He looks like he's having a pretty big butt, but other than that, if I were to see him in the street or whatever, and told to guess his VJ, I'd say 24 inches or so. There's no indication he should be jumping like that.

That's crazy, considering the ball looks damn slippery and there's dust all over the place. How tall is the rim?

Seated iso calf raise? That pretty much trains the soleus...
You'd be better off using Lance's iso hold while also staying on your toes.

Injury, Prehab, & Rehab talk for the brittlebros / Re: How to get rid of the bar while squatting with the low bar position

Yeah, the gym owners wouldn't mind me go over there with saw horses.
The thing is, I have a squat rack but the safeties are too high for me to full squat... it messes everything up since I always have to think "don't hit the supports" and my squat suffers immensly.

Yeah, I'm going with low rep sets and a high rep set at the end.

When you squat in the low bar position the bar just presses (at least for me) hard into the hands. If you fail a rep, and are outside the squat cage, how do you unload the bar? How do you get outta there? I'm talking no spotter.
Because with the low bar, there's no space but down for the bar to slide and if that happens, it could catch your arms/elbows and pull you down.

Well yeah, you better believe I will! Any more ideas on how to develop the VMO without putting too much strain on the knee itself? Because probably 1/4 squats are great for that, but, you know, they kind of put pressure on the knee. Except maybe if I go high rep with a low weight. Say 1/4 high bar squats with 50 kg.

That's what you get from wearing a corset all day long.
I remember that picture by the way, there was in some book, not sure which one (either in a Pavel Tsatsouline book or in Starting Strength).

Haha, I just did one set of ~1:30 minutes... it really feels... I don't know... it feels like I can squat 200 kg. I mean, sudden strength. I should do this stuff, especially as I never get my VMOs to fire no matter what I do.
Maybe I should try this stuff in the gym using the leg extensions machine and the lowest possible weight (5 kg or whatever).
PS. As I get tired, I can feel the VMO is half of my left quad, but for the right quad, I feel like the VMO is 1/10 of the quad mass.
Man that right VMO sucks like you can't believe... so small and weird, no wonder my right knee has problems.
