if he goes to OKC, they'd have to get rid of russ. otherwise there aren't enough possessions in a game for both of them to be on the court at the same time.

canned beans are extremely good for you and don't require cooking. mixed bean salad with chopped veggies for crunch, maybe some feta cheese, olive oil and salt and lemon juice. add rice and hey-presto it's a one-bowl meal with carbs, protein, fiber, vitamins, and fat.

« on: June 21, 2018, 05:43:43 am »i didnt watch those videos but i dont think an exaggerated pause is by any means necessary for doing a pause squat. The notable thing is that you slow down the eccentric intentionally and for a brief moment reach close to zero speed then continue the rep - nb, this is a continuation of the eccentric bc that kick you see at the bottom is a downwards motion before the reversal occurs. The key thing to keep in mind is that the pause itself happens before the eccentric completes
lol @ "close to zero speed." what you are describing is a normal controlled squat. in your videos you are clearly still using the stretch-shortening cycle and any slowing on the eccentric is just slowing, not a pause. and that's fine! they're good squats! but calling them paused squats is flat-out inaccurate. at the end of the day it doesn't matter, it's just irritating. fwiw i intentionally posted videos with a short pause rather than an exaggerated pause.
like, the other day donald trump jr posted a video of himself half-squatting 300 pounds and claiming it as a squat PR. 300 pounds is a solid amount of weight for a middle-aged man to have on his back. good for him! but what he does with it is not a squat even if he says it is, or he meant to do one.

what you are doing in those IG vids is a good normal squat.
