Yeah I have no idea how that applies to a long jump. I mean, if you put all your power to jump in length there's still going to be a hangtime number... I have no idea of physics too well so I don't know.

Yeah hangtiming it from the heel rise to the heel back on the ground (since the center of gravity rises when the heel rises, so you're basically "in air" when that happens). Also these numbers make sense so I guess they're right.

I can jump a lot higher with that mini ball than without it... I just have a "purpose" to jump when I hold it.
And the jumps were 36 inches for Nightfly at the slingshot attempt, 28 inches for me at the low rim, 31 inches for me at the high rim off one ... so ... you know...

Interesting thing: the next day after these squats I'm having a lot of vastus medialis soreness while the vastus lateralis isn't at all sore. With the high bar squat the reverse used to happen.

I think I got 0.04 or 0.03 at some point when I was in high school and I used to play all day long with this... me and a colleague did this endlessly. It depends a lot on the watch, I probably couldn't do that with that watch you have in the movie... I had a normal hand watch that I did it with.

It's crazy because I was thinking yesterday, when I saw you write LEVEL 7, about crazy stuff like this:
Have two walls: one wall behind the athlete and one wall 100m of the athlete ahead. Also walls to the side, so the athlete is running in a cubicle. Now the walls in front and back can raise and lower to block the athlete. Have one hungry/angry bear released 100m behind him. Both walls hit the ground and block whoever is in between them as soon as either the bear or the athlete cross their respective finish lines (for the bear it's the athletes starting line, for the athlete it's a line 100m ahead of that).
So basically, if the athlete finishes first he'll be OK because he'll have two walls in between him and the bear. If the bear finishes first, then the athlete will be trapped in between the two walls with the bear inside that space as well.
I was thinking about this because my sister said to me when we were in the mountains that she thought once you see a bear you should run... so I saw LEVEL 7, I thought about all this ^^^ and now I dreamed what I wrote above.
Crazy shit and correlations happening in the brain. Maybe that stupid center (basketball player) was the bear? Whatever.

I just had a dream tonight that me and Nightfly were preparing for a sprinting competition. We were in the front of my building covered while it was raining and we were waiting for some other athletes to run (through the rain) to the competition so we can follow them there.
They went in but it was kind of strange because even though the guys went by us we were like "OK, these guys won't show up (WTF) so we might as well go by ourselves there".
So we went to the competition in rain having those athletic thighs on us, and into a building of some kind where there were doors and walls in between each sprinting lane. There were doors at the starting line so you could see the guys on the other lanes but walls from there on forward so you couldn't see the other people, like you were sprinting alone (we might have something here?).
And as we came in we saw one of the centers for one Romanian basketball team in the 1st Division that we always make fun of at games... he was there preparing for his sprint. But he wasn't in what you'd call a regular sprinting stance...he was positioned sideways like he was about to run through all the doors ahead of him (along the track). Maybe he knew something...
I didn't have a chance to see what happens because my phone rang to wake me up to go to work...
