    Is any one still incorporating adarqui's concept of length tension motor pools in their workouts? Stretching and high rep squats? I really like the concept, any thoughts for people that tried it?

ltmp/high rep/rested max was by far the best stuff i ever did.. rested max is crazy advanced tho i dont advise it unless you are crazy experienced, mostly because allowing your ego to triumph over common sense is pretty easy.. rested max requires staying below the threshold of psyching up/work up sets, the idea being you just go from homeostasis to a 'safe' max effort without any workup/psyche ups in between, so it requires alot of experience.

ltmp stuff can be done very safely imo.. especially if you play with the higher rep work more so than the max effort single etc.......

i never felt better when doing ltmp.. the combo of stretching + heavy high rep/heavy singles made me feel the most bouncy ive ever felt in my life.. was pretty shocking.. landed my best dunks using that technique too.

heavy high rep work is brutal but i feel it's the most effective... incorporating that with ltmp technique i really feel it's ridiculously powerful.

peace

i'd also probably do lighter high rep weightlifting work with stretching... the ltmp/rested max stuff.. avoiding that max effort + max intensity stress/fear of injury.

i'd go max effort high rep, ie 10's/20's etc... but not max effort singles.

if i did get back into dunking it would be entirely single leg, i think.. and i'd try not to care about my weight.

even if i landed just weak dunks id just accept it and not focus on bodyweight etc.. not for any reason other than i want to eat lots of thai food.

i dont think i can really jump double anymore.. for me, jumping double required tons of aggression.. single leg would just surprise me even with relaxed jumps.

so ya, if i do dunk again it'd be single leg dosed up on thai food.

I guess its kinda like the anticipation of you training again would be the same as hearing the fight between pacquaio and mayweather has been scheduled.

 :P

walked up to a really nice basketball hoop today.. first time in like a year.

glass backboard, breakaway, chain net, really nice hoop.. just looked at it for a while, was 10', thought about how last year i would have made a trip to this hoop to destroy it.. interesting.

then i jogged a mile today with my dog and almost had a heart attack.

uh oh... he's comin back.

I've seen you "like" dunk videos on youtube bro... you're thinkin about it again. I know it.

lol well, i still enjoy watching dunk vids.. i wont lie, i have thought about it, but it dissipates rather quickly.

if something pans out in the near future ill get back to working out.. if not, stay sedentary until it does.

I actually had a debate about abortion with tons of people on Facebook not to long ago... It's funny how some people automatically start thinking with their emotions rather then their logic once a very controversial topic such as this is brought up. Also, it always comes full circle to religion. People will say, "is that what god wants?", or "what would Jesus do?". They always revert back to an argument centered around their religious beliefs or emotions, which they believe in so fully without any thought or logic doing so, that they can't be persuaded. I tell them I am atheist, and some automatically stop listening to my argument because of that haha.

yup.. they also think you're "a liberal/democrat" for supporting abortion.. it's all partisan politics.. i dont get why people lump others into categories based on ONE VIEW.. religion is the great divider, it needs to GTFO of politics already.

Definitely..lots of people I know are liberal on some issues, conservative on others, some republicans, some democrats, and even then people still figure out a way to label them and categorized them, failing to see the gray area. I think this is done partly because it is an thing for the brain to process, rather than having to put people and things into multiple categories. And yes, we would like religion to stay outta politics altogether, but I think that is a difficult thing to do, with religion, ethics, and economics all tangled together in peoples minds. There are so many conflicting viewpoints, and standpoints to think from, that it is hard to separate them.

ya labeling is too easy.. sometimes we forget that the vast majority of this world are followers, easily manipulated, it's just genetics.. there has to be far fewer leaders than followers.. anyway, when you have these manipulative crooks toying with people on each side, you get partisan politics.. if truly decent people were leading each of these parties, there would be compromise, respect, understanding, and "truth telling".. absolutely none of that is happening currently.. it's beyond divisive, brutal, mean spirited, disrespectful, and full of lies, on both sides.. but it all stems from those who lead.... they hand out the marching orders, then these toothless morons go walking around spreading nonsense... even the news media exacerbates the partisan divide.. fox vs msnbc, then cnn trying to keep it 'neutral' by having opposing sides blast each other in every segment.. it's just a big joke.

regardless, whichever party uses "god" more, is the one that scares me... using the concept of god to win votes is crossing the line imo... because it's just pure lunacy.. it's worse than schroeder's LDISO's which are a religious event in themselves.

edit: fuck the rest ;]

Sorry whilst I laugh at "typical liberal diversion". Calling you out on your hypocrisy elicits an interesting response. Sorry if I offend you but an embryo is not a "human being". Sure, it can become one, but preventing it from doing so isn't an act of murder. Why don't you cry for all of the other 149,999,999 sperm that didn't get to the egg? Sounds like you need a bit more science in your life. Also, try imagining that you have a vagina & try to see it from their perspective. The vast majority of women are "pro choice". Finally, what's the difference between aborting an embryo/fetus and raising it in poverty to horrific parents? Alot of those aborted embryos would probably grow up and kill you in a gas station robbery.
