Tennis / Re: hitting a tennis ball
« on: March 15, 2010, 03:00:45 am »I read some study a while ago that said the guys on the tour who hit the ball the hardest had the best timing and weren't the strongest. I will try to find it again.
ya well leverages/technique/timing come into play for sure, and make up the majority of how hard you will hit a tennis ball. But, general strength can't be overlooked though, making improvements in strength will either transfer into the shots, allow you to sustain "peak performance" longer, allow you to recover faster, improve injury prevention, or any combination of these factors.
so if you get any of those improvements, it should allow you to improve velocity/ability somewhat.
peace, would like to see the study though, I'm going to drop a tennis peer review thing so I'd stick it in there.

Body measurements
Comparison with last measurements in January , when i was also ~1 month away from weight training:
Weight ( in the morning ) : ~183 , ( -3lbs )
Waist ( navel level , loose) : ~35'' , ( -0,2'' )
Thighs ( about 3/4 from knee to hip flexor , flexed) : ~24,8'' , ( -0,6'' )
Hips ( middle of butt , loose ) : ~39,7'' , ( -0,6'' )
Biceps ( flexed ) : ~15,2'' , ( -0,3'' )
Calves : 14,3'' , ( -0,45'' )
Bodyfat estimation : ~17,5% ( -0% )
My natural built is skinny without muscle.
So now , like always when im away from weights , im shrinking!
ya man, I shrink very fast too when I stop lifting.
you didn't lose too much though, so that's good.

3/13/2010
man my left ribs that i broke when i was young, they strained a bit (intercostals or something) doing dips last time.. so i was cramping alot today.
wore my new nike zoom waffles today.. liked em.
edit: glutes were so sore too from those damn SL squat variants.
light 1/4th mile "sprints" SUPERSETTED with backpedal sprints of ~20 yards:
- 1:19
- 1:33
- 1:27
- WEAK
- even tho they were light, felt it in lungs
backpedal sprint to open up sprint ~30-50 yards:
- 7x
- last one sprinted like 80 yards or so
rebounding "box jumps" on an 18" bench:
- felt weak on these
- 3 x 10
~2 mile jog on midfoot/ball of foot:
- cramping
gotta improve all that stuff.. backpedal sprint to open up sprint is so damn fun.. all out sprints felt good.

Regardless of the weight, clottey's defense/countering/boxing ability are going to frustrate pac.
I got clottey by UD 12.

That was final session chasing PRs, thats where i am currently , going back to training now.
what did you mean by "final session chasing PR's"?
pc
I meant that it felt like i cant do better currently.
All latest sessions had some kind of "excuse"
Too cold , humidity , wet court , soreness , fucked up runups , not feeling it bla bla bla.
So i kept chasing a good session, to see where my max RVJ/SVJs are.
This one was perfect, felt good , coordinated , feeling all jumps as maximal etc
So thats what i meant "final" session, entering a strength training cycle i expect my jumps to drop for a while...
ah..
