That's absolutely correct adarqui.

It's interesting some vegetarians keep on talking about how we're supposed to be vegs, yet we have canines.

Man that would be great. I mean, time goes by, we all get old, it will be a shame, after so many years, effort, luck (in terms of genetics) to waste her talent. It really would. So I for one would love to see that.

I feel like I want to kiss adistarhj. Is that wrong? Illegal, yes, I know, but wrong?

You'll have to travel a loooong way then.. Have a good trip! :P

Haha, talk about gay people, they voted my comment -4. Then they talk gay all day long and be manly. Heck, their right to do it, but LMAO.

What I meant was - you keep things simple and you have a much more mature mentality/awareness than what you'd expect at your age. Those were the reasons :P

Another question, who's more explosive d. Rose or LBJ?

I think it comes down to what they eat.

Sorry, couldn't help it.

ha ha ha

i was just imagining meeting a girl with this in mind.

Me:  Ok so could you just turn around
Girl: um ok...
Me:  nice, nice...oh :(
Girl: what  ???
Me:  its just your calves
Girl: huh?
Me:  they are too low and large
Girl:  (starts thinking to herself: pervert...)
Me:  Yeah I would prefer someone with higher cut calves but it was nice meeting you...  Its a shame really, you were preselected for this date by your ass-- it really indicates an excellent ability to recruit the gluteus maximus but other parts of you were a letdown. Bye

Girl: :pissed:

Sticky thread/post material.

Interesting. I wonder how would your one-leg jump react to you losing some fat, if you have any to dispose of quickly and without muscle loss in the first place.

0:30 just doesn't make any sense. It's silly, but I just can't watch this without crying, literally. And no, it's not a matter of her being from Romania or whatever, it's just that I feel put face to face with perfection that's so impressive is overwhelming.

Cool thread I'd never noticed this before. I might consider incorporating a few weeks of progressive calf raises and some direct hip hyperextension work (isolated glute work) in the form of partner assisted or manual reverse hyperextensions, barbell hip thrusts, or sled marches.  You will notice a near immediate difference in the extension on your sprints with that.

Re: the calf work, have you ever had shin splints? Occassionally on some of your jumps your feet look to be under some stress.  The calf work would probably help you stay smoother absorbing force (see some of Steffan Holms videos and notice how quiet he is when landing on all his drills).  You definitely have the structure there to work with and a good nervous system.

Thanks for the comment. I do already do these exercices on a weekly basis. The reason for why the landings might seem to be a little ''un smooth'' is probably because I'm not used to my new spikes yet. It's kinda different doing them in long jump spikes vs triple jump spikes. When it comes to sprinting, I could definitely work on my technique ;)

What's the difference? I've always used sprint spikes, or at least I think so.
