ADARQ & LanceSTS - Q&A / squat form check and feet turned out while squatting
« on: September 23, 2012, 03:32:33 pm »
Hey Lance,

Do you mind taking a look at my squat vid. This is as deep as I can go. It's weird because I think I am doing it ATG style but on camera it looks like my hip crease barely breaks parrallel. I have on flat soled shoes so I use 10 pound plates as a heel lift. I also have to turn my feet out to a 45 degree angle to get down that low, my knees still track over my toes; but I'm wondering is this optimal or anything like that? Should I strive to have my feet pointing more straight forward? by the way I'm 6'3. I just wanna make sure this would be an optimal squat form while I strive for a double body weight squat.
any thoughts would be much appreciated man, thanks for your time.

ADARQ & LanceSTS - Q&A / Pain in right quad
« on: August 22, 2012, 04:40:01 pm »
Lance I'm wondering if you can help me identify this pain I have in my right quadricep. First of all this always happens either in my left or right quadriceps when squatting high frequency. Im not sure if it is a really deep soreness or a maybe something worse. Its hurts like it can't absorb a lot of force or something. First example, I was jogging for like a minute (late for class) every time my right leg hit the ground it hurt in the middle kind of deep in the thigh. I also shot around today on the court and did a few jumps this is when it especially hurts, right into the plant and when I jump it's like that part of the muscle tissue is deeply sore. And then I drove home from school and when getting out of the car my quad contracting produced the same pain. Do you have any idea what it is or any suggestions? I hope I was specific enough, any advice is much appreciated. Like I said, if I'm not suffienctly warmed up it will do that when I squat as well but when I'm warmed up it's not that bad, but can still feel it. It's much different from DOMS bc it's like pain, but also a soreness at the same time if that makes sense.

Any body thinking about getting them? Do you think they are accurate enough for the purchase? I know on YouTube it measures dunker JusFly at 49.9 inches on one of his dunks. The reviews on YouTube just kinda review the shoe itself and not the sensors, but I think it would be worthwhile to know how high I'm jumping on any given dunk or layup especially in a game. Any opinions? Hopefully Jack Woodrup gets a pair and gives a great honest unbiased opinion like he always does...

ADARQ & LanceSTS - Q&A / Half squat with transition emphasis
« on: August 07, 2012, 12:09:15 am »
Lance, I watched your YouTube video "half squat with transition emphasis". Is this video teaching how the half squat should generally be done? I mean would doing a half squat with a transition emphasis be a good squat to start doing for a basic general strength exercise? Thanks for your time man. You got some nice informative videos on your YouTube channel.

Introduce Yourself / I'm just tryna jump high
« on: August 02, 2012, 04:02:44 pm »
I've been searching on this site for a few months now, but now I just signed up as I figured I should contribute and maybe my posts will help someone's goals whether directly or indirectly. I'm also looking to learn and discuss with others about training and pretty much anything thats gonna help any one jump higher or perform better. I'm basketball player turned into a training addict. I still have a goal to jump 45 inches running. I think my last PR was me touching the top of the square after a basketball game. I think i'll start a semi-journal or something. Hopefully this forum can come alive again.
