kyle's main audience is people whose primary concern is aesthetics. if your goals include "getting faster" or "improving speed endurance," then obviously you should sprint. he wouldn't argue with that.

i'm not sure what that means.
in other news, my brother disappeared again a couple of days ago and turned up today at the ER with a ripped tendon and punctured artery in his arm. he'd bandaged it himself and apparently tied it tight enough that he didn't bleed out, so that's good. but he bled all over the ER nurse. guess she's seen worse. on the plus side, he's alive. on the down side, i now have a new way in which i can imagine him dying. bleeding to death was not on the list before.
also, it's my mom's birthday, so i'm going out to dinner with her. i was planning to work out afterward but under the circumstances that might not happen.
EDIT: yeah, no way i was getting to the gym today. tomorrow's out too so it'll have to be friday. oh well.

« on: February 12, 2013, 03:48:23 pm »When I was comparing the styles of jump I was actually reffering to this:Quoteif you want to talk about movement patterns, kingfish's SVJ's are more like a low-bar squat. he leans way over. so do i, although i don't get nearly as high. look:vs comparing your SQUAT styles. I was comparing your JUMPING styles.
From what I understand, you were comparing your squat styles lower in your post (and what you quoted).
The revelance of ball in hand is that he can't armswing his arms from back to forward-up like you can... that might alter the way he jumps (maybe with the ball in hand he has more weight in front of him, loading the quads more like in a front squat).
ah, my mistake. points taken.

i do the "hang out and move around at the bottom of the squat" as part of my squat warm up. but i don't try to work my butt forward the way that guy does. must add that in.
i will continue to do OH squats with the empty bar until they get comfortable. the ones in the vid were from before i started my normal warm up, fwiw. ankle mobility is an issue, and thoracic spine mobility. those and hip capsule stuff are my main targets.

« on: February 12, 2013, 02:26:22 pm »Shit. I'd mostly forgotten about that. It would certainly explain why I had no energy/fire/whatever. I FELT fine but it very well may have still been affecting me. Thanks LBSS.
ahahaha, you wrote about the concussion IN THE SAME POST that you complained about the workout sucking. maybe it was worse than you thought.
glad to help.
