Here is part 2... (Oct-06-05)

As promised, here is part 2 of the report...

I rushed to get this out to you because I know it
can really boost your efforts, sometimes by as
much as

--> 15%... in just 1 workout!


How?

Well read on, my friend...


-2-> Head - Butt - Eyes - Heels - Butt
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

Upon stepping under the rack and placing
the bar across your traps (back of
shoulder-blades) you must follow the
order, keeping your transverse abdominus
(TA) contracted at *all* times:

-> HEAD
Standing straight up under the weight
of the squat bar, make sure your head
positioned vertically - *not* looking
upwards, as some say... or downwards.

-> BUTT
Lower into the squat, initiating the
squat using your butt instead of your
knees.
This is important, as most athletes
& people tend to initiate the squat
through their knee and this can cause
a lot of undue stress because the knee
then becomes the 'weakest link' and
all pressure is transferred there.
Instead, you want your butt/glutes
to become the 'weakest link' and
allow initial stress to be placed
there.
This is crucial - the primary move
should be through your glutes/hips,
not through your knees... it is much
safer... and the hips play a more
vital role in jump height anyway.
You want to imagine sitting on a
toilet, not allowing your knees to
vertically pass your toes. This means
your shins *must* be as close to
vertical as possible.

-> EYES
During the entire descent, make sure
you lock your eyes on your own eyes.
Obviously, you'll need a mirror for
this - it helps to ensure you don't
look upwards or downwards.
I'm not going to go into the hows
and whys of this - just trust me.

-> HEELS
At the bottom of the squat, ideally
you want your thighs to be parallel
with the floor, with your TA and butt
contracted safely.
This is where your heels driving
through the floor helps. Instead of
standing up, you want to apply as much
pressure to the ground with your heels
as you can, imagining your are trying
to bust through the floor with your
heels.

-> BUTT
As you start to rise, you'll be need to
be tightening your butt and semi-
thrusting your hips forward.
You will immediately notice this
increases the weight you lift and takes
the stress from your knees.


That should do for now.

Go over this a few times before you apply it to
the squat rack...

Head - Butt - Eyes - Heels - Butt

Head - Butt - Eyes - Heels - Butt!!

H-B-E-H-B

H-B-E-H-B!!

Get up and try it in your living room or your
bedroom now (without weight to perfect it)...


Go on!

You back yet?

Good.

Tomorrow I'll be sending you part 3 of this
special report.

This one will be very important and answer two
questions that *especially* relate to those who
want to increase their vertical leap.

... sounds like you and me!

======
And...
======

I'll also be sending you the details of a f*ree
and very limited-time-only gift.

After you'll read tomorrow's report, you'll see
how this gift will assist you...

Whatever you do - DON'T MISS IT.

I'm not in the habit of giving things away for
f*ree, but this time... I don't have a choice!

Other than that, if you haven't already done so,
I *stongly* suggest you grab yourself:
