I don't doubt the zoom waffle racers at all. I have been training in a pair of Adidas Fluid trainers. Probably not quite as light as the Waffle racers  but pretty light, very comfortable, nice flexible soul - basically awesome.

They look good with jeans too.

What about naked? I really like women in high heels when naked though.

Oh yeah Raptor. I look good in them naked too. But I look great in anything naked due to my extreme buffness and super tight abs.  8)

I also like women in high heels and no clothes. It is a strange combination really to like. I mean if you are a women and yo uhave taken off your clothes, presumably to ahve sex, then surely it isn;t that big a deal to whip off the shoes too! Oh well, that is pornorgraphy messing with our modern male psyche for you.

Yeah but I don't want her to whip the shoes off too. I like to keep them there. Makes her butt more rounded and anteriorly rotated, which looks much better. Plus it elongates the legs.

I have about 62-64...

From what I know of, the heart of all the animals has pretty much the same limit in terms of lifetime and beats. The only difference is that for some animals it beats faster, for others, slower.

couch potatoes live longer??? they're hearts have less beats than athletes for sure.

ya i disagree with raptor's statement, it's not like the heart is a clock and will just run out of battery at some predetermined time.. it's usually not the heart itself that is the problem, it's usually arterial wall buildup of plaque etc, stuff like that.. a heart can pretty much beat for a really long time if everything else is healthy.

There's nothing to disagree. The only thing is the coach potato will have other problems and heart limit isn't going to be the determining factor of his problems.

I'm convinced that high frequency squatting is the thing for me. It's no coincidence that EVERRYYYY TIMEEEEE that I miss a single workout day, or it gets delayd by a day, I HIT A SLUMP. Some people might say "oh, its  a nice deload, you'll come back stronger" but it never happens to me!!! Fuck it, I'm doing smolov jr for at least 3 weeks when I have break from college.

Well if you listen to Pfaff's acute relieving syndrome and chronic fatigue syndrome, maybe you'll understand more about what's happening. Search for them (although I'm not sure if they are well represented anywhere other than filmed seminars).

"Weird dreams" in what way? Positive or negative?

Dreaming is good, it only occurs during REM sleep so that's deep sleep which is very resting.

Haha yeah I'd really like to visit New York, but Miami is cool too ;D

Problem is - time is passing by. There's only a small window of athleticism... which is fading as the days go by (unless you're training and getting better, that is :D).

I'd really really like to see Vince play in real life... time on THAT is going by rapidly.

That goes way back... to the days when I was being a member of the streetball.co.uk forum some 7 years ago... we used a similar smilie like crazy. It's meant to be a "sarcastic" smilie.

« on: December 07, 2010, 04:01:27 pm »
Yes I am... nothing fancy, I'm using 30 kg for the moment... but it's great in terms of movement, so natural. I'm still kind of afraid to use more weight (maybe it's not such a good idea afterall until my form is great) - but I definitely do them better form wise than cleans. In the clean, I can NEVER EVER keep the elbows forward... if I get one elbow forward like I'm supposed to, the other one must be perpendicular to the floor. It can't go forward ONE BIT no matter what you do. Weird stuff to say the least, I have no idea what this means in terms of flexibility (what muscle is inflexible).

So I either do the catch with the elbows perpendicular to the floor and all the weight being amortized by the hands/elbows (since the bar is catched on the chest and not on the deltoids) or I don't do the catch at all... I don't know. I haven't found anybody to answer that question about the inflexibility (or maybe I should widen the grip but that doesn't correct it either).

Anyway, the snatch feels so much more "athletic" if you will.

Standing jumps ARE quad dominant. But in a correct sprint start, you better believe the posterior chain is engaged A LOT. I think if anything, the posterior chain is always engaged in a sprint, while the quads are only engaged in the begging more and the hamstrings start to kind of take over after you get out of the dig phase.

EVERYTHING IS AN ABSOLUTE! CONTEXT DOESN'T MATTER, WHAT I DECREE IS LAW AND ANYONE WHO DISAGREES IS A FAT PUSSY OR A SKINNY PUSSY OR BOTH! MY LIFTERS ARE STRONG SO YOU SHOULD TRAIN LIKE THEM! I UNDERSTAND EVOLUTIONARY THEORY AND THE HISTORY OF SPORT BETTER THAN ANYONE WITH THAT THERE BOOK LEARNING! BOOK LEARNING IS FOR PUSSIES! ATHLETES OFTEN RUN 30 MPH AND GET CONCUSSIONS! THE BEST WAY TO TEACH THE FORTY IS TO HAVE YOUR ATHLETE FACEPLANT REPEATEDLY! JUICE IS EVIL! I AM KNOWLEDGEABLE BECAUSE MY LIFTERS ARE STRONG SO YOU SHOULD LISTEN TO ME!

I remember the worst... it was that slow guy that jumped like 4 inches for the rebound jump.

it was some hockey guy, he lands and loads up for like 3 seconds swinging his arms back and forward, then jumps like 4".

lol

Yeah it's a way to suppress the stretch reflex, which is exactly what you should do for a depth jump since that's the key: remove any reactive rebound from the jump. Oh wait... :ninja:

Maybe he read that it's more important to get higher than jump quicker, and he gets the highest off a standing vertical jump so he dropped, stopped and did a standing VJ. Or he could be retarded, who knows?
