@Adarqui --- hey man i left feedback on my experience on air alert  and the first 3-4 replies to my post have been very strange and weird for this being a feedback thread. its weird how u opened this thread, i post my experience, and then people seem to almost immediately go against my experiences, and imp articular my posts. i cant imagine myself saying "hey let me browse the air alert thread for someone to bash or taunt or put down, or offer non-constructive criticism too". its funny to me because before i posted noone was talking, then i post and they talk, what i took as disrespect. are they really just sitting there waiting for someone to post so they can comment? weird.....

well thanks for posting your experience with air alert, but their point is this:

your vert was _______________15 inches_________________.. you could have done plenty of different programs or simply jumping alot + getting in great shape to gain inches.. adding 9 inches to a 15 inch vert, and maintaining those inches over the years, doesn't imply that the program "is effective".. any running vert of sub-30 can pretty much be improved by getting in shape and jumping.. getting to 40+ requires intensive resistance training.. most people who claim gains with air alert, are claiming improvements from "horrible" starting points or at a very young age where natural maturation occurs... if you had said you went from 32" RVJ to 41" RVJ using air alert, and posted vids etc, then people would be surprised but very interested.


"getting back at it now this July 2011, so i am gonna keep weight training too. still got the 24" vert so i've kept the inches i gained before. so i started airalert this morning all the way from week 1 low reps. "

having not trained "properly", then just getting back into it, and maintaining "the gains by air alert", just indicates pure maturation etc.. if air alert added 9, and REALLY ADDED 9, you'd go back to near 15 by detraining (not using air alert).

dno it was after i landed this nasty warmup two hander, which was actually my best dunk make of the night... i didnt have cam on.. then i brought cam out and threw a bad lob and just coasted in the air for head height.. haha

ya i dno wtf is going on there.. oddness

looks dope tho

im going to dunk again tomorrow.. should be interesting... going to use the normal ball, not lob ball.. felt better with normal ball but i let some people use it.

Maybe I just have really crappy vision for these things... but I'm pretty sure that's the highest still I've seen.

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

i personally have never liked water plyos..

ass to toes? what? lool

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...

ya it's doable, got to make do with what you got.

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.

I'm not sure what the hope is for the guy. I mean, he's dedicated but has failed to actually DO stuff that works, even when presented to him, again and again.

Ouch.

Well yeah, some people just don't get it (think CoolColJ). They stay at their huge bodyfat or low strength and expect to act athletically, and then, when they actually do work and put effort to get their strength right and athleticism they mess up with doing silly stuff like marathons and endless conditioning or just do something else.

coolcolj started getting pretty strong, but he was way too fat, jumped 1x/week, then got even more out of shape by not jumping much at all, then got injured by jumping while being out of shape + too fat + too "strong".

he completely disregarded body composition, thinking that strength in squat relative to his bodyweight was all that mattered.. unfortunately that is a very unhealthy way to look at vert training.

scoob has something very important coming, and yet again it's another "deadline" it seems.. "i need to dunk by xxx".. deadlines are fine, as long as you don't abandon your training/goal temporarily if you fail to achieve the goal by that deadline. he has a history of doing this, so, he needs to prepare with that in mind... many of us are guilty of that at some point, but we can't allow that to keep happening over and over.
