Strength, Power, Reactivity, & Speed Discussion / Re: Importance of Training Whole body
« on: March 07, 2011, 09:48:40 am »Well there are many benefits.
For one, squats build core strength. Secondly, the power you get (whole body power) is still hip initiated in general, and core generated/managed. Thirdly, a good leg strength base is the foundation on which upperbody is based on in terms of good stability for good power generating. And quartedly, the more lean muscle in general you have the more irradiation effect you have.
Where I'm going here is sports. If you do pullups/chinups/pushups etc just for the sake of good looking, then all I said is pretty much nullified.
yeah but big upper body and tiny legs makes you look like a fucking idiot.
I thought Johnny Bravo was pretty cool. "Whatever", to quote him.

I could always do KB swings well, hip initiated, because the arms are being kept straight and the KB is going foward. I could never understand how can you do power cleans or snatches, where the arm bends, without involving the arms.

Strength, Power, Reactivity, & Speed Discussion / Re: CORE strength/stability training in relation to vertical jump
« on: March 07, 2011, 06:14:29 am »Like I said, the irradiation effect is really a core generated effect.
Sorry but what is the irradiation effect?
It's the overall body potentiation effect that contracting the abs, glutes and forearm muscles gives you.
