You cannot judge sq depth from this angle end of story/ The judges had the better view., Iv had squats on vid that I know damn well were buried and from the front angle like this they looked high as hell. Its completely pointless to try and judge a sq on youtube
I would like to see if any of the youtubers out there can even keep up with Greg in the Warm up room. I'm pretty sure thats a no when Greg can rep 600 beltless with a close stance.
@lift2live1 470 is alot less than 1050,really not lookin for an argument -.- but what are you gettin at? i mean i know its still fuckin hard either way but i dont exactly like it when they use sumo stance. but i guess thats why my faovirte squat vid is the one where kirk karwowski squats 1003. i love how little his feet are spread apart and how low he goes.it aint 1050 but its damn close and looks wayy better.he also does 1k x2 at a non meet (also a vid) andstill uses a skinny stance.
@joemcbobinite 470 kgs, Andrey has also squated 480kgs single ply. he recently squated 450 kgs (993lbs) with only knee wraps and a belt, which is considered raw because no suit was used. Andrey is by far the best squatter ever to have lived....as you can tell I am a big fan of him haha but seriously check him out, perfect squats every time....My all time fav is Ed coan, but I agree that kirk was one of the best as well in terms of squats
lol you can just tell its his little keyboard friends that come by and thumbs up all his comments. no ones gunna agree with what these fucking idiots do
i cannot believe that was passed. it was far too high, end of. hes very strong, but the most basic criteria for a legal squat is for crese of hip to go at least parallel with top of the knees. no one bothers with that though, so records are just meaningless due to incompetant and naive officials
it wasnt parallel, end of. therefore it was not a legal squat, but then again these kind of meets are just ego trips and full of erections about the amount of weight on the bar, regardledd of whether it can be lifted or not.
dude everyone whos been to meets knows that the frontal view is almost impossible to call the depth from. the only way to do it is from the side. thats louie calling his depth and greg panora always goes deep enough. that dude is one of the most amazing PLers on the planet
im not going to entertain a long discussion with you, you obviously have the mental capacity of an ape
if you think that that was the same depth as a 'fag' oly lifter then you need your eyes checking. i dont even think that the lifters themselves would make such a claim. nor would they disrespect oly lifters because they know that oly lifters are phenomenal athletes, far more impressive than this hydraeulic suit 2 inch rom rubbish.
i respect these lifters because they are freakishly strong, but these feds are a joke.
and i cant believe that you called oly lifters fags, how old are you, 9? they are amazing, id like to see panora clean and jerk nearly 600lbs, and id bet if you took away those ridiculous suits the oly lifters would out squat panora and the other westside guys. because they squat to depth, regardless of what louie simmons claims.
actually panora can squat over 900 raw clown shoes. and thats without the gay bounce of the oly squatters do. and it is the same depth the only difference is its wide stance so its not quite the same distance but it is the same depth. and gay oly lifters could NOT squat wide like these guys do
omg how much of a pathetic piece of shit are you? calling oly lifters gay just because they compete in different lifts? grow the fuck up you immature shitbag.
and yes oly lifters bounce thats because they go right to the fucking floor. and no, oly lifters probably couldnt squat with their legs 2 miles apart and the bar on their ass, thats because theyre not pussies and do it raw. id rather see a closer stance and a deep squat raw, which shows pure strength.
ur an idiot. this is at an angle and ipf or not i guarantee this is legal. if its a straight on shot you will see his hip is parallel. and whats the difference with strength if its a BOUNCE that gets you up and not ur own strength. and oly lifters are really pure strength then while is louie simmons a strength consultant for multiple NFL and college teams? its because the westside method is the greatest method in the world u faggot
erm, did you ever wonder where louie came up with the the westside method? RUSSIAN OLYMPIC WEIGHTLIFTING BOOKS. yep, they thought of cojugate periodization years and years before louie did.
the difference is that oly lifters go so deep that the bounce will only take them up to about parallel and the rest is up to them, its just for a pop out of the hole, kind of how a squat suit works isnt it? except lifters in squat suits dont go anywhere near as deep.
yea and he has created even better methods using them. and whats the difference between using a squat suit and bouncing out of the hole. louie is in his 60s and putting up huge numbers still. squat suits are safer and keep you lifting longer. you can go ahead and try to prove something by going a couple inches deeper and bouncing up but in reality its stupid. and im not comparing an oly lifters number to these guys because they are different sports.
btw, you cant do that, you cant call oly lifters gays and fags and theb try and back out by saying that you cant compare, you started the comparison dickhead
i neveer said powerlifters werent strong as hell, and oly lifters arent trying to 'prove' anything. raw squatting has been around for centuries longer than suited squats, and olympic weightlifting even longer. if anything its stupid that geared lifters feel the need to artificially inflate their numbers with suits.
no buddy. YOU started the comparing when you came on this video and started talking crap about their depth. and its not about inflating numbers. its a different sport. its a much smarter sport. greg pulls over 800 and hes still young. all these guys are gonna be lifting well into their 40s and most likely 50s.
oly lifters are completely pure strength you fag, THEY DONT LIFT IN GEAR!!! not for anything, and they put unreal numbers up. you cant say that a squat or bench in a suit or shirt is pure strength because it isnt. i saw one oly lifter do an atg double with 680lbs, and he was 200lbs at the time. koklyaev, a former oly lifter squated 800 without knee wraps or anything atg. he also pulled 915 competely raw. find me a powerlifter that can do that raw and i will shut up. ive seen many other videos.
