Right. Very high RFD. And to think his vert wasn't that great when he started.(6'1" ish/couldn't dunk) Insane improvement and should be huge motivation for all on this forum!!!

I went in the park today with a guy that trained with me, played with me etc for so many years... and he was like "you don't bend AT ALL when you jump off two feet" and he said "I look like I have a ton of potential in my one leg jump still, because I look so "stiff" when jumping off one, but stiff in a bad way".

And he's right. It's good to see Jordan here and think about where I'm at now. But I'm 28 though.

I fully subscribe to what vag said.

Usually when you're going DOWN in terms of performance (not usually, ALWAYS) it's because of overtraining. There's not enough time to actually lose muscle mass that fast, so it's the CNS fatigue.

So if you're there, then you need to recover better.

If your squat is going up but your jumps are going down, then you're just not recovered well enough after the squat when you do the jumps, but you're not overtrained (since your squats are going up). If both are going down, then you're overtrained.

It's not scooby. He just took a picture from google images and covered the face so we won't know :trollface:

Sounds like tonsilitis to me. It will probably soon happen to me too due to the low water temperatures in my room.

The type of strength that entropy is describing is something called "general systemic strength". Which is basically the strength of the entire organism. When you get into people that have good general systemic strength, even when they're light, they're just "well made" and don't have weak points, and therefore they can balance and stay strong in every position/situation etc. It's basically a combination of good upperbody, core and lowerbody strength coupled with good mobility and no recruitment issues.

Do you always bench with your elbows going out to the sides like that? They should move under you, like in a dip.

I don't get what you say.
