Squat day errr night!

BW 185lbs.
Soreness: Knee felt damn near pain free. Id say 95% of the workout felt great from strictly a knee soreness/pain standpoint.

Extensive warmup

Squat:
135 x5, 225 x3, 315 x1, 365 x1, 385 x1. Top single was a little shaky knee wise but im close to were I was limit strength wise.

335lbs: x3, x2.
225lbs: x10, x10.  This is were Im lacking, I cant rep weight for shit right now lol! No enduranceor whatever you want to call it.

Did 2 circuits of SL leg press, SL extensions, calf raise and some box jumps at the end. Jumps felt very nice compared to last week.

Finished with some half ass core work.

I figure next week I'll start back in a full work out and try to get back to 405/365x3/315x10 levels then go for some reactive work.

BW: 182lbs tonight. Felt pretty good.

extensive warmup
Deadlifts:
135x5, 225 x3, 315 x1, 385 x1,  435 x1. Interesting! Wasnt as much of a struggle as last week even with more weight. Cool.

385lbs: x3, x3.
315lbs: x8, x8. Could have prolly got 3x10 but...slow.

2 circuits of medium weight ham curl, glute extension and calf raise. Very light core work. Box jumps were extremely explosive at the end. Best since pre injury for sure.

Went and jumped after a light chest/tri circuit today. It wasnt pretty.

Current analysis: while my 1RMs seem to be close and my strength endurance is meh....my mechanics/footwork and general explosive nature is all sorts of FUBAR'd. Shot some brief video and noticed these things:

●SVJ and 1 step jumps arent far off from where they were. Easy near wrist at rim SVJ so thats 34-36ish and weak dunks off one step.

●my RVJ is TRASH, because:
         -steps are very choppy. only getting a 2 step lead in basically
         -plant step is short by a mile. no real gather.
         -very slow transition from plant to toe off.
         -collapsing slightly in the plant.

So....gotta get some reps in and regrease the groove as Im basically trying to over power jumps instead of being fluid like I normally am.

Sad vid forthcoming...

Yay. In other news....I havent ate in 2 days and seem to be continuing the Adarq relationship curse. Go me.

Tis true. Im just not used to having to think when I jump I guess. :/

And thanks man. Im trying its just really, really shitty lately. Wo der how long you can train intensely when you have literally zero appetite? Anyone like to join me on my little science project?

And....guess its over. My wife took all her stuff and left last night so theres that. and my hand is probably broken because I, like a dumbass, punched the side of the house....which is brick. Im thinking it won that battle. My bet: boxers fracture of my right pinky. We'll see. Im in hell now but Im going to go deadlift sometime today if my hand lets me.
