Well it is, but there's no upperbody work. Remember, volume is going to be extremely low with the squats and deadlifts, just two sets stopping way before failure.

Well yeah that shifts things a bit more towards the muscle side of jumping and away from the tendon side of jumping BUT STILL - to be able to stabilize, jump, land, stabilize, jump etc is amazing.

I swear I thought you were going to jump after the first step you took... it really looked like a drop into a jump your first left leg step you did haha.

What's going on with your SI? What did you feel?

Sucks but in a way, might be a blessing in disguise. If your a bit overtrained or fatigued, taking a little break from all this you might rebound with a :personal-record: really soon.

Strength, Power, Reactivity, & Speed Discussion / Lance's method every day
« on: June 27, 2011, 10:08:39 am »
I was wondering if I use Lance's method every day... stopping when the rep I'm doing is significantly lower than the previous one, if it's too much or if it's OK.

I plan on using two sets and do this every day (morning):

Low volumes of snatch/clean (3x3)

Lance method, 2 sets with 45s rest in between them:

Squat + Overhead Press + Chinups (Monday - Wednesday - Friday)
Deadlift + Bench press + Pullups (Tuesday and Thursday)

Core work/stretch

It should not be too long of a workout and not too draining since I stop as soon as I rep slower/more difficult. Rep range will be 5-8.

I plan to do this in conjunction with Joel Smith's program, with Joel's Program happening in the evening.

Hm, makes sense. Basically as the serotonin is let a bit more in between the neurons to actually help in creating synapses, I think the "normal" way of the nervous system is easily obtained/maintained (basically the main idea with SSRIs).

I'm currently taking Trittico, Neurotop (carbamazepine, this is usually prescribed for epilepsy but I don't have such a thing so WTF?) and a sleep helper (Imovane).

I think it depends on how you attach it.

I attach it from behind the heel towards the middle of the foot. You can also attach it from your toes inside your foot.

Would you say anti-stress or "psycho" meds (like SSRIs) would help or negate my gains?
