Basketball / Re: acquille carr goes for the dunk

I finally see a small guy choosing to go with a one leg jump (albeit missing the dunk on this one). I rarely see small people choosing the one-leg jump (almost never).

Fuck, sorry to hear about your grandpa. That has to be so hard, I mean seeing him like that again and again... I just won't comment anymore on that subject unless I want to post in the emo thread.

Yeah I probably should've gone with 20 kg. The problem I see is that I kind of go towards the toes/quads when I load and land, although I try to do my best to keep it hip loaded on both the take off and landing. My heels just come up and that's annoying.

Yeah that sounds good. So you're not currently doing and sprint technique work, like teaching you how to move, how to "step" on the ground, what the proper mechanics are etc?

Yeah that's a good point. If I bend forward while doing the BSSs I load the quad anyway, so...

By the way - does anybody have any comments on my 1-2 jump squats in terms of loading/rebound speed etc?

By the way - I kind of like to do my BSSs "close" so I get more quad into it. I view it as a quad assistance exercise and not posterior chain, so I do them with a close stance, and with the knee bending quite a bit. I did enough of them really spread out.

Probably Alonzo, Karl Malone and David Robinson in the past. And don't forget Robert Pack. Oh, and Corey Maggette.

Yeah it's tough to explain... you just look more "mobile" and without any weak points... you just look like a complete athlete in these stills. This is the first time I see you as that if I'm to be honest. Before, you just looked "fine". But in these, you look "complete". If that makes sense. Not sure what's going on. Maybe lack of sleep is good. :P

But the landing and downward trajectory sucked hard.

Haha, that's a 37 cm "box"... so 15 inches...

And I hate how "weird" I do my SVJ...

You look substantially higher/more "athletic position" on a lot of these snapshots.

BSS, especially with dumbbells, tire the heck out of me.

Yeah, why doesn't that smilie work? If I want to use it I have to copy the image location and add it like a regular image.

Anyway, yeah, if you'd throw the ball from the right side of the floor you could go for the backward dunks off lobs.

What kind of work do you do that your coach labels as "technique work"?
