31 August 2011

Bodyweight@session : ~189
Injuries/aches : none
Soreness : none

Went to the park and shot around for ~1 hour ( mixed shooting - dribbling - layups - dunk attempts ).

max SVJ ~29''

max DLRVJ ~33''

SLRVJ was a bit weaker , middle of fingers at 9'10'' rim at layups instead of base of fingers.

Ball palming was awful so didn't manage to land a single dunk!  :pissed:

Best jump of the day , it is an off the backboard dunk attempt , it's a MISS!

You look like you're having better hip extension in this picture/better hip flexibility (nice hyperextension).

What happens if you voluntarily pull your heels to the butt?

Yes , looking at the video the runup & plant at those off the backboard attempts were insane fast/smooth( for my level ).

Whenever i try to voluntarily do something , i fail terribly! :uhhhfacepalm:
Ive had many sessions that i could not even match the relaxed warmup jumps. When i think , runup gets screwed.
That is why those off the backboard dunk attempt jumps are so good , all my concentration goes on tossing/catching the ball , no runup thinking.

PS : At yesterday's session , best rim touch was 1'' below wrist ( 32'' ) , now look at the pic jump, it looks 1'' or even 2'' higher!  :wowthatwasnutswtf:

5 September 2011

Bodyweight@session : ~188
Injuries/aches : none
Soreness : none

Went to the park and shot around for ~1 hour ( mixed shooting - dribbling - layups - dunk attempts ).

Was feeling very powerful so i caffed up for some great stuff , unfortunately all the rims were taken except from the worse one ( 9'8'' - ultra dusty - bad lighting ).  :pissed:

Went great again , efficiency improvement is steady. 32'' was effortless , 33-34 repeatable. Dunking 9'8'' is a joke, no fun though , no inner drive too. Only kinda fun was off the backboard dunks and dropstep 2-handers.

After 45 minutes my standard 9'10'' rim got free. 33'' still repeatable , few hard one-handers , couple of 2-handers and a sick monster dunk miss off the backboard , i literally thought the rim would break  , all the pick up games stopped to see what happened.  :headbang:

This dunking efficiency improvement is fun and all but i gotta get myself back to the gym!

Was feeling very weak / powerless.

Where did you have the weight held in the box pistol squats? In front or on the back? In hands or on the back?

22 / 44 lbs = 1/2x10kg DBs in front ( just like you would hold the bar for a front squat ).

58 lbs = 2x10kg DBs in front + DB loaded backpack on my back.

16 September 2011

Bodyweight@session : ~187
Injuries/aches : none
Soreness : quads & glutes 1/5

Went to the park and did up-tempo bball stuff for ~1 hour.
Legs still unrecovered , quads went burning very quick.
Vert sucked , effortless 30'' , rather easy 31'' , only a couple 32''.
Been practicing applying my vert on game conditions ( off the dribble , no traveling etc ).
Current ability: 100% 9'8'' 2-handers , 20% 9'8'' cuffed 1-handers , 0% 9'10'' ( can lay in touching mid palm at rim ).

Bodyweight@session : ~187
Injuries/aches : none
Soreness : none

Didn't go to the gym again because Wednesday is bball season 1st gathering and wanted to be fresh.
Went to the park and did up-tempo bball stuff for ~1 hour.
Did 3 rim jumps at the end of the session :
SVJ 28-29'' , dropstep 30-31'' , DLRVJ 32''
Happy with them coz they came easy  , no caff , and very fatigued.

LOL, worse than n/a , my full squat is pathetic , 1RM was ~250lbs back in June , so i guess 20-30lbs less now.
