I just started to 8)

ya i noticed.. nice..

just take your time with it.. single leg bounding leads to iron legs, but it doesn't happen over night.. the problem is peopel do it for like a week then stop.

if your goal is speed/single leg jumping ability, improving SL bounding = gold.

yea those are preparatory though.. the most intense variation is single leg repeating.

edit: they are still useful and provide overload

I love what Christie is doing at 50 seconds in, that's a sweet drill

well ya they would be intense but, not as intense as single leg bounding due to the velocity.. but ya all of these single leg exercises provide huge overload.

that's one of my favorite videos.. that is a great demonstration of strength. improving the ability to perform exercises like that will transfer significantly to sprinting.

well, get them on vid? you really want to see yourself first, but i mean, the form should be there somewhat before you progress.. it's not like you have to spend forever on alternate though, you can always play with single leg bound "progressions" and progress slow with those also, it's a very different movement.

first progression for single leg bound is just a light cycling of the leg as you go forward.

Post by: bball2020 on April 13, 2010, 05:08:47 pm: i would add, set some kind of attainable yet challenging benchmark, IE my goal is to get the half court length(about 13 yards yards in my gym) in 4 bounds each leg
