try incline walking on the treadmill. very low impact, very low intensity so should not interfere with other objectives. stick on a podcast or an album you like and just walk.

having not squatted in more than a month, i'm pretty sure i could do 90x20 today without trying too very hard. 
in related news, i still can't dunk.

why do you need to figure out how much the hack squat machine weighs? you're just measuring improvement from a baseline. it's not like "hack squat calf raises" something you can compete in.

not nearly as great a move, but this is brother-on-brother so i'm sticking it in here anyway.

chris, raptor's opinion on this is settled, you're not going to argue him out of it. we've had the debate about the AI/jordan move before. it's just a question of what you value. i have no idea how raptor makes his judgments but to me context matters A LOT. the iguodala move is amazing in large part because he was on a fast break, in traffic, going against an NBA defender. quincy miller ain't much in the NBA but he's still one of the best ~400 basketball players in the world.
AI, as a rookie, crossed up michael jordan, one of the greatest defensive players of his generation at the peak of his powers.
the one recently where the streetball guy (forget who) crossed up some schlub and then did a little dance over him is relatively not as cool. it'd be like crossing me up. hurray, you made an unskilled player look bad in a meaningless game in front of 300 people. it was an amazing move but it doesn't compare.
context.

yes, i guess you're right, AI crossing up michael is the GOAT. still, pretty nasty given the degree of difficulty. fast break, lot of traffic.

that video of bolt really is one of the most dumbfounding things i've ever seen. and the commentary is great: "oh lalalalala." exactly.
