i know this is off topic sorta


but i was watching videos of olympic lifters competing...and this one guy lifted an insane amount of weight. he then put the weight down, was really happy, and jumped up and down. he was jumping so high it was rediculous

that's why I'm oly lifting

if your body can handle it some depth jumps from 20-24inches may give you some quick gains

well, what kinda of working out do you think i should do? plyos and sprints?

depth jumps

Is that like jumping on one block at a certain height, then onto a another, then another (ascending in height, of course)?

Well you can do depth landings and depth jumps.

Start with landing first and then move onto jumps, use the depth landings as a warmup before depth jumping

depth landings - step off a 20-24ingc box and land on both legs bending them and abosrb the shock

depth jumps - the same except you jump up as high as can upon landing, land on the balls of your foot and spend minimal contact time. don't bend your legs too much.


well I gained an inch or two from the Smolov squat program - well you expect that with 3/4 inch gain on my legs
