I never understood how people can half squat... but I never bend my legs when I walk or jump or sprint anyway.

Lel you're saying all that? What if you were me training for 8 years consistently now struggling to high bar squat 95x5x5 kg?

Did you dunk off one or two feet?
And by the way... how the heck are you only 22?! I thought you're 27 or so, you've been training for a ton of time.

Article & Video Discussion / Re: Articles on effectiveness of plyometrics?
« on: April 24, 2015, 06:21:57 pm »
Completely agree. I think one thing that is not discussed enough is the overload that is occuring during plyos, that can't otherwise be replicated in the gym.
So in terms of CNS training to accept that overload in terms of not shutting down the muscles and also accepting that tension in the associated tendons (the tendons themselves have to adapt etc) - that is underrated with plyos.
For example, right now I can dunk on 2.95 off a standing vertical jump, but off even one step I jump lower. I just can't "cope" with the overload, as little as it is, that is occuring. Maybe it's the body position that is different (legs not under me) or whatever, but I feel the collapse occuring.

Actually, I talked with him some time ago and he had his deadlift at pretty much the same level as me after training for 3 weeks or so, not 8 years like I have.
