ok so after my ~5 month experiment of doing absolutely no weight training, here's the results:

squat (around parallel close stance):
135 lb x 10 = 10 RM

ok yes i know thats weak, but here's the kicker:
- absolutely no lactic acid buildup in legs during the sets
- no real fatigue either, just couldn't lift the bar by the tenth rep

so basically i am completely slow twitch ;d

anyway, ill be lifting again now.. plan to mostly just do high rep stuff:
- pullups/pushups/high rep squat

etc


peace

Did you test your vert? Wonder what it is...

nope, probably < 20.

That's wild. What was your peak standing vert?

ya it is...

peak SVJ was around ~30.. i have vid of me really getting up on an svj - which was 30 on a jump mat.. ive only hit 30 on a jump mat 2 times, during which my svj was always around 27 on vertec.. i just got so amped up to hit that 30, which is important, because i usually never get amped up on SVJ's, rather i always get amped up on RVJ's.. plus im SVJ'n near a stool which is 30", and with feet flat in the air im pretty much level with it.

lol @ this video, if you havn't seen it, it's a little whacky.. the story behind it is a bunch of people on TVS were telling everyone they needed to "relax more" during their jumps etc. so i wanted to show them how ridiculous they sounded.. bottom line is we all got very amped up, and my boi jamie and nick PR'd bigtime on their SVJ's.. I PR'd also - prior to getting that ridiculous i had only hit ~27.8 or so on the jump mat.

monster energy + lots of yelling + lots of cursing = PR

<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PZ-0RqzwBR8" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PZ-0RqzwBR8</a>


so bottom line, jump mat PR is 30.0.. vertec PR is 28".

i want to hit 500 incline pushups tomorrow but i dont know, i never hit my mark.. im going to do them all day then at night finish it out.. so hopefully at night ill have to hit 300 or so, 200 during the day.




I HAVE TO GET READY FOR THE JERSEY SHORE BROZ!

500 pushups is alot of work...
dun think i'll be able to do that.

question though, why?

1/20/2010

man those pushups made my 'brain tired' today.. not used to doing so many, all that pressure in my head had an effect.

my squats sucked as a result, felt very sluggish.

135 @ 5 x 10, short rest in between (~1 min).

i wanted to do like 4-5 x 20 reps heh..

~7-8 rounds shadowboxing

18 pullups neutral grip

then tons of bodyweight squats, in sets of 20, using 45 - 35 - 25 lb plates..  legs were jello'd.

right tricep insertion still has some tendonitis during shadow boxing.. sux.. hand speed was fine like usual.. need to be careful but overcome this tendonitis b.s.

peace
