Squats for Mma

[JimRussel]

You've never seen anyone dive bomb squats?

You mean descend very quickly while maintaining control of the barbell? Yes, of course.

Are you equating that to “flopping”?

Some the shit you ask and post for how long you’ve been here and lifting for blows my mind, dawg.

You have got some rabid dog obsession about flopping ever since I mentioned it

Are you having erection issues?

 

[belph]

No lift

Tut

It was a joke.....

A+ material.

So far we have you arguing in a room by yourself, and have also discovered your erection issues. It's been quite the ride, Jack

Question

Are you grossly overweight, combined with steroid abuse? Is this what causes you to "flop"?

Is this a third @jgarner alt?

You’re very concerned about my dick, a scenario you’ve completely created for yourself here. If you want to buy my underwear or something, you’ll have to direct your questions to my inbox.

With my posts do you really think I'm the type of guy to hide behind an alt because I'm afraid to say something unpopular?

Ever heard that saying about if everyone you meet is an asshole, then maybe it's you that's the asshole?

So...if everyone I meet is a jgarner, then...maybe I’m the jgarner?

You're the one who brought it up via you inexplicable flopping obsession. I simply read between the lines

And now you want me to start PMing you, probably because you have read flopping is a mental issue and think I can help

Well, Jack, you are beyond help

You will just have to keep lifting heavy weights to keep you feeling like a man

It's nice having someone obsessed with me. It's like being famous without the money or talent and success.

For sure. Raw talent really goes a long way. I still remember when Usian Bolt listed his "strength training" routine, and people took it as the gospel despite it looking like a bro-split

Ha, not only that, but Usain eats like shit and parties hard. Plus, he has atrocious form on his lifts.


Meanwhile, scrubs with lesser talent can track every molecule that enters their mouth while expert coaches correct every millimeter of movement in their lifts and still never come close to Usain's times.

Fair point

Seems like it's not a terrible idea though

Doing that many squats will build some insane leg endurance strength. Considering how fighters gas and then become stuck in the mud, having such crazy endurance would certainly offset that. Much more so than being able to squat 600 for a few reps imo

Do you really think thousands of bodyweight squats is a more productive use of one's time than squatting 600 "for a few reps"? Not that I think bodyweight squats are completely useless- they serve their purpose as a warmup to real squatting or as rehab/prehab. But you're testing the limits of diminishing returns here. If you wanna condition your legs, go push a sled or do some sprints.

Doesn't have to be thousands

Maybe a thousand

1000 controlled candence bodyweight squats in a row will build some iron legs

I really do think that is better than squatting 600 for a few reps in terms of MMA

It is kind of weird you always talk about guys riding your dick, rubbing your chest, etc. No one else in the forum makes references like that so we tend to wonder what the underlying issue is.

Here you come riding my dick again.

The banter and trolling around here can’t even be creative anymore.

At least @AlanGregson keeps things interesting. He just has a history of disappearing after he gets #rekt in every thread he makes.

Agreed. It was a goldmine for awhile but it's fizzled out. @jgarner quit going full princess stampy foot everytime he's corrected, which is often.
