Have you ever tested your vertical jump, Veeky Forums? According to Mr. Mark Rippletoe it's the best indication of genetic power.
I just tested mine and got 21.5 inches.
You can test yours by stretching your hand as far as it can go up the wall without your feet leaving the ground, and then making a small pencil mark at this point. Then, perform the vertical jump holding the pencil in your hand and mark the wall at the highest point of your jump. Then measure the distance.
I've seen a grown man fall just as hard to a bullet to the head as a child soldier. That image makes no sense.
What're you on about Op?

I sure hope you're fat desu

I sure hope you're joking cunt (for your sake)

Perhaps it's not literal.
And even if it is, being physically strong will save you in numerous situations where a weak man would die.
Austin Ward
FUCK dude, Mark was MASSIVE back in the days.

>According to Mr. Mark Rippletoe it's the best indication of genetic power. Good reason for never trying it, Rip is a hack.

Vertical is such an American meme. Hugely overrated.
>The highest female four step vertical ever at Nebraska is 32.5" That's for all sports, it just happens to be Hannah Werth of volleyball. >Think about all the great athletes to come out of Nebraska and 32 is it, the best ever. If you were to check other D1 schools (let alone divisions with 2nd tier athletes) they have never had female athletes over 30".

That pic is dumb.
One slice of the knife to your vein. One bullet through your brain. One knock from a vehicle.
Can easily kill you, regardless of your strength or muscles.
Stupid Rippetoe.
Brody Adams
A bullet or bomb will kill the strongest of men just fine. No one can escape death, Ripplenipple. No one.
Ryder Jenkins
Never tested my vert but that sounds low as fuck. Are you white?
Vertical is all about technique/body mechanics. If you squat down to jump, your shins and spine must be parallel, then your vertical will be high. Basically, the opposite of low bar squat form (squat mornings).
Matthew Baker
I suspect you're mistaking vertical jump height for box jump height or similar.
David Rodriguez
Go fist your mom you tard

>being physically strong will save you in numerous situations where a weak man would die. Not really. Generally being good at some martial art so you can at least hold your own and having god tier cardio and sprint for running is way more useful.
Jayden Anderson
No I'm good. Your mom's still good to go, go fist her like usual.
Michael Roberts
having a black belt in bjj doesn't help you through a car crash
Liam Evans
Neither do tons of muscles. Sometimes you can get kinda saved from these situation by bracing properly though. Better have all bones broken than end up as a vegetable.
Wyatt Martinez
Can you two shut the fuck up?
Owen Rodriguez
Eh maybe I'm just being cocky but I'm sure I can clear 2 feet (24 inches)
Carson Ramirez
not when im fucking sister right now

I'll just fuck you in your ass while you are

Josiah Morales
It's not him in OP pick, this is Sheiko!
Jacob Campbell
Well that would be true for the average person. But ask a powerlifter to jump and you will be disappointed.. And BTW that is not Rippetoe in your meme it is Roger Estep.
Parker Ward
>tfw slow reflexes, no explosiveness >also have exercise induced asthma, so suck at endurance events as well >short legs
Eli Wilson
i have never tested but i'm 6,3 and i can dunk pretty easily to a full size hoop so is it decent?
David Peterson
You do realise there's actually a couple of cases of giant bearmode guys surviving a hail of bullets that killed everyone else caught in the fire because they just had so much mass. Obviously point blank to the skull you're probably fucked either way.
Also blunt force trauma, and slashing.
Gladiators were basically bearmode, but this doesn't really count as the wounds were intended to be superficial rather than lethal, but it allowed them to survive slashes they may have killed a spoopy skeleton
