WEIGHT: ???
SORENESS: none
ACHES/INJURIES: none, whoa
MENTAL STATE: good
- warm up
got 32 on double under "test" set, just to beat 31. might start doing sets of 20 of these. also, worked back up to running criss-crosses.
- DB jump squat 25s x 5,5
first set flying, second set slow and much more muscly
- bench 205 x 5,5,3
something weird about my set up today, was distracted or something and somehow everything ended up feeling unstable and leaky. should have the last set easily next time.
- BB row 135 x 8,8,8
strict form, no english
- superset x 2
-- DB curl 25s x 10
-- tricep press down 90 x 10; 110 x 10
- stretch

yeah that's a good point. felt very unconscious. i wonder if part of it was having spectators that i was interacting with, too. i usually jump better alone, but that's not true if i've been talking with the other people who are there. hm.

yeah i dunno. i always seem to jump better after an extra day of rest, for one thing.
i keep revisiting the double-hand rim grab, it was so unexpected. i almost never go up with two hands but i did unconsciously on that jump and grabbed easily with both hands. such a great feeling.

« on: October 06, 2014, 09:37:52 am »guy dupuy at ~0:42 is amazing. actually all of guy dupuy's dunks are amazing. then as the title says, lipek shuts it down.
i think justin darlington is my dunking spirit animal. he does the same kind of hop plant that i can't seem to get away from, but he elevates like crazy.

You have gone a long way, well deserved and absolutely gained too...
thanks vag and chris (and the other people who upvoted that post)! and yeah, hit near base of palm on one jump without the ball and had a couple of very good dodgeball dunks. base of palm is 37.

friends don't let friends skip leg day.
sounds like to need to rest completely for a little while, but you can train legs without relying too much on your calves. BSS, leg press if you're careful about where you put your feet, good mornings to some extent, leg curls and extensions, the list goes on.

the over-the-dunkcar* windmill is violent as shit. 
*thanks raptor, although over-the-dunk would be unreal: have a guy do an ordinary dunk and then another dude fly over him and dunk immediately over/on top of the first guy.

WEIGHT: ???
SORENESS: none
ACHES/INJURIES: left shoulder, low back but very minor on both
MENTAL STATE: great
- warm up
- jumps x ~15
near-PR levels, easy double hand rim grab on first four-step jump of the day, which is unheard of. easy dunks with the dodgeball. comfortably 36 on a couple. drop-off pretty steep as more volleyball players started showing up and taking over the court. not mad.
- squat 225 x 5; 235 x 5,5
low back/SI joint tightness there during warm up but it went away or at least stayed very quiet. no stiffness or discomfort now.
- bench 200 x 5,5,5
strong
- kroc row 80 x 23L, 23R
- assisted natural GHR x 8,8,8
- inverted row x 10,10,10
- rudiment hops
- MR half tuck x 15,15
- stretch
awesome workout, best in a long time.
