smart move there.. change those GHR sets to 3x5 for now also not the 5x5, once your hamstrings get real adapted then we'll go back to 5x5.

how did the reactive work feel?



Reactive work felt pretty good actually. Stomach felt a little uncomfortable from the stiff ankles during pogos and tuck jumps, but other than that it was good. My distance increased up to the fourth time on two legged bound, which I found interesting since I wasn't ever trying any harder.

ya that's because your body was handling the force better on each landing.. consistent reactive work will have that transfer over to jumping/sprinting etc.

good movie, loved it.. production/directing was really nice too.


adarq gives it two thumbs up :F

also, the 'computer hacking' portion of the film was actually legit, not some matrix 3d bullshit you see in most movies.. *nix shells, wget scripts, php/sql bugs, cool ;d

no soreness at all in my legs today AND last night i was possibly the most flexible ive ever been in my life, odd.. was putting chin on knee during my hamstring stretches with no discomfort, might have had something to do with my jumping being so jello. quads easily made heel go to butt.



... i laced my shoes up tight 2 days in a row for quite a long time, must have something to do with it..

ordered a weighted vest :D


peace

yaa man, i gota lace up tight for bboy sessions, i kno the feelin on top of ya foot after bouncing around  tight up.
find ur peroneus tertius and giv that sum massage, relieved a lot of discomfort for me. might help u if u experiencin the same thing xD

i stretched it out good last night, helped a bit, woke up today, so far feeling alot better.. gonna wear my bball shoes today, they have alot of cushion etc..

how heavy is the vest? can u custom the weight??

peace

its no weight, you can put weight plates in it, 2.5-10 lb plates, which i have, so, we'll see how that goes.. if it's bad ill buy little insert weights for it, but i think it'll be good.

i'm going to be out until tonight, food/movies @!$!$

Sick k.o.!  I remeber when Overeem fought at 205, now he is 255-260 ripped.  It was funny when all the pride fighters came to the u.f.c. with the more in depth drug testing, alot of the better/more well know guys didnt, Overeem, Mark Coleman (until he cleaned up and came in 50 lbs lighter as a light heavyweight), Kevin Randleman, etc.   

ya, they all came in way weaker than they were in pride.. shogun was injured originally so no idea how he would have really come in, right now he's killing people.. rampage came in a beast, but he's naturally a beast.. most all of the pride guys though got their asses handed to them. i would have loved to see fedor/overeem in ufc but that'll probably never happen.. gomi got SCHOOLED, who knows though, he might be able to do something.. no one is going to mess with frankie edgar though, he is very impressive, he schooled bj penn twice, worse the second time, don't see anyone messing with him for a while.

the tops of my feet are killing me so bad, i laced my shoes up tight 2 days in a row for quite a long time, must have something to do with it.. waffle racers, i can tighten them up pretty hardcore and i have to be careful with it, think i had left them tight for too long....... sheeeeeeeeeeeeeeiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit... 'tops of feet' are throbbing heh.

ordered a weighted vest :D

i've never squatted on a 'standard bar' so I really don't know.. I'd imagine weight would 'feel' heavier/less stable on a standard bar, because of how small it is and how the ends don't usually rotate.. not sure though, never had a standard bar in any gym i've been in.

The guys here are pussys , most gyms don't even have a squat rack and this one that im going and has a squat rack uses normal bars , not only for squats , everywhere , bleh!
Previous gym had nice oly bars ( even the small EZ bar had thick rotating ends ) but no squat rack , meh...
There's a new gym opening near my home and it looks like a good one, lets see...

damn that SUCKS.. hope this new gym has oly bars, i can't imagine them not having oly bars, any new gym should have them?!@?!$?!@

Day 1 on Adarqui's program.

- Warmup: Light jog, hurdle mobility drills.
- SPRINT WARMUP: 5x10 yard sprints.

- DOUBLE-LEG BOUND: 5 x 5 bounds
- MR tuck jumps: 4 x 10
- MR pogos: 4 x 5


- SQUAT: 3 x 5 @ 180 lbs.
- GHR: 1x5. Cut short because I felt like I was going to pull my right hamstring.
- CALF RAISE: 4 x 10 w/ 80 lbs.. At first I thought it wouldn't be enough in the end, but it was. Must be because I've never really done much calf work with weights.

- Dips/pullups/core rotation. 3x8 dips, 3x8 pullups, 3x8 pikes. Done in supersets.
- Stretch.

My right hamstring started feeling a little off after my first set of squats. Doing squats wasn't a problem but when I got to the GHR I felt like I was going to pull it. Decided to cut it short to avoid injury.

smart move there.. change those GHR sets to 3x5 for now also not the 5x5, once your hamstrings get real adapted then we'll go back to 5x5.

how did the reactive work feel?

