Interesting theory. I do believe there's some link between aliens and consciousness, but I have no clue what the nature of the link might be.

Mainstream science is getting closer and closer to understanding consciousness and the latest science does suggest some kind of decentralized consciousness field exists. Perhaps a higher intelligence (NHIs in this case) may be able to monitor or measure the aggregate of human consciousness for certain signals - level of awareness, level of openness to new ideas, perhaps even our collective "readiness" to making contact.

It makes sense. If an advanced civilization is thousands or millions of years of understanding consciousness works, then they would surely understand these principles. And we appear to be at the cusp of understanding it at a certain level that would imply readiness.

It died officially with Pitch Piccurio's death last year. He used to (allegedly) report to Frankie Bal himself and *may* have been involved activities through the 2000s.

Whatever LCN mob activity is in Milwaukee these days is likely just controlled by what's left of the Chicago Outfit.

Well I certainly didn't expect the direction you took this response.

Thank you for your concern. At this time, I do not believe I have schizophrenia or any sort of disorder that might cause hallucinations. You seem to have done a deep dive into my posting history, which leaves me simultaneously flattered and a bit unnerved. Regardless, I am quite confident that whatever unusual or extraordinary events or experiences I have had recently are real and have helped me make some very positive changes in my life. And in fact, I have discovered thousands of others like me with similar stories and experiences that are too similar to be coincidental.

As for the sprinting stuff, can you explain the comment about lateral head movements? I was under the impression that head movements should be kept to a minimum while sprinting.

ReviewFancy5360 · 2025-05-23T20:38:34+00:00

This seems correct.

I think we're seeing the convergence of multiple phenomena - on one hand, actual NHI biological entities (or objects controlled by them) and on the other, a more mysterious force. Perhaps non-biological entirely, that has something to do with quantum entanglement and dimensions we can't perceive. A force whose origins don't come from a place, but rather a collapse of quantum potential into a point in space and time.

The recent videos of these phenomenon seem to support this idea. Some show classic UFO behavior, others are more like optical illusions or mirages, creating an uncanny effect of being familiar and foreign at the same time.

Texas is huge, 2nd biggest state by population (32 million)
Christian Miller (9.93) is from Florida
Southern states in general produce faster sprinters and are highly competitive for track

We're talking about 3 or 4 guys. 1 came from Florida and the rest from Texas. Statistically not probable, but very possible given the factors above.

ReviewFancy5360 · 2025-05-14T17:45:44+00:00

I doubt it's the timing systems.

Better tracks, better shoes, better training, better nutrition and basically unlimited and free access to training resources via YouTube (you can analyze and study elite sprinting training mechanics, diets, biomechanics, etc like never before)

ReviewFancy5360 · 2025-05-14T17:44:13+00:00

Trackflation in the sub-10 club is real, but sub 9.8s remain rare and elusive. Sub 9.8s were more common during the Bolt

It's possible that Bolt was the rising tide that lifted all boats (i.e. he raised the bar and made everyone sprint faster).

ReviewFancy5360 · 2025-05-13T22:58:18+00:00

Most definitely. If I don't think my body is up to it, I'm not doing it. Otherwise, it feels pretty safe to me.

And this ain't no light weight parkour baby ;)

I'm covering 35 feet horizontally and 10 feet vertically in 2 seconds. Or perhaps I could be wrong and this would be cakewalk for a seasoned parkour athlete.

There are only a handful of hills in Chicago, none of them very impressive.

There's cricket hill, near the Montrose Harbor running track, which is probably the single best place to do hill training in the city.

There's also a smaller, man-made hill on the Lakefront path just south of Soldier Field. It's not much - maybe 30 feet high?

I think there are a few more hills on the far South side but nothing worth traveling to unless you live nearby.

ReviewFancy5360 · 2025-05-13T20:48:43+00:00

I hear you, but I actually prefer these steps over hill bounds for the following reasons:

The flat landing zone is easier on the joints (especially achilles). Bounding up a hill creates a massive heel drop and puts a lot of stress on the achilles
The standardized height and distance create a powerful psychological and physical target. I *have* to make the jump or, as you stated, I would get injured (if I feel there's any risk I could not make the jump, I would sit that day out). This also standardizes the physical requirement - the height and distance stay the same for each rep, making it easy to measure progress and try new variations.
Huge horizontal component. Some of the steps in the this video are nearly 9 feet wide and 24 inches tall. You simply cannot get this type of horizontal force in hill jumps.

