3 December 2011

Bball game.
Bad endurance , insane vert.
We were playing away , at this court that has the best floor ever. Perfect grip and bounce, its like being doped in there.
Did only 1 rim jump off 1 step that i touched rim 1'' below wrist ( 10'9'' / 34'' ). That is actually a 10' touch PR , i've jumped higher but jump peaks were before touching the rim.
Endurance was awful though, couldn't even breath right. Turns out i was sick ( cold/flu ) and i didn't know. Felt like shit when i got home , had fever and sneezes and all the shits.


4 , 5 December 2011

Sick , total rest.

Nah , cant jump on gym days. I go to gym straight after work and there is no bb court there. I must do them in the off days even if not optimally recovered , not going for PRs , just maintain/improve jumping efficiency.

Nothing!  :uhhhfacepalm:


11 December 2011

Bodyweight@session : ~188
Injuries/aches : none
Soreness : quads 4/5 ( mostly inner/vmo ) , glutes 4/5 , hamstrings 2/5 , calves 1/5

Jumping session.
Too sore , felt like i couldn't contribute any 'plyometric strength' at all, only voluntary.
Touched 10'5'' ( 30'' ) easily from the 1st warmup jump , but couldn't get above that the whole session though.
Dropsteps, 1/2 steps, full runups , relaxed , fast , slow , ME , whatever i tried i would get 30'' in each and every jump , funny!

Also i uploaded a squat form video in my pics/vids thread , not sure how many noticed it so giving the link here too , please comment on the pic/vid thread:

I have a feeling you're kicking my butt in terms of half squatting. And I have a feeling it doesn't matter how much you can full squat... what matters is how much you can half squat since that's jump specific.

Well that was my basic argument , why insist on improving full squats when i am so much better naturally at half squats?
After the recent discussion with you and Lance that got deleted, i decided to treat each movement as a separate one and improve as much as i can both. I favored the half-squats too much till now , want to experiment with full squats and see what happens. Not dumping my halfs anyway , ME day is only full squats , explosive day is only half squats. Gonna go like this for a while , then re-evaluate.

Definitely. I think the full squat is great for building muscle and as a GPP tool while the half squat, more specific, is more of a SPP tool.

Bball game.
Endurance : Very good, steady improvement here.
Vert : Legs felt springy and bouncy but at a dropstep rim jump at half time i only reached 10'4'' ( 29'' ).
Then after the game ended i went for a dunk off 2 steps, i lost the ball grip going up but still grabbed the rim mid-palm ( ~10'5'' ) which is awesome for a dunk attempt ( ball in hands ). Vert verdict : n/a

Got caught up with work and erands , did nothing!


16 December 2011

Bodyweight@session : ~190.5. Turns out gym scale shows 2lbs less than home scale , gonna use home scale for reference.
Soreness : none
Injuries/aches : none

REA SQUATS:
4x3@132lbs
-Improving , real freefall , explosive concentric , transition slower than i want though.

SQUATS:
5@176lbs , full
5@187lbs , full
5x@198lbs , full
5@203,5lbs , full ( last time attempted 209 and could only do them above parallel )
5@209lbs , full ( last time backed off to 198 to keep depth )
-Used 2,5kg plates to elevate heels & Lance's bend-knees first technique. Tried to place bar lower, probably mid-bar. Also drunk a redbull before gym. The combining result was great as shown above. Had improvement in torso lean in all sets and reps too.
-Interesting , squatting 209lbs ( ~1.1*BW ) below parallel is very challenging and i am experimenting/learning technique & form. After 4 years of squatting i am a squat noob!  :uhhhfacepalm:

BB REVERSE LUNGES:
8@132 each leg , easy
8@143 each leg , hard but easier than last time
8@154 each leg , hard , but much easier than last time

STANDING CALVE RAISES:
1x15@176lbs
1x15@187lbs
1x12@198lbs , couldn't complete 15 reps.

Yeah keep driving that full squat up, if your form allows it and you improve form over time you'd have a better muscle gain stimulus than what you'd get from half squats + assistance exercises in my opinion.
