just posting pics for now, still have more workout to do later.. insane volume relaxed tuck jumps ftw.. i got horrible sleep, jumped within an hour of waking up, yet still jumped good.. i had so much reactivity today.. didn't land any dunks but got up high.

Yes and he probably hit in the middle of the square, like 12 inches lower because of the angle.

i saw him hot lower but i think that has to do with him about to collide into the backboard.. think about it, from my elbow to tip of my finger is 21", if i got head to rim i'd heave 3" over the top of the square.. he's 6'4, his head is at rim, he should be well over the top of the square which he is.. dno i  think that pic is pretty accurate.

This seems so complex, I don't think I'll really remember all that. The next time I go out and do some sprinting/plyos I might try this out.

ya just wing it at first from what you remember on the vid.. don't need to get crazy about it.. just stay relaxed and use it to get loose/wake up.

this would be something similar to what you would do at most performance facilities prior to training, most likely minus the activation stuff.. you can just skip that.

peace man

[04:40am] ssr7: he told me that if my box jump improves then my vert would

how'd you spell out your email address?

Guy paddled over and pointed his camera at me, and I spelled it out to the camera.

imagine if he was like some psychopathic serial killer and now he's going to hunt you down, because in his twisted mind he thinks you pooped in the canal and destroyed some wildlife.

shit.

i'd say this jump is not far off of this.. little angle prior to hit but should be real close to what we see.. nasty

It's silly to try and touch the backboard... your hand will be leaning forward so it will be much lower than a full extension upwards...

If you want to measure something try a vertec.

Indeed , and here his hand has a huge angle , the difference with some frames before touching the board is obvious.
For freaks in the 50'' area , head height is more useful for calculating.
But for all of us caught in the mid/low/high 30's , highest touch is the way , so its really funny/nice to see someone like Darlington attempt a highest touch...

ya i love seeing jumps like that.. for those guys, it has to be weird to high touch because they can smash their face on the backboard.. like ripp said on irc "it's like he's jumping up to high touch on a wall".. so ya it'll get skewed.

bw = 157
soreness = none
aches/injuries = lower back bugging (from the paused chinups), left heel a bit (better than last few days tho)

workout got kind of messed up, pavement/sidewalks/court was all wet, heavy rain storms stopped around 11pm



workout:
- walk to bball court: ~1.3 miles
- svj's until i slipped (after warmup): about 6

here's where the fun starts:
- C1: RELAXED MR tuck jumps with slight linear displacement: 25
- C1: SVJ x 1
- C1-info: 4 rounds, rest between exercises and after SVJ

- RELAXED MR tuck jumps with slight linear displacement: 60

- C2: RELAXED MR tuck jumps with slight linear displacement: 25
- C2: SVJ x 1
- C2-info: 4 rounds, rest between exercises and after SVJ

so in all, 260 relaxed MR tuck jumps lol.. felt SO good, so explosive, so much pop.. i was actually getting some sick height on SVJ and on plenty of the tuck jumps.

- walk home: 1.3 miles

- 2.6 mile run: 18:05
-- first 1.3 miles: 8:48 = 6:46min/mile
-- next 1.3 miles: 9:17 = 7:08min/mile
-- stopped at 2.6 because im a pussy, or it was drizzling, not sure which

- bar dips: 8

- deep squat: 185 @ 4 x 1 (ez)

- chinups: 10

- S1: glute bridges @ 4 x 30-40
- S1: calf raise @ 4 x 20



done :D

that relaxed tuck jump complex/workout was freaking AMAZING.. it gave me more pop in my svj's thats for sure.. i need to do stuff like this more often, one thing i've lacked recently is "bounce training" ie reactive work.. i might actually jump tomorrow, not sure.. if i feel good i probably will, which changes my schedule above but rain does that :)

peace
