^^^Exactly. Toes behind a line, jump, measure from the farthest-back heel. If you lose balance and fall on your ass, measure from your ass  :D

And it is fun, unless you do it on concrete. Then, as adarq says, it hurts like a bitch. I'd recommend a track or gym floor (that kind of bouncy black stuff they put down in weight rooms).

N=2 (me + adarq) evidence for why broad jump is completely useless w/r/t vert, dunking, whatever:

Before my ankle sprain I was messing around in between sets during a workout and broad jumped 9', or farther than adarq has ever jumped in his life, even at his peak. No warm up, just jumped. And yet I probably have the worst vert (definitely the worst running vert) on this whole forum at the moment, even without the sprain.

Strong DOMS today in hamstrings and somewhat in low back (only when I extend past normal posture). Thank you, trap bar. Good sign, though.

Diet over the weekend sucked, especially yesterday. On a related but ultimately boring and whiny note, sometimes I hate having a roommate.

Looks excellent. Couple of questions:

What's a single leg buck?
Would light cardio (e.g. brisk walking, C2, stationary bike at first, longer extensive tempo/light jogging as ankle improves) be okay on some, not all, rest days?
Also, what are all of these:

-- C1: SHORT-LAT-SHUFFLE-GASSERS:

-- C1: 5-YARD-LAT-SPEED-SHUFFLE:
-- C1: 5-10-5:
-- C1: MULTI-SHUFFLE-TO-SPRINT:
?

Thanks again.

LOL at Tam hating England because he's Scottish. We hate 'em, too, man.

Also, a bit sad for Holland today to have been so close yet again. Robben should have scored twice and came away with nothing. But happy for Spain, too. Too bad it was such an ugly game.

yes. Old Eastern Bloc philosophy, pre-race post-erection-potentiation (PEP) technique.

I learned it while I was a world champion powerlifting coach in russia in the 1950's.

lol.

warm up
shot hoops, went well
foam roll x20-25 mins
LB mobility

work
DL line hops forward and back x40, x10s (35)
trap bar DL 3x8x225
BSS x10xbw
BSS iso hold x60s

cool down
stretch

Lower back was pretty tired after DLs so I hedged my bets and just did the iso holds instead of loading up a bar for reps. This was pretty damn weak all the way around. So begins the long, Sisyphean climb back up the hill...

Oh yeah, and for the line hops, the first set I just did 20 over-and-back. The second set I did 10 seconds for touches. Got 35.

I just thought that quote was funny. Alan Aragon making fun of "clean" vs. "dirty" carbs. Guess it's just me haha.

I'm pretty sure no other white dude has done it, at least in competition. The people over at CF were also talking about this as the first time and some of them have been around elite track for a long time.

No insult intended, I just find it funny that anyone has bought Surge. If you want to keep funneling cash to those shysters, knock yourself out. I'll stick with my chocolate milk mixed with whey concentrate.

W/r/t HFCS, also see:

Why bash a company when you haven't even tried their products? Fair enough you do what works for you and i will do what works for me but as i said in my earlier post its not all bout how many carbs/protein ingested, its the types and all the BCAA's and leucine you are missing out on that chocolate milk doesn't provide. And yeah i know what a carbohydrate is and their breakdown products, studied nutrition in college.

I bash Biotest because they're shysters. Because they make bullshit up -- lie, in other words -- to sell their insanely overpriced, unnecessary products. Fuck them.