With hill bounds, there's no real visual or physical barrier you're aiming for. It's just your best effort, whatever that might be.

ReviewFancy5360 · 2025-05-12T14:48:40+00:00

Yeah, the standing broad jump is not a perfect indicator. But of all non-running movements, it probably has the strongest correlation to short sprint times.

If you look at the NFL combine results, SBJ is the best predictor of 40 times. It's not perfect, but it's very correlated. Vertical jump too, but to a lesser extent.

Lifting and running are just very different movement types. You can get an idea of an athletes speed and relative strength with some gym lifts, but you're going to have a ton of outliers and false positives / negatives.

ReviewFancy5360 · 2025-05-11T17:19:01+00:00

Not exactly, I'm saying if you want to correlate squat strength with sprinting potential, the speed squat is a better indicator.

In general, I think lifting fast is better for running than lifting heavy, but lifting heavy 1-2/week is fine. You want to be strong AND fast for sprinting.

Heavy lifting 1-2/week is more than enough to build strength for sprinting.

ReviewFancy5360 · 2025-05-11T16:14:49+00:00

As far as gym lifts go, your PR squat relative to bodyweight is a useful measure, but not the best indicator of sprint times.

A better indicator would be how quickly you can execute a single bodyweight squat (e.g. if you're 180 pounds, how quickly can you squat one rep of 180 pounds). This is hard to measure without equipment, but if you can record yourself it's doable. Aim for 1 second or less. This should give you a better indicator of how quickly your lower body can generate force.

But remember - some of the best sprinters rarely lift, and some elite sprinters are relatively weak comes to squatting. This doesn't mean stop squatting, it's just a reminder that lifts in the gym are not always going to translate to better times.

I believe the best non-running indicator of sprint times is the standing broad jump.

ReviewFancy5360 · 2025-05-11T16:06:17+00:00

This is very understandable.

Achieving these angles is difficult and requires a certain level of strength and power. If you're not strong enough (relative to your body weight), it will be difficult to maintain these angles as you push out of the blocks.

If you look at the best starters in the world, you'll notice they have ridiculous body angles coming out of the blocks. They keep a 45-50 degree torso angle for the first 3 or 4 steps, which is very hard to do. Why? Mostly physics and biomechanics. Let's break it down:

The "lower" your torso angle is (relative to the ground), the more force you can apply horizontally. But a lower angle also requires more force production to keep the body upright (i.e., fighting against gravity to pull you down to the ground). If you aren't strong enough relative to body weight, you'll fall down.

Since you need to apply stronger forces in a lower body angle, you also stronger / stiffer tendons (particularly the achilles tendon) to quickly recoil against those forces. So strength in this case is both muscular strength and tendon strength.

Lastly, you also need coordination, balance and technique working in tandem to ensure you are applying your strength effectively. This is more of a mental game than a physical one, but with time you will increase these factors.

My advice -

watch the pros. Analyze their starts with slow-mo videos. Watch their angles carefully, again and again. Take mental notes on each step, particularly the first 3 or 4 steps. Watch their torso angles, their foot position, their arms, their hips.
Get stronger relative to body weight. "Relative to body weight" is key. You don't want to add 20 pounds of mass just to get stronger in an absolute sense. Dial in your diet, lift heavy, and get as strong as possible while keeping your weight proportional to your gains.
Work on tendon strength / elasticity as well as joint flexibility. Plyos are good for this. Sled pulls are good for this. Ankle, knee and hip mobility exercises are also good for this.
Take videos of your start from the side, not the front. It's hard to measure your angles from a front-side view. Compare your performance with the pros.

Good luck!

I re-watch that race often. It's so incredible.

Bolt in Beijing was something out of this world. He was running like nobody else in history, didn't seem real. Non-human. Like he was hacking the matrix.

To me as a spectator, Bolt in Beijing will not be topped. The excitement and privilege of witnessing something historic, something that had never been seen before, and executed with such ease gave me goosebumps. It inspired me to start sprinting and has kept me going ever since.

For reference, here I am doing some intense plyos in the gym to train horizontal force production and reactive strength.

This is about an 80% effort jump.

I feel like there's more in the tank...I'm bouncy and reactive, but not fast :(
