how is anyone meant to be a certain weight??

bone structure, genetics, etc.. i could eat the same as someone else my height, but they have more favorable genetics for putting on mass etc, and i'd be 147 they'd look like a 185-205 beast etc.. i'd imagine my issue is 'myostatin' related, like if i really had someone dissect my dna.. right now i'm eating light/clean, which is still alot, but once im 145 or so i'd be able to eat massive amounts of food without gaining any weight, that's how it was growing up (16-24) or so, before i went through crazy bulk (lower activity, insane amounts of peanutbutter/bread/milk etc).

145 lbs???!!!

andrew man...

you want to be kadour ziani?!!

i think thats his weight class...

ya kinda... haha.. kadour/combest, extremely light, extremely strong/powerful, jump very high :d

i'm getting as light as possible because i'm MEANT to be such a low weight... everything i do to go above 145-150 is a "challenge", it's out of the norm.. but i kept at it for 2 years so i went high above my normal weight, i reached 180 last year during high rep squatting etc.. then went back down to 165-170 so fast..

so ya, im just becoming my 'natural weight'



peace man

welcome back

Well, they are useful up to a certain extent, nearly as useful as repeated standing vertical jumps, but with less of a training effect due to the encouragement of incomplete hip extension to hurry and pull the feet up, and the extremely low eccentric landing forces.  You can watch video after video of people performing high box jumps, and more times than not, they are pulling the knees up before they reach complete triple extension.  But if someone were to want to work on rfd with low impact forces, teach landing skills at a low level, etc. they can be beneficial.  They are not a valid test of jumping ability in any way, and very low eccentric forces involved make them a lower intensity training technique.  

  The issue I have with box jumps is when people are jumping on extremely high boxes, believing they are training their jumping ability, when in reality they could cut the box height in half, step off it and do a depth jump, and get 100000000000 times the training effect they are looking for.

woop.

no one in your entire park can dunk? i thought you were in florida, where speed and vertical are everywhere. Here in Indiana, where slow white kids rule the land, have atleast 2 dunkers every crowded park i go. (three if you add me hehe)

the only video of people dunking at that park is that 6'4 white kid in that video with the 360 layup.. none of those guys dunked, in game, or after the games, they tried but failed, if someone had landed a dunk it would be in the video.

here's an example, at la fitness, a court i've landed a bunch of dunks at, i was injured but making a video with eddie, then this kid "JP" who worked there came out and started throwing down, i made him his own mix..

it's saying error right now i can't view it, but that's some random kid i put out a mix for..

here's one from way back, some kid dunked, i put it in vide, check 27s, "some kid": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t23f2Y8valI

^^ going back to private in like 15minutes


here's me dunking with eddie on the same court in my last video, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vG2uo2nj3E0

bottom line, if someone dunks at these courts i'm out dunking at, it's going in the video..
