Dryland/Weight Room Progress

Posted by Kevin Doak on Friday at: 6:34pm (October 21st, 2011)

I'm starting to see my weight room and dryland progress recently.  Today I achieved my best performances in nearly everything we measure (on this day of weights):

Lat Pull Down: 190lbs (3 reps)
Incline Bench: 180lbs (4 reps)
Leg Press: 350lbs (4 reps) 
Dumbell Curls: 50lbs per arm (4 reps)
Tricept Extension: 165lbs (4 reps) 

And to top it all off, when I started this program I could barely do a single jump pushup (normal pushup and both hands and feet leave the ground at the top).  Now I do multiple sets of 10 jump pushups in a row, however, these jump pushups, my hands and feet leave the ground and I go into a full streamline position.  Other variations are when I touch my knee with a single hand or both hands to both knees.  The version I haven't mastered yet is the 180 degree spin pushup jump.  It's basically a pushup where you go airborne, you spin in mid air and your feet land where your hands started.  I can only get about 150 degrees so far.  Check out the video of a teammate doing one.
