Hey Guys I just have a few questions about my summer training

1. Water Plyometrics

I did my first workout of them today 3x10 jumps (ass touches toes then explode up), 3x10 pistol squat jumps. Compared to doing it on the grass, doing it in the water put little stress on my knees (jumpers knee) and my legs still felt like they got a good workout.
My question is has anybody else done this and if so do you have a program you followed

2. Squatting using my bench as my rack
I dont have a rack since im not in the city, but i do have a bench. Has anybody used there bench to squat? im guessing rack the bar get under it and then stand up.. Itd be easier if i was shorter...

Also does anybody have any jump rope routines ?

nope, i just interval them, fast.. ~2-3 minutes on, 1-2 minutes off... i mix it up randomly with how i do my feet.. left/right, LL/RR, double, and all kinds of weird variations.

"Now Cornell University neurobiologists, studying the adrenal glands of rats, have discovered how chronic stress cranks up the intensity of this adrenaline response. The key to this so-called molecular memory resides in a donut-shaped protein on the surface of cells that secrete adrenaline, the hormone also known as epinephrine."

PED's in drug free sports is cheating, unethical, and weak. Athletes and/or coaches who condone/display this behavior can get lost.


"But you have never felt the burn that you get in the hip flexors from pulling back on the pedal stroke, you have never done the exercise in your life. Squatting ain't doing shit for your hip flexors blu." -- sickenin vendetta.

Occasionally, as in rarely, I go in the pool do do scissor swimming (don't know what else to call it). On my side, I just forcefully scissor, kind of like bounding actually, and then I relax after each one as my body propels itself forward. This works out my hamstrings pretty well. Can do it on your back too but you dont scissor, ou just do a forceful kick like a dolphin or a frog.. i dno how to describe it.  

I's basically swimming's equivalent of "striding" in sprints, whre you just take long powerful strides and don't worry aobut runnign as fast as you can.

Other than that I don't do them because I don't have any weight but if I could get a kettlebell or a squat rack in there and do some deads and front squats and jump squats it's be way better. Has anyone deadlifted in a pool before? That would be my new favorite. I would neevr deadlift on the ground again if I could deadlift in a pool. edit: well sorta

I've done those vandersteen squats, but only in a half squat position. Again without weight I didn't feel like maknig a routine out of them.
