Yes but the adaptability of the hip flexors is much lower than the overall weight gain of the legs. The same applies to the calves - one important reason why when you get heavier you'll be a worse one leg jumper is because the calves rarely get adapted to being stronger as you gain all that weight, and therefore being heavier = more overload to pretty much the same strength level for the calves = more collapse of the jumping leg.

The calves can't keep up getting stronger as the same rate as you gain weight, just as much as the hip flexors can't keep up getting stronger at the same rate as the legs are getting heavier.

I know I know, it just bothers me

Dark sand cascades on Mars:

They might look like trees on Mars, but they're not. Groups of dark brown streaks have been photographed by the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter on melting pinkish sand dunes covered with light frost. The above image was taken in 2008 April near the North Pole of Mars. At that time, dark sand on the interior of Martian sand dunes became more and more visible as the spring Sun melted the lighter carbon dioxide ice. When occurring near the top of a dune, dark sand may cascade down the dune leaving dark surface streaks -- streaks that might appear at first to be trees standing in front of the lighter regions, but cast no shadows. Objects about 25 centimeters across are resolved on this image spanning about one kilometer. Close ups of some parts of this image show billowing plumes indicating that the sand slides were occurring even while the image was being taken.

So basically it's harder to do them seated?

Because man, I struggle with 15 kg dumbbells to do a few reps and you do 10 reps with 18 kg dumbbells. But again, my elbows flare out a ton, my arms don't go straight up.

What's the difference between seated dumbbell OHP and standing? In your case. Is it easier to do them seated?

I read about the DC Sniper story and remembered when Adarqui was in big trouble when he was running in the streets in Florida at ~3 AM and he was about to become a gang initiation shooting victim.

Well the gang initiation thing happened, but it was ~1 AM. I ran faster than Usain Bolt that night. That dude probably would have caught up with me in my current state - definitely not when I was jumping 35+ and squatting every day

I don't do that anymore. I'm running in the dark again, but during normal human activity hours (so lots of people out on the streets).

 

Did the police get them?
