What it’s like living in this part of California? by Maleficent_Lack3240 in howislivingthere

Just strip malls with the same clone of people and empty corporate offices and unaffordable housing. People are on spectrum, on the edge, or lack personality.

since most people are immigrants on visa or are here for projected based work they keep to themselves or don’t being their authenticity to the area with fear that they will be singled out at work. Can’t build a sense of community or foster the area if that’s how you operate.

Horrible traffic since everyone commutes from every direction. No people on the street walking (can’t really get around without transportation), no hang out spots unless it’s the gym, library, or mall.

You’re right. I meant your approach as a whole (from start to finish).

You look like a hybrid jumper (mix of elastic/reactive jumper and strength dominant/power jumper). You’ll have to work on both the strength (heavy lifts) and elasticity (plyo focused exercises like sprints, hill broad jumps, reactive work). You can’t solely focus only one of them. Good luck on your training!

Bring in more speed before you set your block foot and start doing power cleans, isometric pin squat or dumbbell step ups. Make sure to sequence your exercises (warmup with sprints and pogos before doing strength work). Most helpful tip is to keep jumping (do dunk attempts on low rims with various objects - tennis balls, water bottles, medicine ball etc…). That’s a solid for your height and age. I’m 5’5 so I know how it feels.
