that dodge ball dunk was HARD.. really nice. jumps without the ball looked great, very aggressive.

next stop 37  :wowthatwasnutswtf:

You SO have a dunk with a regulation ball if someone throws a well placed lob!

LBSS, is it just me or is your run-up to the dunk pretty unorthodox? Don't mean to be critical, but it just looks like you don't maximize your elastic energy in those last few steps. Of course if it works for you that's another story, but the arm movement doesn't look quite in sync with your steps + your last step isn't the typical long, spring-coiling-like motion that I see in most jumpers/dunkers.

totally fair question. my answer is: dunno. DL dunk approaches and plants are idiosyncratic even among the elite youtube guys, so i'm not sure there's anything like an optimal way to do it. and my approach has been grooved over hundreds and hundreds of reps. tweaking or retooling it at this point has a high likelihood of throwing me off and low likelihood of success -- what, specifically, would i even change? -- so i'm just going to stick with it for now.

yup, makes sense. do you have a sideview of your jumps by any chance? curious how that angle looks

As of late I've been working on improving my air humping skills. Finally hit 200kg for 5 reps on hip thrusts today. (440lbs) I will probably not go any heavier than this because it becomes a bitch to set up at a certain weight and with heavier weights (even with a pad) I always bruise my pubic bone area which feels pretty damn uncomfortable. I would rather squat 200kg for reps but hey, I take it! :D

Damn that's fucking nice, 200x5 in the hip thrust is no joke. Where did you start from, initially, and how long ago?

Thanks man! :) Started at 100-110kg like 2 1/2 months ago and a lot of the initial gains was just due to getting comfortable with the movement.

i've never done a barbell hip thrust. I used to love high rep glute bridges tho. ;f I need to get back to those eventually, i'm gluteless without targeting them.

good stuff Leonel.
