Doesn't that look like 100% perfection? (well it wouldn't be perfection if it weren't under 100% but you get the idea) :trollface:

Yeah it does look better but you need to be more "deliberate" in your approach. Right now it looks like wherever you end up planting... that's it. Instead, try to really pre-program your approach to be very exact and deliberate.

By the way - I agree with entropy about gaining weight to gain squat numbers. I mean... I'd get to a 100 kg bodyweight at 6'0 with a 180 kg squat... but what would that do on the actual field? Each and every jump would be such a shock and such a destroyer of joints at that point... I would jump a few times and then need to go home. And as I have terrible cardio ability, carrying that weight with me and trying to move it around would be TERRIBLE.

So... it doesn't make any sense (in my position) to get there.

As for squatting - looking at my recent squats that I've filmed... they look really good IMO even as low bar squats. Mutombo should go with low bar IMO.

You don't look very lean though. You could probably be the same weight as you are right now with a way bigger squat.

Totally agree. But I eat a lot of sugars because that's what I grew up liking (that's what my mom always bought as a "reward" etc). Plus I'm terrible at cardio so... no kcal burning either.

If I try a RL (non-natural) jump with many steps in the run-up it gets really ugly, but off 1 or 2 steps as a run-up I get as high as off a LR plant.
