What's the difference in the cavs and the heat.  Dwade? Because Chris bosh sucks. If they wanted to win championships they would've been better off with Wade going to Cleveland, at least they had some type of bond,lebron seemed happier, and if you say he wasn't , i never seen a sad man dance so well, but they had chemistry and lebron knew how to play with them, they were just missing a dwade. Chris bosh seems unhappy and did I mention he sucks. Good luck with them 8 plus ring that they'll never get  
I hate the heat ! Though I'm a heat hater, I don't think my bulls will get one either, so I'm rational.

Ladies and Gentlemen, I give you...

THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE CAVS AND THE HEAT

In the brown corner, THE CITY OF CLEEEEVELAAAAAAAAAND




In the red corner, THE CITY OF MIIIIIIIIAMIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII




Edited thanks to adarq the South Florida native's eagle eye. My point stands.

getting pretty good on pullups. way stronger than me, although admittedly it's a pretty low bar.

Big shot Billups does not goof around. NYK!!!

yeah but aren't you trying to replace him there, chris? shouldn't you be trash-talking him at every opportunity?

if ecdysteroids are so good for muscle growth, why dont we supplement with them? this supplement has 300mg of ecdysterone in 1 serving: (http://www.google.com/products/catalog?q=300+ecdysterone&hl=en&safe=off&client=safari&rls=en&prmd=ivnsfd&biw=995&bih=602&um=1&ie=UTF-8&cid=2047406819286203688&sa=X&ei=9xFrTfeGBpSatwfCiPnmAg&ved=0CFcQ8wIwAA#ps-sellers)  i try to eat about 1lb of spinach a day. how many mg of ecdytserone does 1b of spinach contain?

it depends on the athlete, but, in general, most people need "heavy explosive", since most people are weak.. always "as explosive as possible" with heavy weights.. max acceleration is a must, the descent can be controlled, but the transition from ecc to con has to be explosive as possible, accelerating all the way through to the top.. that's how you improve explosive strength to a greater degree than just lifting slow.

There was an interesting test I once read & it corresponds to guys I mentioned who lift light (Bruce Lee, Tyson Gay, Usain Bolt etc). Two groups were divided to perform squats. One group trained at a slow rate, and the other at a fast rate. The fast group took 2 seconds to perform each repetition, 1 second down and 1 second up. The slow group took 3x as long. Both groups were tested in their before and after abilities for broad jumping and the strength of the individual muscles of the legs. The fast group increased their power output in their hips and ankles more so than the slow group, and more significant was the improvement in fast group's broad jumping performance. The slower group did gain more overall strength, but the increase in power output was higher overall in the fast group.

Guys like Bruce Lee, Tyson Gay, Usain Bolt etc train primarily for power NOT mass or incredible strength.

What I'm trying to say is, would you better off going 1 second down and 1 second up (increased power output at the hips) as opposed to going "semi" heavy/heavy (more strength incremental based) lifts to increase your VJ?. So going to heavy seems to decrease your power output when squatting.

It's like when you want to increase the speed of your punches by throwing out weight plates. You have to use a weight that offers resistance but at the same time the speed factor is majorly important. You can't go too heavy because you bury the speed element (power).

Was the study done with the same amount of weight between groups? Because all other things being equal, I think the idea is that you should lift the weight as explosively as possible. If your squat 1RM is 400 lbs, then 385 is gonna go up slow and 225 is gonna go up fast. But both have their uses.

Squatting with a bar + weight is vastly different than squatting with just bw. Get a vid of that and see where you're at.

Just from everything I've read + my own experience, you should really be getting in equal or at least equivalent work both pushing and pulling. I feel you on the limited time, though.
