^ yes lady michael jordan, I paused up top.  I think pausing up top makes it easier since I can get a breather.

10/26

No squat today, going to rest for tomorrow when i attempt 250 x 5 x 3 full paused.

Push ups x 35, had to stop, had this type of pain on shoulders, been lingering for months

Declined sit ups (almost 90 degrees)  x 20 x 2

DB shoulder press (40 x 10) (45 x 10)  no pain on shoulders

Bench press 135 x 12, had to stop due to pain on shoulders.

This shoulder joint problem has been bothering me for months now.  I have yet to bench in so long.  Been really lacking in upper body strength.  For some reason, benching hurts, but db incline bench does not.  Shoulder press does not, but push up there is pain.

My doctor advises knee squat machinie the ligaments around the chest for the tard pain in your lats. I dont know but try some vietnam D and C they help take it in the morning for the bones and stuff.

Strength, Power, Reactivity, & Speed Discussion / Re: Squatting plan

Interesting.  However, I do get kind of skeptical with anything that has the word "texas" in it.  I may just try this.

What about this plan right here
: Texas method week 1.  Standard method (3 sets of 5 ) week 2.  And power method week 3 (3 sets of 3) ?

Putting on lots of weight lately.  Not sure if this is too detrimental to my end goal of hitting 42in vertical in order to dunk at 7'4 reach.

ADARQ & LanceSTS - Q&A / Re: horrible squat progress questions
« on: October 13, 2012, 03:09:00 am »
trying to cut corners i guess which ended up biting me in the ass. i was thinking if i could keep my bw low thats less i have to squat before my strength to weight ratio is as good or better then before. didnt think it was radical enough that it would completely stall my strength gains. fuck it. i gave in have been adding more meat, yogurt, protein powder to my diet before. im still trying to be disciplined about sticking to diary, meat, veggies.

i was impatient lifting 225 x 5 a few weeks ago now im lifting 185 x 5 lol. its all good probably a valuable lesson about waiting.

Eat, Lift, Sleep, Eat, Lift, Sleep, REPEAT. Easy work.

Was reading your diet and was wondering what happens if you eat normal? Do you lose muscle mass, strength, become fatigue...?

No way you want to be 130lbs at 6'0" tall. I'm 134 same height, and too skinny as a woman, that would be way too skinny for a man.

Progress Journals & Experimental Routines / Re: THE DREAM JOURNAL

Had a dream I was at the YMCA, had a fast break and decided to dumk it. Dunked it pretty easy, which isn't far fetch. I can pretty much get it now, but once I get the ball over the rim, the ball keeps going forward, because I can't grip the ball, but I'll get it soon.

Thursday I decided I'd go low in my squats, that I'd do them " the right way". Which meant i'd have to use less weight. For the last two days I've been extremely sore, so I was wondering do you gain more strength through atg squats or heavier half squats? Also are you working more muscles in the atg squats ?

So, if I drink some coffee before trying to dunk. I'm going to jump higher, based on an extra boost of energy???

I've heard that in pick up games their most likely not going to miss their jump shots, that probably goes for players that aren't considered good jump shooters in the NBA; like d.Ross, rondo, ect...

What does the red bull actually do or is it a placebo effect as far as jumping higher or is it just to get pumped up to jump?
