Progress Journals & Experimental Routines / Re: chasing athleticism

« on: August 12, 2014, 03:14:04 pm »

I remember when I got to the park with a weight vest on and played 3 on 3 for ten minutes or so, then took it off.

I expected to be greately potentiated, instead I was tensed up and jumping terribly.

I don't like a weight vest for quad dominant people. If you're quad dominant and you add a weight vest, you're going to be even MORE quad dominant in my experience. Due to that additional weight, you're going to push off using your strongest muscles even more => even more knee bend and quad overload.

Those jumps at 5:27 looked REALLY good... they looked different and definitely higher.

The hip thrusts at 6:30 are much better as well.

Now you just have to take the tests I gave you for this week.

Why you don't want to be that light?

Then try to stay light and jump endlessly. You'd be light and the TUT from the jumps will build 100% specific strength.

Just try it. Think only one thing "get deeper" and see what happens.

Why don't you try some deeper plants and see what happens?

400m Sprinting or Shorter / Re: technique videos and info

« on: August 11, 2014, 01:45:33 am »

I don't have a good comment to make, except that I can see your arm action looks "weak" and I think you'd benefit from a hell of a lot more hamstring strength looking at how you run: it looks like a bit of "collapsed" running to me (too much knee bend for my liking) but I could be wrong.

You also don't have enough "nerve" or "desire", at least comparing to myself - whenever I sprint I do so like my life depends on it.

This is nazi ideology!

You're defining classes of people!

Nah... but it's really interesting. More people would benefit from sprinting in a series of ways IMO. Sprinting is underrated.
