MORNING

WEIGHT: ???
SORENESS: glutes a little (?)
ACHES/INJURIES: low back a little tight, as it has been off and on for a couple of weeks -- even during pistols, which is new
MENTAL STATE: a little sleepy but good

- warm up

- skater jumps x 20,20

- one-step RVJ x 5
startlingly good, hit 33 on first jump

- DLRVJ x ~15
also good but not great. hit one really hard with the dodgeball, felt like i actually cocked back a little. missed a bunch of others. dropoff was swift and severe, though.

- bound-bound-jump x 3,3,3
barely 30

- depth jump @14" x 3
not even 30

EVENING

WEIGHT: ???
SORENESS: none
ACHES/INJURIES: right toe, low back a little tight
MENTAL STATE: good

- warm up

- DLRVJ x 8
good not great, didn't get one as high as my peak this morning. form felt weird, not getting low enough.

- paused speed squat 290 x 5,5
first set was exceptionally smooth and powerful

- DL 325 x 1,1
low back was not having it, form off

ran out of time. going to awesome concert.

MORNING

WEIGHT: ???
SORENESS: none
ACHES/INJURIES: none
MENTAL STATE: kind of slow but good

- warm up

- skater jump x 20

- one-step RVJ x 5,5

- two-step RVJ x a bunch
just working on getting low and getting my feet out in front in the plant so that my knees don't travel forward. not very good height.

EVENING

foam roll but otherwise fuck-all. was so exhausted. long day at work although it was partly my fault because i forgot about a deadline until like 5 PM and then i had to scramble to get this report out.

lol not likely. but never say never.

- daily routine

in your videos and i have seen other dunkers either wipe the bottom of their shoes or apply something to the bottom of the shoes, is it dust so to make it grip more to the floor type used on courts.

the opposite of dust. i wipe sweat on the bottoms of my shoes to make them stick. can't tell you how dusty that floor is.

Maybe we should analyse how he ended up with this PR day... what preceded this? What happened in the last week or so, how did everything unfold?

My mind can't analyse jack shit right now as I'm headed towards even deeper depression, so can anybody summarize?

it's a good question. the only correlation i can suggest is that there seems to be a positive relationship between squatting heavy and then having 3-4 days of no weights and minimal intense work. most of the times i've PR'd jumps it's been on weekends after i missed a squat workout later in the week for some reason or other, usually not on purpose. i've also jumped best around late morning or midday. yesterday's milestone was achieved after breakfast but some of the other best jumping days have been fasted.

here are some vids from saturday. can't wait to get one up of an actual dunk.

i also squatted 365 today, which is an all-time PR, but, like, who gives a shit?

3972
intermittent fasting.

3973
FUCK YEA!!!!!! PLEAAAASSSEEEEE tell us you have video!!!!

sadly, no. i wasn't even expecting to jump today, so i didn't bring my phone.  >:( but given how high i got up -- 5 PR jumps, including the dunk -- i think it's only a matter of time.

SORENESS: none
ACHES/INJURIES: none
MENTAL STATE: amazing

- warm up

- DLRVJ x 20+
asked random dude shooting around on the other end to throw me a couple lobs. was really close on the first, on the second i pushed that motherfucking ball through the motherfucking hoop. missed a couple of others, including one that i front-ironed and ended up on my ass but was sooo close. hit clean 37s on at least 3-4 other jumps.

 :personal-record: :personal-record: :personal-record: :personal-record: :personal-record: :personal-record: :personal-record:

- squat 345 x 1; 355 x 1; 365 x 1
the last was an all-time PR, as well. 2.1xbw

was planning to just do a normal weight workout but the court was open, i was feeling awesome, and so i adjusted my plans. i'm grinning like an idiot and kind of feel like i want to cry. skipped rest of weight workout because i have to go to easter lunch with my grandma. who cares.

thank you andrew. thank you. thank you t0ddday for the recent help, i haven't followed it exactly but god damn if the half-assed way i have followed it didn't work. thanks vag, raptor, flander, acole, kelly and lance in absentia, avishek in absentia, and everyone else on here for being an awesome community and helping me stay on the grind.

i promised, years ago when andrew first added them to the forum, never to use the  :personal-record: image until i dunked a basketball.

today, i dunked a basketball.
