IN OTHER WORDS

Would you work on increasing the half squat even if it comes from improved movement efficiency, since in this case the movement efficiency is also specific to the jump or would that time be better spent working on increasing your strength with full squats?

Well yeah but the question remains is if sucking at the half squat is just a matter of strength (weak quads) or also a matter of bad "movement efficiency" (bad reversal which... what the heck would that be caused by other than lack of strength, even with a bad movement efficiency...)

So you still get back at strength no matter how you put it... and strength is better trained with full squats... which is weird because you start thinking that improving your half squat means improving your full squat first but I'm going to give the half squat a chance since I've been full squatting for so long.

How dare you?!

Isn't Hentai some sort of anime about philosophy and culture?

I thought the same thing initially, that he dived, but looking at it frame by frame... it looks like he was so weak that he couldn't stabilize his body and dropped down.

I agree with what Koing (cool name bro) is saying overall. I guess on the other hand there's the specificity crew who would argue it's a good thing to accelerate the eccentric phase because you want to do that in a bilateral jump.

Except you don't use that depth to jump so the specificity "jumps" out the window.

Shit I meant standing not bilateral. Running bilateral is a different story as you say.

Well they still miss the point if the subject is training for strength and hypertrophy.

Wow very nice... I don't think I've ever hit 24 total reps in the chinups even with the bodyweight.

My 110 kg high bar half squats of yesterday basically look like twice as slow as what you're doing in that video. Will film them the next time.

I'll film a 3x110 full squat video and a 3x110 half squat video.

Hey be optimistic - there's still time!
