Hi dumbass, it's called outbox.

That should be "Hi, dumbass, it's called outbox." by the way.

PMs do not automatically appear in one's outbox.

i need to make it default somehow.. it's on the agenda :D

bw = 158
soreness = calfs
aches/injuries = calfs, low back, left achilles slightly, left ham tendon a little

workout:
- nice warmup
- 10-20's x 4
- 200 x 1
- 20's x 3
- 200 x 1
- 20's x 3
- 200 x 1
- 20's x ~5
- bw walking lunges: 2 x 50tot <- dead
- neutral grip pullups: 12
- bar dips: 8
- ghr: 8 x 3 (very good tonight, strong half reps)
- pushups: 30
- double leg hamstring iso: dno how long, until failure


20's felt VERY fast.. 200's were garbage, strength endurance was garbage tonight..

had something interesting happen, on one of my 20's, i took a few quick decel steps then pogo'd off my right leg very high onto the sidewalk.. so basically i went to jump onto the sidewalk but i was going very fast into my plant and handled it well.. i did this right leg about 3 times (after 3 20's).. the one left leg attempt i did was a failure but i think it's because of how i was trying to jump angled 'left' to my left..... anyway, i have to remember to finish sessions with single leg jumps, because when my double leg is dead, i still have pop doing SLRVJ's so.. i need to get those in more often, and i need to practice pogo'n with as much speed as i had tonight.

i'm going out tmw night so i have to try and wakeup a little earlier to get some dunks done.. hope it isn't raining.. if i get to dunk, i plan on trying a bunch of dribble up dunks and single leg self alley's maybe.. going to mix it up a bit and work on some other things....................... chance of rain 50% on the forecast.. not good !!!! ehehe

peace

say adarq, what would the next phase of the training be like?
and how many sessions a week?

we're at week 5 now, so that means in the best situation, 3 more weeks right?
would it be of detriment if we cut it by a week or 2?
i mean, yea obviously like 8 workouts worth training less, but what other things?

well i was planning on 8, we'll see, i mean if you really want too then of course we'll do that.. why you want to cut it by a week or two? just wondering?

i have alot of this stuff on my ipod, don't even know what to label it either.. house, techno, dance.. no idea. hehe

good stuff though

if i knew the names of the songs i like i'd drop them in here but i have no idea.. they are all 'blah mix'

Same story for my buddy he has a bunch of awesome tunes on his ipod but it's not organized, I don't know how he finds anything on there lol

ya i just play all my tracks randomly.. ever time.. hehe!

Damn , that's an insane jump!!!
That's 13'' above easily !
35 and 36 my ass , that's 37'' for sure!!!

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Same here, easy 37''
That rim looks pretty legit so the backboard base is supposed to be at 9'2'' , so you need 3' to barely touch the bottom of it so...

Awesome jumps , huge non lifting achievements , congrats!!!


hm... i'm starting to see it a bit differently now.. so far i've gotten like 4 comments thinking it's 37".. i don't think i was fully outstretched either to be honest.. i was reaching today but not fully stretching, but i don't usually fully stretch unless im lobbing.

i go through almost bipolar-ish phases where all of my jumps look like shit.. i'm in one of those right now.. but what's interesting is, it makes me want to get up way higher.. like im in a period of being very "unsatisfied".. but that's fueling me to get down to 150 while pushing my squat up, so it's good stuff.

thanks for the kind words vag and the proper analysis ! hehe

3" above the "crease in my arm" (hinge, elbow) is 40".. so looking at that pic definitely has it looking pretty high.. i used to think it was 2" from crease but after looking at the pic again its 3":
- http://i390.photobucket.com/albums/oo345/adarqui/measure-3.jpg



ok ok cool! i'll be satisfied with head on rim.. not really too far away if i really think about it.. must get it done.. i want to bang my head on the rim so hard that streams of blood fly out of the laceration, in HD.

peace man



edit: and ya, rim definitely seems legit.. i mean, today i only hit about 10'5 off RL DLRVJ, and i never get more than like 10'-10'1 SVJ on that rim.. so i mean i'd imagine i would be PR'n vert/RL DLRVJ etc on it.. i hate measuring rims it's a pain in the ass, that's why i just use a ton of rims and reproduce results on all of them.

anyone have one? if so what kind? and is it good to jump with etc? i want a nice, snug vest, that doesn't flop around on jumps and even sprints, lunges, pullups, ghr's, walking..

anyone know if this one is good? ZFO weighted vest: http://www.amazon.com/ZFO-60LBS-Adjustable-Weighted-WEIGHTS-INCLUDED-One/dp/B002P5ZA8K

Emerald Isle, NC.

Since I'm online anyway, here's what I did yesterday and today (in addition to walking on the beach and swimming in the ocean):

Sunday 8/22 -- biked x6 miles, played tennis x45 minutes, low intensity

Monday 8/23 -- played tennis x60 minutes, low intensity, played kadima x20 minutes, very low intensity.

Forgot my !(*#&$(*& jump rope at home. Oops.

Also, adarq,  :highfive: for the new emoticons.

jump rope without a rope like alex maroko, just mimic the movement.. lolsjk.

nice man, i like the workouts.. having fun & getting back in shape :D

np about the emoticons :)

peace

Good news though, I talked to my coach in the gym and I'll probably be able to get a set of hurdles, which means I'll be training sprints and hurdle form on my off days. Nothing too heavy yet though, I'll experiment with some routines. Suggestions and positive criticism are always welcome of course, as usual.


very nice.. i'm all for that, must maintain proficiency.. just ease back into it over 2 weeks.

warmup + hurdle mobility + tempo hurdle sprints to start?

peace
