Strength, Power, Reactivity, & Speed Discussion / Re: Posterior Chain Strength Preparation for the Vertical Jump by Charles Poliquin?.
« on: February 28, 2011, 09:31:13 am »
I've always said nr 18 is true for a simple reason: if you watch wildlife, a male without a partner will always be aggressive and nervous - he just HAS to have a mate (or simply put - fuck someone/something). It's just the way life ensures it's cyclic nature/perpetuation. So basically, the longer you go without sex the more frustrated you are and the more rate coding benefits/CNS power you get.
It's like an energy boost. Your body/brain/whatever "needs" to have/find a partner and is willing to fight with another male to do it, so you become more aggressive. It definitely depends from person to person, some people will probably have to wait a longer period until they get into that teritorry.

+1
Much better hip load for Damienz, but it was expected from Adarqui to be extremely quad dominant on these.
I just feel like if adarqui would learn to gather his hips better, plant forwards more etc and make that adjustment, he'd jump so much higher... (I'm sure he's going to disagree)

Well yeah, I consider full squats a GPP exercise and half squats more of a SPP exercise, since they are more specific to jumping and you can play with the load a bit.

Article & Video Discussion / Re: Deep SKWATZ
« on: February 28, 2011, 03:04:44 am »Beyond any of that, half squatting (slightly above parallel, NOT PARALLEL) is 100x more specific to vert/power based athletic movements than is deep squatting.
Isn't weighttraining always just GPP for the non weightlifter-athlete?
At the end it shouldn't matter how the strength was obtained...
so then why would it matter if strength is obtained in a deep squat vs half squat?
checkmate
goodnight
do not pass go

Hahaha, I bet adarqui had sweet dreams after this.

« on: February 28, 2011, 12:36:48 am »what are some achilles tendon to calf length ratios for some elite jumpers and sprinters? what ratio would be considered "high cut" calves?
Would high cut calves count as the calf being less than the tendon length?
WTF?

Who said I am? The fat thing will resolve by eliminating sugars and going into sprints etc, and right now I'm downloading some Pavel Tsatsouline "Loaded Stretching" video... will see what it does.
But my flexibility is decent enough. There are some areas that are really lacking but... (like the hip flexors/abs and upperbody stuff, Kelly said something about them but I don't remember exactly what was the culprit - I always hurt in my abs when I jump off two feet, on my right side)

I just hate mobility work, stretching I hate it from the bottom of my heart. It's like I'm a retarded women in a pink compression short doing aerobics and counting 1-2-3-4 while stretching. I mean wtf? I hate it. I HATE IT.
Brr... just thinking about it makes me shiver.
And even if I wasn't hating that, I can't think of a good mobility routine/I find that useless. So...

I don't know, it just blows my mind (the one that's still in there). I mean, the contrast between the "killing machines" and the way they behave there just brings tears to my eyes (in a literal way). It's just... "deep" phylosophically if you will.
