Yeah, and if you scroll the side bar you will "click" on whatever it is under the scroll bar (if you click and drag). Back a few days ago that wasn't the case (this sucks).

Nah, the best sprinters don't let their leg fly back behind them. They do the leg curling action pretty much under them, not behind them. It's that thing with "imagine it's a glass wall behind you".

For everybody who contradicted me about the fact that the leg shouldn't trail behind you in a sprint:

Because back then they weren't obsessed with accumulating upperbody (and overall) mass... they were "natural" if you will.

However, I'd say DeAndre Jordan right now would be able to do stuff like that.

does stuff just get to romania later even with the whole internet thing?

I don't care about what is "new". What I care about is what I like. It could be a 40 year old song and I would still like it. So cut the arrogant western crap.

The weightlifter has an advantage having done endless squats and cleans and snatches in the shoes allowing him to get lower in the SVJ and exert more power through a longer ROM.

Fixed!

Great. I'm going to start doing box jumps from a below parallel position, since that clearly confers biomechanical advantages.
