She's not 5'11", but still impressive.  Announcers said 6'4", despite the graphic saying 5'11".  This has her at 6'3"

That Eric Lillibridge dude, looks like he's built for deadlifting...his form is impeccable...some pretty nice hamstring flexibility too.

I've seen this guys channel before...he's pretty impressive.  Gets good height on that RVJ and his plant looks a bit awkward.

Yeah that's why I said "if you can do full squats safely", because it pretty much depends on structure. By the way, do you feel like you improved on your "bounce (rebound)" at a half squat depth, or is a bounce in there at all?

Why do you think a rebounds is easier at full vs. at half? (meaning - to what do you attribute the existance of rebound anyway)?

Rebound is definitely easier with full squat.   Rebound has 3 parts (that I'm aware of)
1. muscle stretch reflex
2. hamstrings/calves contact  (and possibly stomach on upper thighs)
3. bar momentum

So you basically say that since that the glute stretch at the bottom, and it's SSC effect (reactive effect) on the power induced for that particular squat is better than the quad stretch and it's SSC effect that you receive when you do say parallel squats or half squats?

more muscle stretch with full squat
no physical bounce from tissues approximating with half squat
and easier to harness some bounce from the bar's recoil (not sure if recoil is the correct word, but you get my point)

Also, I think I'm gonna try to switch to high bar squats. Less forward lean, easier to get deep. Screw half/quarter squats.

screw you



hahahaha...that was good.

How did the ankle hold up to playing?

gotta do the long posts though.. it's my DNA that is forming.. it's my training DNA and you will see the "genes" within it that result in my 45" RVJ.

I dig it... progressive training and other environmental factors creating epigenetic adaptions that result in a 45" RVJ.

Welcome!

I currently can dunk but they're weak girly dunks. So my goal is to gain at least four more inches.


'girly' dunk or not, that's awesome! Please post a vid.

Haha...love the big dude watchin ya.


FWIW, most bacterial infections are gonna be staph or strep and the vast majority are not serious.  But if you're getting recurrent infections you've got to get to the bottom of why your immune system is weak at the moment.

I'm going to Chapel Hill next month for the game. I'm not a UNC or a Duke fan but let's be real. Duke ain't looking that hot right now. Singler has gone to shiiiit. The only player that really stands out on that team to me right now is Nolan Smith. UNC are gonna take it next month...got a feeling!

Duke ain't lookin' as hot as they did before Irving went down, I will grant you that. But coming back from 16 down to win a rivalry game against a ranked team, while most of the team is playing like garbage, has got me feeling pretty good. Singler's too good to keep struggling like he has, Curry is coming along, the front line is underrated (and underperforming, but still, underrated).

And yeah, Smith is awesome. Maryland native, too.

We're not a great team and probably won't repeat, but anything less than Final Four would be a disappointment this year.

Go Blue!!!
