Progress Journals & Experimental Routines / Re: a fast and explosive donkey!
« on: March 28, 2014, 03:13:24 pm »
WEIGHT: ???
SORENESS: none
ACHES/INJURIES: low back a little tight but not painful
MENTAL STATE: good
- warm up
- jumps x ~30
started off really strong, finally got to practice a few lobs with avishek but i just didn't have the height, plus it was the first time every doing them so timing and rhythm were messy. wasn't at my all-time best height either. he gave me some helpful feedback on my SLRVJ, too. he definitely had the height on a couple jumps but the timing/placement wasn't there. oh well, was good to finally try some lobs, even if i don't feel like i was all that close to getting one.

worked out with avishek tonight.
WEIGHT: ???
SORENESS: none
ACHES/INJURIES: low back a little tight but not painful
MENTAL STATE: good
- warm up
- superset x 3
-- DB OHP 50s x 6
-- pull up x 6
- decline situps +18 x 10; +35 x 10 (last 3 bar in front of neck on the concentric)
- various jumps x 25-30
grabbed some food and now gonna stretch and SMR while watching ncaas. it was nice to work out with avishek but i'd been hoping to do rim jumps. legs and CNS felt primed for it. but the court was in full use so it wasn't to be. we did a bunch of short-approach jumps off one and two instead on a squash court. gonna try to jump on the basketball court tomorrow around noon.

Basketball / Re: A WHOLE BUNCH OF DUNKS AND SHIT.
« on: March 27, 2014, 05:52:13 pm »
the french announcers for that dunk are absolutely great. i can't understand a word of it but it reminds me a little of that crazy argentine announcer calling the goal of the century, where at the end he's crying and apologizing to the viewers for his tears.

« on: March 25, 2014, 03:34:56 pm »KDs and CP3s are supposed to be built for more horizontal responsiveness, meaning they favor speed and cuts over vert.
what does that even mean?

even those (venomenons) are 2/3 heavier than my racing flats. i think about picking up some bball shoes sometimes (low tops, of course) just to see what the difference is like when i'm doing stuff with more lateral movement, but for jumping i dunno. 5 ounces seems like a big difference.
