Jump Squats - Waveloaded 20/30%RM
- 55 8x2
- 95 6x2
- 135 4x1
- 95 6x2

SVJ
- 38" x6

* last squat workout (was weak) on fri. 2 days rest with jump squats in between for speed/plyos. did jump test today. did repeatable 38s but did not get any higher today.
* will do full paused full squat ramping tomorrow up to 425, 440/455 if strong enough as warmups/maintenance.. then go heavy half squats. might also do some back up squat jumps with 10-20% if i feel like it.
* happy that at least i got my estat 38" SVJ on vid this time. did multiple 38s and stopped when i got 37x1. did not really want to burn out before a heavy squat workout tomorrow. i've gotten 39s and probably a once in a while 40 but those are not something i can come up with easily. need more strength in the half squat transition depth..
* i have vid of the repeated 38s in one vid but got my co-worker in it. i've split the vids so i dont get in trouble.

38x2.

[135x8][185x6][225,275x4][325x2][365,385,405,425,440x1]

#6 Heavy Half Squats - 110%RM Waveloaded
- 325,345,365,385,405,425,440,455,475x2
- 495 2x2
- 425 2x2

Jump Squats - Light + Volume 10/20%RM
- 55 12x2
- 95 8x4

SVJ
- double hand rim grabs + chins x4

* all paused reps full squat warmup to 405. 425x1 was solid. weight felt light on the back and good explosion from the hole. did not expect to lift 440x1 so badly. i exploded from the hole. got up to 1/2 squat depth.. and the mid back gave out. energy leaked and the rest of the concentric was a crawl. momentum came close to a stop at 1/2 squat on the way up, and i stupidly pushed the weight up slowly. not a good idea. should have dropped it. did not really exhausted my legs. just got me overall beat up a lot more than needed.
*all half squats were consistent in depth up to 475. the 495 was not as deep. i did better depth with this weight last time. decided to just use the top set of 495 as a waveload to 425. depth on 425 was spot on. back to 495 and it was high again. if this happened again, it would be wiser just to use a max weight were i can still hit proper depth, and do a slightly lighter set to really get a good ammortization speed while still using a heavy weight.
* did some jump squats again and it felt good. the resistance that my legs were exerting on the landings were very smooth and "loose", and then an abrupt explosive stop at the 1/2 depth. basically, the speed of eccentric was good, reversal was explosive.. jumps were silent. only upper 2/3 of foot was in contact with the ground. did not use 135 (30%) because i might be doing too much for a day. might do it tomorrow if i recover well.
* BW at gym is 182 and 180 in the morning. 425x1 is a repeatable max weight for maintenance. i might just stop there next time. repeatable 2.36BW full squat is not bad at all. 440 is ~ 2.44BW but that weight is not always guaranteed. it messes up with the rest of my SPP training if im not solid enough for that day.
* im not doing my single leg hurdles.. and direct calf work. still have those tools for another time.

- 55 12x2
- 95 8x2

SVJ
- double hand rim grabs x6

* pick up game after some light jump squats, then SVJs after a getting warmed up. did x8 on the seated calf machine just to get it started.
* will get good recovery, skip thursday and do some more jump squats on friday. my lowerback is sore from the 440x1. did not really lowered my jumps. i was still getting high 30s.

Jump Squats - 10/20/30%RM
- 55 12x2
- 95 8x4
- 135 6x2, 8x1

* 1 day full rest. legs were strong on the warmup paused full squats. 405 was also solid. did not do a paused 425 but i was just not recovered enough even for 425x1. the concentric out of the hole was good but it slowed down too much. could have had the lift if i crawled it up slowly but decided to just drop it and save the beating.
* jump squats are getting better and better. plan is to load up to 225 (50%) for a double and waveload it with 135. jump with 135 with the same speed and control as im doing with 95 right now. target is fast 135 x8-12 jump squats.

