I don't get what this is about.

Then it's probably a matter of technique (as far as bounding is concerned)

Hm... I have a question: how strong are your calves? Can you do something like 3x20x100 kg of calf raises?

Yeah that makes sense.
I think I'm going to do something like what I've been doing so far, so no chezkenny, because I feel like I need some volume to grow a bit in the upperbody considering my execrable bench and overhead press numbers.
But as far as squatting goes, I'm thinking of going with a 5 rep set of full squats and a 5 rep set of half squats and a 5 rep set of deadlifts and call it a day (two days per week this). I'll also do some hip thrusts/KB swings for some dynamic component but that's pretty much it.
So it would be 5 full squats, 5 half squats, 5 deadlifts and then hip thrusts/kb swings. The load I'll use would be a PR attempt load on Monday and a lighter load on Thursday.
Otherwise, it's time for plyos baby! If I'm still jumping ~36ish off one leg after 4 months of no jumping of any kind, plyos should give me a boost.

But your form looked good and you were much closer to dunking with the ball in hand than off two feet the last time you attempted one-leg jumps.

It matters if you have ovaries as far as bodyfat measuring goes?

Deadlifts give you a big waist as much as squats give you a big biceps. In fact, squatting can actually be a better stimulus for overall body growth (including the biceps) than the deadlifts are for a "big waist".

Yeah^^^
That's why I did only a 3x3 instead of a 9x3 in the speed day on the half squat. Way too much volume if I do 9x3. But a 3x3 with 120, 110 and 100 kg going for speed is fine IMO. Otherwise, cleans and snatches during this speed day.
