Flash's Project: 45'' Vert, 315 Bench, 405 Squat & Stay Healthy

Yeah, I’d love to give cleans a try, but my university gym jumps on your ass if you do anything they see as an Oly Lift, even power variations, they say it’s bound to ruin the weights. Maybe during the summer, when I’m at my gym with a platform and bumper plates, I’ll give them a shot. And I LOVE HFS. Lifting has never come easy to me, and in my time training, haven’t made a lot of progress. Doing this program, is not only the most fun I’ve had lifting, but has kind of ‘taught’ me how to lift. FOr the first time ever, I’m semi-explosive, which is crazy too me. lol

Yeah, I always wished I had been short growing up, and been taught to be a point THEN gotten my growth spurt. Sadly, I was always taller then average, so I got taught post moves and was told to NEVER dribble. Now in college, at 6’2", the post players I end up going against are like 6’5-9", so I wish had been taught to be a guard early on. lol.

Do your injuries prevent you from playing too often, just due to the pain?? Or like are you just not suppose to be playing a lot in order to not re-injure yourself? Here’s the link to my log. I’m horribly weak, so sorry for the non-impressive numbers, but they are creeping up slowly.
