friday night drove up to nyc to see my cousin's play. chilled with my brother up there on saturday night then came home sunday ready for jumping. then i found out that my friend from elementary and high school was shot and killed yesterday morning. no one really knows why or what happened yet. he wasn't a close friend or anything but it's still shocking and motivation to train kind of plummeted after that. gonna get back in the gym today, though.

+1 for dog speed training. my dogs will chase me, no questions asked, if i start running. so taking them to the park and just running around randomly, juking them out, whatever, gets them all happy and excited and is a good/fun workout.

BW = ???
SORENESS = cruuuuucial soreness in glutes and adductors
ACHES/INJURIES = left big toe, mid back (?)
FATIGUE = low
DIET = good

session 2 : power

- warmup

- sprint warmup

- sprints : 10-20 yards - to fire up

- jumps : 2 step & vert
pretty low but got better as i went. jumped at a new hoop, outside on asphalt. slippery but at least no one was around. it helps to look at the point where i want my last step to start.

- MR DL BOUND (vertical emphasis): 4 x 10-20 MAX EFFORT, ridiculously powerful armswing
mid-back tweaking like a mother, only did 2 sets

- Pogos: 4 x 5 MAX EFFORT 4 x 20 submax
continuing to go submax until i'm less shitty at these

- REA squat : 4 x 3 (40%)
125,125,125,125

- MSEM squat: 2 x 4 (~90%)
285,285

- BSS : 3 x 3
150,150,150 == ouch

yeah i'm with you on this one. heavy/supramax eccentrics make no sense unless you're rehabbing from tendinosis. then there's some evidence that they can be a big help. but i don't think supramax squats are worth it. seems like fanciness for the sake of it, when you should just be doing normal squats.

While it's impossible to know how many students disobey BYU's honor code, which prohibits fornication and alcohol use, among other things, the honor code violations that come to light almost always involve student-athletes. And they almost always involve athletes of color. Since 1993, according to our research, at least 70 athletes have been suspended, dismissed, put on probation, or forced to withdraw from their teams or the school after running afoul of the honor code. Fifty-four of them, or nearly 80 percent, are minorities. Forty-one, or almost 60 percent, are black men.

correlation does not equal causation brother it's as simple as that

What I like about this is that they didn't really "let him" get his baskets, he really put work on that. You can clearly see he has the skill.

makes some nice passes, too.

He could dunk on other presidents. That would be cool. But Putin would put him down in Judo. He ain't a president though.

PM is like half of a president, so that counts.

Yes , i still can't get why you're not jumping way higher. 320@169, WTF , that should have you in the 35 area.
You're very strong relatively and absolutely , lean , you do your plyos , you jump often , don't get it!  :pissed:
Then again you had many derails, those are major bitches.

High-freq jumping sounds nice , be sure not to wear yourself out though. When i was jumping almost every day last year , i would label most of those sessions as 'submax'. Psychology trick , just like you described about gym session : no expectations , no disappointments , just adaptation and technique improvements. So i would go like , e.g. , Monday submax , Wed submax , Saturday caff-up + ME. Worked nice.
Just saying... :D

yeah this is pretty much what i was thinking. jump more, care just enough to try to do it properly but not enough to get down on myself when i'm not jumping well, keep getting stronger. in other words, back on the arowe plan but with more or less DLRVJ depending on how i'm feeling that day.

also, i wouldn't say i'm very strong either relatively or absolutely. especially compared to some of the other dudes on here. but all that means is there's nowhere to go but up.  ::)
