nice workout man.. as for the stiff leg hops, I was going to tell you to do sets alternating double leg and LL/RR/LL/RR etc.. it's just a small reflexive pop with toes up, stiff legged, should feel it alot in your glutes/hamstrings.. did you?

hmmm... does it matter which way i go into my double legged RVJ?

cos i just realised that i have no fixed way, sometimes i go in L-R (at this point both feet are together,gathering to go up)-jump, sometimes its R-L-jump.

considering i jump off my left leg for my SLRVJ, would it be more advantageous for me to fix it one method?
funny thing is, while i jump off my left, i have a feeling my right leg is stronger and more stable  haha. puzzling :-\



nah it doesn't matter, for most people it does but you definitely are different.. just do what is feeling natural, or what is getting you the highest.. mix it up.. should be in total like ~20 jumps or so..

i would do say, 2-3 jumps with 30 seconds in between, then rest 2-3 minutes or so (maybe just shooting around/dribbling).. repeat for 5-7 sets.

great job on the pullups/dips, thats beast.


peace man

yeah i reckoned the rope skipping was for me to improve the quickness or watever it is, so i stayed on my toes for as much as i could. i didnt really feel it in the glutes or hams tho, my calves started heating up way earlier, or mayb im doing it wrong? i'll go look for a nice pink skipping rope on my off day soon.

for the VJs, how am i different? which part am i lacking in?

as for the pullups/dips, thats way lower than what u do... so its hardly beast, and more towards kitty actually...

but the lower overall volume is definitely great, i actually feel fine right now, and am raring to go for the next workout.
but with regards to upper body, will i lose any mass/strength?

ya man you did the right thing with the squats, always do progressive warmups.. going from 60kg on REA to 120kg on squat would be nuts.

like 10'9 .. i suck at dunking though, i throw the ball down too hard so i need more height, if i just did some soft shit icould probably land weak lobs with 10'6 hehe.

if improvement = PR then that's damn good.. even if it's not repeatable in the session.. i mean if it was a legit PR.. all of my pr's, i only obtained one in a session, non repeatable that session.

peace
