Article & Video Discussion / Re: Pain in high bar squatting
« on: March 10, 2012, 10:19:31 am »
Do you mean pain on your upper back?

Yes, the pain will completely vanish. I used to do 405 completely pain free.

What you should do every now and then to get used to the positioning, is keep ramping up the weight on the bar but don't squat; just unrack it and hold for 20sec sets. Go up to your 1RM and try to unrack that for 20sec. You will get very used to the weight.

You can do this every time you're in the gym. It doesn't have to be only on squat days. In fact, it doesn't even have to be on workout days. Even days where you're just playing basketball, try it out.

No, it is NOT. The ref actually smiles and pretty much says "good job" at 3:16.

Why it's OK for the refs to be bad at their jobs but for the coaches it isn't?

It's not the refs job to teach those guys how to actually play basketball and how to act on the floor. It is the coach's job to do that in practice and in the games. Coach allowed it to happen. Yes, the refs sucked by not doing anything about it in the actual game. But still, all on the coaches. They set the examples for these young players.

To quote Remember The Titans, "Action reflects leadership."

You're a fucking idiot.

what's his running vertical?

1594
All heavy lifts are slow lifts. Period.

Ok , that's where i exit this thread , cheers!

avishek, the'yre slow lifts, but that does NOT mean they cannot have a smililar effect to explosive lifts buddy.

1595
In the past month, my squat 1RM decreased by around 40lbs from going on a bounding/explosive phase (I did 265 below parallel, but probbaly cannot do 225 now). However my 10/20m sprints, bounds, and vertical jump, and broad jump have all seen PRs.

You probably just lost neural strength in the squat and not so much muscle strength.

Lmfao did avishek just reply to his own quote?

Nutrition & Supplementation / Re: Cheat days on a weight/fat loss diet
« on: March 06, 2012, 11:47:12 pm »
Your situation is impossible, that's why I had to change it.

Wait a second... it's impossible for two people to eat the same amount of calories and burn the same amount of calories as each other if only one of them lifts weights?
Again, please explain why the following is impossible:


Athlete A - Eats exactly 3k cals a day. Burns exactly 3k cals a day. Lifts heavy weights 3x a week.

Athlete B - Eats exactly 3k cals a day. Burns exactly 3k cals a day. Stopped lifting.



Now, if you mean it's impossible to get exactly the same calorie count down to x number of decimal places, then I understand you. Otherwise....notsureifsrs

also i have always trained with full front squats and i feel they go hard on my glutes as well as my quads.
dont feel much ham activity do

should supplement that with some RDL's. I've neglected my hams for years and now I'm hit with tendonitis. Sucks not jumping for over a month.

^^ Those look nice!

Been stuck with my Rogue Do-wins for about 2 years now. Got them a half size too small and never felt like sending them back.

You are too far to the right. (edit: you are the heavy resistance trained line). Jump squats <50%, cleans, and depth jumps/pogos/broadjumps for 3 weeks. Deload for 1wk if necessary. Full ROM deep jump squats with 60-80% to maintain strength in all ROM, box squats, and continued depth jumps for another 3 weeks after a deload. You'll go up a few inches.

asstarded, do not do this.

LOL i thought nothing was wrong... til i realized he was talking about jump squats





also,




atg jump squats  :ninja:

1602
also add a video of some jumps!

1603
Yeah most people on here do squats and deadlifts for oblique development.

i lol'd in real life haha

1604
When I was stricly a one legged jumper, squatting without single leg work took me very far.

Every 40lb increase in my squat gave me about a 1 inch increase in vertical. However, I was practicing my jumps very frequently.

And about the side bends... i doubt anybody here knows. You might be the only one on this forum doing them  :P

1605
Have you been practicing your jumps?

could you post a video of some of your jumps?
