WEIGHT: 187 (172.8)
SORENESS: none
ACHES/INJURIES: none
MENTAL STATE: good

- warm up

- DLRVJ lob attempts x 12
my boy came and threw lobs. all misses, mostly not even close. timing was off until the last couple and by that point i wasn't getting high enough. was a little shy of PR height, prob around 36 for the best jumps. but he said he'd be down to help out again so that's a win.

- shoot around x 40 mins

Man lobs are something you really start getting in the groove of and get in sync with one another after a good number of tries.  12 is too little.  If you had better work capacity and can get in ~30 legit ME jumps, you can probably get a good number of near-perfect lobs.

Do you at least go into these jump sessions caffeinated?

could you explain the superbowl to me, I thought it was like the world cup but it isn't, it is just one team vs another, it should be tournament style all the nfl teams in one tournament until you reach the superbowl final, as for the current one vs one you only get one day to have one match unless they do more than one match.

the super bowl is the culmination of a tournament. seriously, spend like 14 seconds googling before asking a question like that.

I've always read about rythmic jump squats (from the Defranco days) and I've always wondered why a high rep routine like that would be beneficial to jumpers like ourselves. Any ideas LBBS?

kf swears by them for SVJ. you're getting a double overload -- from the weight itself and from the height you're adding to jumps 2-n -- while still being able to produce force quickly. i wouldn't do them for high reps, moderate reps seems like the way to go.

if you do them be careful to use a weight you can REALLY handle and make sure you're keeping good form. i strained my low back/SI joint a while back doing DB jump squats, not even rhythmic ones.

______________

got home from work really late and i feel like garbage, bailing on the gym tonight. can't go tomorrow night either, guess i'll call it a one-week layoff.  :-[

ETA: did some kb work (swings and snatches), foam rolled, and did band work for shoulders. not much but better than sitting on my ass.

Thanks, I appreciate it. What is your current SVJ/RVJ btw? Also, I use this device that clips on to my waist to measure my vertical--it's really cool and I would highly recommend it for any vertical jump enthusiast due to its accuracy.

Lol. It's called "vert" by mayfonk. This: http://myvert.myshopify.com/products/vert-wearable-jump-monitor

It is VERY accurate and I've had it for over 2 years (got it from kickstarter before it was officially released). It is as accurate as the Nike+ shoes, which I also have.

What were your starting SVJ/RVJ numbers btw?
