  1. get some steroids like the rest of them.


  2. squats

  3. yo

  4. 1.  Trampoline.  Jump on alternating legs - one leg hitting the tramp - with toes raised as high as possible while burying the heel into the tarp, and on the upstroke, push off the balls and toes of your foot while swinging your arms up.

    Warm up to this so you're not sloppy in your technique - don't want to sprain an ankle.

    Gives you a lot of extra pop without risking the shin splints of toe raises/dead weights etc.  

    2.  Also, pull heavy objects sliding along the floor or grass (depending on your area of the country) with shoulder harness - alternate forward pulls and backward pulls to address all areas of the leg.

    3.  Vertical jumps off the bottom of the pool in about waist to chest deep water.  Again, low risk of injury, while adding muscle and power to your jump thrust and foot/ankle motion.

    4.  Run short wind sprints backward intermixed with wind sprints forward.  

    5.  Walk three powerful dogs - harnessed together at the shoulder - so that you can lean back against their joint pulling, and resist them their entire walk.  Works muscles you never work otherwise and you'll feel the burn in a new way.  Works legs, core and shoulders/biceps.


  5. work ur core

    box squats increaesed mine by 4 inches in 3 weeks
