Who says white guys can't jump? And even past that, who says FAT white guys can't jump?

New record for me, and I earned the respect of most of the gym tonight - I got comments like this:

"Damn! Boy getting some vertical!"
"I've seen guys half your weight who can't do that. Awesome job." (I'm 350ish right now)
"Drop 100 lbs and you'd be dunking on the ball court."

I feel awesome!

    I've been doing heavy squats for a while, and then spent some time doing squats for speed. That's what helped the most - weight training does more than just make you strong. It can make you quick, too!
