Article & Video Discussion / Re: Bret Contreras' article about exercise form
« on: May 17, 2012, 01:28:54 pm »
sounds interesting. this got me thinking.

is it bad if my knees collapse inward a bit on a running 2 legged jump? i can't possible imagine myself not letting that happen.

gosh that weird. i have problem with deadlifts. it's easier when i push my hips up first making it more like a RDL, or i cant lift the weight.

This is how a technically very good deadlift looks like. I bet yours is very different. Figure it out.

I cannot believe my eyes. That form was insanely good for a max attempt...

it would work as a 24" depth jump. havn't tried it, maybe it messes with your concentration on the landing...

tho it would be hard to know if you're getting 6" every single time. stack some textbooks on that bench instead.

Long legs + short torso + long hands = shitty full squat / good DL/RDL.


ah long legs really? hmm people with logn femur have trouble lifting more in squats , didnt thought deadlift too was like that.

man ur reading comprehension is killing me

of course if you're not full squatting it may be heavier than the deadlift

my full squat was higher than my DL for about 2-3 years, but that's because I didn't deadlift. now my DL is higher after just 3 months of doing it.

I say you work for relative strength for a while:



Improve strength for the reasons Kingfish said

But also cut some of that fat and get lean. Maybe you'll taking a liking to bodybuilding when you look better, who knows? In addition it'll get you lighter in the case you do train for the dec. or maybe you'll want to increase your vertical again.



Just another idea.

Well why don't you do the "trendy" american teenage rebel thing these days by "exploring new things" and "finding out about yourself?"

jumping a bit further would help. To be honest, when i jump too close to the rim, i have to arch my back backward and I feel like I lose some height that way. In addition, it's easier to time the wrist snap when you're coming towards the rim from far instead of straight up (for me).
