I by no means am an expert but I do know what seems to have helped me. Last fall I was grinding out reps and lifting 'heavy' and I noticed some improvement in my SVJ but my RVJ (in particular my plant speed) really suffered. Since I lowered the weight a little and have focused on lifting faster (in both lift phases) my RVJ and plant speed have vastly improved and I've seen small improvement in my SVJ. The resistance bands I use currently help I'm sure as they force me down into the squat much quicker and make me finish reps instead of letting momentum take over.
Just my 2 cents.

(Sorry for posting this on your journal. I just remember Raptor saying the quote I used above and thought it would be relevant to post it here. Besides the majority of users are linked to and read your journal haha.)
So the teather exists in real life?
dream:
our other brother, the middle one, has also had a kind of recurring dream recently in which our little brother is dead, although his are quite different and involve being at family gatherings where everyone is the same except little brother, who is some younger version of himself. for example, a few months ago he dreamt that we were all at my step-grandmother's house for christmas, which we are every year. the whole extended family is there except j, which has also become normal over the last 8 years or so. he's often unable to travel. L, my middle brother, is in the living room and the front door opens. 10-year-old j is standing there, not saying anything. (he's 22 in real life.) he's not dressed for the winter. L knows that this means j is dead. he lies down on the floor, on his back, and cries.
Congrats man on the 2x bw squat and also the running time for the first 10m, beast man.
you have more chances of being the first asian under 10s then me.
a challenge i accept.
Then it must be that the hip flexors, hamstrings and possibly tibialis anterior (to a lesser degree) could be culprits in this equation. If that's the case, if I were LBSS (I might implement this regardless in my training) I would do 1 set of supine psoas leg raises (with cables), leg curls and toe raises at the end of each and every workout.
I actually do straight-leg locked knees deadlifts.
