I really am seeing good results from the low amount of plos I do before every w/o. I have a bit more bounce in p/u games, + getting blocks and put backs like I am a younger man.

nice man!

yup that's why people should do reactive work before lifting.. it keeps that constant stimulus in to "be more springlike (reactive)" and it helps potentiate (stimulate) heavy/explosive lifts.. there's absolutely no reason why we shouldnt include reactive work before pretty much every lifting session (unless it's back to back days then you could make a case..)

jumps squats 95# 3x5
squats 5x185, 5x225, 2x235(#3=fail)  
box squat(around parallel) 3x8x225

Hoping to make more progress this month but after being sick I am getting my butt kicked. today was especially bad.
Tried box squating after really never doing it and it felt good. I originally learned to squat all the way down and now anything less feels weird. Not sure if I should keep going deep or start box squatting and see how it goes?

Guys got springs for sure. If he is 5'10" he is lanky as hell tho.

Played full court b-ball for 2 hours last night. fealing great. BW down to 173.8 this morning, leaning out and getting into sports shape.

nice jump at the end man..

definitely need to keep getting stronger and keep improving body comp, that'll result in more speed into that runup/more power/^ more efficient plants.. keep up the good work mang

Thanks I knew there was a trick to it.

I just need less weight while increasing strength/speed/movement efficency.  

Just one tip that might or might not be helpful for you: when you go for a 2-hander off two feet, practice ''throwing'' the ball upwards (keep a hold of it) to give you some more momentum (a wide in football gave me that tip, could even use a Med. Ball heck).

So if i were you i would put that to the test on 9' rim and then increasing heights as your pattern gets better but i think it should help you get more power after you plant, especially since it looks fine to begin with.

Thanks for the tip, I will give it a try!

Felt good tonight, warmed up and was ready to hit some PR's on MSEM squats, get through an easy 6x255, but could feel gas in my gut. to the locker room to crap part of my lower intestines out. back to the squat rack about 10min later and could barely get another 2 reps @255
On a positive note 20 rep MBEM is getting much better, should be up to BW soon! 

nice work man! good session.
