from my facebook...

mindblown, my dog just tried broad jumping (from chair to couch) about 6 feet.. hit the couch with half his body.. limped around for 5 minutes.. now he's good, but, makes absolutely no sense that he tried to jump that far.. i still can't understand it lmao.






^^^^^ one of the weirdest things ive ever seen.. no joke.

a few real hard dunks, some of these stills are from my warmup jumps, forget which.

i hate how the heat shuts me down.. indoor i can go 30+ jumps and feel good.. outdoor with lots of heat, 15 is tough.






































lol looks funny:

adarqui said that he had disc, back injuries from deadlifting years ago... he had those lightning bolts too...




You did? So you had the same problem as I have now? What did you do to solve it?

yup, had shooting pains down my leg from horrible form deadlifts, before i knew anything about proper training/while i was in computer science, could barely walk, lasted about 3 months, thats why i got obsessed with exercise science, to fix myself.

i did tons of prone superman's and then eventually progressed to 45 degree hypers, thats how i fixed my back.. took months.

why is everyone just talking out of their ass, i don't get it.

Those fucked up threads are beginning to get really annoying!
Backpedal strokes , NBA players that don't train because they can already dunk , top secret T-DUB secret and so on...

Raptor, we all agree there are better and worse plants ( although you are being dogmatic about rotation etc , each body is different and has a different optimal plant ).

EDIT : picking random Vince Carter videos , comparing uneven things (old VC - young VC / open court one hander - pivot dropstep 2 hander) and making arguments and rules out of it = broscience.

But this is a wrong thread to talk about this , this is a thread that talks about "T-DUBS biggest secret. Elastic winding & coiling."

"T-DUBS biggest secret. Elastic winding & coiling."

"T-DUBS biggest secret. Elastic winding & coiling."

"T-DUBS biggest secret. Elastic winding & coiling."

"T-DUBS biggest secret. Elastic winding & coiling."

"T-DUBS biggest secret. Elastic winding & coiling."

"T-DUBS biggest secret. Elastic winding & coiling."

im just glad i learned today that the reason vince carter jumps lower, is not because of his what, 14+ nba seasons with 82+ games each, it's because he is rotating less into his plant and thus using less p-chain, even though their are vids of him jumping crazy high in his prime with barely any rotation..................................... just happy i learned that today.

Check 3:45 here:

<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pHxq9HHnHCI" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pHxq9HHnHCI</a>

what about it?

There's a lot of rotation in his plant there. As I observed Vince his entire career, the difference in now vs. back in the day in terms of his plant is his lack of rotation, more quad involvement and less PC, and high center of gravity in his plants now (and lower jumps).

the video you posted of him, that dunk, he's barely getting off the ground..

what about here?

"the difference in now vs. back in the day in terms of his plant is his lack of rotation, more quad involvement and less PC, and high center of gravity in his plants now (and lower jumps)"

incorrect, the difference now is that he's older, nothing more.. it doesn't have to do with some secret spiraling technique that has disappeared from his arsenal.. furthermore, since when is rotating into the plant less quad and more PC? why is everyone just talking out of their ass, i don't get it. rotating into a plant should be more quad, more calf because of how you're "Breaking".. if you jumped straight ahead, linear, it's much less of a breaking effect, which would be less quad.

raptor don't let sickenin vendetta take you down with him, he's drowning, as usual.
