am finally back to deadlifting. taking it easy though, 225 for 5,5,4. played ball too, am continuing to jump off LR with no pain. anyone have any other suggestions for exercises?

hmm, no pain when i drop into a full bodyweight squat. will probably be hitting deadlifts soon to see whether they still hurt or not

lol yea, i like to see how high and far these guys run, and how fast they are in the 40 yd dash. really beastly to jump 40+ inches from a standstill while weighing 200+ lbs. unfortunately there are no 6'0 155 lbs NFL players, so i cant compare size with them lol. and yea, nba players arent THAT explosive as everyone thinks, the NFL makes them look like WNBA athletes lol. you cant blame them though i guess, cause you need to have a lot more conditioning rather than pure explosiveness. also, basketball is requires more skill which you can use to make up any athletic disadvantages you have

That is true, but it is just the way it is measured for reference. I guess it just replicates the olympic games measurement system ( see long jump and triple jump ).
Given the chance, not sure if you people are aware, broad jump WAS an olympic event early on : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standing_long_jump

yup i read about that. also read they still do that in some countries as a competition

just to confirm, when you measure your Broad jump with measuring tape you line up the start your heels right? it seems like a lot of people line the front of their foot at the start

hmm, im actually confused as to exactly what knee injury i have. i actually dont feel any pain on the tendon above my knee when i press on it. the patellar tendon seems fine too

might have go for a longer break. my condition hasn't been tendonitis for a long time now, just tendonosis. will take a long time for the tendon to get better again
