So we have this:

Squat: 375
Deadlift: 355
Hip thrust: 395

What is your bodyweight?

Not bad. Why don't you try some two handed jumps, and try some left handed dribbles on your approach. It will be very difficult initially (as it is for me) but you'll start to see benefits soon enough.

Were those benches adjusted to the person's height? I guess not.

By the way - he was also more quad dominant than the others. :ibsquatting:

Plus, it depends what vag means by being on the heavier side.

If he means being at 85 kg with 9% bodyfat, then I'm 100% with him.
If he means being at 85 kg with 18% bodyfat, then why the heck would you want to be there? Just so you say "I'm heavier and harder to push around and a Mark Rippetoe prototype MAN"?

Yeah. Consider this, vag started from 90kg. Has cut to 85kg (i know he's currently low 80s but that's not important for this argument). Is he now athletic at 85kg? Is he lean? Nope. So suppose he bulks from 85kg up to 90kg - he gains some strength and he thinks some muscle. But since he started above 15% now he's would being in the 20%s again. So he cuts back to 85kg and is he suddenly 10%? Nope. So that's the problem with cutting down to a bodyweight that isn't quite lean - it means any bulks will go inefficiently from there and you're effectively just spinning wheels.

But consider vag instead cuts to a legit 10% - maybe for him that means having a bodyweight of 75kg. He bulks up to 85kg. Now he's not lean anymore but, he's definitely holding MORE muscle mass at 85kg than he was cutting from 90kg (even if he'd bulked to 90kg from having cut to 85kg first).

Couldn't have said it any better.

So for athleticism, the thing is - go to a lower than "optimal" bodyfat (say 7-8%) and then bulk up and you'll end up an athletic 10-11%.

I like that once he gets that positive shin angle the actual power comes from the hips at the end, before the triple extension occurs. What I mean by that is you can clearly see that originating at the hips, whereas in lesser guys (me) there's really a triple extension overall, with no obvious power point.

Well yeah, we would all like to be LeBron, but you gotta see what your structure works best at. Like Adarqui said back in the day - he once went to the heavy side but felt bad and moved bad, and his structure is made to be light.
