The surprise was that you have shaved right? 

Great dunks. Some tohanders. NICE!!

And Eddie has some jumps man. And some cool tats it seems.

Seriously, how epic did have to make the video? That is sick. Just got back from clubbing in Auckland on the weekend. Got my first real taste of a dubstep club. It was insane. Then I get back and you've made this video. Good shit man, nice jumping too.

that's awesome about you dubstepping in auckland then coming back to see this vid haha.. glad you liked it man.. i keep watching it, it pumps me up, i get little muscle twitches (quads, mirror neurons heh) when i'm watching it@!@$

i honestly didn't jump to my potential either, i should have jumped higher.. kinda annoyed about my feet, they definitely impacted my vert yesterday.

peace man

bw = 153
soreness = none
aches/injures = left lateral heel

all in all, actually felt good.. 3 hour workout tonight.


workout: jumps + reactive work + strength
- walk to court
- single leg jumps, probably 15 each leg, hit a few 32's righty, mostly 30's
- tuck jumps
- supersetted tuck jumps with some relaxed DLRVJ's, actually hit a really smooth 33" dlrvj felt awesome.. just felt way different and not much effort, tried to repeat it, next jump was like 29-30 lool.. i was working on getting lower in my plant and dorsiflexing prior and during the runup/plant, so i kind of did some form jumping.. the dorsiflexion shit was good, i havn't been actively dorsiflexing like that at all, but in the past i have done that and it definitely helps.. my ankles are alot stronger in the plant when i do it and i get more speed in the run up.
- more tuck jumps
- walk back
- more tuck jumps/pogos while warming up for pin squat
- pin 11 squat, 5sec pause: 305 @ 1x1 @ 151 lb BW, 275 @ 1x3, 225 @ 3x5 quick sets (~30s rest)
- dips: 5
- pullups: 8
- bb calf raise (glutes locked): 4 x 10

done.. i did an insane amount of reactive work though, that's why i can't even list it.. tons of ME tuck's @ 10 reps, a bunch of 40-50 rep buttkick jumps, pogo's x 10 reps, etc.. lots of sets.. oh and DEEP landing MR tuck jumps which i'm starting to like..

tomorrow = rest/walking/light sprints, tues = vertec maybe + basically this same workout, except, i plan on doing like 10 x 5 on pin 11 squat.

peace

Youll get it off the dribble mang. DAmn thatll be sweet. I hope Ill get closer to dunking this winter with the new program. How would that look. 242pounds, 6'2 dunking a volley ball.

ya that would be sweet, would be beastly for sure.

Anyways. Eddie has some crazy hops. Is he natural or has he trained hard for it?

well he's natural and he trains, best of both worlds.. back when we did boxing conditioning together, his max touch was 127" the first time he ever maxed out on vertec.. then that training disbanded, months later he comes back saying he wants to train again, and he maxed out at 132", then a month later he hits 134" or something, then 4 months later 137.5".. so he trained from 132" on up.

i think he has even more potential now then he did before..

btw, this what you meant when you said ytw?

ya, you can do them slightly bent over too in a nice semi bent leg + lean, that's how i do them, but you can definitely do them on a bench like that, it works just as well if not better.

peace man

Cool. Ill do them standing then. We dont have a bench like that.

coo!

137.5" just ain't fair...

I'd be happy with 128!

ya i know, i'd be happy with 144"

but ya 137.5" is nuts, looks so high on the vertec.

Thats crazy. 132 natural 

ya, at 94" reach.. 38 natural lool

bw = 153
soreness = hamstrings (from stretching)
aches/injuries =  quads/calfs dead, left ham tendon slightly

stretched hard last night, hamstrings very sore from it


workout: walking/recovery
- ~10-12 mile walk

workout #2: stretching
- lots of hamstring/adductor stretching, calf stretching
- going to play around with stretching a little more.. i don't like the fact that i got so sore from stretching last night.


an 'attack dog' scared the living shit out of me tonight.. someone apparently let's it in their 'walled in yard' at night, thing looked like a rabid rotweiler.. it came out of nowhere and tried to bite my head off, it was about 5 feet from me.. it seemed like it could jump over the wall, not sure, i walked away slowly with my knife out hoping it didn't jump the fence.. massive adrenaline rush though from it, went from 'feeling shitty' to feeling like i could sprint max instantly. hah


peace
