Squat 355 x 3 with thighs exposed, plus ~38" running vert pic

It's the last (4th) set of my Saturday Smolov Jr workout. My shorts are rolled up in it to expose my thighs. My quads are relatively huge compared to my hamstrings that barely exist. Tomorrow I'll upload 3 of the 4 sets that I did and put it into one video.

I look like an idiot lol.

Squatted 8x4 at ~338lbs Friday and 4x3 at 355lbs Saturday, and got this high today:




Estimating ~38" running vertical there:

Rim is 120"
Bottom of backboard is 114" (or 6inches away from rim)
ASSUMING 6'2" height in shoes (which is 74")
Guessing head is 2" away from backboard:

114" - 2" - 74" = 38"

Head might be 3" from backboard, but I'm like 6'0.5" and this wasn't my best jumping day, so I know FOR SURE I can hit 38" legit. I think if I deload I'll hit 40" no doubt about it in like a month.

EDIT: O btw the 355x5 should move me up to a 375lb max squat in the rankings.

My feet are naturally externally rotated and have been like that my whole life. How the hell do I fix it? I can drop a vid of the pic tomorrow, along with another attempt that I did and got maybe 1" lower.

But really, how do I fix the externally rotated feet. I think the problem lies in my hips though. And my right foot points out more than my left.

Lol there were two attempts:



On that one I'm also on the right side of the backboard, but I didn't get as high so I just put the other one up.

EDIT: Hahha the way my shirt is folding and rolling makes me look like I'm a lard ass!!

That looks really high... if you would've pulled your heels to the butt, that would've looked incredible. :ninja:

How much have you practiced your two footed jump since you were pretty much an exclusive one-leg jumper?

Not too much. I don't even remember making the change completely anymore. Probably happened when I jumped from 190lbs to 200+ (with sneakers on). But I only practice my jumps about once a week so that's why I know I can get higher. Haven't been playing much pick up basketball either, I'm actually not that quick and coordinated on defense as I used to be.

The squat effect, I guess.

You should film some one leg jumps of yourself now and compare to older videos.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qvlr1A2jtvc

Jumps start at 1:17

Edit: Damn it pisses me off that it's not 1080p... gonna do this over.

Re-Edit: Guess windows movie maker can't save movies in 1920x1080 resolution.. highest I'm getting is 720x480, that's not even the first level of HD wtf!!!

Does anyone know any free move makers that allow for 1080p HD???
