i had this dream that i was chilling with adarqui in florida. we were doing squats in his kitchen and he kept talking about his stir fry. then we talked about basketball and the worldcup. i remember being happy that i wasnt on irc
Andrew, can you give me a typical week breakdown of your training like what you do and how many times you train? Seen a few of your videos and you can definitely get up!
With little kids, it helps that they weigh like 40 pounds. I think it was Lyle who pointed out that most 7-year-old girl gymnasts can embarrass the shit out of most well-trained adult men in bodyweight strength stuff.
well ya for sure that helps but when i was that young, if could barely do pushups HEH! didn't even know what a pullup was... so yea these kids definitely have an edge with training like this at a young age, i really do love this kind of training for young kids, properly implemented of course, without a TON of intense landings.. moderate gymnastics/bodyweight training at a young age has very impressive results down the road, wish i had done that stuff when i was young.
i found a vert of some really young gymnastics girl it looked near 20, she must have been about 8 years old, i think i linked it on here.. was very impressive.. all of the boys i tested during camps at memorial sportscenter, you'd be extremely lucky to get a 12 inch vert at age 8 ehehe.
peace
i had a 14 svj... at 15yrs old!!
ya exactly, you would have been on the lower end of performance on kids i test at 15.. for 15, kids were getting 18-26.. had a few 26+ (26,27,29.5) etc, those kids were extremely explosive though..
my SVJ was probably around that low at 15 though too, it was pretty horrible HEH.
based on watching/ playing in aau games,i find that the genetic freaks are not significantly higher jumpers than the white boys at 12-14 yrs old. however, there is a huge difference between running form and speed between freaks and non freaks. in hs, 15-18, the diff in jumping between genetic freaks and normals becomes VERY obvious. wat have u tested/ noticed?
you doing any stretching foam rolling etc?
As suspected , rim is not 10'
Dunkfather took part in that event , he uploaded a video.
He is 5'9'' , and claims 7'5'' reach and 42'' RVJ , wich i find legit having seen many many vids of him , he does get about 12'' above legit indoor 10' rims at his best jumps.
Here's the screenshot from his highest jump in urban jam :
He needs 51'' to get head at rim , so if that rim was 10' he got 47-48 on that???
Rim must be like 9'9'' or so!
NOT hating on JusFly though, getting neck at rim , over 6'10'' guy , doing a BTL at the same time AND landing the dunk is still beyond sick...
Its just in the 50 area , not 55...
