5 June 2011

Failed ME jumps session  :uhhhfacepalm:

Jumping on concrete ,  10' rim

Bodyweight@session : ~194
Injuries/aches : none
Soreness : glutes 2/5 , was 4/5 yesterday , reverse lunges FTW!
Stim : 1 redbull

Excuses:
1 - Jumps 4 hours after lunch ( including alcohol )
2 - Jumps at 9PM so not able to use caffeine.
3 - Rims were taken and when they got free it was too dark

FML!  :pissed:

- 10mins dynamic warmup

- bunch of low/mid effort jumps.

ME jumps:
- 1x4 SVJs : shity!
- 1x4 Dropsteps : shity!
- 1x4 1&2 step DLRVJs : shity!
- 1x4 3-4 steps DLRVJs : shity!

For the lulz: submax jumps warmup was great. Despite the alcohol and food and all i got a 10'7'' dropsrep ( 32'' ) and a 10'8'' RVJ ( 33'' ). By the time i rested and did my SVJs  set it got too dark. All SVJs ~27'' , all the other jumps stuck at 10'5'' ( 30'' ). Crazy CNS shutdown , 30'' was ridiculously easy but i couldn't even get 31'' no matter how much i pushed it.

I hate that shit, when I feel like I can get 1-2" below peak with ease, over and over but then can't get beyond it. Oh well, just gotta try to do better next time.
Muscles are nonsensical they have nothing to do with this bullshit.

Not sure. I always tend to get better at RVJs at ~192lbs and below so it could be the weightloss ( net weight in the morning is ~189 currently ).
All the depth jumps and jump squats must have helped too, i feel like i am loading my jump much better planting from a runup now.
All latest jumps were submax though, so i can't really tell, i must video a true ME session soon.
