That can't be 11 feet. It's filmed from the ground especially to give you the impression of a tall rim. Maybe over 10, but not 11.

Did you learn how to coil?

I always focus on adding strength in the winter since I have no place to play. It's better to enjoy the strength you gained in the winter during the summer.

Looking good. I bet that orange ball has so much grip, Flip has a similar one and we dunk that so well.

"There has to be a coiling/twisting/spiralling element of the myosin filaments to generate great elastic energy."

The coiling/twisting/spiralling is created between joints.  There might be twisting at the ankle, the knee, the hips..... But there is simply no evidence that you can cause your myosin filaments to twist.  In fact the conformational change between myosin and actin filaments is regulated by chemistry and cannot be changed by coiling between your joints.  It may be possible that this coiling takeoff results in a much stronger contraction, but the effect would be neural not a physical change in myosin filaments.   

Exactly^^^

That twist stresses the CNS into better recruitment since there will be an increased tension generated by the twist.

Also every time, after about a week, it just got to a point where I would secretly wish for something else to come up so I wouldnt have to go to the gym. 

In my opinion, if you still have this mentality, you shouldn't start training again. It would be a waste of time. If you don't, then welcome.

adarqui said that he had disc, back injuries from deadlifting years ago... he had those lightning bolts too...




You did? So you had the same problem as I have now? What did you do to solve it?

yup, had shooting pains down my leg from horrible form deadlifts, before i knew anything about proper training/while i was in computer science, could barely walk, lasted about 3 months, thats why i got obsessed with exercise science, to fix myself.

i did tons of prone superman's and then eventually progressed to 45 degree hypers, thats how i fixed my back.. took months.

So what exactly would you recommend? Supermans? I mean, if it's a discus problem... what's the path to take to recovery?

PS - New court looks really sleek.
