Jumps look like decreasing lately.
Looking back at my log , i figured out i am rather doing too much.
I wend jumping/dunking at : 22/3, 26/3 , 29/3 , 5/4 , 9/4
That's 5 times in 18 days, being in a strentrh cycle too.
I think its fine though , i am ot chasing PRs , i look more to improve RVJ form.
I guess its all gonna bond together and work in the end.

nothing wrong with jumping 2-3x per week as long as u end your jump session at 1st or 2nd sign of performance dropoff

If it was at the gym id agree , but those sessions were all on concrete.
Joints get too tight/achy after, dont forget my age.
Since im getting back to the basketball team , ill try to go with 1 jumping session (concrete) + 1 bball training (wood) per week.
Target training paces (min/km), calculated from 5K PR 22:49 :
Easy run : 5:48
Tempo run : 4:50
VO2-max run :4:21
Speed form run : 4:02

it's the biggest trick in the run game.. go slow to go fast. it doesn't make sense until it smacks you in the face and you're like ....... wtf?

24 April 2010

Wight@session : ~192.5

Dynamic warmup 10'
bunch of low-mid effort jumps

9'10'' rim jumps
1x4 SVJs : ~28'' , felt great too
1x5 RVJs : ~ 31,5''
~15 dunk attempts , 0/15
Was getting 31+ in most of those jumps.
I need a new ball though , this one is too worn out , couldnt palm it.
That fucked my confidence too , 31,5 is ~8,5 above 9'10'' , i can dunk that when i palm the ball. Without palming it i need ~10'' , so...  :-\
Had 2 hard off-the-backboard misses, pretty sweet...

So after 6 weeks of strength training/bulking , SVJ went up , RVJ down.
I felt SVJs and RVJs much more powerfull and consistent , and also tended to have a more neutral squat plant.
All normal i guess...

SQUATS:
Warmup sets:
10xbar
6x77
4x121
2x165
1x209
Work sets:
MSEM , ~1' between reps , ~4' between sets
3x1@231lbs
3x1@253lbs

BSS :
MSEM again , ~1' between reps , ~4' between sets
3x1@154lbs
Switching from 3x8 to 3x1MSEM is HUGE difference , 154 was light as feather.
3x1@220lbs ( PR , 220 BSS , jizz in my pants!!! )

STANDING CALVE RAISES:
3x12@286

ya, i told you not to go MAX, but whatever.. you will be fine by tuesday!

contrast showers, good amount of sleep, adequate calorie intake = fine by tuesday.. the volume wasn't there to cause 3+ days of fatigue.

pc!

Pic from 24 April dunk session.
Its an off the backboard attempt with 2 steps lead in RVJ.
YES , its a miss! :D

Rim = 9'10''
Wrist = 8'' above     ( 10'6'' / 31'' RVJ )
Watch = 10'' above ( 10'8'' / 33'' RVJ )
Looks like ~31,5'' to me

10' dynamic warmup.

Yeah, that's sick man, who cares if you missed? Gettin' up is good. Plus, looks like it's going in in the pic, could have fooled all of us  ;).
Muscles are nonsensical they have nothing to do with this bullshit.

Thanks man.
That was the peak of the jump , thats why i posted this. Next frame , although i am starting to descend there, is even more fooling : i have my wrist turned down the rim, it looks like impossible to miss it. But it backrimed, LOL And it happened 2 times , 2 absolutely identical jumps and misses! Crazy...

The court we were playing today has the best wooden court, perfect grip and bounce.

Got wrist at rim 4 times. Thats 8'' above , 10'8'' , 33'' RVJ, BAM , equals PR , FINALY!!!
Havent jumped 33'' from last June!!! Very happy with it... :D :D :D :D :D
