bw = 148.4 <-- WUT "CHYEA" (ssr7 level chyea)
soreness = glutes (still damn sore wtf)
aches/injuries = left ankle a little, in my old deltoid ligament sprain (pinched a few times today then felt fine when i was training), left achilles a little, left calf a little, back a little
fatigue = massive

LOL. You are a beat up mother.... Holy shit you're light though. Nice. On that overlay btw, you are so high. The reason it's so ridiculous to me is also because you're plantarflexed and it still looks like you're so high. Keep it up man. I predict big things in the coming fortnight..

ya I feel pretty shitty tonight.. hope tomorrow I feel better, I'm kind of set on trying to increase my max effort dunk/jump session frequency, so I'd love to get in a few jumps tomorrow night, i'd have about a half hour to do so.. interested to see how I feel tomorrow though.

peace man get back to logging  :-\   :pissed:   ;D

Introduce Yourself / Re: Yo Everyone

Right, Im new on here, so im not too sure what to write. My names Houtan, and my friend introduced me to this site literally 10 minutes ago, so i thought i could use some help from Pro's.

sup man, welcome, even though i welcomed you on irc :F

Okay, i play Ball for my College team in the UK. We have a decent team with alot of potential (Joint top after 5 games). i have been doing weights for a while, but would like extra information on essentials such as the nutrition and how to excell in my programme.

My Main reasons for doing a training programme is to assist me in Basketball, as I seem to very passionate about it, although I had never played it a while ago. Despite having my own programme, i would also be willing to take any extra information to improve my progress.
Heres some info about me:

Age: 16
Height: 187-188 cm (6'2")
Weight: 84 kg (around 12.5 - 13 stone)
Used to be overweight, but now im leaner, and im starting to grow more muscular.
Experience at Ball: 2 Months (yes, 2 months, but i am at a good level to say ive played only 2 months)
Training: Weights: 3 times a week (1-1.5 Hours)
Training: Ball: Everyday outside my house (1-3 hours depending on weather) and College Training (1-2 times a week)

what are some of your lifts (squat, lunge, pullups, dips/bench)? what's your training routine been like? If you plan on really trying to progress your athleticism, I would suggest starting a journal in the progress journals section, check the Start-Here item in the menu bar above for more info..

you must be pretty athletic to play for a college team with only 2 months of experience, impressive. Soccer player's have great footwork/athleticism, definitely helps to have that background.

I have played other sports before Basketball, but didnt really enjoy it too much. I aint too sure where most of you are from on this site, so ill just say I played "Soccer" for 4 Years. 4 disappionting and boring years. I also recieved a GCSE in PE, so i was reasonable to good at all sports.

I hope i didnt bore you too much with all that, but i just wanted to make sure everyone had suffiecent information.

Thank you very much.

peace man

Man. 148. Thats light. No wonder you feel light when walking.

most "men" would think i'm crazy for wanting to get so light, but I don't give a fu&k :) i feel better when light, and i jump/perform better, have more energy, more endurance, everything feels effortless.. ya i love it.

 :o INSANE overlay!!!! Danggg dude...I hope you ingrain the motor patterns for tricks so that you're more comfortable performing 'em cuz you SURE AS HELL got the height for it!!! *MIND-BLOWN*

haha thanks man, to both posts..

ya about the dribbling, tonight idribbled, made yesterday look crappy compared to tonight.. i mean already so many movements are back, barely messed up tonight and worked on some crazy transitions/other moves.. i got into it real good with a few songs.. ya man i got to keep up with the dribbling, i want to get some vid of what i can really do, in that realm.. would be fun, cause i literally get into some dance-like shit which is pretty cool, i can go 3-8 minutes completely non stop etc trying to match a song.

i think finally im pretty focused on getting back into dribbling, mostly because i am trying to get into more areas for video content hahaha.. i do love it though, dno why i always stop for the last few years.

i'm focused now though :D

peace & thanks!

some random dribbling from tonight too, i need to stay consistent on this for at least 1 week so i can drop a cool video.. lol i barely dribble, eventually i could drop some really cool shit if i just stuck with it.. i got so many weird transitions/movements that people don't often see.. more like dancing with a ball... alot of room for improvement this is just some sub-optimal footage for the time being, just want to see how it looked, rendered.

going to upload a few dribbling clips from tomorrow too (not related to basketball-drills thread, taking 2 hours to render the vid), first time dribbling hard in zoom waffles, felt amazing.. loved it.. havn't been dribbling so i screwed up more than normal but i have to stay consistent, i could drop some fun stuff with in-game handles/dribbling videos... i want to drop a 10 min vid just swagging out dribbling, no messups ;d .. my movement seemed very good/explosive/stiff, i was happy with it.


10/23/2010

BW = 149.4 <-- i took a pic on my cam for fun, of teh scale
soreness = quads/glutes, mostly glutes, sheeeeit
aches/injuries = felt pretty good
fatigue = woke up 2pm, had a bad sleep, felt tired by 3pm, slept from 3:30 to 7pm, went to dunk at 8:30pm.. fatigue was way less when i woke up at 7pm, still felt sleepy until i got warmed up tho then i felt good

workout #1: dunks
- check pics abuv ^^^
- felt good initally, dropped off after like 10 jumps.. wind messed alot of my lobs up.. landed some nasty dunks, didnt think they came out good until i checked out vid
- saving vid of a few more sessions then going to put it in a mix or something.. so im saving this footage and last session etc.



workout #2:
- dips: 2, 2, 3, 5, 7, 8, 10, 8, 8, 8, 8, 5,
- half squat @ 148 lb: 225, 235, 235, 235, 235, 235,
- calf raise: 45 lb bar @ 30,30,30,30,30

squatting felt weak, glutes /quads just too sore.. good sign though, im strong right now considering.. hah

ok peace!!!!!
















This one looks soooooooooo high. Look where your head is!!!!!!  :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o

thanks man, ya i remember that jump specifically.. i had to jump backwards to try and stay really vertical to get the lob, then realized i havn't been thinking of jumping backwards which really helps me.. i remember that jump koz it felt damn high even though i screwed up the dunk attempt with the bad lob.

peace!@$!@

pc!




so i played today's game.
rim was slightly lower than the high rim i posted a vid of.

off a dropstep, i could get an inch above. this was like my 2nd attempt. (dropstep = 1 step, leading to the plant and jump right?)

needless to say, i was psyched, cos i couldnt do it previously. but during halftime, i tried a few RVJ, only managed at best 2 inches above.
sure i was fatigued, and my groin is sore like no other, but disappointing nonetheless.

well, good and bad about the jumps.. i mean those drop step jumps were good, if you got more jump sessions in during the week your jumping would definitely be better.. it's ok man just keep trying to get those sessions in, you have more in you..

peace
