See, the problem is not what you do, the problem is how you interpret things.

You are NOT stuck at 37''. You are a 35 year old hard working dad with very limited hours availabvle for training, yet you were able to build and now able to maintain a VERY good running vertical jump. LBSS, raptor, me and may others have never jumped a 37'' DLRVJ. Don't seek solutions to get unstuck. You are not stuck. Keep doing what got you here.
Once again, DLRVJ is not rocket science, on the contrary it is as simple as it gets. Squat heavy to get stronger, do some explosive stuff for RFD, jump a lot to maintain movement efficiency at the jump itself, keep your body composition under control, that's it!
Not saying you are doing something wrong now. But you DON'T have to go crazy with fasting and i don't know what, bread with olive oil. You were great already, i remember you got to 8%bf with a deep six-pack and some thick-ass blood pipes easy last time you tried.
You are kinda gifted. You respond good to training. You are capable of building strength fast and consistent. Staying lean too. Use those tools. Don't sabotage yourself trying 'new stuff', you don't need new stuff.

Boost is awesome.
However, the 'regular' ones have a pretty high layer of foam. It is firm and bouncy and perfect, but i am a slow DL jumper, i think SL jumping could have stability issues.
If you decide to get boosts, i would suppose that you would feel better in the racing flats, it is the adios series.

haha thanks vag. i wonder what my peak day has been in terms of views. average is about 45/day.

Actually, i have been logging the views statistics for 2 years now, started doing it when i was afraid the forum would die to see the trend but still keep it, for fun. Unfortunately, i am not OCD enough to do it daily, i log them weekly.
So, long story short, our views are fake. They were normal till June 2014 ( 100-300 views per week each ) but then they suddenly doubled-tribled and they stayed like this till today. It didn't happen linearly but literally overnight. Probably bots. For example, entropy's previous journal still gets an average of 500 views per week. Flander's journal ( before he came back ) was 0-5 views , then ( while he still had not came back ) shot up to 200. An active journal's average now is 500-800 views per week. You get the picture.
For the record, in the first week of March 2015 you had a crazy spike of 1780 views which is your highest. Not just you, those spikes apply to everyone ( me and raptor had ~1600 that week ). Next week all back to normal. Happens every 2-3 months, no idea what it is. The biggest spike recorded was mine ( 2200, dafuq? ) , entropy and you also spiked at ~1400 that week.

Squat Max Rep: 1.33333 x BW

Let me spoil it a little for you. Relative strength is very important, but relative strength is also, relatively judged.
Take a look at this: http://www.exrx.net/Testing/WeightLifting/SquatStandards.html

At 132 lbs BW , novice level is 170 ( 1.28*BW ) and intermediate is 205 ( 1.55@BW ).
At 181 lbs BW , novice level is 220 ( 1.21*BW ) and intermediate is 270 ( 1.49@BW ).
At 220 lbs BW , novice level is 245 ( 1.11*BW ) and intermediate is 300 ( 1.36@BW ).

The lighter you are , the easier it is to squat a given percentage of your bodyweight.

That said, 80kg is WAY better than 60kg and 1.33*BW is WAY better than 1*BW. Makes more sense too, 60kg max squat was as ridiculous as the 3 calf raises recent story, does not compute.
Also some crazy strength imbalances ( quads vs hamstrings ) at your numbers are now coarsened and make more sense. Nice.

I feel much better about my squat. Once I was able to hold 100kg halfway from the hole and the top which shows I was close to squatting 100kg then started drifting down lol.

Start squatting again. Those 100kg, go get them!
