Bigsparky- thanks, now if I can just do it in competition I'm in business.
Maldorf- My dad is Nigerian, born and raised there until he was 16 I believe. I have a pretty athletic family, my oldest brother was an all American triple jumper I was an all American sprinter. We both have pretty good verticals for our height at 5'9" he use to dunk with ease in high school. I dunked for the first time in 7th grade I was probably 5'9" at the time. We generally have explosive fast twitch muscle. Which is something I've actually been trying to exploit recently because I feel I've been doing too many static lifts, trying to implement more Olympic style lifting in my program.
