I think that you might need to rest.

I did 4 weeks of AA3 I got results after 2 weeks than it just became easier to jump the same height consitently. However I have quit AA3 and I am doing VJB. (Dont even think of doing AA3 if you got VJB)

Your gains were pretty impresive after just one phase. If resting doesnt work than I guess the best thing you can do is contact Kely Bagget.

Good Luck!

nvm. bad post

Do you care to elaborate on this?

It is definitely the creatine and this guy cant be intermediate or advanced.

This guy... you mean me? Yeah, it's definately not intermediate of advanced. Just look at the heading of your own reply and it's referred to as a novice journal.

Good on you for posting though, I hope other people got to benefit from your speedy two cents pissed around the forum...

I agree with you on the creatine, it's definately a significant factor. Mainly because it helped me recover quicker between workouts, not from the strength gains believe it or not. The creatine would just ensure I was fresher when it came to testing time. I've learnt recovery really is an important thing when it comes to testing your vert between phases.

Cheers.

If you want strength i would recommend the following:
1.don't do vjb plyometrics(running is plyometric and u are pretty much plyometric,i saw your vid and you are springy...actually i'm impressed if u cannot squat ur weight but jump 30' so strength is your weekness)
2.do 2 strength workout /week (but try to do it when your legs don't fell tired )
Squat like this:1 set should have 3 max reps...in such way that u shouldn't be able to do the 4th.Now usually you should do 10 sets of 3 reps but stop it when u feel really sore).Rest between sets 3-4 mins.Warm up very well.

Workout 1:squat and calf raises
Workout 2:deadlifts and hamstrings curl

You could workout calves,deadlifts and hamstrings curl in the manner it's written in VJB.Try to incorporate abs in your workouts.

Another tips:do not touch with your heel the ground especially when u land after a jump.
If you want supplementing creatine is not enough especially if u want strength.U should take proteins too.

Just to point out, the extra four inches in the first week could have been because you were out of shape/had bad jumping form, and that made a lot of difference. Now that you're in shape, you'll start adding TRUE inches. just a thought

So how has it been going man? Have you contacted Kelly? Good Luck!

Hi All,

I just wanted to say I'm back from holiday and training consistently again.

My 1RM on Squats has gone from 70kgs to 90kgs. My standing vertical has also gone from 25 inches to a surprising 28 inches.

I spoke to KB and he gave me a program to get my past my plateua on squat strength. The goal is to keep hitting squats until I can do 2.0x my bodyweight. This will take months apparently so I probably won't update as often because there is not much to tell other than just doing another squat workout in the gym.

Thanks heaps to Andrei, moomba and kw_39 for your posts and encouragement. It was good getting some replies from people who are working hard also.

Cheers,

Mig
