I have a theory that if you can do a bw snatch then you can dunk a basketball. I also think that Every 20 pounds on the hang clean can add an inch to your vertical jump.

I can snatch over my BW. I can't dunk a basketball though (I wish!). I would have to get pretty high above the rim to get the ball in. I can get up to the rim. I am 5'5". I would need to be able to get my whole hand well over the rim in order to put the ball in the hoop though.

Nice lifts today BB. I like the A/B program. The C/Ps looked pretty strong....It's almost your body weight. Do you have a harder time at the clean or press part ?

Thanks. For sure the press is harder!
 
P, at 5'5" if you can touch the rim that's really good! I can't remember the B- baller- a point guard-from way back- who was 5'5" and could dunk- anyone remember his name? :scratch:
 
Brutus, you make it sound like I am going to roll over and die! :laugh: I'm not that old!

Spud played for Atlanta along with the human highlight (D. Wilkins)
 
Anyone see Nate Robinson last night in the NBA Skills Comp. He has to be like 5'6
 
Nah he made it to the finals again.... there were some pretty cool dunks in general though.

True most 17yrs old do the bitch workout 10sets of curls ,4 sets of dumbbell kickbacks with chrome dumbbells,and 6 sets of bench. Its like they see the power rack and their like shit that looks like hard work all i want to do is get bigger guns.

:yes: At least you are more educated that 99.999% of us when we were 17. I did my first squat when I was 19. That year I added 20lbs to my frame.
 
Right on, YM. When I was in college at Mizzou, I had access to a great weight room, lots of options, and plenty of time to use them all. If I would have known ANYTHING back then, I could have really enjoyed my time more...

Today-

Tai chi/ 1 hour

45 min walk - mostly just to get some sunshine; it was nice out today.


I'm still deciding if I should put my stabilization/ core work at the beginning of my workout or if i should just leave it until the end.

I always prefer it at the beginning. When I don't do it at the beginning, I don't do it ever. Also, I think activating those muscles are a great way to finish up your warm up and prepare for movement.
 
Yeah. When I do them at the end I'm often so tanked that I feel like I'm just going through the motions. It does seem smarter to do them at the beginning, thanks P. :)
 
Today-

Dynamic warmup

V-ups 25/ alteranting supermans x 3

1) Snatch RI 30 sec
45- 1 x 2, 75- 1 x 2, 95- 1 x 2, 115- 1 x 2, 135- 1 x 2, 145- 1 x 2

2)a) Deadlift RI 60 sec
225- 1 x 5, 275- 1 x 5, 315- 1 x 5
b) DB bench press
90's- 1 x 5, 100's- 2 x 5 (hard)

90's- 1 x 5, 100's- 2 x 5 ( was dying on the last set)
b) DB rows
90- 1 x 5, 100- 2 x 5


Stretch


Destroyed. I liked doing the core/ stabilization movements at the end of my warmup. I felt strong on the snatches and deadlifts but the DB bench was a bitch. My pressing is still a weak point for me.
 
I would take what you are able to move over a shitty press anyday. Good job.
 
Thanks DOMS.
Locking out. But I have not been focussing on my bench- since my chest injury- I would rather have a bigger OH press anyway. Any tips for increasing my OH press?

Sorry, man, I don't have any tips for your OH Presses. I can't even do them anymore. :(

Well, you're already doing core-specific workouts, which is the only thing that I can think of.
 
How do you manage to do overhead squats then. :thinking: Do you think light rotator cuff work would help- or are your shoulders just plain fucked?

When doing OH Squats, my shoulders are static. When I initially put up the bar, I use momentum to put it up; which is something I would not do for a standard OH Press.

Rotor cuff work is always a good thing, but I have structural arthritis in my left should. Plus, my tendon may be pulling free of the bone in that same shoulder.
