Got vanilla and that was a mistake....taste is too plain to kill of the horrid after taste of protein ish

strawberry was my weapon of choice till recently, I just got sick of the same stuff...am trying cookies now, it's allright about = to the strawberry

Oh, and don't use water for the ish..Idk why i was dumb enough to do water with the ish, but it was terrible and lowers protein from milk  :uhhhfacepalm:



Dude, every brand tastes different! We have some very good tasting brands here in Germany, even with water it tastes great!

On Whey Gold Double Rich Chocolate tastes disgusting imho...

Thanks brosephines.

@Divad: soreness is no reason at all to change depth, IMO.

Andrew disagrees with me on this, but I think you should squat to the fullest extent allowed by your structure and mobility. If you're really tall or have shitty hip mobility, you shouldn't be going deep. But if you're normal sized then increasing ROM can only help over time.

basically the same height, eh? damien sits back so much more.

+1

Much better hip load for Damienz, but it was expected from Adarqui to be extremely quad dominant on these.

I just feel like if adarqui would learn to gather his hips better, plant forwards more etc and make that adjustment, he'd jump so much higher... (I'm sure he's going to disagree)

exactly! Raptor, that's what we were talking about on one of my youtube videos - just getting my hamstrings and glutes more involved will make much stronger/jump higher.

Beyond any of that, half squatting (slightly above parallel, NOT PARALLEL) is 100x more specific to vert/power based athletic movements than is deep squatting.

Isn't weighttraining always just GPP for the non weightlifter-athlete?
At the end it shouldn't matter how the strength was obtained...

so then why would it matter if strength is obtained in a deep squat vs half squat?

goodnight

deep squats seem to be healthier, less risky and more bang for your buck than half squats. you're always talking about your onees, hips and spinal compression. full squat is actually good for your knees, could gradually increase hip mobility (good hip mobility = healthier lower back) and as u can't take as much weight on a half squat there's less spinal compression.

it's funny that you feel attacked by me posting those articles!
i just saw them in a blog from bret contreras and i thought it was interesting to read what is going on in a deep squat.
i just posted them here for a discussion and not to attack you or anybody else to defend why they don't squat deep...

but still, do like boevski :ibsquatting:

Who said I am? The fat thing will resolve by eliminating sugars and going into sprints etc, and right now I'm downloading some Pavel Tsatsouline "Loaded Stretching" video... will see what it does.

But my flexibility is decent enough. There are some areas that are really lacking but... (like the hip flexors/abs and upperbody stuff, Kelly said something about them but I don't remember exactly what was the culprit - I always hurt in my abs when I jump off two feet, on my right side)

Loaded Stretching is unnecessary imho and there's lots of free info out there. http://www.youtube.com/user/sanfranciscocrossfit is one of the best resources for mobility/flexibility!

I just hate mobility work, stretching I hate it from the bottom of my heart. It's like I'm a retarded women in a pink compression short doing aerobics and counting 1-2-3-4 while stretching. I mean wtf? I hate it. I HATE IT.

Brr... just thinking about it makes me shiver.

And even if I wasn't hating that, I can't think of a good mobility routine/I find that useless. So...

okay, so you're going to be fat and stiff forever...
