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 

I wonder what Kingfish could do on roids

imagine if he started squatting at 15 years old and then grew through puberty while squatting and surging with testosterone... he'd easily be at 3x bw at 30 years old like nothing. Probably max out at a 45" standing vertical.

And aren't you almost 30 years old? When did you start squatting?



Go on ANY bodybuilding forum and everyone there will tell you you can't squat 2.6x your bodyweight starting at such a late age (24?) and low weight... lol yeah okay.

Shoes with sub-optimal traction is a HUGE pet peeve for me.

I need the best of the best. I can't stand slipping even a little bit.



I already have the VJB 1, but I'm curious what new things 2.0 has in store.

I, too, find it funny why the English called it soccer as well.






 

Look, I don't know much about this, or anything, but I've been told when you have high water retention, you need to drink a lot of water to get the water weight out...

And you believed that?

First of all, it's taking a piss and/or sweating that takes the water out of your body. Drinking water again after that will just replace what water you got rid of. If you want to lose a net amount of water, you'll have to drink LESS after that.

Something along the lines of, when the body is being fed a lot of water, it will stop holding onto water because it knows it's getting enough now..

Yes, your body will eventually stop holding extra water because it can only hold so much.
If a bucket of water is filled to the top, the bucket won't hold extra water if you pour more into it.

I don't know, it doesn't make much sense to me, but all I know is, when I'm out drinking the night away, the next day I'm pretty much ALWAYS 3-5lbs heavier...  I don't understand this..

The only way I can resolve this is this:
You probably didn't drink that much, but what you DID do, was have a lot of carbs and salty stuff and then drank a crap load of water throughout the night so you're holding more water weight and you also didn't piss or sweat enough throughout the night.

I think you might have something wrong with your brain. Why are you trying to be all cyberbully on me. Do you really think anyone cares about you. You talk to people like they are trash. Why would you want to come off like that. Does it make you feel tough? Are you trying to make up for having a small smelly dick? You need to see a shrink. Have fun going through life wondering why people don't like you. I'll give you a hint though, you try to make others feel like shit. But you have failed on me. I know what you are. See, the thing is, I'm a nice guy. You on the other hand can't control your stupidity. You really don't even realize that you are a jerk ,do you? When you're older maybe you can look back on times like this and see that you where unnecessarily rude to people you don't know. Right now you think you are being clever and it is just a fun time. Keep treating people like you do and see where you end up. You can not compete with my intellect so I warn you to give up before you embarrass yourself further..

I love bodybuilding forums. Misc section is hilarious.

Trick #3 Use Squats For Delayed Potentiation

maybe my squat before speed workout is not a bad idea after all. been doing it that way all this time. my self-reason for doing it is the effective "warmup" i get when i feel all the big muscles in my legs have fired already.

i don't do piston type continuous tension - bodybuilding reps where the whole set feels like a one big long rep. i'm more like 3sec on, 2sec off, repeat.. thats one set. could be the reason i dont tire much even with heavy weights.

How long do you wait after the squats though? Article mentions 4-6 hours. I didn't know that the legs can stay fired up for that long.
