welcome to the forum man, i liked the new vid, the windmills were sick & that jump at the beginning was very impressive.. like we talked about in that other thread, would be interesting to see some max height tomohawk/windmill/power dunks from lob, i'm guessing you could land some ridiculous footage off lob.

you doing anything other than basketball/dunking/jumping for your vert?

pc

for a lil bit i just did basketball/dunking/jumping(and abs), gained like 3 inches that way and finally got my elbow up at the rim. but now i'm doing on a training program doing squats and plyosso i can get my elbow 2 or 3 inches over the rim.

nice!

LBSS, you hear about this book through defranco? He often remarks how all the stretching techniques he learned were from the Fredricks.

Adarq, have you ever tried the rectoris femoris/psoas stretch kelly baggett recommends?

this? <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s_hQSJVIN3c" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s_hQSJVIN3c</a>

nope.

i've done something on a bed, kinda similar, but i havn't been stretching alot lately.

he's definitely beast, love his vids.. his old single leg dunking video is insane, one of my fav vids of all time.. ill link it tomorrow if i remember, love the music in it too.. it's like he's not even the same person, skinny/mad powerful single leg jumper back then, now he's huge double leg jumper/strength athlete.

Note the props to Adarq in the last video's description.

awesome glad you pointed that out.. pretty cool.. just glad i pointed him in a good direction and away from the spoon-bending bullshit artists.

he knows what to do though, he's dedicated.

heh.  a friend on facebook linked that.  you gotta have so much discipline to eat so little junk food though...  that's way too much temptation to have around at the house.

i dno, most americans can eat like that easily... you underestimate the unhealthyness of the USA.

uhh, experienced it first hand.  i was at 190lbs (2007-8) thanks to all the cheap and easily available junk food at the super market and fast food places.  the system definitely works against you.  i remember reading about (poorer) families eating dollar menu because it is cheap and convenient.  at least in taiwan (and most asian countries) one you can decently healthy cheap fast foods.

when i was crazy poor like 8-9 months ago, i dollar menu'd, worst i ever felt in my life.

hehehe

sick dunk, but damn, look at how low his head is and how high his hand is over the rim.. man that reach is nuts, i get my head higher than that on my best jumps and my hand is nowhere near that high.. pretty cool
