bw = 156
soreness = none
aches/injuries = right ankle VERY slightly, felt good pretty much all day even during dunk session
fatigue = moderate
diet = smaller protein shake + 1 teaspoon coffee, smaller protein shake + 1 teaspoon coffee, dunking + protein shake, egg & cheese sandwhich (2 eggs, multi grain bread), reactive session, protein shake, protein shake + turkey and cheese sandwhich
workout #1: jumps/dunks
- dunked in between a full court game, was good that i did, kept my jumps down.. wasn't into it mentally, no aggression really, 'depressed' landings lol.. had some nice jumps though
- felt really interesting on my runups/plants, really felt more pop out of my calfs, felt more on forefoot
workout #2: reactive (2 hour workout)
JU = JUMP ROPE DON'T KNOW WHY I SPELLED IT JU INSTEAD OF JR HAH
BLSAH = BARBELL LOW SQUAT ANKLE HOPS
NGPU = NEUTRAL GRIP PULLUP
JU-200, JU-200, JU-200, JU-250, JU-250, JU-300, JU-300, JU-300,BLSAH45-50, JU-300, BLSAH45-50, JU-300, BLSAH75-50 + NGPU-8, JU-300, BLSAH95-50 + NGPU-8, JU-300, BLSAH115-40 + NGPU-8, JU-300, BLSAH115-40 + NGPU-8, JU-300, BLSAH115-40
+ PU-8, JU-630, NGPU-10
TOTAL JUMP ROPE REPS = 4430 = 200 + 200 + 200 + 250 + 250 + 300 + 300 + 300 + 300 + 300 + 300 + 300 + 300 + 300 + 630 = 4430
115 lb on the low squat ankle hops was good, more intense for sure but still "easy", though i like it, really kills me quads to death.
workout #3: glute/calf
- S1: glute bridges: 100, 100, 100
- S1: calf raises: 35 lb total @ 50, 60, 50
feel pretty amazing right now actually.. feel really explosive.
IMPORTANT REMINDERS- DO NOT squat without heels elevated, used to heels elevated, too much sitting back aggravates back injury
- DO NOT deadlift aggravates back injury
- DO NOT overstretch quads, aggravates ankle injury
CURRENT GOALS01/11/2011: PROJECT SSR7, get down to 150 or less as soon as possible.. maintain 315 x 5 half squat strength + keep a set of 20 maintained (245-265), fix right ankle, more interval conditioning, don't neglect my necessary exercises
