Vertical jump testing.
Weight at session : ~185
Jumping on concrete , 10' rim.
Was awfully hot again today , at 10pm that i came back home the local meteo station says temperature : 90'F / feels like :100'F
The burning concrete made it even worse , car's thermometer showed 95'F at court...

10' dynamic warmup , 2x10 sec DL line hops , bunch of low-mid effort jumps.

1x4 SVJs : 26'' to 27'' , one jump at 27,5''
1x4 dropstep DLRVJs : 30'' to 31''
1x4 1-step DLRVJs : 31'' to 32''
1x4 2-step DLRVJs : 32'' to 32,5'' , one jump at 33''
2x3 full runup DLRVJs : 30'' to 31'' , WTF?

Im guessing this dropoff was because of the heat. After seeing i cant get higher at full runup jumps i retried a few 1/2-step jumps , those were 30'' to 31'' too so i stopped.
Not bad at all , of course i didn't feel as powerful and explosive as 20 days ago but all jumps were much more fluid and high than what i expected.

lately iv been waking up and not remembering any dreams. (as usual)         strangely, parts of dreams comeback to me in flashes in random parts of the day. for example, i was walking when i remembered a part of my dream in which i was eating an apple. but the pieces of the dream that flash back to me are not related.


today, i did remember my dream. it was in a world where gov security/crimefighting was so strong. i kept witnessing people getting caught in random stores. then, it flashed to where i was the one being chased by gov. i was hiding in this really good spot in someone's  garden. completely hidden in the front and sides by plants, and behind me there was a wooden fence that enclosed me in a half circle. somehow, the government found me but i did not see them. they were on the other side of the wall. they told me to get out but i figured it was impossible to see me. ( which it was)    then, they somehow made the fence behind me go into thin air, and shot me in the head. i was dead.

Do not look up when you squat. Keep your head facing directly forwards or a little bit down. You should, however, be driving you head back into the bar.

How do waffle racers mess with your depth?
