went to movies + ate 1.5 lb of 'frozen yogurt style' ice cream (peanutbutter) + peanutbutter m&m's and coconut shavings.. man that shit killed me.

10/17/2010

bw = 150.6 <---!@$!@$!@$!@$!@ sickckskckck
soreness = none
aches/injuries = none
fatigue = medium


my plan to 'peak tues' got wrecked, mom coming over with pizza for my grandpa sooo.. and wednesday i have to go out for something.. so that leaves tomorrow.. my dad comes home late which will only give me like 30min to dunk but i'm only trying to land some max height anyway, so thats fine.. hope i can do that tomorrow.

since the unsuspecting change of plans, i did some unconventional shit which i used to do back when i was peaking RVJ last year.. it gave me shin splints last year but i bet i'd be fine doing it now.. let's see what happens.



workout:
- nearly max effort pogo jumps: about 20 sets of 2-5 in 1.5 hours, off and on, lots of rest in between.. couldn't go max effort cause of the 8' ceiling, don't wanna hit my head on it.
- glute bridges: in the process, but 6-10 x 50, insane glute strength right now, it feels weightless eheh

ill probably do light pogos throughout the day tomorrow.

peace!

10-17-10  Session 1

Probably still fatigued from all that jumping two days ago but I wanted to get back to work so I can jump even higher!

It's been almost a month since I have rep'd squats so I'll probably be really sore and my vert will probably go down a bit but it's ok because I know it's there.

Dynamic warmup, sprint warmup

3 max ~10 yard sprints, felt really fast but I didn't have a stopwatch.

24" dj's 4x5- don't know exactly how high I was getting as I didn't have the vertec but they felt good (no collapsing or heavy/dead feeling). Did jumps for head height on a low ceiling (measured it to be about 7'10.5") and I was moving ceiling tile at least an inch so I'm gonna say they were around 27.5" which is really good. PR on 24" dj's for sure, I think pr for 18" was 27.5 or 28. Last week 24" dj's were horrible so this is a good improvement.

squat warmup: 135x5 185x3 225x1 255x1

275x5 275x5 275x6 - all 3 sets were really hard but that's definitely a 3x5 pr

lunge: 195x3x5

barbell calf raise: 135x4x5

core circuit x2

dammmn sick work coming back into session-1.. 24" dj's feeling good/PR was inevitable, awesome you got it already.. you shouldn't have as much fatigue from session-1 as a few weeks back.

peace

crazy jump on those pics. Make a mix with more 2 handed dunks.

thanks man.. ya right now i'm working on this project, it's weird, most dunks will be max height one handers for the next few weeks.. i might throw in some other stuff occasionally, but i'm going to drop an epic video with some "mind-blown" techniques.

i land a nice two hander in "like a G6 dunk mix" and "intergalactic dunk mix".. G6 one is the best though.

peace man!

Maybe you were kidnapped? :ninja:

You probably have bionic legs now, so you better go out and test them.

that would be awesome, to get abducted by aliens and then they inject you with supreme vert enhancing technology.

bw = 151.6 or something
soreness = none
aches/injuries = none
fatigue = medium


worked on vid editing all day, quick workouts tonight


workout #1: squat + curls + pushups
- slightly below parallel squat: 225 @ 3 singles, modrately heavy
- 3" bar curls: 5, 10, 12, 12
- pushups + 10 lb: 20, 22, 24, 25, 25, 25, bw: 25,


im 152 right now eheh!@$!@

left patella tendon insertion is bugging a little, going deeper aggravated it but whatever, i'll try it again next session (tomorrow probably), hopefully it'll just be nothing.. going deeper felt pretty good tonight, all of the glute/ham work i've been doing has made it easier for sure, considering i havn't been going deep on squat in a long time..

i'm super low squat volume right now and i'm trying to relax more in general.. so far so good :D

peace

If you want a guy who plants VEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERY far away in front, check out Helicopter from AND1.

I can't find it right now, but there was a dunk in the AND1 mixtape tour where he planted like 10 feet in front of him.

helicopter was SICK, but he gained too much weight & looks much less athletic now.. he can still get up alright, i think he's what like 6'3 or so? we have a thread on here of someone who plants real far from rim too, double leg, some college guy, i'll try to find it in the next 5 minutes.

PS: You can see here http://www.pure-dedication.com/various_images/golden_child_dunk_1c.png what I was talking about in the ARowe thread regarding the "opening up laterally" of the arms in the gather. He does not gather throwing his arms back and then rotating, but rather to the side and then rotating in and up.

ya, arowe is much more of a "linear bilateral planter".. i throw myself in more laterally.. a "lateral armswing" like that, I imagine, goes hand in hand with the quad dominant/calf dominant jumpers, like GC, myself, etc.. planting sideways allows us to load up the ankles way more, planting bilateral-linear most often has one heel striking significantly.

i should get back to making more pictures like that, those are nice.. very fun to check out.. crazy-weird analysis subforum has some toys, it needs more.

peace man
