout?

the reason why im askin this is cos the courts at the gym i go to, they're always kinda packed.
and there's a court just 5 mins away from my place, so if we could split them into weights day, and court days, it'd be easier.

but if there's a reason why u plan them like that, i'll definitely try to work things out, mayb get to the gym earlier or something.

you'd have to explain some of the terms there im afraid man...

whats a 1-step lead in RVJ?
what core exercises do u recommend? i normally dun concentrate too much on these, i just slap on a few sets at the end of each workout if i still have any energy left..

jumping for PRs... i could do that during warmups... but there isnt much time to be honest, each weekend 3 games are planned back to back.

as for feelin fresh or not on sunday after the game... that'd depend on how tough the week's work was. if both weight sessions tire me out, and i dun recover in time, i go to the game on sat at less than 100%, then sunday i dun really remember how i feel, i was always just anticipating the next workout. but i'd imagine i dun feel any much worse...

815

hip today was alright.. but if u look at rip's link,

i'll be hitting the gym tmr if i can. dunno abt the hip tho, din get to squat last week, due to said frens haha.

but adarq, i'll be able to hit the gym abt as often as i want for the next 1, 2 months. only caveat is that i hope to have at least fri off, so that i will at least be a little better for the saturday game.

cant wait, i have a feeling im on the cusp of a breakthrough! *fingers crossed*


818
good numbers on those BSS man, i could never do them very well..

819
wanted to have a session today, but frens at work wanted me to 'show' them wat to do, some pointers and stuff, and wanted to do it at the smaller gym.

fml. no rack, all machines. didnt know what to do with myself.
and all my frens wanted to do was to horse around. sigh, wasted day.

gonna start on some new block, pending planning by adarq, but i reckon its gonna be a power block or something.

so before i start... mayb i'll update status abit.

the last game yesterday, was able to get an inch or so above, from a 2 step walk in.
RVJ tho, is still abt the same as the last time i put up the vid, tho it did feel easier.

lets hope stuff works out!

820
sounds like it tho! if so, then wat does it mean?


821
thanks a mil adarq, i'll be sure to ask for ur help to come up with something...

this bit, not sure if its the hip flexor joint or somethin, but its where the leg meets the hip, its been bugging abit.

kinda disappointed that the vert is still abt the same as 2 months ago, at week 17..
when the weightages for most of the lifts have improved some.
i mean, the squat's gone up like 20kg or so, but there's no noticeable jump in vert.

fuck.
