Decent sesh ytd.

Sets of 5 on the squats were all pretty good, parallel or at most a hair above.
Den got 130 and 137 for triples. Fast 2nd rep, last rep not as fast.

Bus ride home was abt 45mins. When I got off I almost couldn't walk. Right outside portion of right knee suddenly tightened the fuck up. Scary shit. Mayb the ankle stiffness and being not recovered meant the tension travelled upwards. :-\
Squats were ok, knees didn't move inwards for almost all the reps, tho for a few reps they did move in a tad, and I moved them back out.

Typing this on the phone, so I'll write the workout later.
Gonna meet this doc, who's a fren of the guy I see at the gym.

Also, I've been having peeps in the gym ask me wat the contents of the shaker was when I workout. It was actually just xtend.
I see it as a good sign haha. These peeps probably think it's the shake that's working...

- started out great, got disrupted.
- some fag wanted to work in while i was benching. i told him i had just 2 sets left, he insisted.
- so ok, let him in, but he fucking removed the weight, and said he wanted to warm up. so thats his definition of working in...
- dude moved the bench too, on top set of 100, was slightly offcenter when unracking, almost tore my shoulder. affected the rest of the workout.
- next time he demands it, imma give him a piece of my mind.

- WTF. 3rd consecutive time this happened to me. by the time i waited for him to be done, loaded the bar back, i'd lost the focus. pretty sure i couldve gotten at least a double. FUCK.

- on the bad ankle leg, the outside tendon behind the knee is getting tight. can someone explain this to me?

nice... lance is finally in the house!  :wowthatwasnutswtf:

GOALS

1) vert. im turning 28 next month, i just wanna be able to dunk before im done with basketball lol.
2) speed, explosiveness, power. all about the same thing.
3) strength

actually the vert is the primary goal, anything else that comes along is a bonus. i've not been working on my game, putting it off in favor of weight work. would wanna be able to work on my game at some point, but everything else can be put on the back burner, if vert work requires it.

INJURIES

1) bad right ankle sprain. sometime in dec 2010, still not 100% yet.
2) theres this spot on my back, that twinges and has a shot of slight sharp pain when i bend over. but goes away after a warmup before lifting.
3) left shoulder, elbow. just some aches.

TRAINING
can do sun thru fri. hopefully no leg day on fri, but will do if necessary. no access to gym on sunday though.

much appreciated lance!!

In case this new reply opens a new page, lance my reply is on the previous page.

Will get to posting the wed upper workout later.
Had a game earlier today. Game at 11am, I finished work at 7am. Got in one hour of sleep before heading out haha. And now it's 6pm and I'm prepping to go to work again  :uhhhfacepalm:

Decent game today, missed once, travelled once, got like 10-14
 or so points in total of like 12 mins playtime. God my stamina is shot haha, the first time I got in the game I had a good run, but subbed myself out after 5-6 mins.

Ok cowed,


 2 days a week

dynamic warm up + stiff leg ankle hops- 3 x 20 (be gentle with these until ankle is able to handle max intensity)

Hang/jump snatch - 4 x 3-5 reps

squat- 4 x 5-7 reps

rdl- 3 x 6- 8 reps

Lunges (forward)- 2 x 10-12 reps

standing calf raise- 2 x15- 20 reps

finish with foam rolling and pnf stretching (10 mins)


$$$$$ - on the second lifting day, swap box squat or pin squat for squats, swap hang cleans for jump snatch.


3 days a week- jump max effort at rim, 15-30 jumps, stop at drop off after 15. (do these on days you dont lift, or before lifting)


Total your reps in all the sets for that weight, that is the number you will have to beat each week, you will have a full week to beat the squat/box and snatch/clean, and 3 days to beat the others, which is very doable right now for you.

for example, if you completed 4 x of 5, 5, 5, and 6 reps with 300 lbs for your squat workout, thats 21 total reps at 300 lbs, the next week you either have to lift 305 lbs for at least 20 reps, or hit 300 for 22 or more reps to beat it.  Be consistent with this, its EVERYTHING.

You can add upperbody work as you wish, either on off days or at the end of lower body strength days. Dont neglect foam rolling and pnf stretching, its going to be key for continual progress and beating the numbers. good luck man!
Relax.
