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.

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 2 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.

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?

How does your cycle ( hypertrophy, isometrics, etc.) works? When do you have to train isometrics for example?

@hanjiplayer 2 ай бұрын

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

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 ?

Well that’s where you’re messing up. You think you’ll be impatient to fix imbalances but patient enough to go through the training it takes to dunk?

Closer to the Chief Cornerstone of Stone Mountain and two feet jumping leads to Dominique Wilkins of Jordan era. But to think that the Great Lakes and River are words to describe migration for Icosahedron Professionals like Isaiah is something that i must be willing to wage...
