USA played really well for a sport they don't really focus on. I was impressed.

Very nice man.

So how many jumps (bounds) did it take you to cover 20 meters in the 2-leg bounds for length?

The next time you do the bounds do the PR bounds attempts (we are cycling the 20m with the PR bounding). I got 11.0 meters on 4 bounds the last time I did them, so you could compare to what I got.

So the next time I go to do them, I put a cone at 11.0 meters and try to beat that PR. I actually put two cones: one for that particular day's PR and the other for the all time PR.

If my day PR gets or is 5% less than the all time PR, then it must mean I'm overtrained.

Say your all time PR is 10 meters. 5% of 10 meters is 50 cm. If you can't get to 9.50m on each of your reps (4 consecutive bounds) then you're overtrained and you should stop and get better recovery. Do the workout some other day.

I've had a friend who was quad dominant and would describe jumping off one leg as "losing himself in the air"... he then developed ankle injuries and knee injuries in the end.

Usually, quad dominant people will eventually develop knee injuries because of that overload again and again and again of the knees traveling forward on each jump.

Hip dominant guys might get back injuries if they start hyperextending at the back, probably.

Because it depends less on strength and more on structure, bodyweight and non-contractile elements. If you're quad dominant and you bump up quad strength even more, then it's even worse, despite the strength gain.

Damn.

You're basically light years ahead of me, and I've been training consistently in the last 7 years.
