I can't do dips after a chest work out =p

I had labs and homework so I didn't go to the gym on monday and I slept in for today :(.
 
I didn't feel very energetic today, probably cause of lack of sleep so I only did 6x6 squats.

LEGS

6x6 squats (35,45,45,45,45,45lbs)
 
Ah didn't work out last week rly, cuz I wanted to stay in and study. Now I'm not even going to bring my bag with my ball shoes/ball! just the workout gloves!

I did chest yesterday right before it closed and didn't make it in time for triceps

4x8 flat bench (45,45,45,45lbs)
4x8 incline bench (35,35,35,35lbs; dumbbells)
3x12 decline bench (35,35,35; dumbbells)
3x12 pec machine? (50,50,50lbs;machine)
 
I'm better at basketball, but strength has gone up a bit but not much. It's probably because of my inconsistency, if I keep going more regularly it should get back on track.

I worked out 2 days ago for shoulders/tricep.

4x8 shoulder press (25,25,25,25lbs;dumbbell)
4x8 lat pulldown behind back (60,70,80,90lbs; machine)

Okay I've been on hiatus because I had a basketball tournament. My friend was talking to me last week and he reminded me of an old program, vertical jump bible, and said "if you were doing this you could dunk by now". I realized he was probably right, I have not been making much progress so I decided to try and workout for real this time. I have composed a 3 week program that will last until August 17.

It's basically Monday is legs, Tuesday is bball skills, wednesday is pylos + chest/triceps, thursday is bball skills, friday is back, saturday is shoulder/bicep.

I'll actually record the weights I do on paper and try to progressively get stronger each and every week. Wish me luck, I'll be starting tomorrow.
 
First day of VJB (Vertical jump bible).

Today was a leg workout:

Squat 3x10 (125,115,115lbs) including bar weight(assuming its 45lbs)
Leg curls 4x8 (60lbs~~ on all sets)
Calf Raise 3x20 (125lbs on all sets)

I also did a brief 10-15 minute shoot around in bball after my workout. On my squats, during my last few reps I was really struggling and I forced myself to go low and then I exploded upwards through the movement but I caused some kind of weird pain in my head.
 
I know bball isn't working out but I'd like to mention it anyways. Went out this morning and shot around for about an hour and a half making 130+ shots. My ankle hurt a little bit and my elbow started feeling it. I'll try a few more shooting sessions of making 100+ shots before i reconsider lowering the volume so I don't get tendinitis in my elbow.
 
Today was chest/tricep and pylos:

Bench flat 3x6 (145lbs~) *assuming bar is 45
Bench Incline 3x8 (45lbs dumbbells)
Dips 2x (10,11 bodyweight)
Overhead tricep extension 2x8 (40lbs~)

Then after that I did a bunch of pylos, man it was so tiring.
 
Good to see you are putting your weights properly now!
