Went for a dunk session to see where i am after holidays and 3 weeks of no jumping.
Feet were terribly sore from workout 2 days ago.
Dunk session was a BAD failure , couldnt even dunk 9'8''. Best jump i got was 28,5'' , without ball of course, 3 times.

Another failed dunk session.
This time feet were recovered , felt good , had my carbs and cafeine ready... and 30' before i go there it rained!  >:(
I still went but it was terribly slipery, couldnt get a decent runup.
Standing VJ was at my PR levels (26+) , running was at 31,5'' but it was rather dropstep jump than running jump.
The good thing is that i had many of those 31+ jumps , and they felt rather easy too.
As for the dunks? i had like 0/15 , they were all backriming. No surprise , i cant dropstep-dunk on 10' yet, especially on wet concrete!!! :-\

nice man.. i figure you have a few more sessions in you before you feel back to normal.. perhaps you might even be able to running & standing PR from having just done drops / bw stuff etc & not much jumping..

oh and you jumped on a slippery surface wtf..

PR's soon ;d

drops will make jumping FEEL EASY.. thats always what i've encountered.. i don't feel I muscle up as much when i do drops/depth jumps... seems like you're experiencing this also.

keep zoning in mentally because I feel you have some PR's in you from how your 29th/31 days went..

peace man!

Well , the 29th was a joke , i was sore that i could barely walk , dont know how i ended up trying to dunk! LOL
The 31st was pretty good for bad ( ! ).
Im still waiting to see where i am at a good day , without excuses ( soreness , rain, sun and other shit bugging me all summer ).
