Improving my vertical

I just BARELY missed 50" on an approach jump yesterday. Pretty bummed about that. Happy I hit a 49" jump but really thought I had the 51" that I had set up. Just couldn't stick the landing. Otherwise improvement seems to be moving right along. I think even my leg strength is improving very well despite everything Im trying to do lately.



Squat's felt good too. I switched to box squats because recovery is quicker and not as sore or tired the next day. Need my legs to function day to day so I can keep my fitness up and keep running for rugby. Once seasons over I'll be switching back to a 3 or 4 day squat program and get that depth back down. Mean time it's looking like once a week heavy squatting plus a dynamic power day. Top that off with 4 or 5 days of running plus game day and my legs will get plenty work.
