Not sure if sarcasm...

But if sarcasm, then I have to say - it's too bad atg squats ruin your hips.

no i'm dead serious.. for me personally, i have no intention to ever play with natural ghr's again.. they've tweaked my tendons quite a few times.

here's a kind of long raw footage of me just shooting around and getting some light jumps/dunks in. These seem to help with recovery alot. I only did maybe 3 or 4 maximal effort jumps at the end the rest were kind of light easy jumps. It feels good to be dunking and just playing ball alot again. I like to do this every day and just call it basketball cardio. The video is kinda long because it's not really edited I only trimmed the beginning and end of the clip...

nice! those dunks looked effortless..

Adarqui might appreciate the waffle racers

SICK!!!

i didn't even notice, but I DID NOTICE that you were on your toes alot.. which is a biproduct of waffles.

what is your opinion of them? how do they feel?

man i love my waffle racers but i think i'm going to try and get back to dunking in basketball shoes this time around... just need to find some really good light ones.

i'll continue to wear them for pretty much everything else though. my current waffles are wrecked but still usable, those things are tanks.

edit: COME TO THINK OF IT, it may be really hard for me to dunk in basketball shoes.. i really do love how waffles feel when i jump.. and since im focusing on single leg now, they feel even nicer with single leg jumps so.. dno.

It seems my runup is very slow on camera, because I feel like i'm going pretty fast but the camera shows otherwise. Does any one know why or any good exercises or progressions to develop a faster run up and jump stop?

ya runup definitely didnt look blazing but you were also going light and taking short runups..

just remember if you work on runup speed, it's always a focus on a smooth acceleration, not just an all out burst of speed.. has to be rhythmic imo.

any comments or criticisms are welcome...

not sure what to criticize considering it was a light shoot around/light jumps etc..

everything looked pretty good, movements, jumpers, jumps, plant, runups, etc..

personally i would never take slow jumpers ever.. even in a relaxed workout.. i always focused on quick release, it seemed to really pay off.. i had such a fast release that i could pull J's on people in really tough defensive situations and i credit it to always focusing on making sure to maintain speed on the pullup & J.. if i was doing relaxed movements like you, it would be that speed except for the moment i decide to J..

i think that stuff helps.. when you look at a guy like tim hardaway or jeff hornacek (guys i grew up watching), their release was unbelievable.. could J in any situation & with the tightest defense on them.

dno, 2cents. ;0

peace man, nice vid.

What formula have you used for the lb to kg conversion in the code?

x / 2.2

If I enter my bodyweight in kg and put 150 at the full squat number I get 29.59 "cm" haha

What is lacking right now is a "cm" or "inch" thingy. For example at the desired vert it doesn't say if it's cm or inches. For the output thing it says cm but if you enter bodyweight and full squat max it displays the VJ in inches but says "cm" next to it.

i know i  told you i didn't add it.. :F

only kg/lb is needed because, if you enter your stuff in kg, it should automatically use cm's.. imo.

i'll fix the kg/cm thing today.. i didn'twant to mess with it at all last night.

peace

time to post my steak with side of steak combo.. these are 30oz each - porterhouse and chicago rib steaks. killed both. 3000+kcal.
no seasoning, just marbled aged. alfread's steak house in san francisco.  

my squat ratio went down after dinner..lol

damn that looks ridiculous... top notch restaurant i take it.

 

added the vert calculator tool icon.. lul.

the 'kg' button doesn't really work.. it just changes the result metric to 'kg' instead of 'lb'.. if anyone wants to look at it, tell me what to change in the formula.. i dont really even want to think about it.

i think the only issue is the 'desired' vert one.. but who knows, maybe they all ratio up.

just enter in bodyweight and then specify one of the 3 fields, it'll print a result.

want to work on that top comment thing instead.

Warm up with iyt and wall slides

LTNS.

hope everything is good man..

Things are going well.  Went through a year of hell, lost both parents and my dog

ya that's why i said what i said.. though i didn't know about your dog ;/

glad things are getting better though, i can't imagine a year like that.. we all wish nothing but the best for you man.

so i didn't have time for the internet stuff.  Took all my energy to work 

 The dust has settled though so I should be around a bit more.

nice, you're always more than welcome & your input is always appreciated.

peace man

  Cant really tell anything without an overhead angle/ fish eyes lens and slow mo/music edited in, birth certificate, social security card, and also get a muscle biopsy done. 

From first glance they look really good though. 




edit: its not mandatory, but if you can hook yourself up to a polygraph machine when squatting next time it will be easier to give proper feedback.

lmao

Guys is my depth ok?
