Really strong! That's the way to go, glad you lift heavy poundages again!

Damn didn't know this existed! Well I've had PRs all summer long and it feels amazing.

The first month I had a crazy PR and I didn't even lift weights consistently, I just bounded. Now I am doing some sofa lunges ( http://t.co/8Asilal) and again two days ago, after a day of heavy jump squats, I got my entire hand above a low rim, probably 9'8 and just two weeks earlier I only had the top 5 inches of my hand above it. But I think the bounding is making a huge difference, hope to see crazy PRs next week

Edit: I'll add I've been training for the 100m, and been working on top speed, and I have good reason to believe that this strengthens my ankles considerably, they are sore after a day of 95-100% effort sprints.

"Performance during stretch-shortening cycle exercise is influenced by the visco-elastic properties of the muscle-tendon units. During stretching of an activated muscle, mechanical energy is absorbed in the tendon structures (tendon and aponeurosis) and this energy can subsequently be re-utilized if shortening of the muscle immediately follows the stretching. According to Biscotti (2000), 72% of the elastic energy restitution action comes from tendons, 28% - from contractile elements of muscles.

Finally hit my head on a backboard. Dunno the exact measurements, it might've hung a little low, but the rim was 9'10-11", so it couldn't've been that low. Regardless, that's probably at least a 37" vert. Definite PR.

At the 200x4 the only thing that was difficult, as I see it, was the eccentric load and control, but otherwise, on the concentric, the bar just looked like 60 kg.

I think, again, that's a sign that you need to do more eccentric/reactive work.

Been working my way up too that 100kg mark for a VERY VERY long time now and finally hit it!

Squat:
1 @ 100kg
 :personal-record: :personal-record: :personal-record: YAY!!! Finally got that 100kg regular squat! I know its stuff all compared to most but it's such a milestone for me. Man, so excited I got it! Was a huuuuuge grind though, almost died. My mind was trying to psych me out when I unracked it, so I just stood there for ages with it on my back until I knew I wasn't going to pussy out lol, was shaking like shit on my way up and re-racking it, all good though  :D  That was 1.45x bodyweight, so close to 1.5x!!!
