I can tell you one thing (as far as my recent injury):

YOU DON'T WANT ANY TWIST WHEN SQUATTING

5102
What if we go the other way around? Say, with an easier exercise like the leg press vs the squat? The leg press doesn't require any stabilization that you require in the squat just as the BSS or lunge requires less stabilization vs the shrimp.

So far, less need for stabilization was actually better.

Dreamt that adarqui was a major star athlete that was recording an ad for a sports company and he did a between the legs and he catched a second ball and dunked that too in the ad.

Then Lance came to my house and I asked him why I can't have my back straight when I deadlift or jump and he said that there's two possibilities: when the core is stronger than the posterior chain you will bend forward, and when the PC is stronger than the core you'll be more on your heels (wtf). Then he started to use the sign language since I was talking in Romanian and he couldn't understand a thing.

Then I started training a guy dressed in red in a camp full of tents, where, here and there - there was track mat. And I told him how to do bounding and he was bending a lot at the knee so I told him to stop.

You definitely look more reactive now, but that court looks post-apocaliptic.

That guy has bionic legs... so strong. Shannonbrownesque.

Apparently Kristaps put a sticker at ~3.70m while his reach is 2.55m. That's a 115 cm jump which is 45 inches.

1.96 + 1.15 = 3.11 - that would be 6 cm head over the rim or a bit over 2 inches.

112 lbs is heavy weight? What's going on in here?

That letonian guy was just crazy, every dunk he did was incredible. He's into the JR Smith blend, jumping off the right leg and (usually) finishing with the right hand.

Because Ziani was retarded and kept saying that Shal used a deflated ball to dunk and that's why.
