Damn.

You're basically light years ahead of me, and I've been training consistently in the last 7 years.

The penultimate step should indeed be longer than the last step. You also want to be the "lowest" in the penultimate so that you can kinda start rising up on your last step and have the proper angle for takeoff and glute drive.

When you're low in the last step as well, then your tendency will be to have a longer last step (almost as long, if not, as the penultimate) and that will have a breaking effect on you, and also stretch the hamstrings a ton and elongate the amortization phase.

So instead of a quick glute hip snap, you're going to have a long, hamstring-initiated hip extension.

Do you do high bar or low bar squats?

I put 130 kg yesterday high bar to do calf raises with and I couldn't even imagine myself getting down (not to mention up) with that weight.

For example, if I try to jump off my right leg, I will be EXTREMELY quad dominant and jump ~20 inches at best.

I don't.

I suck at one leg jumping without the ball. The basic idea is not to push with your knee/quad, but to "pull yourself" with your hamstring/glute. Easier said than done.

For example here, it says "Re: New hosting" in each post's title, with the 0 and downarrow uparrow overlapping the "Re:".

I will NEVER understand people posting pictures of their food. It's something beyond my understanding powers.

Damn... that's a pretty... "sharp" drop from where you were. How much you weigh right now?

Have these tempo runs had any effect on your bodyweight in your opinion, or was it just nutritional adjustments?
