Basketball training

Weight@session : ~191,5
Injuries/aches : none
Soreness : none

Endurance was much improved as expected , skiing ~80km per day for 6 days is no joke!
Vert was very good , unexpected. Got ~10'2'' SVJ ( ~27'' ) , ~10'5'' ( ~30'' ) off 1 step and ~10'7'' ( ~32'' ) off 2 & 3 steps.

Bball game
Good endurance. Felt more like improved strength endurance , was tired to run but not tired to push/jump. Whatever.
Only 7 of us = more playing time than i can handle = no ME jumps to save strength = pity because the court floor was awesome.
Got a ~10'6'' ( ~31'' ) off 1-step and a 2-hands ~10'2'' ( 1 knuckle above ) off 1-step again. Those were the only 2 jumps i did.

BBall game => opponents didn't come => bball practice.
Pretty much bleh , felt "energy-drained", no explosion/agression at all.
Tried only 2 jumps that verified the bleh-ness, SVJ 25'' , 2-steps RVJ ~30''.

Vag you seem to be a pro at the vjtraining. Is it possible to take a young lady like myself under your wings and help me gain inches. You can check out my journal and let me know something. We have the same reach in height in shoe. I can give you some more detail if your interested in helping me.

Hi there and thanks for your good words.
I dont consider myself pro , but ive learned quite a few stuff with all the reading and training ive done the last 4 years. Ill be glad to help , but be sure that adarqui and LanceSTS that run this place can help even more.
I saw your journal , why don't you start with that 2 day split that Lance suggested , it looks great. My training is much similar to that split : 1 day upper and 1 day lower, its a very flexible split , can be applied either you work out 2 3 or 4 days a week. I would go with that for a few weeks ( like 12 ) building up strength on all basic moves ( squat , RDL , lunge , pushes/pulls ) and then you can re-evaluate and do more specified stuff.
Hope it helps...

Will do. Another question, when they say squats and dead lifts decrease you vert. Do they mean until your legs recover? Last question, how good are your dunks, are they consistent, two handed, clean, etc...?

Squats and deadlifts can only improve your vert. Of course the next day(s) of squatting your legs will be dead so you won't be able to jump your max, but on the long term squats and deadlifts dramatically increase your leg strength which has a carryover in jumping.
To be able to dunk consistent 1 handed ( palming the ball ) you need to be able to get ~10'' above the rim without the ball. Make that ~12'' and you can land 2-handers rather easy and also cuffed 1 handers.
8-9'' above = barely dunking , timing and everything must be perfect. Less than that = no dunk.
So for our reach :
~33''  = barely dunking 1 handers
~34''-35'' = consistent 1 handers
~36''-37'' = 2-handers.
I have no idea what i can do currently , my best running vert must be ~32'' ( 10'7'' touch ) so i can only dunk up to 9'10''.
