u are actually right that i don't plan too much... dunno how to do that stuff, too technical for me.

with a game every weekend, i try to hit the weights once a week, mostly the 1st half. if time permits, i'd then throw in a sprint and depth drop, depth jump session. we don't actually practise alot, its just a rec league haha.

haha, damn u work out nearly every other day!

how old are you? ur ht/wt, and other stuff? basically, a quick bio?

889
yea... previously before starting the speed squats, i could go to 120.

but im just glad i didnt lose too much strength after 10 weeks of laying off regular squats.
i felt i could hit one rep of my previous max, but i didnt want to push things..

will be trying some of that MSEM routine next week...
one of these sessions, every 2 weeks or so eh?

sorry guys... wat is MSEM?
googled it, and all i got was some educational stuff haha.

also vag, how heavy are you? are u able to dunk now?

893
question now is, what should i do now...
i really wanna dunk so bad hahahaha!!

894
hmm...

just today on my way to work, i was sizing up my progress so far...

its been almost 3 months since i started logging my workouts. took me abt 2 to 3 months i suppose, to get to my strength levels before i started logging.

when i started, i could get a joint or 2 of my fingers over the rim at best. this is running and jumping off 1 leg. couldnt get rim off 2 legs.

right now, off 2 legs, i got abt 3/4 of my palm over the rim, abt 2 inches more before i can get the whole hand over, tho it was just that one time.

off 1 leg, my best is actually lower then my 2 legged PR, but im gettin more consistent jumps near my pr of abt half the palm over.

all those squats probably helped..
i realised i was bitching abt not seeing any gains... but recapping now, i actually gained quite abit for my 2 legged, and for my 1 legged i gained abt 3 inches. that would work out to be an inch a month..

895
400-450m fast jog

sprints
4 x 45m max efforts.

pullups
6 x 8 reps

depth jumps, knee height
3 x 5

896
Haha, thx for the quick replies as usual! As u can probably see by now, I hv little understanding of how to plan or workout properly...

I decided to ditch the normal squats cos I was stagnating at 120kg, and I didn't see any gains, despite the not good, but not bad numbers. Reckoned it was due to my inability to trf or use the strength properly, ie not very explosive, so I tot some speed squatting might address tt. Didn't know it's supposed to be of higher vol either... Haha!!

The rea squats were done with a 10kg plate cos that's wat I tot rj was holdin onto in his vid, also cos my arms were abit shot.. And lastly, also cos I tot it was more an exercise of minimizing gct... Haha!!!

God I need some help haha!

I read on tvs tt sprinting and vert trainin compete for the same resources, so preferably I shud cut out the sprints?

897
i think im relatively strong enough... but im just not getting high enough... :(
kinda disheartening...
