I've never seen anyone get higher each successive rebound jump in place like this

see 1:15

highest near straight leg box jumps I have seen at 1:53
Not surprising as his standing vertical is well over 40 inches

Thank Youuu, lol I don't really workout to gain vert, but I have tried squatting. I can only do about 1.2 times my weight, and my vert is at abot 46 running. I dunk every single day, my body has gotten used to it so I am increasing vertical this way after giving myself two days rest. With that in mind, think I should still try regularely working out for my legs?

so how you feel tomorrow

^ front delts you mean

High elbows and inwards

can always wrap a towel around the bar

Tuesday 10th December 2019

band pull apart star drill - 10 reps each axis
band dislocates x20
soft tissue work and release session at home
Banded ankle work at home

bodyweight without shoes -  86.7 kg - ugh heavy today

fasted

BBall practice session - 45 mins
dribble, shooting practice, high intensity moves and layups
A few jumps at the end

City was smokey as hell from bushfires - like mist/fog thick!
So I figure playing outdoors was a bad idea... so went to a nearby Indoor court...It wass kinda smokey inside as well....
Measured the rim at 0.25inch lower than 10 feet, backboard pad was 9'5"
Could only touch the pad an inch or so from L-R plant jump, so only a 9'6" touch today :/

I prefer outdoor courts, hard to judge depth perception since there is no contrasty sky! 
Wooden floor didn't really make the landings any softer, but better for the ball and shoe wear

back at home

supported ATG split squat BW x10

facing down garage slope, in oly shoes

rotating sets between the squats
front squat first rep paused - 40kg x5

High bar squat all paused - 40kg x5+1 hold at bottom for 10 deep breaths, 60kg x5, 80kg x2 ( second rep regular)
normal reps - 80kg x2, 100kg x 1

70% of e1RM - 3 mins rests - explosive - 90kg 3x5
5 mins rest - AMRAP 90kg x 12 @ RPE 9

Squats felt uncomfortable today, but I guess 90kg is starting to get light enough to throw around now, +2 reps since the last time I did an AMRAP with it 3 weeks ago, with a rep in the tank.
Puts e1RM at 130-135kg, 286-297lbs
Was undecided if I would do an AMRAP today, but what the hell, just went for it.


Kettbell swing onto toes 24kg x6, x12
clean grip deadlift + RDL combo - deadlift, lowered to knee, RDL back up, then lowered under control RDL style back to floor 100kg x 6 combos -  3 reps normal, 3 reps hooked grip
Good morning onto toes 40kgx5,  60kg x9
front squat support 90kg x10 secs, 100kg x10 secs, 105kg x 40 secs

Deadlift+RDL combo feeling easier now at 100kg, time to go up in weight, but my grip is not keeping up....


Rotating between each exercise - 1+ mins rest
+ = 30secs rest
Peterson step ups - leaning forward a bit to activate glutes - barbell -  5 inch +40kg x15, 45kg x 15

3500+ calorie burn for today, not including weights

plan to eat 2700 calories

Interesting stuff. Makes me want to play around with like 6 sets of 6 with stuff left in the tank every set. Would probably feel incredible after the workout too without having the fatigue, but having the endorphins etc

That's how I'm squatting right now, pretty much - I do less than 50% of the rep maxes at 70-75-80%, cycling between each intensity range, per workout
Although I may drop the 80% range soon, and use 65% sets of 7, dropping to 6 after 3 sets, 70% sets of 5, dropping to 4 after 3 sets... and 75% sets of 4 dropping to 3 after 3 sets.
I can feel the bar speed slow down, and a bit more strain right at that point, which is when the largest, fastest, and less fatigue resistant muscle fibers are starting to drop out, hence the slower bar speed.

Training this way suits me better, as heavy loads spook me, and burn me out fast, and cause me more aches and pains.
Plus I train after BBall and jumping

So in theory if you stop all work sets at that point, your only developing the largest and fastest fibers, while keeping the slower ones mostly untrained...
So they are less likely to get in the way of explosiveness, and receive less damage so recovery overall is also better
That's the training model I'm subscribing to right now, anyway.
