Ever thought of just working on SVJ for a month or so? SVJ calc says with your squat and weight you could be getting 34''  :o . If you're getting stuck in the 31-32'' range for your RVJs at the moment, increasing your SVJ to 34'' might help lift your RVJ floor. It's pretty rare to find someone who has a 34'' SVJ and does a good amount of reactive work to not at least get as high in a running jump.

Just a thought, it would be a good psychological boost at the very least to make some gains even if it's not in your desired measurable. I know I got one when I went from 34-35'' to 36-37'' RVJ; it reminds you that your body is capable of meaningful athletic improvements.

you know, that's not a bad idea and also might be inevitable for a bit after my gym closes and i search for a new home court for DLRVJ.

today, i am 26. that's an age  :personal-record:

in other news, my mental calendar had today as a gym day, but it inconveniently forgot that my parents are taking me out for some kind of surprise tonight. so no workout today. here's hoping the extra day of rest sets me up for good jumping tomorrow.

Happy birthday!!!!

Nice video. Looks like you use your hips a lot in the svj.
"Performance during stretch-shortening cycle exercise is influenced by the visco-elastic properties of the muscle-tendon units. During stretching of an activated muscle, mechanical energy is absorbed in the tendon structures (tendon and aponeurosis) and this energy can subsequently be re-utilized if shortening of the muscle immediately follows the stretching. According to Biscotti (2000), 72% of the elastic energy restitution action comes from tendons, 28% - from contractile elements of muscles.
