Adarq, ik you're kind of nerd AF with computers and I saw a laptop I'll eventually want.  I'll need your advice once they release the specs to make sure it's legit.

it's the razer "project Valerie"  basically what I like about it is it has 2 screens hidden behind the main one so you pull them out and you're rockin out 3 screens.

sheeit. yo ill check tmw. bout to quicklog and die.

generally speaking tho, if you need 3 screens, just get 2 monitors and hook up your laptop to it. probably alot cheaper that way and less dependence on razor. You can get a laptop with any specs and just attach multiple monitors.

it does seem cool tho.. you just dont want to be spending most of the money on the multiple screens part of it, and get gypped on the performance.

ahhh i remember now, his account is private. that actually makes more sense.

nice jump for 246 lb.

but ya i doubt he'd break 45" in his peak of oly lifting and jumping alot. there's definitely a possibility he could though.. 50+ tho??? nah.

It's interesting how some of the biggest SVJ numbers are from RB's and WR's. I think it's obvious with LB's and DB's having great SVJ as most of them have brute strength. I would expect the RB's and WR's to have awesome RVJ as they are lighter and would have better re-activity and speed than their heavier NFL counterparts. I guess that shows just how much power to weight they have though considering their SVJ numbers.

i'd put RB's in there with DB's though .. RB's are crazy in the brute strength department and usually weigh lighter/are shorter than LB's. WR's i'm definitely surprised though. I'd suspect they'd struggle a bit more given their "length".

ya man these dudes are such freaks. I haven't been watching the NFL combine much over the last few years, but I do watch the highlight videos of the best performances.

A combine where athletes from various backgrounds competed in SVJ, RVJ, 40 yard dash, broad jump, pushups/dips, pullups, and fuck it, an 800m run.. would be sick. :D

claimed 50+ vertical. could in fact jump pretty high, but stills purporting to show him jumping head-over-rim were really just pictures of him after grabbing the rim, doing a pull up and launching himself up from there. faaaaaker.

Didn't someone call it Penisgate or something because people noticed his junk was going the wrong way in that picture? lol

penisgate, the precursor to pizzagate. and ya i think that someone called it that. His penis being "upwards" in most photos reinforced the idea that he hung from the rim and kinda 'threw himself off' while posing to get the frame. For any future vert fraudsters, make sure you lock your penis down. :/

I realize we lost alot of that info when TVS went down.

Was going thru Klokov's instagram and i came across a vid he put up of him trying a vertec, he got 36" btw. I imagine at his peak as an athlete and if he trained for the vertical leap he'd have like a 60" vertical or something? just found it interesting. dude fucks around and hits 36" smh. no link available, you'll have to follow him to see it, it's private

if by 60" you meant 40"? typo? lmfao!!

also, this is perhaps the worst post i've seen on this forum.. next time please provide a link, i want to see it without searching!! WTF!

:D

I imagine at Klokov's peak he might be able to hit a legit <= 42" or so.. much lower than the debated 60". He's probably alot lighter now (correct?) than when he competed (105kg after weight cutting), he also lifts & trains pretty hard still.

I'd say these NFL freaks have a better chance at setting "world records" in legit SVJ than pretty much any other type of athlete.. They are fast twitch monsters, sprint/accelerate all day, lift hard etc. NFL db's seem to be the perfect specimen for SVJ.. though some of the biggest SVJ numbers are from RB's, WR's and LB's.

awesome article:

http://www.cheatsheet.com/sports/what-are-the-highest-vertical-jumps-in-nfl-scouting-combine-history.html/?a=viewall

Lots of defensive backs (corners, safeties) etc.. That back pedaling & those quads. But still massive number (45) for Cameron Wake @ 45" being a line backer.

These dudes are insane.

If I had to choose between NFL vs Olympic Weightlifters in an SVJ competition, i'd go with NFL. I think the speed component is what gives them the edge. Oly Lifters are perhaps "slowed down" just enough to affect their SVJ technique in regards to reaching their peak potential. Meanwhile, these nfl guys are always just primed and ready to launch with speed/power. They lift heavy/hard but they aren't at all overly adapted to it & thus slowed down like an elite weightlifter/powerlifter would be.

I'd love to see SVJ competitions or something though, then we'd really see.. Athletes from different sports/disciplines competing for $$ with SVJ.

pc!

Zion Williamson has perhaps the most stardom in h.s. since Lebron.. at least on the internet anyway. Kid has blown up beyond belief, and rightfully so .. he's only a sophomore lmao, WTF.

i literally just said "oh my god" out loud.

i kinda did that, but for this video



WTF?


damn this dude has some insane videos.. reminds me of Ehab, but obviously does crazier shit (from  movement/weirdness perspective) than ehab.

look at ehab doing hurdle jumps, with a barbell on his back (last exercise):



nuts. dude is crazy.

anyone ever used these to improve their uhm, abdominal aesthetics?

LBSS talking about the greek measurements in his log got me thinking - my waist is TOO BIG. around the navel is like 34+ all the time...even with abs. i look bloated aaaaaaaaaaaaall the time, enough for people to comment like 'woah you gained weight?' until i lift my top up and they like huh?

some of its probably my APT but other than fixing this i wonder if stomach vacuums could help? seems you dont have to dedicate much time to them, just wondered if anyone had any sucess?

i've done them (for several weeks) before to experiment, didn't notice much other than the ability to be more conscious about pulling my naval in.. lol :ninja:

most people seem to find them effective tho.
