Hey darq, im gonna start foamrolling my IT again (havnt in like 3 months), i found an old piece of pvc pipe with 3.5" diametre. would this suffice? im using now so........i cut it to about 23" long and just gonna keep foamrolling that left IT Band today.............

ya that would work very good.. gonna be painful !

Wrap a towel around it and duct tape it in place.

6/7/2010

155.6 today

- considering my workout last night wasn't that long, this is pretty good, definitely not water drained

i was just about to leave for the court but a major thunder storm is coming, perfect timing :< this training at night thing isn't working out too well so far, last night & tonight have been raining.

if it rains real bad i'll just do a plyo workout tonight but honestly i wanted to dunk.. SHITTTTTT.

Darq whats your opinion on the reverse lunge? do you see it as performing walking lunges in the fact that in entails "postive/forward" hip extension like a walking lunge but unlike a normal lunge "On the spot". I a hoep i sensa makin

if you can't do walking lunges, i'd do reverse lunges.. but reverse lunges don't have that freefall for the front leg that walking lunges do, that's why i love walking lunges.. but my preference goes:

#1 - walking lunges (+ stepups)
#2 - reverse lunges (+ stepups)
#3 - BSS (+ stepups)

most people don't have the room to do barbell walking lunges unfortunately, but they are definitely my favorite

yes you make sense though, it definitely mimics the concentric phase, it just doesn't have that eccentric impact phase.

peace man!

ok so the rain pissed me off, but then at 9:05pm or so, i went to the court, because the storm was overhead but still hadn't rained yet.. it was brewing for like 1 hour!

workout #1: dunks
- 5 minute warmup
- 33" jump off 3 step lead in
- 8 dunk attempts before it rained
- i pulled a vag dunk session (dunking in drizzling weather) lol.. it was drizzling lightly but i just had to dunk, i was flying.. finally after 8th one it started pouring so..
- no dunks went down but i was getting up nasty throwing them down hard.. i was in a huge rush.. resting like 15-20 seconds between dunks..
- used mini tripod so some distortion, but definitely wrist over rim a few inches

here's a few pics:

workout #2: 1am
- light sprints, short
- svj's no idea how high, ill put pictures in a bit
- tuck jumps: 2 x 10
- more svj's
- ice skaters
- one ~60 yard sprint on a curve
- single leg box jump (~18") to drop stabilize: 1 x ~8 each leg
- squat iso: 1:30 (being bit by misquitos)
- neutral grip pullups: 14 but stopped a few early
- pushups on handles: 20 but stopped way early
- hamstring iso: 1:30
- calf iso: 5minutes
- diamond pushup iso: 30 sec stopped early

one of the svj's:
- trying to figure out how high it is.. my reach in flats has to be 96 or 95.5", head height would be 71" probably.. track flats im shorter than basketball shoes.. so my head is a bit over that 96" or so, by how much im not sure.. i want to get my chin over that metal roof thing

Yes , that's the way, dunking in the rain FTW.
I should post a dunk from that last session i did , its right when the heavy rain starts , you can see the floor changing colour , even a few rain drops fall on the lens!

well i'll go with 3" down, i really don't know how to interpret these weird angles from my mini-tripod HEHE!!!!!! i mean i know for a fact on my first real warmup jump before dunking, i hit that .5-1" down my wrist or whatever off 3 step lead, so ya maybe it was 35? i got no idea, the angle kills me.. haha.. im uploading a vid soon of it so you can judge.. the dunk i didn't slow mo you can see some real nice float in it.

i dno lemme upload vid, hah, i can't fig out this mini-tripod shit like i can with my large tripod :F

ya man i put some rain footage at the end of the vid, i dno if you can see it while im dunking, very bright light in the vid shields it a bit.

im happy regardless

nice

you are better than me at vert-eyeballing so i am definitely happy

i don't know exactly how high it was but i definitely felt like i was flying, and those throw downs couldn't happen with some weak jumps, so im still happy this morning

peace man
