Not sure what has been up with my body the last couple weeks, but I have not felt springy at volleyball. It could be the resumption of weightlifting, but I think it might be a combination of things. I have also had some weird psuedo-cold this week that might be draining my energy a bit. I ate like shit on my birthday which is fine since I know I won’t continue doing it. Plus, all the desserts were really good. I am more disappointed with how my body has been performing than anything else. So I need to figure that out.

Also, my sleep was trash. There is a very clear connection between consumption of alcohol and my sleep quality. Just two drinks messed with my ability to sleep well. According to Garmin, I was awake at 12:15 a.m. for a short time, from 12:46-12:50 a.m., from 1:38-1:48 a.m., a short time at 2:18 a.m., from 2:39-2:51 a.m., and a short time at 3:16 a.m. GROSS. So I am going to keep sticking with my general avoidance of alcohol.

Introduce Yourself / New to the board, not so new to jumping
« on: March 17, 2011, 10:36:47 pm »
Hey what's going on...I joined yesterday but haven't posted because I was waiting until I got a video.  I'm a 25 year old (almost 26) guy from the midwest who's pretty much just into sports in general.  Right now I'm just playing volleyball, basketball, and slow pitch softball.

Anyway, I'm just trying to work on increasing my vertical.  I used to be able to jump higher back in my high school/college days and I've lost a little bit, so I'm going to try to get it back.  I'm only about 5'11 with shoes on so I need all the vertical I can get.  Anyway...here's a vid of what I can do now, any tips on what you think might help are appreciated...

Note: I didn't really have time to warm up for the vid as I had to be somewhere and my recording got delayed by rain.  It was also windy and sort of cold so I couldn't do any lobs really, and the rim also wasn't breakaway and tore the shit out of my hands...but no excuses.  I'll try to post some better efforts later.  And oh yeah, remember to switch the vid to 720p...makes it look a little better I think.  Anyway, I'm out...
