Jacob is actually a really nice person and quite knowledgable about Jump Training. He spends a lot of time helping his customers and making sure they get results. If you were to follow his program I am sure you would do ok.

Zgin, care to offer a counterpoint?

nope. i dont disagree with jack.   

Aw, crap.

Sprints in Nike Frees were bugging. New kicks still not ideal but definitely improve things enough that I can set up okay. Should try push-up starts. Thanks for the other suggestions.

nice man, ya i do that visualize/self talk stuff when i do my big sessions.. it really helps.. i can't remember the last time i didn't jump insane high after i say to myself: "this is the only jump that matters, everything else is in the past".. works every time, got it from that olympic triple jumper interview vid haha..

but ya, once you go at this for a while, then you can start incorporating more reactive work (id say no dj's, more like pogos/tucks/etc), then your RVJ should feel way different.

peace

Word. It's not so much a psyching up thing for me at this point, mostly just visualizing what it should look like as I approach the hoop: aggressive acceleration, big step into the jump and rotate whole body as right foot plants and I launch off the ground. Psyching myself up for real tends to just make me tight, I try too hard.

With respect to adding more reactive stuff, I'm going to wait until I've actually followed through on the current set up. Or would you recommend adding more reactive stuff to SR sessions starting in the next phase? The one thing I've thought seriously about adding was a couple of heavy squat singles or doubles on the power day, just to keep advancing strength as much as possible. My technique is back in an okay place: no knee collapse or wobble and good depth. Thoughts?

You're getting better at editing. Sweet effect with the moving overlay.
