unless i'm much mistaken, leg raises to parallel is right. it's not toes to bar.

WEIGHT: ???
SORENESS: none
ACHES/INJURIES: everything off still
MENTAL STATE: blah
- warm up
- skater jump x 20
- one-step RVJ x 5
- DLRVJ x 6-8
one or two okay, mostly terrible. knees felt bad.
- bound-bound-jump x 3,3
hit 32 on first rep of each set. but still felt shitty
- one-step RVJ x 3
hit 34 once and then couldn't get it together.
went upstairs and stood in front of the bar for a while trying to will myself to squat. could not. everything feels bad right now. i wonder if it's just the sudden change in schedule throwing everything off. that would make sense. anyway i'm about to go on vacation for a week and a half so i'll rest -- will try to do plenty of stretching and some daily routine stuff but i'm not gonna kill myself over it -- and then attack again when i get back. still unsure when i'll be leaving for good, or whether i'll go to geneva at the end of the month.

does romanian have separate words for "in" and "on"? or is it like spanish, which has one word for "in," "on," and "at"?

yeah, english prepositions are HARD. if there are rules about which to use when, i don't know them. no logical reason i can think of for something to be "on" a day, versus "at" or "in." well, except that "in a day" means "one day after the anchoring day." as in, "if you order it next monday, it'll be there in a day."

@FP: i wouldn't recommend that technique to improve jumping in a crowd or off a run. it greases a very specific groove: look at the RL plant i posted last week and compare to my normal LR and you can see the difference that it makes.
no idea whether you could get higher off a backpedal than off SVJ. but i have no doubt at all that if you practiced backpedal-jumping you'd get better at it pretty quickly.

re: grip assistance on lobs. i have very limited experience, obviously. but judging on the weekend before last, when i did 20+ attempts and back-ironed or pushed the ball past the rim on a bunch of them, having the ball stick to my hand a little better might have enabled me to control the ball enough to push it down.

they're DL bounds. 3x3 is actually 27 "jumps", because one rep is bound-bound-VJ. they're fairly intense, doing more than that seems to bother my knee so i don't. hard to say what of the newer stuff i've been doing (i.e. since end of december) has made the difference but i'm trying to be the anti-maxent here and just do what i'm told. everything together has pushed me to levels i'd never reached before so...[shrug emoji].
the DB jump squats are submax, continuous, and maybe about quarter depth. i used to do bigger amplitude and fucked up my back, so i am cautious. i focus on triple extension on each jump.
