@adarq: This is gonna sound like whining, but there was literally no space to do ME jumps until like 8:15, IOW until I was over an hour into the workout and had done my squats and everything. ME would have been, ahem, weak. I can usually get there either early or late, but yesterday the timing just sucked.

So, you might call that stupid, but it wasn't the stupid thing I was talking about.

nice workout mayne! decide against training at SSPT?

Thanks man. Yeah, for now I think it's just too far away. My gym is getting crowded as hell most weeknights, which is annoying. But the location just can't be beat.

Starting to think I'm going to come out of this little stretch without much improvement at all. But I'll cross that bridge when I come to it. I did something extra idiotic during tonight's workout. Bonus points to anyone who can figure out what it was.

warm up
jump rope
foam roll
core stretches
more jump rope

work
tuck jump 2x15
pogo 2x5
REA squat 2x3x95

So after downing 15 pounds of protein powder in last 2-3 months I have swithced to true protein based on recommendations from this forum. I have tried, Cel whey, ON Gold whey before. True protein came in a plain carton and plain bag with no lables, I ordered 25 pounds! to get the recession wpi/wpc blend, I also ordered two natural flavors, chocolate and vanilla. Total bill was 155 some dollars so the eventual cost is $6.2/lb. Cheapest i could ever find. As for tasted, I don't mind it at all. These days my morning shakes consist of a Egg whites from 2 eggs, 60 g (2 scoops) of whey pp, 2 bananas, a spoon of dried coconut powder, a cup of skim milk. No sugar. I don't even need the flavor. It tastes yummy just like that! I use a mason's jar and a hand mixer that I bought from amazon, it cleans so easy.

No complaints so far. Thanks for the recommendation LBBS.True protein rocks!

Just saw this. Glad to pass on the recommendation.

Also, just found out, anyone who wants can use the product code BAN966 at True Protein and get 5% off the cost of the order.

I saw the name of this thread as "Advanced Theory & Programming of the Human Orgasm."

Gotta say, I'm pretty disappointed, guys.  :pissed:

bit of a mixed bag today. jumps were meh, but I think the DL is a PR for a set of 5. scaled bench and rows way back to focus on form.

warm up
shoot around -- mixed, mostly bad. I think having my glasses on complicates things.
core stretches
tuck jumps x10
pogos x5

work
sprint x4x15y
1-step jumps x10
2-step jumps x a few

squat 3x5x260 -- last rep on first and last sets was a little good-morninged

BOR 2x8x115
ab wheel roll outs 2x20
side plank x45s/ea

cool down
walk home

Life/work has gotten in the way of training this week. Way not enough sleep + high stress = worthless training session today. Had to be at work at 7 AM today so last night was even less sleep than the rest of the week (~5 hours).

warm up
shoot hoops -- awful, couldn't focus, form sucked, blah
foam roll
core stretches -- even more tightness than usual in hip flexors

work
sprints x4 -- slow
1-step jumps x6-8 -- one 30, one 29.5, everything else ~29, just felt really shitty

Canned it there because there was no way I was putting any kind of weight on my back. Gonna eat, veg out for a little bit, go to bed super early and go get it tomorrow.

I don't like how Zach is butchered as an example of a failed diet in this ridiculous thread. His goal was to get bigger and stronger, both of which he accomplished very well. His goal was not to enter a physique contest or to be an underwear model. Just get over it, that there are people who couldn't care less if they have a six pack or not. Also notice that those who cry the loudest about this being an example of how not to approach eating and training are often also those who never got an average kid as strong as fast - good diet or not.

Would I encourage eating this way for an athlete that wants to jump higher? No, probably not since athletes will usually need to be in contest shape for a big proportion of the year. But if the objective is to get as strong as possible as fast as possible eating a ton of stuff with GOMAD is likely going to meet your needs very well.
