I’ve always been a bodybuilder more than anything else. I’ve always liked trying for balanced proportions and noticing what to bring up and what might even need to come down. But nothings more impressive than strength athletes. I’ve followed strongman since I was a teenager. I wish I learned or was taught how to leg drive, back arch, tighten my scapulas for a better bench. I’ve watched videos, mendelson, Jennifer Thompson is great. I just find it so foreign to me. Just excuses I guess. I have a decent vertical standing from two feet or running and jumping off one foot. I could never figure how to do a running then jump off both feet vert though. It just felt impossible so I didn’t bother, not that I played basket ball either. I’ve been telling myself all my life thatd I’d learn to moonwalk too lol. I just need to make these things serious goals. Embrace the discomfort.
