angle of knee for me determines the squat..
0 -full
90 -half
135 - quarter.

FLANDER - u suck at taking a depth check pic. 

its a quarter.. could be 1/3 but massive leg is creating illusion of more depth.

Well 0 is impossible. Your thigh would be in the same location as your tibia

How much time do you think that guy invests into dunking vs. yourself?

If full is only breaking parallel, than that's 1/3 squat.
If full is atg, then that's 1/4 squat.

Decide on "full squat" first!

First than, and then then?

LOL, I watched over 500 games with VC... he's (was) the reason I watched the NBA in the first place. He's the only guy I genuinely care about in basketball.

Any ideas why has your vert "suddenly" increased? Any particular reason or just good ol' plain consistency?

Blood, sweat, n' tears.

The beard gives you that little extra viking strength.

Hey thanks man, I always knew my beard had something special in it.

Right...

I knew it was the Sprite thingy

wtf? i mean if those fossils actually exist then of course it isn't a hoax, but, where would one go to see those fossils? never saw pictures liek that before..

Well apparently they found them in the Bucegi mountains (Carpatians or Carpati as we call them). Now this is silly because one camera crew should be able to just go there and film them if they exist, but apparently nobody did that yet (as a full report, I mean).

There's also talk about some "giant rooms" into the walls of the mountains, perfectly aligned etc.

But of course, you need to see this first hand before you believe it.

Well I recover kinda bad after KB swings but I'll keep doing them until my body eventually adapts to them in some way.

In terms of bounding, bilateral bounds, of any kind, are impossible at the moment because the amortization phase is incredibly long. It's like when you put a good standing vertical jump guy to do consecutive maximal (or even submaximal) jumps - he will suck very hard at them. I don't load at all on any of them. It's basically a jump, a crash, a reset and then repeat.

And then I can't do single leg bounding on my right leg. So as you can see, things are pretty messed up. My idea is to keep on doing sprints first, then do limited bounding. And by limited I mean say 3 bounds. And focus on these 3 to do them quick and powerful and all that. When I can do them well I increase to four and so on. Also it might be a good idea to do some sort of tuck jumps of jumps on spot (say jumps at the rim) for a while until I can at least take in SOME energy before and after each subsequent jump.

It still doesn't make any sense whatsoever why is the bilateral jump, of any kind, so unnatural. I guess because people (me) walk unilaterally, they don't hop on the streets on two feet. A one-leg jump is simple because it's just an exaggerated natural movement, an exaggerated "step". To me, at least.
