That's okay right? cuz i tried lifting 70% of my max and it was way too easy.

yea that should be fast enough thats good i dont see how your vert decreased uless stopping plyos dis it remember once you stop plyos or all forms of sports your vert will decrease.

Shoot, thats probably why. i was counting that jump shots would be my plyos but it looks like i need to do novice plyos once a week.

You think that will be better?

ps i am uploading burn the fat build the muscle ebook book collection right now

yes to maintain vertical gained from plyos you must do plyos once a week, same for weight training if you want to keep gains from weight training lift atleast once a week.
