  • good progress but gotta work on form in those lifts man, especially the snatch. Hate to say they look pretty sloppy, i know its worked so far but imagine the gains if u had good form and better flexibility. Judging by the squat your hips look a little tight and, while the added acceleration at the top of the squat may feel like its a smart idea, this only means that the weight will fall down harder adding pressure on your spine and knees. Also basketball shoes are bad for weight training

  • @iplayit4jesus yeah, it's not an instructional. I won't dispute that the technique isn't great. Moving the bar as fast as possible is beneficial on squats, and the bar landing on you when you're in an upright position is not even worth mentioning. basketball shoes are not bad for lifting. they're just not ideal

  • @jumptrainee1 ill agree that the shoes arent "bad" but arent ideal. however the speed aspect of the squat should be emphasized through full ROM in the concentric half of the lift and not just at the top

  • @iplayit4jesus yeah. move the bar as fast as you can for the whole movement. i agree completely. it's just a lot harder to move it at the bottom, so it's gonna be slower down there

  • @DjGoGo09 In Tom's case, he has good natural athleticism. Increasing his strength while doing just enough to maintain his springiness was very effective at increasing his jump height. You cannot argue about me on this particular case.

    White people only train strength? Have you seen my videos? shock plyometrics and Olympic lifts are my favorite exercises. I am far more trained in those areas than in my strength. And because of that, it's strength increase that makes my vert go up. Weird, huh?

  • @DjGoGo09 bilateral deficit, overshoot phenomenon, cell respiration, kreb's cycle, phosphocreatine energy system, lactic energy system, these are things I know. What do you know?

  • at 0:41 I thought he was going to fall

  • woah im not gunna kill my backweight squatting jus to dunk

  • stay off your toes on those squays

  • @jumptrainee1 or how I train the weightlifting, I am positive his form is not perfect lol.

  • @jumptrainee1 no need to worry about youtube people agreeing with your training styles. People fail to realize every athlete is different, they wont all look the same when they squat or whatever. Its about finding what works the best for your athletes. 5 inch improvement in 5 weeks is huge. especially when the jumper is starting at an already decent vertical. I train track athletes, increased a kids high jump from 5'4 to 6'2 in 5 months and I am sure everyone will tell me how wrong his form is
