what kind of shoes do you wear?

How far do you point your feet out and why?

Did u always squat with this technique?

How long has VJ been your goal?


Sorry for all the questions!

true that adarq, same thing i just said in my journal

Point being, IMO most people that do nothing besides lift and the low volume power oriented jump work will be in trouble without some kind of general fitness work (pickup,cardio,dribbling,walking,swimming,anything). The heart is the most important muscle.  Low work capacity not good for vert training or life in general(neither is being overweight)..

Perform lowest effective volume of competitive exercise at gradually increased intensity in order to maintain techniqueGradual intensification of competition exercises while giving load volume priority to general specific liftsRealization of motor potential via competition exercises performed at near maximal to maximal intensity or pre-comp intensities proven to yield highest resultsCompetition exercises


so while you may do anything you want, and it may in fact even yield positive results for a while, this does not suggest that the methodology is optimal or that it is beyond further improvement.  ''

adarq, isnt that what periodization basically is

172
I agree and its what ive been saying all along, no squat is the holy grail, pick a variation and get strong :strong:


173
Just out of curiosity, anyone have idea of those that have achieved elite(37+) via mainyl low bar vs highbar

High bar
kingfish
rip?

low bar
uh?

174
true  undecided between the VII and the cheaper VI...

175
do these run the same size/fit the same as regular nike shoes?

also are the Nike Zoom Waffle XC VII the same as the nike zoom waffle racers VI? (or maybe more improved?)

176
what is a potty squat?

**Forgot landon evans great stuff on elitefts. Also forgot Alex V=beast and i guess that kelly guy knows stuff too

soo in no particular order, everyone that aspires to training themselves and train for sports or a particular sport athlete, ready as much as you can from-

James Smith,
Tom mylinski,
Landon Evans
Charlie Francis,
Buddy Morris
Alex V
Kelly B
and more..

To develop a 40+ inch running vertical jump, and to learn how to dress during training sessions, among other things, ask adarq


Anyways, good posts and good thread.  Very good points Alex.  How do you personally squat now?  how do you coach your athletes to squat?

178
Right, so to lift the most weight max weigh listen to guys like ripptoe and westside

to jump the highest, sprint the fastest, or become overall better athletes, along with balancing the demands of becoming  better sportmen, listen to James Smith, Tom mylinski, Charlie Francis, Buddy Morris, etc.


For everything in life, listen to Adarq

Ive actually seen damn good athletes who struggle with proper squat technique and clean as well..

Anyways, gonna leave it as it is.  Squat how you do and ill squat how ill do.  I nor any athlete need to squat below parallel and vice versa.  Again, im not talking about squatting quarter squats, i mean i favor thigh parallel squats for the majority of my training IE powerlifting depth(lower than half squat). And you obviously prefer deeper, so be it to each his own.

also, are you a big RIPPTOE guy?  JW, like some of his vids, just cant get him over saying that VJ cant be improved.
