Progress Journals & Experimental Routines / Re: Age vs Vertical

Yeah but if you extrapolate the 1RM off a 5RM for a beginner/intermediate trainee vs. an elite trainee... what would the difference be?

In my opinion, when the real 1RM goes above the projected 1RM, that shows you're already at a good movement efficiency rate for that movement.
But I could be wrong in that maybe it's a sign of the actual reverse of this. Maybe when you up the number of reps you can't go as heavy because of the lack of movement efficiency (that adds up over the number of reps and makes the projected 1RM be lower than your actual 1RM).
It would be interesting to find out what the case is.
Do elite squatters have a much higher 1RM than their projected 1RM from a 5 rep set, for example?

doesn't do that for me
It does here. Both in Chrome and in Mozilla.

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.
