unbelievable mix, best mix i have seen in a long while.

same, myree is so impressive.. he has so much style in the air, plus his hops are elite level, then he crushes them rim with full aggression.. it's disgusting.

I wonder how many of you are able to do it:



I used to do it easily when I was a kid (~10 years old) but right now I'm sooo far away from doing it.

i've never been able to do that, not even as a kid.. bad flexibility/mobility from the getgo.

Andrew, I was going to start a new thread on this but I'm not sure it would develop any discussion, anyway...

I was just wandering, if all the resistance from your squatting came entirely from resistance bands (elastic energy), (no weight plates), could you see any potential gains from just using bands alone?.

if bands alone created significant tension at the bottom, then ya, you could expect significant gains.. if it doesn't, and becomes way more intense at the top, then you can only expect small gains.. for example, a light barbell loaded with short but resistive bands creating considerable tension at the bottom and as you go up, ya, that would cause gains.

Some of the pages on this site that are playin' up resistance bands for vert & speed have got me wandering : http://www.athleticquickness.com/page.asp?page_id=38


Does training with resistance bands make your muscles more elastic as the bands are more elastic in nature?. Elasticity being qualities that apply to vert & speed.

nope.. your muscles become more "elastic" doing activities such as reactive work/plyos/sprinting etc.. if resistance is large, it's always going to cause most of your adaptations to occur in the strength/hypertrophy realm instead of tendon/contract-relax realm.

the nature of the bands doesn't change much about how your muscles adapt, it's still just overcoming a slow intense stimulus, the only thing that becomes interesting is how your body reacts to the "change in gravity" feeling caused by the bands accelerating you downwards faster than gravity.. slow intense movements are going to target hypertrophy/raw strength the most, elastic qualities respond better to dynamic/ballistic work... bottom line, people need to do both, strength + sprint/jump/reactive.

pC man

What you reckon?.

Squat:
1 @ 100kg
  YAY!!! Finally got that 100kg regular squat! I know its stuff all compared to most but it's such a milestone for me. Man, so excited I got it! Was a huuuuuge grind though, almost died. My mind was trying to psych me out when I unracked it, so I just stood there for ages with it on my back until I knew I wasn't going to pussy out lol, was shaking like shit on my way up and re-racking it, all good though    That was 1.45x bodyweight, so close to 1.5x!!!

HUGE props man. Congrats.

x3 @!$!@$

Looking sick ^^^

thanks man!!
