Olympic lifting will do the most for your vertical. Work cleans, snatches, and an assortment of plyometrics. I threw shotput and discus in high school and was quite good with the disc, my standing...
Just plain, straight up 99% or 100% pure creatine monohydrate. It's cheap, and completely tasteless. You do not benefit from a flavored, much more expensive variety.
I agree. You can supplement that cup of coffee with a Vitamin B Complex pill for a few more pennies. That's been my PWO in the past, though I can't say I've ever tried a commercial PWO to compare it...

Try to imagine the Olympic lifts like doing a standing vertical leap (just with the bar in your hands). You can try jumping as high as you can and will notice that you will have great form for the...
I take a glucosamine/MSM supplement I get from Costco once a day. After running out, I stopped taking it and my knee pain returned, started taking it again and it had greatly reduced after a couple...
Hip drive is alright. You could work on being more explosive (though I think it might have been because the weight was light for you). Try to drive your elbows up faster, they are lagging behind when...
