Good form?

first rep was definitely fine. 2nd two not so sure... felt bad. but then i stood parallel to the mirror and tried to mimic how my back/form felt while deadlifting, and i looked to the side and my back was still straight.

it appears my DL form is better than i thought  :ibjumping:

Yeah, if you can "read what's written on your chest" then you're good as far as chest/back position IMO. Obviously not the only thing, but you get the idea.

Not taking credit for it, heard it from Bret Contreras first.

Off of 1 foot. I'm not able to dunk off 2 feet yet but my 2 foot jump is improving rapidly especially in comparison to my 1 leg jump.

33'' svj.
half my hand is above the rim, which is just shy of 10ft.
squatting has contributed to busting this plateau I've been at in my svj for months.
"Performance during stretch-shortening cycle exercise is influenced by the visco-elastic properties of the muscle-tendon units. During stretching of an activated muscle, mechanical energy is absorbed in the tendon structures (tendon and aponeurosis) and this energy can subsequently be re-utilized if shortening of the muscle immediately follows the stretching. According to Biscotti (2000), 72% of the elastic energy restitution action comes from tendons, 28% - from contractile elements of muscles.

So my spike reach went from 336cm to 344cm. First actual PR in 8 months. 8cm straight up. I now have an 89cm RVJ (35") and much work ahead. Next goal is 350cm spike reach or 37-38" RVJ.

Point of thread: Having not PR'd in 8 months is tough but if you keep at it, it will happen.

I forgot to mention, in addition to my previous PR, my block jump or SVJ went up 1cm also. So,  :personal-record: on that. That's at 321cm now. I need to figure out my reach, I don't know if it's 255cm or 251cm. I also got an RDL record a while back, although it was supposed to be 3 reps. :/ Romanian Deadlift 125kg 2x2 PR - Set Thursday, 28/06/12
