3/12/13 Tuesday BW=163.0

jump squat 5x45, 5x95.
squat 5x185, 3x225, 1x265, 1x295, 1x310, 5x115(js), 6x310, 7x295, 7x295

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.

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.....

3/8/13 Friday BW=162.8

jumps ~ 40
jump squat 5x45, 5x95.
squat 5x185, 3x225, 1x265, 1x285, 1x295, 5x115(js), 3x5x295
GHR BW 3x8
calf raise 230# 3x10
ab wheel 3x10
heavy bag 3x2.0 min.

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.

 not a strict pause as i am still afraid of the form breakdown if i lean forward a bit. was able to a single 455 from a pause and i was lucky i didn't lean forward too much. erector chain would have been fried or broken.


for some reason hearing of you mortality, makes me want to hit the iron a little harder and make it to your level.

I guess after training hard for the last 12 months or so, this is the first week off i've had. and my knees are happy everything feels good and rested. It might even do me good. I hope I dont get too fat though from being inactive.

IMO this is the hardest part about dieting/maintaining leanness.  Like I have been stressing, with proper tempo work and high-workout capacity you can become/maintain very lean without restricting calories much.

Additionally, it's not that hard to eat clean when you running quick times on the track, throwing up big weights, and looking great.  If you run a couple season PR's in the morning and then get in the weight room and kill some squats that afternoon, when you go out with your girl that night it only makes sense to say "I'll take the grilled Salmon".   Poor quality food doesn't even seem right for the well oiled machine you are.

The problem is when the activity falls off.  Those little injuries/or life/work events where you don't/can't train for a week.  You forget that you are the pinnacle of fitness and ice-cream doesn't sound horrible anymore.  Without the positive feedback of training and improving/maintaining excellent body composition it becomes easier and easier to fall off the wagon...   Then a two week injury gets accompanied by a few lbs of fat gain which causes some more injuries and your season goes...

Don't let this happen!  The hardest thing is when your inactive you actually should eat CLEANER than when you are training heavily.  If you can master this you will be healthy for the rest of your life.   There will be times we can't train whether life or injury, and as you get older dealing with these times correctly is probably more important than your actual training.

Preach it brother! This is the practical wisdom I need more of day to day.  :highfive:

Glad to hear your brothers OK.

preface...... I know almost nothing about addiction (except what I have seen on intervention)

Hopefully an awful experience like that can be the trigger to began to fight his disease. (rock bottom)

I wish your family all the best.
