Yes, you would, but there's a reason why you don't swing it faster - your body needs to have the same "groove" throughout.

You can't just swing faster and have the legs push at the same slow speed. You also can't push very fast and swing slowly.

So there's a reason your body chooses to have the armswing that you currently have.

That's why you do the 2-leg bounds for LENGTH and SPEED.

The length ones subject you with greater forces, while the speed ones subject you with greater speeds - so you can get, over time, better at higher speed plants.

Combine that with practicing jumping and you'll be the best version YOU can be.

Some people jump with a very high speed because they structure allows them to do that.

I think the clean number is 1.5x according to what I've been reading in VJB 2.

Yeah I've watched a bunch of reviews on youtube but they're usually the shitty "oh this looks cool here and this material is whatever and this and that" with nothing performance related other than if it slips or not and stuff like that (not how it bends, where etc).

Have you ever jumped in Venomenons 4? I'm about to order them today since I can't really find good enough running shoes... but I'm afraid that they will suck for me yet again (and at a high price).

Nightfly jumped ~44 inches in Venomenons 3.

I think the bigger the difference between your squat and your (power) clean, the more quad dominant your squat is.

It's more like a test of how much quad dominant you are in your squat (other than all the other obvious parameters like the explosive strength deficit etc).
