[200,250x4][300x2][350,400,415x1]

* i got my 3hr pre-workout sleep + a pre-work out sub max lift in the morning. only got enough strength to do a strict paused lift with 415x1. i will need to back off a bit now on the SVJs and let my legs catch up. i am dunking too much.. 8-10reps 2x a day lately.  and those SVJs are clustered together. within a minute most of the time.

* legs fatigued coming from high volume SVJ dunks. not very happy feeling this weak but at the time of the SVJ dunks, i did not care if the 400s become very heavy.

* getting some strength back. would be happy if i can go 425+ later. need to stop dunking too much. just enough jumps to get speed going. its addicting sometimes and hard to stop smashing the rim.

* got something over the 400x1 but still doesn't feel that il get a clean 425. stopped at 400 to get more recovery. skipped the jumps.


pic of goriila hands - too much dunking lately



that circle looking mark there is from the rim chins i do on the last dunk.

* did 2x 400x1 because i don't feel like lifting anything heavier and tiring myself before work, but the single 400x1 did not cut it.  pause was strict and concentric was explosive.

* feeling weak after the strong 400x1. need more BW. high 160s is not cutting it for me, or it could be the 6+hr sleep, or the work nights. will only lift 1x today. recovery and diet needs to catch up

[200,250x4][300x2][350x1]

* after a 3.5hr nap, legs felt explosive and ready for another set of squats (or i thought). the explosiveness of the quads quickly died out after the 250x4 reps. lol. i overdid the speed work on the SVJ dunks. 350x1 was still from a complete and strict pause but i lost all the motivation to lift more after that rep. first time in a while a sub 400 weight felt heavy on the legs. 350 is a doable 20rep breathing- squat weight for me on a strong day.

* work night starts. taking it lightly. recovered nicely with the 5hr sleep. will go thru 415-420 for first lifts of the day or after 10+ hrs of nonlifting to get better coordination.

* felt good using 415x1 as another warmup single to start the day. the 420x1 was also easy. could have gotten 425 after the 420 but saved it for the 2nd workout. BW now at 168s. need to eat some more to keep up with the 2-3x/day lifting and speed work.

[200,250x4][300x2][350,400,415x1]

* wet BW was 168. damn. twig mode. lifts were not so bad but i probably used up more than i had to on the first workout. form was perfect. sleep was complete. leg fatigue too much right now. need to back off a bit.
* even with the weak squat numbers, my SVJ is just peaking right now. i just did 8 SVJ 2-hand dunks in less than a minute. 1 was even a back to back because i was able to get the ball right away ~ less than 4 secs in between.

^ i was a 5'10 PF/Center back in highschool imitating the moves of sir charles barkeley. i unathletically crab dribbled my way against lighter defenders.. good cardio conditioning with endurance cycling helped me more. i was outrunning smaller people just like my idol.

i don't jump over people. i box out and wait for the ball to come to me. strong legs that get you jumping high also makes you hard to unplant once you decide you want to be at that space.. :strong:

[200,250x4][300x2][350,400,415x1]

* after a perfect 3hr pre-workout nap, i'm now pretty sure that the supra max 500s waveloaded lifts i did a couple of days back dished out some fatigue that needs more than a days worth of sleep. the 400x1 was still easy but it just did not feel as easy as usual.
* might be a stupid idea but i thought that i may just not be mentally into the workout.. so i did not put the safety pins on for my 415x1 paused rep and made sure i will ballistically push the weight up. worked but still not convincingly strong. stopped there.

* i'm back to strong but will not go supra max 1/2s yet. will do it tmrw. BW at 168-170. SVJ 2-hand dunks consistent now straight from the squat rack. no running or pickup games.

[200,250x4][300x2][350,400x1]

* got 5 hr sleep, felt a lot better. 400x1 paused was easy but as a first lift of the day - i stopped there. coordination did not feel very smooth.

[200,250x4][300x2][350,400,425x1]
- 455,475x1
- [500x1 + 455x2] x2

* this is more like it. i'm sleep recovered now. went all the way to 500x1 paused rep 1/2 then waveloaded down to 455x2. the 455x2 that followed felt very easy and explosive. i really emphasized on the pause on the 1/2 depth then 1 big explosion to drive the bar up. stopped at 2 waveloads as i plan to do these daily too.
* my chest is getting ripped. need to stop doing BW dips at the workouts. i'm doing controlled single sets of reps to 30, 34 max with non-moving lowerbody, 36 and the legs start to do its own thing.
* ditched the seated cable rows for head supported barbel rows at home. feels a lot more comfortable and i can really focus on beefing up the middle back.
* might lift again later.

* got 1.5hr nap. was trying to gauge how a heavy supra max workout affects the next. it got me tired a bit but not too much that id regress. the 400x1 was easy just like any other day when i'm firing right and get my pre workout sleep. would have gotten 425x1 too. did not bother pushing too much.

Daily Squats Maintenance - Paused Reps / Supra Max 1/2 Squats Paused
[200,250x4][300x2][350,400x1]

* was only able to lift 1x yesterday, and coming from an almost 24hr layoff, legs were very fresh but i was not strong at all. lack of sleep - 6hr yesterday and 4 hr today + detraining = weak CNS.
* 200-350 warmups felt normal but the 400 felt at least 20lbs heavier. this is my 3-day workweek so i will be able to lift again later at ~9-10pm after another 3-4hr nap. exited on how strong i can come back later.
* workouts following 24hr+ de-training is mentally more challenging to me than doing the 3rd workout of the day. multiple workouts/day = more sore/stiff legs but its something that tells me i'm stronger. if i feel fresh and fully recovered, most of the time - i will suck.

* 400x1 felt a lot lighter now but still not feeling recovered from the work week. will need another batch of deep sleep and rest.

- 455,475,500x1
- 525x0
- 345x1 FS

* slept 5.5hrs after work which is perfect before a workout (but most likely suck the rest of the day from lack of complete sleep). will skip 2nd lift if i'm mentally fatigued later.
* lowerback is really solid now. got 20-30lbs over the paused 425x1. tried the 525x1 supra 1/2 (3xBW) and held the bottom 1/2 paused to see if i can control the weight. i can use 525 on my non-work days. its not prohibitively heavy. i just did not have the drive to concentric this weight today because its my work night and i will not get a post workout nap.
* i was able to fight and hold the 1/2 depth pause with 525 and everything was still solid. no shaking or any signs of the weight overpowering me. i probably can still get to mid 500s without having troubles with the setup. will use 525x1 max waveloaded with 455.

* lowerback tightness almost gone. 1-2 more of these recovery lifts and i'l be back at it again. i really need to lower the frequency of my SVJ dunks. can't do them 2-3x/day with the squats. too much landing forces.

somatotropin.. hmm..  i smell that on workdays.. need to snort that thing and train like mendez until i get to superheavyweight beast level too.  :strong:

srs - is that supposed to get mendez ligaments/joints strong enough for his muscles?? whats the main benefit he gets from taking it.. that is assuming he only used 1 type of PED which is most likely not the case.
