Phase I DONE!




now moving to Phase II, let's see how it goes




Byeeee byeee

Damn i forgot.


I just did week 1 first session of Phase II


Overall it was good, the only thing that killed me was the burnout complex and the jumping squats.



I'll update today since today i have to do the 2nd session of the first week

II Phase, FIrst Week Done


I can see that 2nd week is going to be a bitch

Hey SoulAndBone,

It looks like you are working hard so keep it up. Good stuff mate ;-)

One thing I noticed is that you haven't posted your stats anywhere... If you are training your vertical then it is often good to find out what your starting vertical is and compare it to your current vertical. How can you improve something unless you can measure it?? Sure you can probably guess if you jumping feels stronger, but sometimes after doing these crazy exercises all week, it's good to find out that you gain something from the week. You can learn if something's working or not.

Just a thought anyway dude. Glad you are getting back in to the sport after an injury. I have been injured before and it can drop your motivation through the floor sometimes. Keep it up champ!

Thanks for your nice comment Mig. The reason of why i didn't measured my stats was simply because the only gain that will really count for me will be being able to make clean dunks Until that happens i will continue to practice and practice. That's the short explanation anyways, and i'm sure i will notice the gains anyways

Well i just did the 1st sesion of the second week of Phase 2. The plyometric part as usual piece of cake. The two leg ski squat on the other hand were really difficult (and the scissor hip extension too, considering that now you have to stay up for three seconds).

But i did it, i'm looking forward for the next sunday when i will finally finish the 2nd week of Phase 2.



That's it for now

I'm counting down!

Novice.

And thanks mate

every help is really appreciated

I just did the 2nd week of Phase II of VJB and i can already say that i'm flying, I really want to see how much my gains are after i finish the whole program and i have my weeks of rest.

Yesterday i went to play, there was a rim which isn't 10ft, but it's really near that height, I went high tryiing to grab the rim, and i was surprised about how high i jumped, that i grabbed it without a problem , and with my surprise i had to let it go because i feared i would bring it down and i fell akwardly. Despite the big fall it was really cooool!!!.


I'll keep my journal updated. Bye bye!

good job with the gains =]

i woulda guessed that the ring you grabbed was probably 9'8" coz some outdoor rings are like that.

atm im just touching 9'6 so im trying to get those last 6" and get 10' =]

but good luck with further gains!
