ok so here is a description of myself:

I have started thinking about training since May. But never started, until today.

I have spent sooooooo much time just try to find out about programs and shit for free. But now I've realized that no matter how many programs you have, you have to train to become better. It's just I sort of wanted to get a lot of programs to know what they're like.Now when I think about it I don't even know why I need those programs. Out of curiosity? IDK but I just felt like I wanted to own them. Just seeing or having the programs don't make you a better athlete. Been procrastinating for the whole summer, it's time to start training.

Right now my goals are to be more agile for basketball. I read this article that says for young athletes we should focus more on weight training right now for muscle development are fast at our age and basketball is more plyometrics. Because I am slow I was gonna do some plyometrics training and work on my speed/agility, until I saw this. So if thats the case then I will just do some strength training then. But what do you think?

Yo, welcome to the forum. Try to have some sort of plan, since this is the journal section.

Some people do like to divide their workout into phases, or blocs, kind of like what you are suggesting. But you can strength train with weights and do some plyometrics, (especially practicing vertical jumps), and see results. In fact the combination is optimal

Edit: Just read your second post, sounds like you have some sort of goals, so nvm, it seemed like you were not sure of your goals, so disregard that

yeah thanks man I am just not sure what to start with. But for now I will just be doing TAQ, freak technique and some bodyweight/dumbell workouts.

Oh and I just remembered creativelyric made this template a while ago but I feel like thats not so much weight training and like i said previously i think I'll need that.
Quote from: creativelyric on May 16, 2011, 06:08:22 pm
Here's a template I made for another young dude. I'm sure it'd work just fine for you.

Monday:
Dynamic warmup
30 yard sprints x until speed drops off
Stationary squat jumps 2 sets x until you can't go up as explosively as the first few reps

Wednesday:
Dynamic warmup
Stiff-legged calf jumps 2 sets of 15
Double-leg bounding 2 sets of 6
Jumps for max height 3 sets of 4

Friday:
Dynamic warmup
Single-leg speed hops 2 sets of 10 yards
Tuck jumps 2 sets of 10 (don't force it if you cannot explode in the last two or so reps)

Now, if you got b-ball practice, maybe you'd want to reduce the frequency to two days per week and omit one day. Just mix and match with the days so you don't overdo it. Not overdoing it is important. Listen to your body. You can probably gain a few inches if you keep the volume perfect.

And D-Rose JR suggested some Jump Rope:
Quote from: D-Rose Jr on May 18, 2011, 02:18:54 pm

the is really nice. I really would also advise to do some jump rope as well.

Start out with
2 feet hopping, 2 feet side to side, 2 feet front to back, alternating feet, and wideouts or hop scotch

do it at 50% sppeed for 200 reps, once you can do that do it at 75% for 200 reps, then once you mastered the movements go to 50%-25, 75%-25, 100%-50

You can do that everyday with the workout above. Just do this before as a warmup to the plyo above and as a warmup for your basketball practices

And everyone else also suggested bball skills training and maybe do simple bodyweight training.
Quote from: Ineedtodunk on June 05, 2011, 04:13:22 pm
I agree with everyone's replies and suggestions on here.  You're really young.  Work on your basketball skills, and bodyweight exercises.  All this, while your body is still growing and maturing, you will continue improving your vertical, and later on you can start doing the advanced stuff.  It's not that I think you're not ready for the advanced stuff, but doing the advanced stuff right now won't benefit you much as it would later, and working on bodyweight stuff and bball skills will benefit you A LOT more right now. 

Also practice a lot of max jumps.  Practice jump form and technique whenever you play.

Didnt workout yesterday. Tired from 2hr of bbal practice. Late when I got home. Raining shit the whole night.
What do you think about the plyometric workout above? Is it too much work when I add in TAQ and bodyweight workouts?

Did a lot today. Some of them for fun.(not in order)

Dynamic Warm-up(including jump rope)
calf raises 2*20
squats: bodyweight 2*15, dumbbell squats 3kg 1*10
deadlift 3kg 2*10
squat jumps 2*10
lateral line hops

did some dumbbell exercises for fun
weighted crunches 1*20
this thing called 'alternate forearm bending' or something, but i think i did it wrong. Basically i just did a lot of dumbbells upper stuff. Legs feel alright but the arms feel tired

Is it alright to switch between workouts? like do 20 calf raises then do some squats without resting?

Just found this questionnaire d-rose jr gave to slowkidtryingtogetfast. I will answer it so you'll have a better idea of how I'm like:

1a. are you light on your feet? can you do 60 total lateral line hops in 10 seconds and 30 total single leg lateral line hops in 10 seconds? are proficient with a jump rope?

A. extremely slow on my feet,can only do 30lateral line hops in 10s.

1b. be lean. to the point where you can see a six pack or four pack. just dont be fat

A. no six packs, nor four.

1c. be mobile. touch heel to but? full bodyweight squat? touch toes? tight hip flexors?

A. i feel like i am pretty flexible. can almost touch heel to butt. can do full body squats if my legs aren't too wide apart.

1d. are you out of shape or in shape?

A. in shape, but got a lot of belly fat and my quads are also quite fat.

1e. are you proficient with your sprints?

A. I don't sprint very fast.

1f. are you hip dominant or quad dominant?

A. not sure...

1e. how many pushups can you do? how many chinups? how long can you hold a plank and side plank? can you do 50 single leg calf raises? can you hold the bottom position of a bss for 60 seconds? can you do 100 glute bridges/100 bodyweight squats?

A. I can do about 15 push-ups max; not sure about chin ups; plank and side plank are both around 1 min; calf-raises I feel like I can but I can't stay on balance when doing one legged one so no; never done BSS; not sure about glute bridges, I can do 100 bodyweight squats but it will be very hard.

Didn't workout for the past three days. Joined the rugby team this Monday, a lot of conditioning stuff did for that and also we did fitness for PE. Both made me tired so i needed some rest. Want to train but I am very tired and not sure if I am suppose to. Will start training maybe tomorrow.

Nice bro tell me how it goes, i just got your pm. btw where it says max its good to write the max (ex...Max =8 (atleast 7)) and if you want to log the workouts here is the logger

http://www.pushupslogger.com/

the logger helps alot since its nice to see your progress

good luck
