I heard Shaq is/was also wearing a special mouth piece "designed" (marketing) to make you crush your teeth harder and therefore increasing body strength (through the process of irradiation).

If I'm some kind of a "vert training hero" in Romania with my limited knowledge, you can imagine how the others are doing. :ibsquatting:

I never knew plyos are about sweating!

Oh boy, this depth jump thing must really suck!

Nah, you couldn't be further from the truth. I mean, yeah, some are obsessed but under no circumstances are they "available" for hard work whatsoever.

The real thing is I'm actually known in the country as being the "vert guy" and all that silly thing and people usually ask me questions, so I send them to TVS and adarq.org . That explains all these people from my country on your forum.

OK, stopping with tooting my own horn here.

Yeah well I get that a lot when I sprint in my spiked sprinting shoes... it's really great, basically those sprints have a pluralism of effects... ;D

I wonder what 20 rep squats do to strength in that regard. I think you can correlate that with 400m sprints for 100m sprinters.

On the same token, I wonder if jumpsoles really work. I mean, even spiked track shoes act a bit as jumpsoles since the forfoot is elevated vs. the heel.

Well it's a good way to sneakily promote honey. Honey means sugar. Sugar means death. Nice one adarqui!

+1 on the high socks.

I actually heard one guy told me I was "weird" because once I wore socks up to the mid-shin. For that I was weird and strange. That's too bad.

shit i forgot to mention, you should change your penultimate step, relax a bit more, and use more p-chain.

And yeah I actually kind of need to, I could be jumping so much better. Good point.

sweet dunks emil:great job!
you seem to be able to dunk on that rim so effortlessly...I am so happy to see that from you my friend!
BTW, watching you guys throwing it down makes me feel like I must record some new stuff myself during these holidays....


Yes you should ;D

And yeah, I have another video where I just look very "light"... like I'm not weighing ~85 kg... I don't look like it. I mean, I still plant at a pretty high speed and my run-up is smooth but I guess that's just how I am naturally or something. I do look better than last year though... then I was just "fat". Squat is higher this year as well so I guess that explains it.

nice dunks on 9'11, i never see you throw lobs why not? they fun.

nice high socks too ;)

Here's a hint: maybe because I suck at lobs? I couldn't catch a lob to save my life. And I jump like 8 inches less without the ball in hand.

I don't think so... it's not a matter of digestion, it's a matter of liquid being in a pressed stomach that goes up my throat...

why not man up?

What about pushups with a weight on the back?
