Thanks for the input LBSS.

What generally is the solution to this issue? I am kinda unsure of the cause?

Raptor · « **Reply #436 on:** July 31, 2013, 12:18:33 pm »

On the SVJ try to really stretch UP with your arms extended overhead and then load and jump. You have a very small amplitude of movement the way you're doing it right now.

Thanks Raptor, do you vote it is mostly technique?

I have noticed what LBSS has but am still unsure if it is a problem technique, strength, mobility or structure?

Raptor · « **Reply #438 on:** July 31, 2013, 01:49:40 pm »

In the particular case of the SVJ I'd say it's just strictly technique. Like you haven't thought to try that yourself and you're hearing about it now.

Try it and see what happens.

In all the other situations it's a matter of strength.

raptor and i are talking about different things. not sure about Rx, guess i'd start with strengthening/activating hip external rotators. so clamshells, x-band walks, squats with a band around your knees, that kind of thing.

LoopieMclooperson · « **Reply #443 on:** August 16, 2013, 01:18:49 am »

^^^^ Thanks man.

My 1rm has been 250#'s my whole adult life with little or no real work. Doesn't seem to matter if I weigh 180 or 160.

My squat has been a constant struggle on the other hand.

Been on vacation, so now real workouts to log

I did some jumps on Monday.

Tonight's work.......

Bit of a struggle to get back into things.

Should have been fully rested and ready for progress tonight, however I was just not feeling it.

More valleys. time to climb.

squat 3x185, 1x225, 1x245, 5x225, 5x235, 2x245

Still not feeling it, cut the session short.

I will try again on Sunday.

Blllllaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

8/26/13 Monday BW=158.4

jump squat 5x45, 5x95
squat 3x185, 1x225, 1x245, 5x225, 5x235, 5x245, 4x245
barbell lunge 5x155, 5x170, 5x190
calf raise 180# 3x20

Better tonight.

My current schedule dictates that I work out later in the evening (after 8pm). This is probably helping fuel my recent regression.

I hope.

8/29/13 Thursday BW=158.4

jump squat 5x45, 5x95
squat 3x185, 1x225, 1x245, 5x225, 5x235, 5x245, 7x245
barbell lunge 5x155, 5x175, 5x195
calf raise 180# 2x20

better again tonight. Adding weight and adding reps.

I almost blew off tonight's work out. Then thought better of it.

no work = no progress.

Always feels good to get a good workout in after thinking about skipping it!
