I can't respond in any way. Impossible to determine. At least you know "something" is happening in the glutes, some metabolic stress or whatever.
I used to jump well with glute soreness because feeling that pain would make me more aware of the glutes and was able to better squeeze them voluntarily, because I would get some feedback on the amount of tension I could generate.

This guy reminds me of myself, with his jumping technique, because he uses almost straight arms in the armswing.

Honestly, I'm glad. Whenever a fucking flopper like Flopobili doesn't get his way, I celebrate with joy.
Sure, it was a foul, but I'm not upset at all
, people like Flopobili, Anderson Flopejao, James Flopper etc make me hate basketball, so if they get hit, fouled, and it doesn't get called, that's a reason for celebration and infinite happiness.

Absolutely. Go for it. Heck, I would even use them as main lifts.

Yeah, did you solve your issues with your wife? I think I saw a few good pictures on Facebook.

Reiterating this for the 100th time - the dumbbell BBS I found out to be the BEST glute-soreness-giving exercise in existence, to me. Absolutely tremendous glute soreness. Not sure why, but it is like that.

Well, it really depends on your strength, I guess. That will dictate the form.
Here's me in 2011, when I was weaker (ball in hand):

Here's me in 2015, "stronger" (but also heavier):

But what I really mean is this (disregard my arms going to the sides, I'm inflexible):

You should reach up with your arms high, get on your toes, then compress and jump to get really high off standing vert. You're not using your arms at all IMO.

I'll never understand how people do this... you weigh your food on a scale or what? And if so, how come this site has the foods that you eat? And if so, how do you know what the food contains (for example, if you eat pork soup, how do you know how much meat is in it and how much it is water and vegetables?)
And so on and so forth. Seems impossible or it would probably take hours every day to make this. Not to mention foods have weird names that I have to translate.

« on: April 29, 2016, 04:26:47 am »That's what i suspect too. I think the 150m tempos get them too, as i try to do them not 'stride-style' but 'sprint-style': i don't start 100% and then let momentum carry me, i treat them like normal sprints, keep pushing at each stride, just not 100%. I feel i get a much better training effect that way, strides are too easy, only use them as warmup.
That's exactly what I did yesterday. After 2 sprints of 150 meters I was dead. The worst is that my intestines/digestive system get inflamed when I run/exert effort, and that sucks the energy out of your body like crazy. You feel like giving up immediately and go home and rest for 3 days to recover.
