Basketball / Re: A WHOLE BUNCH OF DUNKS AND SHIT.
« on: October 30, 2012, 03:29:34 pm »First they came for the communists,
and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a communist.
Then they came for the socialists,
and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a socialist.
Then they came for the trade unionists,
and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a trade unionist.
Then they started a really fucking stupid argument on the internet,
and I didn't speak out because why bother?
Then the argument took over what was once a good thread,
and I got pissed and said "shut up."

THIS IS THE DUMBEST ARGUMENT IN THE HISTORY OF ADARQ.ORG.
hyperdunk, you're right, russell westbrook has crazy hops! vag, you're right, gerald green has crazy hops...even though he's tall! everyone, you're right, listed heights for basketball players are often inaccurate! stop the fucking presses!
now all of you shut up and get back to posting videos of people jumping higher than any of us can.

Nutrition & Supplementation / Re: protein powder

super-grade WPC from truenutrition is $7.39/lb, so 10 lbs plus shipping is $88.33. 24g protein, 2.5g fat.
i don't know why i'm defending them to you, if you can find a better deal somewhere else for a product you like, bully for you.

no work today so went before lunch, but workout cut off by FRANKENSTORM. 
WEIGHT: ???
SORENESS: none
ACHES/INJURIES: elbows during squatting again, but not as bad, but still weird
FATIGUE: low
- warm up
- depth jump 2 x 5
- ME MR half tuck 3 x 5
- ME pogo 1 x 5
- squat 310 x 3,3,3
easy-peasy
- that's it
this storm is getting crazier but still not at WTF levels. we'll see what happens. fingers crossed and wood knocked against the power going out. come on, neighborhood trees. hold your shit together.

if you look in the mirror and like what you see given your circumstances (trying to bulk/cut, what stage you are in that process), you've passed the mirror test.

nice job on the 30's.
also, gaining weight = gaining some fat. if the mirror test is still okay and you can still fit in your pants then don't worry about it. you haven't gained THAT much weight, anyway.

it's actually still not raining that hard where i am, but people are fucked all up and down the east coast. i'm beginning to wonder if i should have prepared better. might go out and grab some bottled water and mac and cheese while i still can. and fill the bathtub with water.

« on: October 28, 2012, 08:00:54 pm »LBSS, how do you like the squats being alternated with the jump squats? I have never tried them together that way and was wondering how your experience is with them so far.
meh, i'm kind of ambivalent about them. haven't done them long enough yet to see about any kind of adaptations from them. it occurred to me that i should mix in unloaded standing jumps but this is the way adarq wrote it up, so i'm going to stick with it for a while.
WEIGHT: ???
SORENESS: none
ACHES/INJURIES: toes a little
FATIGUE: low
- warm up
- depth jump x 5,5 @ 18"
the church had used the court for something and the hoops were still up. que se a vaya a la chucha nuestra senora de las americas.
- DL bound 5 x 5
just about half court each time, which is pretty terrible. unsure why.
- ME MR half tuck 5 x 5
- ME pogo 3 x 5
- walk home
- stretch

were they running double-leg jumps? when i first started practicing them a lot i got asymmetrical soreness/aches because i always plant LR. left hip ended up feeling wonky. but it went away with time and i do enough bilateral stuff that i'm not worried about it.

yesterday (friday):
WEIGHT: 175.5
SORENESS: none
ACHES/INJURIES: elbows and triceps, during squatting
FATIGUE: low
- warm up
- DLRVJ 5 x 2
bad
- ME MR half tuck 5 x 5
- ME pogo 3 x 5
second and third sets better
- C1: MSEM squat 8 x 285
- C1: jump squat 2 x 3 x 100
- C1 info: 2 rounds
- S1: dip x 20,15,15
- S1: inverted row x 20,15,15
- S1 info: ~30s between rounds
- S2: ab pull down x 30
- S2: reverse hyper x 10
- S2 info: 2 rounds, minimal rest
- stretch
dunno what's wrong with my elbows on the squat. this started to bother me earlier in the week but i forgot to note it. something off about the form, maybe. could just be a passing thing.
also, i'm thinking about buying a barbell and some weights from the gym. don't have anywhere to put them for the time being but there's a chance i could get a fantastic deal. and i can just throw the stuff in my parents' basement for the time being.
