I wasn't aware you never full squat and you only half squat. Is that so?

No , i do full squats regularly.
The topic has been discussed both in this journal and in that squat thread that we were trying to figure out who is better built for full squats etc , too bored too discuss it again.
Long story sort : I suck at full squats , feels unnatural , cant express my strength/power right , also whenever i stick to them for a while i get right hip problems. I keep them in my routines , warmup/buildup sets are always full. But when i want to really push it , i prefer to half-squat ~50-80lbs more ( that's the difference for me , depending on reps ).

So we're kind of the opposite. In a way I'd wish I'd be better at half squats but I suck at them and tend to get injured when I do half squats.

Tons of lower body stretching.

21 September 2011

BBall training.
1.5 hour of full-court 5 on 5.
Went awesome , endurance and skills are much improved from the bball sessions i've been doing recently.
Vert was also great , steady through the game , effortless and bouncy.
Did only 2 rim jumps at warmups, 27'' SVJ and 31'' dropstep.

25 September 2011

Bodyweight@session : 186
Injuries/aches : none
Soreness : none

Caffed up dunking session , filming.
I was getting up good , 32'' was effortless , peak would be 1 or 2 inches higher , don't know because i didn't do rim jumps , only dunk attempts.
Fucking batteries fucking died while warming up on 9'8'' ,

Still got a few dunks on film but saving them for a later mix , here are my fav stills from 9'8'' warmup dunks:

Perhaps instead you should write, start being a pretty-boy.

Bodyweight@session : ???
Injuries/aches : hip flexors too stiff/tight , quads still stiff
Soreness : none

Bball practice.
Endurance and bounce suffering a bit , CNS and leg muscles feeling unrecovered but everything still up to par.
Vert felt good , did only one rim jump at warmups and got 31'' dropstep.
Checked my status last year ( bball practices + ME jump sessions ) , it seems i am getting 1 to 1.5 inches higher on everything.
