40x40
Coges:
New log time. Been contemplating this for a bit. Fresh start and all. Really though I've been faffing about for a while now and think a new log without the clutter of the previous one will help me focus. One main goal for this log is to have a recorded 40" vert by my 40th birthday which is in roughly 349 days. My most recently recorded vert test was 32" in mid April this year off the back of maybe 4 weeks of consistent training. Weighing in at 90-91 at the time. I'm not sure I can add 8" in 12 months but I can certainly try. All training will be focused on this one goal.
The following is a checklist of items I think I need to tick off in order to reach the goal:
- bw of 85kgs- I have at least 6-7kgs of fat I can lose. Want to be no more than 8%.
- consistent jumping practice- practice that skill
- Loose calves, quads and hip flexors- these have been tight for years. Like decades.
- Have elite core strength- this is the one area I've never trained. I've had decent squatting and deadlifting strength. Never had good or decent core/hip flexor strength. This could be a huge missing link for me.

Ball game was ok. We lost by 6 but we were down by 15 after 5 minutes. Basically asleep at the wheel for the start of the game. I played ok. Still getting over the back issue from a couple of weeks back. Feeling good in game but missing a step of pace and some height from my vert.
Stretching- Couch and pigeon stretches.

Awesome goal mate. I actually think you have a good chance of getting it if you have some clear air to train hard.
