people ask me how to train, and i answer "i look at what you do and then i do the exact oposite"
if your family was captured and you were told you needed to put 100 pounds onto your max squat within two months or your family would be executed, would you squat once per week? Something tells me that you'd start squatting every day

What is your opinion on yoga?
Its very good for flexibility, which i've read helps jumping/athletic enhancement. but would some of the postures be counterproductive to plyos and strength training? (i.e. like holding different lunges for extended periods of time)
Thanks,

Tuesday: speed and agility training for half an hour
Wednesday:OFF
Thursday: Max Effort lower
Friday:Upper
Sunday: box jump variation before Strongman workout
Can I get to my full speed potential while just running for only half an hour once a week with strongman? what makes people fast? I heard it takes good strength to bodyweigh ratio and flexibility and you barely even half to run. is this true?

Sir, with those stats, and you claim to have played college football, you should be in the NFL. If you really had those numbers while in a Collegiate program an NFL scout would find you... 46 in vert..... please.Originally Posted by Mac85
I have a 37 in. vert and that is near unheard of.
E stats.BB Bench: 270
Squat: 315
Deadlift: 405
Vertical: 37''
40 yard dash: 4.53

my avi is from 165 lbs, i don't take progress pics cause something about standing in front of a mirror to take a pic of my bod seems a little queer...

I'm quite surprised this thread has run so long.
We all know the muscular characteristics necessary to improve vertical jumping. When you include the value of mechanical specificity into the equation, the training methods to improve the vertical jump is quite straight forward.
It's worth noting that training only the shoulders (no lower limb training) may still yield up to a 10% improvement in a vertical jump with an arm swing (most sporting applications); so, training should be weighted by majority towards lower limb strength/power development, though should not neglect the shoulder (due to it's contribution to the outcome).

Can't wait for the International tour to begin.
Wallabies v Fiji on Saturday, Barbarians v England on Tuesday, Wallabies v England next week! ... Fortunately I live in Perth so get to see those last two games live.
Sevens IRB on tomorrow night (Fox Sports) following the Wallabies/Fiji match as well ..... gotta love it!

nah I play union. I said league because in some of the tournaments we have they have a "premier league" or "premier division" which are the top flight teams. then there's men's club, then men's social. premier division are the teams made up of Div 1. and Super League guys.Originally Posted by Bignik92

I'm not necessarily saying anything fancy. Personally, I like using a strike move in the 10-12 or 12-13 channel aimed at making the linebreak (for example the blindside winger using 12 as a decoy, springboks did this well twice vs lions, ireland did it vs springboks in the 2009 end of year internationals) or, if you prefer, something moving the ball out wide using dummy runners in the centres to commit defenders.Originally Posted by toad1
The semi and final were moved to Orlando Stadium, which is out in the townships. The people who live around there are almost all black people whose preferred sport is soccer (though everyone loves rugby in SA) so the semi- and final attracted soccer crowds.Originally Posted by Nicolas_Hart

I know the other teams in the tournament were probably different, but I'm willing to bet a lot of these guys had never played 7s on top of having limited time to prepare for it.★cVc★
