Верхошанский, Юрий Витальевич

Yeah.

You know? But that intent, Verkhoshansky, like probably my favorite line of his was, "The rest pause is the most important part." Because the intent, like you brought up, the intent in your rest and your recovery, the intent in your nutrition, the intent of all these other things other than how f- did you hit 0.7 meters per second on your bench press, you know, like those other things and the intent behind them are what truly drive the performance.

And I think we miss that a little too much.

Well, it, it hides itself or rather disguises itself in a lot of different ways, man.

I remember when I got started, people said, well, you got to be able to squat at least two times your body weight to do plyos.

Now, Yuri never said that.

You got to, you know, all these

different...

And she's the one that hung in there.

So yeah, she's a saint in that way, no doubt.

Getting back to the book, let's put some more respect back on Doc's name because page 564, what's Yuri saying? It was popularized by my friend Michael Yeses talking about Mel Sif and then Bosco and it was like, Doc's name there, right up again, everybody talking about, you know, if everybody wants to attach the name Yuri Verkhoshansky on what they're doing with jumping and power, you can't not put the fact that Yuri's putting Doc's name on it and, you know, again, talking about Jay and Jeff Moyer and you being like Doc.

So, again, just throwing some respect on Doc's name right now.
