Pics, Videos, & Links / RVJ and depth jump
« on: June 13, 2010, 10:44:56 am »

Made a new vid for RVJ form check. I also included a set of depth jumps from 18 inch box at the end. The jumps are really low, like 22 inches or so.. Didn't tape a normal svj, but it's a little bit higher, like 24 inches (I once got 27 or so on a day I was really psyched up, but normally it's always like 24 inches). I'm squatting around 1.8-1.9 BW now, so it seems very low to me... And there's really a big difference between SVJ and RVJ.

Anyway, here's the vid: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6kJnT-ZPwVo (Something went wrong with rendering I think, the actual vid is like 2 minutes, after that it's just a black screen  )

You mean at the end, the lockout?

Made a new vid, on TVS they asked to make one with heels elevated: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D26BhVPvLdk

The angle is very bad, but the batteries of my camera were low so I had to take the adapter and this was the only place I could put it... and I just squatted without bar so I don't know if you can compare it that well with yesterday's vid.. I'll make a better one tomorrow or so.

You can't see my feet but I mentioned it in the vid when my heels were elevated. I also tried to flex my ankles more (=> bringing knees more forward) and that alone was already an improvement, so it's not that I lack that much ankle mobility, it's just that I don't use it while squatting.. (Well I maybe need some more flexibility but it already got better when I just thought about flexing )
I also could tighten my glutes WAY better when flexing the ankles more. So maybe this was one of the bigger issues in my form.. I'll still keep on doing the hamstring stretching etc, I think that'd improve my form also.

Yeah yeah I know about the socks, normally I always wear socks but it was really hot today here in Belgium and I wore flip flops, so i forgot socks. As for the arch, I really have to put alot of effort in keeping it like that, if I don't think about it my feet collapse inwards, but I just try to keep it like that as much as possible:)

I'm doing a lot of glute work etc, but I still can't really tighten my butt when squatting, I don't know why ... I'l try to use your tip matty.

I brought my camera to the gym today, so here's the squat vid: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v6KrIR5i8g0

I knew I had lower back rounding, and I'm really working on hamstring flexibility (stretch, good mornings,...), glute activation, hip flexor stretching etc, but I need much more flexibility I think... Makes me scary to squat with higher weight, even though I never have any lower back pain... Oh and in the set with bar only I was looking to the side because there's a mirror there:P

This is the RDL vid:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y-Mk8mBu8Ug

With the 100 kgs, certainly wasn't good at the last two reps, but I'm sure there are other things that aren't good...
