happy belated birthday adarqui..
good luck with the next year of training.
I'll be at college in a week. I've got a gym on campus so daily journal logs are very likely now.
good day
At least provide a source for your quote. You can't not provide a reference for quotes...
And also, what about tendons? They don't use actin/myosin how does your quote even apply to that, why even talk about force, you should be talking about power.
again, why do i have to replicate t-dub's jump when i could replicate GC/YH/AUT's jump?

Listen up... This is for real.
I just watched the vid in slow-mo just now from the front cam (head-on shot).
He plants his right foot first, as he plants that foot, he hasn't coiled his upperbody yet (counter-rotated into lowerbody/achilles tendon). His body is still facing forwards towards the basket at this point.
As the left foot plants, he counter-rotates/twists upperbody into lowerbody/Achilles. HUGE, HUGE counter rotation going on. At lift-off whole body/Achilles is coiled/twisted, you see his body facing the side on cam.). He's put massive coil into both right & left foot (planting) from counter-rotating with the upperbody. He just coils then uncoils. Even though he is putting coil through most of the body, it's the coil he produces in his Achilles/plant that is the defining factor.
HUGE ELASTIC ENERGY DEVELOPMENT.
Do this yeah...
COMPRESS YOUR ABS/CORE HARD, KEEP IT COMPRESSED THROUGHOUT THE DUNK & PERFORM T-DUBS PLANT.
Should feel like your stomach is being crushed. That is the twisting power/torque your putting through the body.
Feeling the twist in the core. Imagine the torque being developed through the Achilles tendons with every dunk.
Bam.Quote
Develop the strength in the gym, develop T-DUBS technique/coiling/elastic energy at the basket.
happy bday dude, we're approaching the big 3-O!
happy birthday mang, I couldnt find any funny pic so I leave you this one from a board of a teather I saw in Argentina
happy birthday boss. this gonna be a year of improvement getting closer to breaking those teeth on the rim. all jokes aside you the best trainer out there man.
one thing that'd be great man is if you could write some stuff about speed training. that'd mean a lot to me cuz i take your word seriously. something like what you did with the single leg jumper's toolbox. shit was dope. peace man.
The best is yet to come.......and the worst.
Hope u have a good one.
Happy birthday man!
Hey andrew,
long time no chat
happy bday btw
quick training question if cool?
just then i did 175kg times 5 trap bar deadlift on blocks (about kneeish high) rack DL if you will
Im 6 foot 3
about 88 to 90kg (200lbs ish) and
looking at your PR vid of 315lbs times 5 at 145lbs
i thought i would try this and adjust weights by adding my extra bodyweight 55lbs or so (385lbs times 5) which i did.
I also looked at your bottom leg position too which my trap DL replicates angle wise
and trying to keep spine neutral
SO phew:)
just wondering, my back feels ok now, but how do feel this would compare for vert leap benefit in comparison to your half squats that you do? ( i dont have ready access to a power rack btw)
keep up the great site and work:)

adarqui, replicate how T-DUB is running/lining upto the basket. Then your on your way to producing masses amount of full-body elastic energy.
There is no great T-DUB coil or spiralling of the myosin filaments from that position your in within that pic.
See the guy with the red shorts in the pic?, he is facing in the same direction how T-DUB is setting up when he plants.
In that pic from your last dunk session, your feet/legs/torso have to be pointing to the right wall (the direction the guy in the red shorts is facing), IF your to replicate T-DUBS super dunk/action/elastic energy development.
Watch the vid, watch where T-DUBS left foot/legs/torso plant & look where the camera is at. He is completely face on (facing the right wall in your dunk picture). Overtime this coiling will generate huge amounts of elastic energy especially in the achilles tendons & throughout the entire body.
Trolling?.
I posted you the quote. Can't really make it any clearer.Quote
^ 'as the descending weight'. T-DUBS bodyweight.
'twists in the bands on the way down'. T-DUB planting/torquing.
'it enables the muscle to store high amounts of elastic energy'.