For a post workout shake I used:
-1 banana
-2 eggs
-2 scoops of pinole (Mexican powdered corn drink mix. Seems to be pretty good for energy and it has some protein in it. Usually I'll use it whenever I don't use whey protein or whenever I've run out.)
-24 oz. milk (about, didn't really bother measuring)


raw eggs dayyuumm.

big PR tonight!@$!@ <-- HEH

10/5/2010

bw = 154
soreness = glutes slightly
aches/injures = top of feet really achy, couldnt even tie shoes tight tonight during jumps, right plantar fasciitis possibly
fatigue = feel good

workout: vertec jumps + strength
- warming up on rim jumps, didn't have the kind of pop i expected but i was like whatever.. put up vertec
- SVJ on vertec: 122" touch WEAK
- 1-step RVJ on vertec: 128" WEAK
- L-SLRVJ: 3 jumps, 122" touch bwahahahah, leg collapsing
- bad-jumps: probably around 12-15, collapsing in plant and jumping into the vertec, actually jumping into it.. PR PR PR.. i don't think i've ever had that many bad jumps in a session ever haha.. my legs felt good all day but when i started my jumping, my mechanics/plant was so wrecked, shit was insane..
- somehow i had massive jello legs, everything was off, CNS was haywire

- pin 11 squat: 225 @ 6 x 10, 245 @ 2 x 5
- ^^ basically falling asleep in between sets 5 through 8, "overtraining basically".. that squat volume made my eyes really tired, i might fall asleep early.. cool




ok well, i definitely can't overdo the tuck jumps the day before jumping, i got a bit greedy.. i really have to get my squat alot higher, it's pissing me off now.. hitting the volume was fun, but i need to be able to rep 315 like that.. i plan on squatting again for volume on thursday, even though i have to be fresh on saturday.. squat needs some priority right now, jumping will be decent, but squat needs to go up.. i'll reduce fatigue when i need to jump & caff up still.

if all goes well, i'll do this:

thurs = jumps + plyo + high vol squat
sat = dunk session + high vol squat
mon = jumps + plyo + high vol squat
wed = jumps + plyo + high vol squat
saturday = dunk session + plyo + high vol squat

etc


peace

need to make a push for sub 150 !!@$!@%


10/4/2010

bw = 153
soreness = glutes, low back slightly
aches/injuries = right hip a little
fatigue = a little

diet:
- half protein shake + 3 bananas
- burger on pumpernickle + 1 banana
- half protein shake
- workout
- protein shake
- protein shake + turkey & cheese sandwhich



workout: low volume jumping + high volume reactive
- sprint warmup to court (1.5 miles)
- jumps: didn't do a ton, did like 2 x 5each LR-DLRVJ alternating with RL-DLRVJ, then 10 each leg L-SLRVJ alternating with R-DLRVJ
- lots of power on my relaxed jumps, really had alot of spring.. only jumped from 2 steps on DLRVJ
- on the one LR-DLRVJ that i put alot into got 33 off 2 steps, went back to relaxed jumps.. good sign
- L-SLRVJ was easy 30's, relaxed
- EDIT: my glute cramped up pretty bad during SLRVJ, right glute.. those damn VJ TO SS ada trashed my glutes on saturday.

- MR tuck jumps: 50, 50, 40, 40, 40, 60, 60
- 1-step DLRVJ to SQUAT ADA: about 10 x 1 (during a 3 mile walk)

done



interested to see how i feel tomorrow, i feel real crappy right now, but my recent dunk session came after tons of tuck jumps, so it'll be interesting to see what i jump tomorrow if i feel good.. if i feel real shitty i'll possibly put it off until wednesday (if possible) for the vertec jumps, i want 35" off 2 steps, would be sick.. would like my SVJ to go up a bit past 122" touch too heh.

regardless, have to be peaked saturday for some big dunks, dunking with eddie.

peace

50, 50, 40, 40, 40, 60, 60 of tuck jumps is a lot!!

are they any good ??

well, i recommend staying between 10-20 reps, for MAX EFFORT tucks, i'd stay in the 10 rep range.. i'm experimenting with volume and 'near max effort' tuck jumps etc.. since i've brought back the high rep reactive work my jumping has really been on point.. if you incorporate tuck jumps/pogos etc, just do them before lifting (and after jumping if you do any jumps), for example; warmup, (optional jumps), reactive work (tucks/pogos/etc), lifts, core, ...

peace!

That is the brand. The MIR vest is great quality and definitely adjustable. My 60 pounder can be adjusted in both weights inserted into it and the size of the thing across both the shoulders and the stomach straps.

nice!!$@@!%!
