OK shit is getting crazy. I did some jumps and dunks outside, was gettin up good so I went inside to use the vertec.

First jump = 29.5"svj (1" pr), I couldn't believe it. Two jumps later... 30"svj #%@&#$

Rvj- got up to 34.5" (.5" pr) after a few and was getting sorta tired from jumping outside earlier... but after a few more attempts I still got 35"rvj #%$@$%

MILESTONES ACHIEVED

I got it all on vid so I'm gonna upload something special later with the help of adarq.

10-17-10  Session 1

Probably still fatigued from all that jumping two days ago but I wanted to get back to work so I can jump even higher!

It's been almost a month since I have rep'd squats so I'll probably be really sore and my vert will probably go down a bit but it's ok because I know it's there.

Dynamic warmup, sprint warmup

3 max ~10 yard sprints, felt really fast but I didn't have a stopwatch.

24" dj's 4x5- don't know exactly how high I was getting as I didn't have the vertec but they felt good (no collapsing or heavy/dead feeling). Did jumps for head height on a low ceiling (measured it to be about 7'10.5") and I was moving ceiling tile at least an inch so I'm gonna say they were around 27.5" which is really good. PR on 24" dj's for sure, I think pr for 18" was 27.5 or 28. Last week 24" dj's were horrible so this is a good improvement.

squat warmup: 135x5 185x3 225x1 255x1

275x5 275x5 275x6 - all 3 sets were really hard but that's definitely a 3x5 pr

lunge: 195x3x5

barbell calf raise: 135x4x5

core circuit x2

Thanks for the encouragement man, it means a lot. 40" would/will be ridiculous. I want it.

dammmn sick work coming back into session-1.. 24" dj's feeling good/PR was inevitable, awesome you got it already.. you shouldn't have as much fatigue from session-1 as a few weeks back.

peace
