Any explanations for the recent squat PRs? The high bar squat effect?

From what I know "stretching the IT band" is just a myth, since it's too dense to be stretched at all.

It seems to me the RL plant with right hand dominant creates a different style of dunking then the LR plant with right hand dominant. With his his style of plant it really allow him to jump sideways and bring the ball back.. I really envy this as it makes for much smoother dunking especially for in game dunks..

You think?!

Yeah I'm a pretty sexy individual. I guess I should stay in each game, right?

ANYWAY, yeah what you're saying sounds like a "grown-up" version of basketball. Here it's everybody for himself and that's that. At least in the team I played for. There are other teams but I played in the worst one :P

It's due to the quads overgrowing everything else IMO. When that happens you become a 2-leg jumper. It never happened for me though.

Here we were all paying for the refereeing the same amount of money, except some were playing 5 minutes and some were playing 35 minutes. I was like "since I PAY to play you can't criticize anything I do at all. If you were paying me to play, THEN you'd have to right to criticize me".

And since we all pay the same amount of money for the refereeing when we play a different amount of time on the court, then it's even worse.

So finally I said "fuck you" and left.

One of them had the guts to say I'm too "slow" for them (because I play cerebrally and never go on suicide drive missions over the defense). I was about to say "hey, let's have a 50m sprint, whoever loses gets to be kicked in the balls by the winner".

I swear I don't get the 2-leg jump... how can people plant like that and not have their legs slip from underneath them is beyond me.

I just never take shots. If I see a teammate open I ALWAYS pass him the ball. The reverse is never true, however. They all play for themselves and want to take as many (bad) shots as possible. That's why I stopped playing. That was really retarded.

The most I have ever scored in an official game in my life was 5 points.

- squat 335 x 1; 345 x 1; 275 x 4,4
holy crap. i had 355 for sure, which would have been a PR tie. 345 went up fast. decided not to push it, though. no point in grinding. warmed up with HB until 135.

Just a few sessions of high-bar squatting and your already PRing in the low-bar.  Carryover!

That's what I said to him too. It appears LBSS has very strong hips but is lacking in quad and calf strength/efficiency/power. If he gets that up then... you know...

squatted 345 with absolutely no psyche up and it was solid. not an absolute PR but for non-stim'd state that's a PR for sure. 1.95x bw with no stim. sweet.

I wonder if doing those high bar squats lately potentiated your quads or something.
