Puerto Rican, Filipino mix? Hey, me too!

You the man bro! Been following your progress for a few years crazy to see how far you come as a jumper.

I’ve been listening to your podcast all day. Kinda ironic cause I was literally JUST watching your “how to become an elastic jumper” video. I’m currently on a deload week and maxed my back squat at 505🏋🏾‍♂️

Great stuff dawg. How do you periodize strength training and Plyometrics/jump work.. if your training legs 2x a week with weights, when do you train plyo and jumping? I understand the block periodization being 4-6 weeks and having to Deload. Like I see you making good strength gains currently, but how often are you training jumps with the strength work? I see a lot of videos on periodization and the concept, but not breaking down how to format it throughout the week.

@IsaiahRivera1

Ай бұрын

If a cycle is plyo heavy we'll do plyos at the beginning of the workout 2-3 times per week, and then lift to maintain max strength qualities once a week, and then speed-strength focused lifts twice a week.

@@IsaiahRivera1 gotcha appreciate you bro.

do you have videos that go in depth about isometrics and specific types of isometrics?

Have you seen any jumpers or athletes have issues with shin splints? If so, what are your thoughts on recovery? I know you said rest is terrible for tendons, but in my case I’ve tried load management with minimal success, but I’ve never tried a long rest period. Would that be optimal, or would a focus on isometrics be better? What isometrics would you focus on?

When you do each cycle, are you moving into a different cycle completely after a month? E.g. hypertrophy 4 weeks, strength 4 weeks, power 4 weeks, speed 4 weeks. Or do you just swap up the workout within a larger cycle? E.g. Hypertrophy 12 weeks - focus on squats 4 weeks, focus on deadlifts 4 weeks, focus on front squats 4 weeks? Love the content.

what are your thoughts on jump balance? Do you recommend doing all 4 plants? just the opposite of my dominant?

Yeah my nutrition was terrible last year my vert was really high but I weighed 240 pounds I had ate like shit so now I have dropped back to 200 and I just started eating at maintenance and now I’m back to strength training.

I’m also 6’2 and wear a size 13 shoe and weigh 183- 186. I’m really long limbed and back squat is a 405 and deadlift is 405. I need to do more font squat for sure and hang clean my max is 205.

Is there an order for training cycles and how does it go?

Should I train both one foot jumps and two foot jump? With both left leg and right leg plants?

i have really bad jumpers knee should i go for PRP Treatment for my knee is it helpful?

Are the knees protected when doing these? Or will you walk with crutches at >50yo? No judgment its insane work ethic but genuinely curious of the effects in the long run. This looks safe to me but not sure

do you think bulgarian split squats translate just as well to my two foot jump as normal squats? I just like them way more and push my self really hard to get stronger

Isometrics are not a training stimulus they are a rehab tool. Definitely not a prehab tool. Cycles can be generally classified as hypertrophy strength power and speed; iso’s are not a cycle *except overcoming isometrics, those can be used in power/strength training

Lowkey tho, you already lost if you end up with this mentality. Not saying you wrong, but I was here at one point coz I had no progress, switched up my training n intensity, and as corny as it sounds, made it like a do or die type of thing, and finally broke past my plateau.

How much harder is it to dunk with shorter limbs? I’m 5’10” but with very short limbs

I can't do squat because my leg are way stronger than my low back and I don't have the patience to train it, so I do Hack Squat (400lbs 2-3 reps), one can say that there is no triple extension like regular squat (the back is still). Do you think the most important is just to get stronger and continue ramping up weight on the machine ?
