You need to dorsiflex when you bound, which you currently don't. That's why you have knee issues (at least if you always bound like you did here). You kept the ankle extended here and landed in plantar flexion which loads the knee up like a bitch. You need to land with the foot more under you than in front of you and that will also allow you to dorsiflex better.

Nah it's more of a technical analysis about one-leg jumping. Some people aren't aware of what they do wrong technically when they jump off one leg. Also, it's a good resource of true plyometrics and programming.

If he's not in shape, then that doesn't bode well for me getting really tired after half a mile. ;D

What about high jump? (Sotomayor)

Do you intend to go up again in bodyweight and improve your strength even more? More bodyweight is not that bad for SVJ purposes.

Haha maybe, there are some beasts on this forum though.

Hey thanks for the compliment!

Heck, everything is great, not just that.

I really like what he said with one-leg jumping, that "isometric-explosive" part. Nobody ever talks about that and I've said that first I think about 9 years ago, that the one-leg jump is more isometric in nature (keeping the leg rigid).

This^^^

We'll see how this gain in half squat strength/speed correlates with your jumps in the near future.

I should write again and say "he's still at 60% bodyfat, he needs to lose some" and see what he responds. If he says I'm right again, then he's not at 20%

 ;D

He said it himself that he's at ~20%

Well it's more to it than just bodyweight. Due to the effects a lot of bodyfat have on your posture, you will load the muscles/tendons/joints differently than without that much bodyfat. But yeah, he's not "that" fat.

- L R plant focus on the balls of the feet without heel touching the ground

Don't ever do this again. And focus on lowering your bodyfat and nothing else.

You should forget about all this ^^^ and focus on reducing bodyfat. You're both wasting your time and destroying your body/joints jumping at that bodyfat %.
