bw = 156
soreness = 0
aches/injuries = groin/right knee/left itband, left achilles tender
sleep = 4 hours sleep
diet = coffee,
dunks/50 sets of 3-SL-bounds/speed bounds (5 sets each, best of 12 strides left leg full court, 13 strides right leg full court)/SL hop dribbling/ATG-squat-iso-dribbling(3x3min), PB + cake, 5 egg burrito + meatballs/pasta, tons of stretching
some 3-SL-bounds.. these were set 30 lol.. annoyed at how much im being crushed after that first single leg bound off left leg, i just get smashed.. i was handling them better earlier on, but not MUCH better, so thats still indicative of force absorption issues.
a few dunks on four hours sleep.. legs had alot of spring given my fatigue.. eyes closing level of fatigue, sleepy.. happy with these dunks.. confident ill be able to fly without lifting.
Yo Andrew, I went in the park and did a little plyo workout, did some LR jumps with the baby ball (size 1), some jumps with the small ball (size 5) and I'm telling you, these were downright ugly. Whenever I plant I feel this total "overwhelming lazyness" occuring and my jump is bye-bye. Also, when I did consecutive jumps to the rim (standing on spot) I was landing in a totally different place after each jump and basically I was out of reach from the rim altogether after 3 or 4 jumps.
overwhelming lazyness? dno, can't make sense of that... i mean, once i shut down from hitting my max jumps, i get a feeling like that, but im able to jump max before it happens.. so im not sure what would be happening there if it's happening before your max jumps.
ya well consecutive jumps are really hard if you're reaching up to something 'too high'.. if you go submax, you can control..reaching up with two hands also helps to keep you from twisting and rotating away from your target.
Any idea on how to fix this stuff ^^^? On a jump or two I remembred you talking about jumping the best when you tried to jump backwards and it worked, I really jumped well, but then I turned back to my old self with sucking.
jumping 'backwards' always helps me.. i do it every session for months now.. when i cue it as im warming up or before my biggest jumps, it always helps.
How would you go along correcting all this stuff, all this uncoordinated jumping, and "lazy" jumping (immediately after I forcefully plant is like a "force" magically sucks away all my might, I know it sounds retarded but that's how it feels).
well that just sounds like weakness.. tons of double leg jumping should help, jump rope, reactive work, and heavy lifting..
i think you neglect reactive work/jump rope.. because of the cardio issue.
