ATE A TON TODAY...



workout #1:
- 40 yard dashes on this spongy field turf surface: ~5.2x hand time -> GOD THATS SLOW AS SHIT.. i mean, no excuses, it's mostly my start though, i roll into that shit forever.. i mean it's like a 1 second first step how pathetic is that shit.. i did it from two point, i just have to get lower on my two point so that i don't HAVE TO DROP LOWER for 5 fucking frames before starting.. bleh.. so i guess it's not that bad, i'll try to fix that start.




workout #2:
- 1am workout
- some ~30 yard sprints
- some backpedal sprints
- 8 backpedal to forward sprints
- 5 broad jumps (maybe 8'something")
- TRIED DOING HAND STANDS, the strength is there but the balance isn't...
- some ~30-45 second handstand hold against a wall
- 15 chinups
- 15 bar dips
- supine hamstring iso
- poor man's glute ham raise: HORRIBLE, ~15 reps of ~10 degree eccentric hah


Mr. Non-existent hamstrings no more, fuck this shit.. i sware2god i will build strong hamstrings if it's the last thing i do in life.

my knee is bugging a little bit from the 'drop' after the handstand hold, i like dropped off sideways and it bugged my knee out a bit.. should be good for tomorrow though, i plan on throwing down some hard dunks.



I HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO HAMSTRING POWER BUT THIS WILL CHANGE IM TIRED OF HAVING LITTLE GIRL HAMSTRINGS I WILL MAKE THEM STRONG AND KEEP THEM STRONG


!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!




edit:

after that i did about 5 reps every half hour on the pmghr, so like 25 reps total.. then i did a stretch after, static standing gm.. i was already feeling my ham tendon a little so got to make sure i don't pull it, so far it felt ok.. im doing little short reps (very short) on the pmghr.. i plan on doing them very high frequency.

ate a ton today, good stuff.. hoping for some great jumps tomorrow night.



workout:
- warmup
- 10 yard sprints: 5-6 work ups, 5 full speed
- 20 yard sprints: 4 from a deeper 2 point
- broad jumps: 3x5 (best of 96-97", brought tape measure)
- single leg box jumps: onto ~18" bench: 3x5
- upper body was weak, did alot yesterday
- chinups: 12
- dips: 10
- hamstring iso: 2min
- squat iso: 2min


pmghr's throughout the day: a set of 5 every 30min to 60min.. feeling much better on these today, really getting a good hamstring contraction.. going deeper on my partials.

left achilles is tight/bugging a bit from a broad jump landing, so that sucks.. tomorrow i have dunks/depth jumps from 18" (2x10) planned.



peace

do you ever do off days or low intesnity days?  so much for the ole high low approach

do you ever do off days or low intesnity days?  so much for the ole high low approach

well, my sprinting days are low intensity technically.. i mean, they don't wreck my CNS like my jumping days do.. so im pretty much going high every other day.. my sprint sessions might cause some glute/ham fatigue, especially if i go past 60m/60yards or so, but usually when i get that glute/ham soreness, i jump good the next day.. i'm keeping the volume very low though so, it's mostly some CNS/glute/ham/calf activation imo.

i took an off day recently, i'm taking them when i really need them.. so far so good.. ive been going like 1.5 weeks without one, then i'll need one bigtime, i rest that day and come back very refreshed.

i feel more ON than OFF, by doing this style of training vs weightlifting.. soreness/aches/cns fatigue are 120491209410% lower on this routine im on compared to traditional weightlifting.. i mean it reminds me of my second high frequency experiment, where i'd just work up to a single in squat or lunge nearly every day then end the workout.. i had alot more CNS arousal then though, i felt like I was on speed or something during that haha.

peace man

LANDED A NASTY DUNK TONIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!

will have vid/stills later.. still got half my workout to do (depth jumps from 18), have to goto the park and do head height jumps, parked closed 15 min early.

Hey man do you feel your hamstrings do much work when you sprint?  

ya, that's the only time i feel them in any athletic activity.. except for like targeted resistance training etc.

i feel my glutes/hamstrings when i sprint, i don't feel them in bball dribbling, jumping, or anything else.

peace man

edit: i feel them slightly with < ~30 yard sprints, which is still good for me, but when i go 40+ (60-100 especially), I feel them bigtime.
