    In university I when I was going for my NSCA cert, I did I short presentation on squat jumps to finish leg day. So Mike's joke about jumping at the end, was no joke at all.
    Keep em in the power phase, 3_5 reps all out, 2 sets. 12% difference in 8 weeks between control/ variable groups.
    I would not suggest weighted jumps unless you're very advanced, the landing is very dangerous.

      But you can defs grow them with heel elevated BS, just don't throw FS in the bin 🥺 think of the jacked and juicy upper back you could have as well as enviable quads.

      I don't know what kind of elbow pain you have, but I also have elbow pain - golfer's elbow, tennis elbow, and distal bicep tendonitis in my left elbow. High-rep pump sets on the bench press using only the barbell, maybe twice a day, has been incredibly effective at healing these injuries. Pain has been reduced probably 85% after doing it for a couple weeks. I learned this from Martins Licis.
      I typically do 50 reps, rack it for a few seconds (like 5-10 seconds), then do 20, rack it, then 20, done. More effective than ibuprofen.
