4/8/13 Monday BW=160.8
jump squat 5x45, 5x95
squat 5x185, 3x225, 1x255, 1x270, 5x115(js), 4x260, 7x240, 7x240
GHR BW 3x10
ab wheel rollouts 3x15
powertec squat machine 180# 3x8
calf raise 180# 3x12
squat depth takes a bit to readjust back down. finally locked in and ready to rebuild.
My weigh is coming down as I clean up my diet. I am thinking about cutting to 155, athletic anorexia style.

Could not get last weeks squat video off the near broken cell phone, so screw that.
I have figured out that getting 1 workout per week is going to get me no where. weights were super heavy and awkward tonight.
Felt great through warm up sets and then just bonked.
low on time and focus lately. How I wish I was 19 again......

did a cell phone video of squats tonight and even tapping the fourth pin I am not breaking parallel.
So I dropped the weight and went down to the 3rd pin, which is 27.5"s. after watching the video of that It doesn't seem deep enough WTF? I must have the shortest legs ever for my height. What is a super long torso good for?
I will try to get some vids up tomorrow.

« on: March 24, 2013, 01:57:54 am »greater depth probably helping force you keep your legs externally rotated, too, which will help you move more weight, safer, in the long term.
another good point. Thanks for the input.

wasted tonight, off my workout schedule, timing and everything sucks.
squats back to full, tapping pin 4 is so much harder then the depth I have been hitting lately.

« on: March 18, 2013, 01:27:32 am »Well why don't you lower the weight and go deeper and more under control? That will benefit you much more than what you're doing now. A 5 rep ATG squat is similar to a 10 rep parallel squat in terms of TUT so... it's more than just depth.
Good point. I have dropped weight and readjusted depth.

« on: March 14, 2013, 12:03:29 pm »Late update for Tuesday....we lost by 19. They had one small school D1 guy and two D2 guys and DESTROYED us on the glass. We stayed with them until about 12 minutes left in the second half and we went cold for a few minutes and went from down 7 to down 25 just like that. We battled back hard but their dominance on the offensive glass did us in. We had 4 points on 3 offensive rebounds lol! I landed on a guys ankle with 7 minutes left and sat the rest of the game. It's tender still but the swelling went down quickly with ice so I don't think its too bad. I bought a brace today and I'll wrap it and throw the brace on and give it a go tomorrow, see what happens.
that's rough.
In my experience rolling my ankle, wrapping it and playing on it the next day has always gained me further injury.
any chance you can stay off it for a few more days?

I am shooting for parallel, not ATG.
needed more depth on that set for real. making progress is hard.

Here is the video of the 6x310. New PR. Not my best form but not sloppy either.
video quality of celebrity sex tape, but better than nothing.
So much more progress needed.

« on: March 09, 2013, 12:59:49 am »does jump squats precede depth jump training?
they can I guess.
I use them to help to fire my CNS for heavier sets. They also help speed-strength and to train the triple extension in the same way power cleans do. Here is the link to read.....

For the record I do need to cycle depth drops then depth jumps into the routine. However I have been using jumps squats year round with solid improvements.
tonight's workout.....

Did my jumps tonight as It is the first day of the year that the concrete is dry in my neck of the woods.
I am hitting just better then 30" SVJ which confirms my last attempts not to be a fluke but the new normal. I feel like superman 2 days after MSEM, which is awesome. If I had more forethought in my training it would be great to use that knowledge to my advantage.

In the last 6 months I have definitely broken through to the next stage.
