ADARQ & LanceSTS - Q&A / Re: Backward depth drops

What about backward downhill "walks" or basically eccentric calf raising walks? Ever tried such a thing? Less intense but much more TUT and almost no rest in between reps.

Another option would probably be doing what I was actually doing that got me that hard soreness in the first place - eccentric oriented step-ups :uhhhfacepalm:

dno, i think the backward downhill walks might be overkill..

i've done some backwards downhill stuff on a huge speed ramp when i was at MSC, seemed more trouble than it was worth.. downhill sprints were fun though.. no idea how effective, incline was probably too big.

Damn, wtf do you do to get that "insane calf soreness", I swear I never get that. Probably they do respond best to high volume stuff and I never do high volume stuff.

i havn't done any jumps in a year.... HEH

when i was in peak physio, i never could jog mid-foot without getting rape-level soreness.... so that's the only thing that i've never been able to conquer.. i've had soreness so bad from mid-foot jogging that i wouldn't be able to walk properly for a week.

soreness: insane, calves especially



didn't do anything yesterday.. that single leg stuff i did wrecked me.

oh btw, something i did that day was.. hit a decent pace while jogging, then transition into a single leg jump.. this actually was pretty interesting.. nice way to work on speed.. going to keep messing with that.. that's probably what killed me.

fell asleep while making mods to the site.. just woke up and fixed the 'reply border' that lbss talked about.

added 'lightbox popup' for images and a little img hover border thing so people know you can click them..

ideally i want the lightbox popup to have an 'innerzoom', so whatever picture you click to popup, you can move your mouse around inside of it and it auto zooms in..

im adding that because i want raptor and company to be able to zoom in nicely to whatever they choose when viewing pictures in the 2sexy4u forum

also it would be kind of cool to be able to zoom in so easy to vert/dunk pics, lifting pics etc..

i had it working somewhat last night BUT, i need to approach it differently.. wasn't working too well with lightbox.

What are your experiences with backward depth drops for calf development?

I'm asking this because I observed something very interesting when I was doing step-ups: I wasn't too tired anywhere because of them but the one place I had HUGE soreness was the calves. Basically every time I put my leg back down from the step-up box I was doing an eccentric calf raise. I didn't feel it at the time but after I finished my sets my calves were fried. Never experienced any kind of calf soreness like the one that occured after those step-ups.

So I was thinking - shouldn't doing backwards stiff leg depth drops help quite a bit on calf training? The TUT would be pretty short with the possible downside of too many landings/landing stress, but as far as the amount of "weight" in that eccentric part - you can't replicate that in the weight room - too much for the back, at least for mine's. Plus you never really do backwards stuff often so they should take that as an "unusual" stress and adapt better to it than to regular calf raises etc.

Any opinions?

real quick reply because I have to go out:

I prefer backward drops, definitely hits my ankles/lower leg so much harder.. I usually feel alot 'stiffer' when performing backwards drops as opposed to forwards, no comparison.

backwards stiff leg drops are 'promoted' by WGF.. I usually just did backwards squat drops with a little forward lean.

the backward stiff leg drops (from lower box heights) sound like a good idea to me.

when you click "reply," the thread as it shows up below the text entry box has no line or other marker between posts. makes it hard to tell without looking closely where one post stops and another starts.

coo thanks, didn't realize my color mods faded that line out so much..

will fix later.

peace

How come besides the speed being a lot faster, none of the other visual changes have happened to me?

clear history/cache maybe.. dont clear cookies/logins.

should reset

http://www.boxingnews24.com/2012/09/sergio-martinez-suffers-broken-hand-and-torn-ligaments-in-win-over-chavez-jr/

did you know that? nuts.. broken hand in 4th and torn ligaments in knee during the knockdown..

unbelievable tho that he was able to dominate chavez jr with that broken hand only 4 rounds in.


 :o wtf, that is crazy, he truly deserved that victory over chavez and especially at his age, which chavez refers as an old man lol took chavez to school



ya that makes the ass whooping he took for 11 rounds even more impressive..

38 year old beating down a youngin' in his prime, for 11 rounds, with a broken hand after 4.

The ESPN ticker was annoying for me because I could see NBA scores... and I watch NBA games off torrents and/or NBA League Pass recorded games so I don't wanna see the score.

When I was browsing adarq.org before and the ESPN ticker was there I had to be really careful not to peek and see the scores.

hah should have told me.. i figured it might be of use for some people, bet i figured wrong tho.. i doubt anyone would look at it.. had no problem removing it, looks way better without it.
