^ first time i started measuring my vert, i'm at 28-30 RVJ max without any jump specific training.. just playing ball.
the how long  part depends on how long it would take an individual to build stronger legs.

* im ready for heavy squats and partials again. lower back is healthy. first day after almost a week of no heavy lifting. legs are strong. form is not very solid. i was able to pause rep 385x1 though. it will be a lot better tomorrow. will probably warmup max to 440x1 and do 365 partials. tuesday is jump squats.

[135x8][185x6][225,275x4]

#4 Jump Squats
- non-rhythmic, hold the landing form for a sec and stabilize ~ 1/2 depth
55 10x1
95 8x1
135 6x1, 8x2
185 4x2

Jumps
- SVJ x4

Sprints
- 10/15 yards x8

* lowerback getting better but not yet time to load heavy. i noticed on the 275 warmup set that i was pushing from the front part of the feet alot more.. bodys compensating for a weak pchain. did not even do 325.

^
im already very skinny when i get to 190-192ish. prefer to be at least 192-194. squat weight will come. i really feel that i have enough legs but not enough core to hold the weight in place. upperbody bends on near max singles.

* looks like a repeat of sundays workout. will skip tmrw and give back more time. it is still not 100%, but not really that weak. i was still able to jumpsquat 225s. the walkout/setup for the 365x1 paused rep was not very solid. did not go heavier.

[135x8][185x6][225,275x4][325x2][365,385x1]

* lower back got stiff after the 135 warmup set. still unrecovered from the heavy 455x1. did not do the planned partials for today. i tried to walk out with the 405x1 but unracking / setup feels weak already. did not even bother bending knees. a failure for sure.
* did 2 sets of bent back goodmorning with just bar to get blood flowing good on lowerback. kept the weight in the upper 2/3 of feet to get the lowerback doing all the work. minimized hamstring pull. felt good. i should be a lot stronger tomorrow if my lowerback recovers well.

#9 Heavy Partial Squats + Mini Bands
- 365 4x2

* the 455x1 was quick on the rebound and on the way up. legs were pushing strong. upperback got beat. was not able to maintain upright form. legs probably good for another 10-15lb max but no way it would work if the upperback is not up for it.
* the 365x4 + minibands were quick with consistent depth. will skip another day and lift on saturday.

ya sounds like he's ready to massively change it up though & do some weird shit.

keep improving your partials kingfish, get diesel on em`... oh and jump/sprint.

i will aim to get quick partials on 405, but before i add more to 405, il make sure i can full squat it at least x5. its full squat ramping to 455 i guess.

#1 Jump Squats
- non-rhythmic, hold the landing form for a sec and stabilize ~ 1/2 depth
55 10x2
95 8x2
135 6x2
185 4x2
225 2x2 4x1

Jumps
- SVJ x6

* i was only planning to go up to 135 but it felt so light, did 185 and same thing.. its not cutting it. still got a decent jump using the 225s. did not do too many and burn myself.
* im focusing on maintaining depth and quick transitions.. a carryover from the partial squats and my form and depth was good even for a first workout.
* added a pause after the landing to really feel the stretch on the muscles on the force absorption. feels like my legs what to recoil back the more i pause it.
* will do more jump squats tomorrow if the bar feels heavy for a full squat + partial workout. more partial 365 x4-6 if i feel strong.

^ i was expecting improvements in my SVJ using partials by training my RFD at the jumping angle.. im just surprised that for some reason, the full squat got better too.. i dont think it will apply to everybody, specially those who haven't done a lot of full squats to begin with.

now that i have the partial depth pretty much covered, il add it some volume of barbel jump squats as deloads.

- 365 2x1

- 405 2x1

Jumps
- RVJ x8

* 325 getting faster and faster. upperback now 100% recovered. not busting it again. almost 4 weeks of aching.
* RVJ felt really good. not yet very fast on the approach but at least im not slowing down anymore noticeably. first jump was almost palms to rim..
* im still trying to make sure i dont burn myself out with the volume of speed partial squats. i could have easily made 8x4sets but that might make me fatigued for the rest of the week. im already accumulating fatigue more than usual. 405x3 would have been all out right now. i was just happy to get a paused 405x1 today. by the way i was liftting the 275 and 325.. i thought 365 would have been the heaviest for today. then my legs woke up a little more.
* tmrw is more RVJ/SVJs will vid the RVJ is the gym is not packed. wed is another speed partials. my hamstrings are more sore than usual, probably due to the RVJs and sprint warmups.

Jumps
Warmups
- 10/15yr sprints x4
- Lateral Bench Jumps 10x1
RVJ
- Double hand rim grabs 6x8
SVJ x4
- Top of foam

* RVJ was surprisingly good. was able to absorb the last 2-3 steps before the jump nicely. barely slowed down prior to jump. i even accelerated prior to the jump when i got the form going. got better jumps when i start a little slower and build up momentum rather than an all out explosion then some braking prior to jump to get timing right... so now will really focus on a build up of momentum and make sure the last 3 steps involve no deceleration.
* the RVJs were not an all out effort. just high reps to learn proper form. i was getting palms to rim towards the latter sets. ~ 38RVJ max for the day.
* SVJ was still impressive.. not getting lower anymore. tmw is some light RVJ drills again as warmup and another heavy partial squat.. 325x4,385x2..
