I had gone to him initially to improve my squat, which was stuck at just under 100. (Among other things, of course, like lose a few pounds, etc.)

One of the things he did after I got mouthy was stuck me on the freemotion squat machine, and had me do 5+5bounce x3 for 3 sets. Basically, 5 full squats, then go down, bounce below that parallel point (basically all way down to just below parallel, my typical sticking point) and then 5 more squats, 5 bounces, 5 squats, 5 bounces. Then 2 more sets.

I shut up.

fwiw... it really was helpful...








in um... well... I'll bet it's a great exercise for wanna-be pr0n stars.


no, really, he seriously helped my squat.
