thanks guys. dunno what's up with the knee. it felt totally fine on my trip despite some moderately intense hiking, but this morning it's feeling a bit weird. not painful just...weird. i'll post a few pics later, the trip was amazing. the american southwest is pretty unreal. for the euro friends: if you're ever visiting the US for a decent-length trip, you get a LOT of bang for your buck flying to vegas and driving to the grand canyon, bryce, and zion national parks. i'd recommend escalante national monument and valley of fire state park really highly, as well. but GC, bryce and zion are just awe-inspiring.

no workout tonight because



did foam roll and stretch and do glute activation stuff during the game, though.

last night:

worst workout in recent memory. thought i'd try the old priming method of doing some heavy squat singles (i did 315x1,1,1,1) before jumping. could not even touch rim off SVJ. horrible. jumped around for a while after and tried to salvage something from the session but my god.

 :huh: :(

yesterday (saturday):

WEIGHT: ???
SORENESS: none
ACHES/INJURIES: right ankle and right thumb - neither is really healed
MENTAL STATE: good

- warm up

- DLRVJ x a bunch, SLRVJ x a bunch
really good, 34-35 off DLRVJ which is not awesome, but felt powerful. couple of two-hand-ish grabs. SLRVJ was inconsistent but also pretty good, i hit 30.5 off L and 30 off R a few times each.

- DB jump squat 45s x 4; 25s x 4,4,4

- superset x 3
-- assisted natural GHR x 10
-- pull up x 7

- stretch

gonna drop squatting to once or maaayyybe twice per week for a while, see what happens. weight work for legs will be jump squats, unilateral shit, and p-chain shit.

If you don't mind me asking, what are your vertical jump numbers? Starting numbers and now.

I have this device called Vert that accurately measures vertical jump. It is as accurate as my Nike+ shoes and normally overestimates my vertical by an inch. I also have the Myotest Pro device, but it isn't very accurate. This is how I measure my single leg standing jumps.