- 55 8x1, 12x2, 12x4, 8x1
- 95 8x4

SVJ
- 37-38" x4

* legs still not ready for heavy full squats. did more speed / plyo work. will do more jump squats + bball game tmrw, then full squats + heavy halfs on tuesday.
* maintaining 182BW at gym. 180 in the morning. if i get a 455x1 on tuesday at this weight, thats an exact 2.5BW squat. that would be nice

Jump Squats - 10/20%RM Waveloaded
- 55 12x2, 8x2
- 95 8x2

SVJ
- 40x2, 38-39 x4

* paused 405 was good. i hesitated doing 425. could have had it but could have burned out also. 440/455 is not going to happen right now. the high volume of jump squats are really adding to my fatigue. still happy to get repeatable and easy paused 405s. stopped there and did my jump squats. no heavy halfs. my legs don't feel very strong for lifting very heavy weights. it just feel like my legs would benefit more from speed training right now. they feel "loose"
* after the wave loaded jump squats.. i did a single pick up game.. and then SVJ.. and the awesome happened.. repeatedly..yes.. 40x2 and some very high 30s. too bad i had no idea i would be this good today.. no vid. will do it next week. hopefully i dont mess up with my fatigue. my goal is repeatable 40s.. so unless i can do them whenever i want, my goal is not yet met.
* my SVJ really improved lately because of the 10/20/30% jump squats. just because ive been doing more of them than the supra max half squats. if i count the submax half squats.. then yes, ive done a lot of them. and it could be them. i really dont know. i know its not thru shock plyos cause i really dont have them in cycle right now.
* supra max half squats have a very good potentiation effect to the jumps squats. my jumps squats are just silent. force absorption and transition is quick and controlled.

40'' SVJ , that's insane!!!
Mad props kingfish , you're a beast!!!

BTW , you're a baller, a high flyer, a vert training addict , howcome there is no dunk stuff in your journal?

Kingfish · « **Reply #262 on:** June 21, 2011, 10:06:47 am »

^ thanks

taking dunk vids is the easy part. im just making sure i have repeatable 12" over the rim when i jump.. ~ 10 with the ball.

good stuff! 40" SVJ!

Agreed , those 2'' with-without the ball gap are so frustrating when you get ~10'' above , you get so high but you can't dunk unless you can palm the ball easy and tight or you are a lob god like adarqui!
I was talking about dunk talk in general , i never saw a dunk session logged , or mentioning dunks in practice/warmups/games. My bad though, i just saw there is dunk material on your youtube channel.
Anyway , with 40'' you already got that 12'' above rim and from a standstill too, so i guess we'll have awesome footage coming soon!
Keep it up...

#7 Heavy Half Squats - 110%RM
- 325 x4
- 345,365,385,405,425,440,455,475x2
- 495 2x3
- 455 2x1

Jump Squats - Light + Volume 10%RM
- 55 12x2

* was planning on taking a vid with my jump tester to show my 40 but the gym today was packed. no room to set up my tester. i did my heavy half squats instead. was planning on doing the half squats tomorrow because i did not feel very strong for heavy lifting yesterday. thought another skipped day will be really helpful for recovery.
* all warmup full squats were ok but ive had stronger days. was expecting the heavy halfs to suck but surprisingly, i saw a lot of improvement from the last workout. the sub 455 weights were quick on the transitions. 475 and 495 maintained same 1/2 depth. still not accelerating the negative or "letting the bar lower a little faster" on supra max weights, but bar control was also improved.
* first 2 sets on 495 were solid, and explosive after the ammortization. the 3rd set was noticeably slower. stopped there. did a back up 455x2. my lower back got a good workout. it feels a little stiff right now. quads feel "locked". a 12x2 set of 10% jump squat to get some speed to end the workout.

#8 Heavy Half Squats - 110%RM
- 325,345,365,385,405,425,440,455,475x2
- 495 2x2

SVJ
- double hand rim grabs x4

* depth was good on all half squats. 495 starting to feel easy. the tightness post workout is now reaching my left upper knee area. there is no pain but im sure the area above the knee cap (ligaments) is starting to get a good beating, even with minimal reps.
* i will use 515 (~115%) next time and still stick with doubles. thats ~ 2.9BW half squat.
* the double hand rim grabs+chins were almost effortless.
* rest tomorrow or some jump drills if i feel like it. then some low volume of half squats on sunday.. something to prime me up for a jump test on monday. hope it works.

Wait till you work on your running approach. 45+ inch RVJ is well within your grasp.

ESPECIALLY if you can get repeatable 40" SVJs.

May I ask what your vert was before training.

i see myself trying to up my full squats again.. until my body refuses to get stronger.. or until get sick of it. 5 plates look cool.

~ 28" from a 3 step approach.
