So what's up with BCAA after all? I mean, if I take BCAA "pills", is that any good or bad?

Yeah from what I've seen of you, you're so "bad" at compressing into the ground and releasing energy, almost everything you put out is voluntary power.
If you could work on that you'd jump a lot higher. I really believe in what I'm saying here.

Then why didn't you do some of these to prevent your VJ to drop?
Focused a lot on the squat so you had to limit your jumping?

« on: March 11, 2011, 08:52:41 pm »Why do all people seem to bench press with suicide grip nowadays?
Not all people do but some really good lifters do, its easier on the shoulder joint and easier on the connective tissue in people who have pec tear issues for some. There is nothing wrong with using a false grip IF you know what youre doing.
Yeah but I have a feeling a lot of people use the suicide grip because they think that's the WAY you're supposed to bench press, that's the problem.
It's interesting because, according to Pavel Tsatsouline, the most powerful "arm extension" when pushing something has it's point in the base of the thumb (several inches lower, on the bottom of the palm) area. So it would make sense for the bar to sit there if you're to apply maximum power to it. But, you know, better safe than bench press.

I don't know, two footed jumps of any kind just absolutely destroy me, they are so difficult and overload the knees and quads like you can't believe.
How would you do that? I could keep it very simple, doing DJs, squats and some form of sprints and that's it.

« on: March 11, 2011, 04:51:15 pm »Can i do the broad jump in the sand pit? Or does it have to be on an even surface?
not that i'm the judge, but i feel like even surface keeps it fair. we don't all have sandpits to jump into.
Problem is my knees explode from doing the broad jumps on hard surfaces because i always try to get a big distance...
Bball has a point though. Sandpit does inflate numbers a little because of the landing, so Ill have to say no sandpit.
Grass is good?
Grass is illegal in some countries.
