Progress Journals & Experimental Routines / Re: ADARQ's journal
« on: September 09, 2012, 01:25:55 pm »
i remember this session, i felt like i was going to just fly, too bad my ham pulled... single leg.. trying to become single leg was tough.. those hamstring/quad "pulls/cramps" really wrecked my leg

Yeah I guess a very good balance between the quads and the hamstrings is needed for one leg jumps. If the hamstring is weak then you will collapse in the plant and the collapse will be disguised as a quad weakness, when in fact the quads are being overloaded because the hamstring is too weak and to relieve tension off it the knees will go forward and overload the quads...

It's taken me a while to figure this out but this is actually the truth of the matter.

Maybe I should focus much more on hamstring development in my own training if I want good one-leg jumps. That and calf development.

That first dunk in the first mix looks better than anything I've thrown down at 10 feet I think, although I did dunk in games at 10 feet as well.

Did you do kneeling or standing ab wheel rollouts?

By the way, that squat weight was a joke for you.

I know you're supposed to, but I kinda tend to go a bit towards the toes when I go down (or at least I was when I was squatting high bar) and that loads your quads quite a bit more in my experience because it moves the center of gravity a bit forward as well so the blunt of the load is being taken care of by the quads.

Obviously if the knees are going forward then you'll lose hamstring tension and load the quads more as well.

The last thing I would've thought about was Lance being hyperdunk's son. Boy that explains a lot!

Sorry whilst I laugh at "typical liberal diversion". Calling you out on your hypocrisy elicits an interesting response. Sorry if I offend you but an embryo is not a "human being". Sure, it can become one, but preventing it from doing so isn't an act of murder. Why don't you cry for all of the other 149,999,999 sperm that didn't get to the egg? Sounds like you need a bit more science in your life. Also, try imagining that you have a vagina & try to see it from their perspective. The vast majority of women are "pro choice". Finally, what's the difference between aborting an embryo/fetus and raising it in poverty to horrific parents? Alot of those aborted embryos would probably grow up and kill you in a gas station robbery.

Thank you sir.
