dude i like all the 1 leg stuff i see from you. keep it up!

thanks alot man, will do

man, I was wondering; there is a vid of jukebox doing a half squat with 405lbs @190lbs and not as deep as the one you do, with all the strenght that you have got, have you ever think about going from strenght training to something more reactive?

ive done tons of reactive work.. ive gone on reactive-only routines, and my vert dies, weightroom stuff is what brings it back up.

my issues are entirely strength related.. jukebox could have slightly less relative strength than me, but he also could have other advantages like more energy return from tendons etc.. so that squat ratio isnt end-all-be-all when comparing our strength/vert... could be other factors.

single leg jumping gets worse and worse.. left leg just becomes destroyed.. today after a few jumps it started feeling like crap.. did < 10 dunk attempts.

single leg is indeed more demanding and applies more pressure on the whole leg and body, u're not used to it yet i guess

I disagree, I can jump endlessly off one leg, but off two, after a few tries, I'm burned out. Totally inefficient.

Jump off right leg when you're tired

ive tried, i can barely touch rim off right leg right now hah.

darq, im trying to really focus on my single leg jumping now for basketball. lots of situations where I could dunk but I just lay it in because my single leg jumps is far behind my double leg. got my first slam off 1 leg today (posted video in PR thread) but i want to continue to get better at it. since youre focusing more on it lately, do you have any suggestions as to what I should be doing? if i am going to work out two times a week, what do you suggest I do on each day for my single leg in terms of lifts, plyos?

well take it slow, congrats on that pr.. i always go too hard and now i got tendonitis from slrvj'n, in my left knee.. lool

things that help slrvj are single leg pogos, walking lunges/bss, single leg calf raises, and bounding.. as well as squatting etc..

if you got in some bound progression or single leg pogo, squat, lunge or bss, single leg calf raises, etc.. that'd be good.

How long do you shut it down when you get knee tendinitis?  Do you do anything specifically for prehab to avoid it.  I used to get what I thought was knee tendinitis from track work but since I started dunk practice my knee pain is incomparably bad.  It goes away when I don't play basketball but comes right back when I jump on hardwood. 

shutting it down for dunking -> 1-2 weeks unfortunately.. my left knee is destroyed from the slrvj's, seems like VL tendon, feels so weird..

sucks about your knees man.. ive delt with lots of knee issues over the years so ive learned to work around them, ,but it's damn annoying.. im changing up my training hardcore anyway so, eventually everything will work itself out.

peace man
