I think the general consensus is: Do the Session A: 3x8
                                                     and Session B: 3x5

but do your bounds, barbell skips, depth drops, sprints before hand or you're going to spin your wheels again. I did a couple years of hypertrophy work for my glutes, hamstrings and quads. Sure it made me more athletic, but I'm certain I'd be jumping a good number of inches higher than I am now, if only I had included my plyos while getting bigger.

That's the reason I was the guy RDL'ing 170kg for reps but only single leg jumping 31 inches. If I actually trained to jump higher (What a shock if you want vert huh?) and let the muscle gain take care of itself through getting stronger and diet, I would be jumping higher than I am now. That is my opinion and experience.

Strong post. This has been my experience, as well. I can DL 370# at a bw of 168 but my BEST running jumps are 30.5". That's because I spent a long time wanting to get stronger to get my vert better but not actually jumping while I was doing it. In retrospect, this was beyond stupid.

Yes but I won't be able to jump this winter since it will be cold outside, and I don't WANT to jump while gaining weight (muscle and fat). I want to only strength train.

This is dumb. See above.

And no, I can't "eat like an athlete". I already have irritable bowel syndrome and feel like puking all day long (literally all day long) so that's a no-no for me. I try to but I can't. The word "eat" make me feel like I want to puke.

If you're sick, get some help!

12:15 AM and I'm still awake because of the stupid bodybuilding.com girls pics threads.

I am a fucking idiot. Good night.

6:34 am and i'm still awake because of the IRC's.

:/

Yeah but you don't have to wake up at 7:30 for work.  

Also, I'd never tried to use the hangtime calculator before but I see what people mean when they say it's a rough guess at best. If my best jump the other day was 23 frames, it was ~28.59". If it was 24 frames, ~30.87". Not sure which, but based on where my finger got to I'm going to go with 30.5".

warm up
jump rope x some
foam roll
core stretches

work
tuck jumps 4x20 -- harder than I expected
pogos 4x5
ice skater 3x10
RFI 3x10s -- (L/R) 42/40, 40/39, 40/42 -- wtf super slow

bench 5x195
realized my form needs work, left shoulder is obviously less stable than the right as it slips out on the first rep of any kind of weight
bench 2x5x135, solid form
BOR 3x8x135, very solid form

cool down
stretch
