Variant 2 from Verkoshansky is pretty interesting since it involves regular PR testing and allows to monitor strength increases pretty well for an intermediate lifter. However what puzzles me is that you are supposed to do 2-3 reps at 100%1rm, albeit with ~15s-60s rest in between. I would still think that this would kill me and I suppose that I would fail the second rep. Do I misinterpret the recommendations? Is 100% meant as 100% of a 2rm or 3rm?

Yea, those are Verkhoshansky's EXACT recommendations, of which I have come to my own conclusion. I feel the 100% 1RM lifts in variant 2 are "100% non-psyche up", which would be less than a psyched up pure maximum attempt. Also, I feel that people who utilize this technique adapt in a way in which 100% non-psyche up singles can be attempted with short rest: the body learns another single is coming, the tonic effect of the first single carries over to the second etc. With Variant 2, I would imagine only 2 reps or so could really be performed at 100%. During the second set, that tonic effect (stim) usually carries over quite well and you do feel a bit stronger, which can explain the 105% 1RM guidelines etc..

I definitely would use Variant 1 most often, or variations of variant 1.

Some of my own variations of variant 1 include a much higher volume and slightly lower intensity of singles than is prescribed. Rip is about to start utilizing that during his maintenance phase in June.

I hope that helps, I'd have to ask the man himself for his exact reasoning on his great forum. I have been meaning to post on his forum about my experience with MSEM like I did with my post about shock way back. MSEM hardly receives any attention, even by himself in his online documents, which is funny because I think it is the most powerful method I have utilized. His shock method is extremely effective but VERY intense, so it's not something you can easily recommend over the internet, MSEM however, easily prescribed. It seems everyone who starts utilizing MSEM protocols gets great results from it very quickly, I'm glad more people are experimenting with it, one thing I've noticed is that everyone who has experimented with it has kept it in their programming to some extent, so it definitely is showing results.

peace man

Hi! I'm Miles and thanks for having me. I'm here to back my work ethic up with some solid understanding as I'm coming close to a year of vertical jump training.

"Sometimes you have to play a long time to be able to play like yourself."

"work ethic" is an important phrase.. regardless of how smart we train, the dedication, consistency, and willingness to push past our limits is key.

welcome !

damn pudza was all starry eyed b4 the fight even started, looked dehydrated or something.  he took over the first minute but after was burnt out


i guess all that type 2 muscle, no big mitochondria etc that you would associate with someone more conditioned?

pudza still competed, and it looked like he had no fighting skills at all, so what could be if he actually got better at the ground game, punching, etc

well alistair overeem is enormous, and he's in great condition... he's relaxed when he fights, extremely conditioned, etc.. lots of big guys at heavyweight in mma.. i think pudz's lack of conditioning has more to do with his lack of conditioning.. he could of course lose some of that mass, but he just seems to be in poor cardiovascular shape, producing insane amonts of lactic acid, etc.. he's just not relaxed either, thats a key.. if he was relaxed with the same conditioning, he'd look way more in shape.. he's too tight.

ya he did compete for a little bit.. but he showed serious lack of "everything" hehe.

peace

hey darq are these them?

http://cgi.ebay.com/MENS-NIKE-AIR-SOLO-FLIGHT-1-FOAMPOSITE-INSP-SHOE-SZ-13-/180509024204?cmd=ViewItem&pt=US_Men_s_Shoes&hash=item2a072d1fcc

ya! i got em in blue/grey/white.

I was lookin on ebay for nike air solo flights, i will probably buy a pair, its about time for a new pair of ballin shoes.........they about 50us for size 13.

nice.. they are one of the best shoes ive jumped in, i really prefer them.. ive never jumped in kobe's though.

for $50US thats pretty cheap, thanks for the info, i have two pairs left that have in tact soles.. i have to be careful because if i dribble like i normally do in them, on pavement, it would tear a hole in them quick, something about the way i move my feet... so im sticking to jumpers/jumps, but when i do need a new pair $50 aint bad.

i have 5 pairs right now haha, only two are usable.

cya
