8/22/2010

bw = 159
soreness = hamstrings/glutes a little
aches/injuries = not much, just toes

workout: light
- ~7 mile walk in ~2 hours
- pre-training-wieght: 164
- post-trainin-weight: 160

lost alot of water during that 'workout'.. legs were pretty tired after, quads and calfs especially .. heheheh

hopefully tmw = dunks + distance

peace

remind me never to go to this court after 2pm EST, EVER.. so many little jits running around.. i mean some of them are cool but there's just too many of them..

8/22/2010

bw = 160
soreness = hamstrings
aches/injuries = ankles annoyed a bit from walk last night

workout #1: "dunks"
- court was wet in a bunch of spots.. too many kids on court.. so all i did was a few max RVJ's and some head heights.. i honestly should have just kept doing max RVJ's, dno why i even tried doing dunks given the environment (wet spots, 100 kids)
- got some nice jumps on film, bout to upload..
- i would have been flying insane today, for sure.. sucks but whatever.

workout #2 tonight will be distance running..
- hit 4.55 miles in 36min flat! ~3min improvement over last session.. started tiring around 3mile again.. but alot better this time
- that comes out to 7:50/mile pace..
- walked about 1.5 mile with interval sprints thrown in, then ran another two miles
- note to self, don't do max effort 10's/20's after such a long jog, achilles tweaked on one of them.. feels fine now hopefully it's nothing
- weight before workout #2: 161, after: 155

vid is up now, check post.. modified it.

dno man, i'm guessing like 35-36" (dno if i was fully outstretched) on that first jump on the vid.. dno about the head heights, though i felt like i clipped that backboard pad on the last jump in the vid.

i only really took one max effort jump, which is the first jump in the vid.. usually i jump 2" higher AT LEAST when doing lobs.. so ya kind of disappointed about the circumstances.. it was raining outside so, couldn't goto an outdoor court, predicted to rain all night too.

edit: well those head heights were max effort too.. happy about the last one considering the runup steps.

gonna do tons of cardio tonight, 3.9 mile run then walk another 4 miles or so..

gotta get to 150...... 40+ !@$!@$!@ focus focus focus.

peace

probably 96" in waffle racers.. reach was 96.5" single arm in basketball shoes.

OH BTW, that little dude with the yellow socks, he goes "why are you wearing track shoes" hahahaha

kid was jacked for how old he was.. seemed very athletic & analytical.

Damn , that's an insane jump!!!
That's 13'' above easily !
35 and 36 my ass , that's 37'' for sure!!!

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Same here, easy 37''
That rim looks pretty legit so the backboard base is supposed to be at 9'2'' , so you need 3' to barely touch the bottom of it so...

Awesome jumps , huge non lifting achievements , congrats!!!

hm... i'm starting to see it a bit differently now.. so far i've gotten like 4 comments thinking it's 37".. i don't think i was fully outstretched either to be honest.. i was reaching today but not fully stretching, but i don't usually fully stretch unless im lobbing.

i go through almost bipolar-ish phases where all of my jumps look like shit.. i'm in one of those right now.. but what's interesting is, it makes me want to get up way higher.. like im in a period of being very "unsatisfied".. but that's fueling me to get down to 150 while pushing my squat up, so it's good stuff.

thanks for the kind words vag and the proper analysis ! hehe

3" above the "crease in my arm" (hinge, elbow) is 40".. so looking at that pic definitely has it looking pretty high.. i used to think it was 2" from crease but after looking at the pic again its 3":
- http://i390.photobucket.com/albums/oo345/adarqui/measure-3.jpg

ok ok cool! i'll be satisfied with head on rim.. not really too far away if i really think about it.. must get it done.. i want to bang my head on the rim so hard that streams of blood fly out of the laceration, in HD.

peace man

edit: and ya, rim definitely seems legit.. i mean, today i only hit about 10'5 off RL DLRVJ, and i never get more than like 10'-10'1 SVJ on that rim.. so i mean i'd imagine i would be PR'n vert/RL DLRVJ etc on it.. i hate measuring rims it's a pain in the ass, that's why i just use a ton of rims and reproduce results on all of them.

8/24/2010

bw = 158
soreness = calfs
aches/injuries = calfs, low back, left achilles slightly, left ham tendon a little

workout:
- nice warmup
- 10-20's x 4
- 200 x 1
- 20's x 3
- 200 x 1
- 20's x 3
- 200 x 1
- 20's x ~5
- bw walking lunges: 2 x 50tot <- dead
- neutral grip pullups: 12
- bar dips: 8
- ghr: 8 x 3 (very good tonight, strong half reps)
- pushups: 30
- double leg hamstring iso: dno how long, until failure

20's felt VERY fast.. 200's were garbage, strength endurance was garbage tonight..

had something interesting happen, on one of my 20's, i took a few quick decel steps then pogo'd off my right leg very high onto the sidewalk.. so basically i went to jump onto the sidewalk but i was going very fast into my plant and handled it well.. i did this right leg about 3 times (after 3 20's).. the one left leg attempt i did was a failure but i think it's because of how i was trying to jump angled 'left' to my left..... anyway, i have to remember to finish sessions with single leg jumps, because when my double leg is dead, i still have pop doing SLRVJ's so.. i need to get those in more often, and i need to practice pogo'n with as much speed as i had tonight.

i'm going out tmw night so i have to try and wakeup a little earlier to get some dunks done.. hope it isn't raining.. if i get to dunk, i plan on trying a bunch of dribble up dunks and single leg self alley's maybe.. going to mix it up a bit and work on some other things....................... chance of rain 50% on the forecast.. not good !!!! ehehe

peace

i just realized this mosquito bite i got on my ankle a few nights ago isn't actually a mosquito bite.. i never really looked at it, only would scratch it.. but it has two fang marks in it..

i havn't been able to sleep just thinking about the huge spider that must exist somewhere ready to take another chomp.
