    Well I ended up starting Tactical Barbell, it seems to be what I wanted, though I've only read the 2nd book, not the one actually dealing with weight lifting, so we'll see by week 5. :)

    Woops, my bad, the verticals are indeed where I touched the wall, not how high I jumped.
    My reach is about 93.
    So

    Standing vertical jumps: 111" - 93" = 18"
