As for the depth jumps, I think the only positive part on a depth jump onto a box vs a depth jump to touch something high is the diminished GCT for the on the box depth jump. Now that's shouldn't really be the focus of depth jumping, but it still is something you can use for some people.

Why do you think the GCT is lower for depth jumps onto boxes?

ya they definitely are lower than dj's for height, there was some data produced on this topic by Joel at TVS during his master's thesis.

Probably because you're even less reactive/you're not yet aware of how to use a shorter last step/you learned to reach out to the rim from basketball.

how do i use a shorter last step?

you just have to practice it, alot, using proper drilling.

STRETCH
- NOTES: big stretch of hamstrings/calfs needed!

winged the workout, as i left before u posted adarq.
luckily i didnt go too far off, tried to add abit of weight to the previous workout.

stepups were tough, maybe cos my legs are short or something.
when i had my foot on the step, my thigh was abt parallel to the floor.

good work man, sorry about that.. damn different side of the world thing strikes again, but you got it right pretty much. ill paste next one tomorrow when i wake up so you get it on time.

peace

The whole staff had these, everyone ended up with cuts on their Achilles.  Comfy shoes, meet the current minimalistic trend, but the cuts sucked.  We all ended up cutting off the back of the shoe    This made them wearable but they obviously failed a lot sooner than if we didn't modify them.

We all thought they had a ton of potential

weird.. i never had them dig into the achilles at all, even wearign very small socks.

look at the start with the post workout..has bedtime foam roll hot/cold showers!!

i personally believe cardio equipment is the biggest rip off in the world..running is better...but that is imo(please don't flame me all over the place i am gonna hit up another thread where you can do so)

well, it's not a rip off for them.. in team settings like that, it's usually necessary.. you can tell a guy to go do x speed on a treadmill for y minutes, and crap like that.. plus it's right there in the weight room, so it's convenient.

i prefer to do my cardio outside, for sure, but, when working with teams and groups of athletes, sometimes that cardio equipment is needed.

peace!
