    Ok, I got a question for u guys. Almost every time when I jump (by jumping I mean one leg jump as high as i can, like dunking a basketball) I spin like 270 to 360 degrees. Is this because my “central” body muscles (or whatever it is, sry my eng is not perfect) like abs, ribs, back etc. are weak? Or do I jump wrong?

    exercises like this are good. If you’re having issues with basic one-leg stands, focus on a single fixed point at eye level. Focusing like this, especially on something with a horizontal line, acts like an artificial horizon for your unconscious mind. Finally, if you try to focus your balance in the central spot just behind the ball of your foot (the chinese call this the bubbling well, look it up on eastern medicine sites if you aren’t sure where it is) helps as well.

    I’m not sure I followed this: what muscle groups were undergoing the plyometric exercise? It looked like only the calf muscles were affected, but when you returned to the ground, you stopped. It didn’t seem like you re-loaded (stretched eccentrically) the calf muscles and jumped again, to make it a plyometric exercise. I don’t think this affected the quadriceps that much since you never flexed the knee all that much. That limited any stretching of the quads prior tojump. Any help? thanks.