and looking at kirk karwowskis 1003 squat it doesnt look like he went any deeper than panora if you look at the hip crease you faggot. and panora is squatting at 242.
and if were going to bring up donnie, his world record total made me cringe. his squats were embarrasingly high, he didnt lock his deadlifts or bench presses out either. just face it. panora didnt go deep enough. yes he went to the same depth as the other lifters, but that is just the state of this fed, a disgrace. going every single feds rulebook, the hip crease should go LOWER than the top of the knee joint. he doesnt even come close. end of.
yea thats why donnie squats over 700 lbs onto a low box you clown. whether or not donnies were low enough doesnt change the fact that he hes stronger than all the oly lifters. and panora came parallel which is the rule. if you pause it at 9 seconds you can see that fool is folding under the bar. hes deep. and if you have ever been to a competition you will know that videos are VERY deceiving. they have vids up where guys dont even look close but in person they are well below parallel
ermm.....these suits do add about 300 onto your lifts, and while i know there is a lot of technique and training to learn how to use them.]
and ive already said that donniw is a very impressive raw lifter, but he is not stronger than alot of oly lifters. koklyaev squated 800 raw atg, taranenko did 830lbs for a triple, atg, with a 2 second pause at the bottom of each rep. rezadeh squats 700lbs atg like its shit all, and can through 600lbs over his head. donnie isnt stronger than these men.
umm donnie squats like 900. and you are comparing a brand new sport to how many years of oly lifting. in 10 years you will see freakish numbers come out of this sport. as this sport progresses you are going to see stronger men than the ones you named. and that 830 for a triple is a lie. and the suit CAN add up to 300 lbs to ur lifts. it doesnt for most lifters.
and you know when you go look at oly guys squat. the shws arent even able to go past parallel. their legs are too massive and they actually stop at about parallel. so to say they go deeper is false. a little more range of motion but not deeper. if you watch karwowski squat a G for 2 you can actually see that his hip barely makes it to parallel if at all.
@phatneazy my man ive read your arguments and your just a complete moronic muscle bear fag and it seems like the best of you fell out you mother's ass and made a brown stain on the floor. How can you call oly weightlifters gay when powerliftings about the gayest thing on the planet, no wonder why its gotten so little recognition. A bunch of homosexual cops and fireman, strong man and oly lifters roast these scum bags.
@phatneazy wow you truely are an idiot.... powerlifting is like 1/3 of a strongmans training. And those you actually were powerlifters must of seen how gay the federation was and switched to a real one actually reconized by everyone you fat homo:) YOU LOSE YOU SHIT STAIN OF AN EXISTENCE AND SO DOES THIS FAG SQUATING IN THE VIDEO ABOVE!! :)
That saddest thing about Youtube: Cowardly, inbred DICKS like yourself get to say stupid shit about things you know little or nothing about and then insult a completely innocent person -like Panora and, like a true cowardly dick never get to face the consequences of your mouth. I'm willing to bet you got the living shit kicked out of you as a kid. You may be a product of your parents, but you're still responsible for acting like a douchebag. I hope to God you aren't a parent or worse, husband
u faggots thinking that oly lifters are stronger because they bounce? go find some vids of donnie thompson lifting raw you moron and you will see what im talking about.
no, they are not stronger because they bounce you dickhead, they are stronger because they can squat properly atg with more weight than any powerlifter could. the pop out of the bottom from bouncing is nothing compared to the pop that comes from suits. nothing close.
and again, have i said that all powerlifters are weak? no. dont put words in my mouth to suit your own stupid argument, donnie is extremely strong raw, i doubt many geared lifters coould do what donnie can
yea and no oly lifters can do what koklyaev does so whats the difference? you are comparing apples and oranges. i dont go on oly lifters vids and talk crap cause they bounce. and panora did this back in 2007. hes doing over 1100 geared now. there is no oly lifter his weight that can compete with him. hes stronger than most guys in the 275 weight class
i never insulted powerlifters, you insulted oly lifters. and my point is that an 800lb raw squat completely raw to legal depth in a fed which is strict in rules is far more impressive to me than this geared stuff in which rules dont seem to matter
you honestly think that panora cant squat 800 without a suit when hes doing over 1100 with one? you think these are magic suits that automatically add 300-400 lbs to ur lifts? thats not how it works. there is a heavy amount of specific training used to get results with these suits. there are tons of guys that wont go more than single ply because they cant even use the multi suits
foottothroat21 is a mother fucking faggot, who hides behind his mommy's computer. He says he likes sucking the roider's cocks. What a fucking sick mother fucker.
yeah i cry alright. tears stream down my face whenever i read your little "...". what do you mean "we"? you can your keyboard warrior cult that love seeking attention on the internet? fuckin bunch of fags you guys are haha
@lutheranshadowpriest so what is your definition of legal depth cause accroding to the fed hes lifting in, legal depth is crease of leg/hip should be at least parralel to top of knee, and you dont have to lift in the ipf or whatever to know what legal depth is. thats like saying you have to have competed in wimbledon to be competant enough to know whether the ball is out or not.
I just thought it was interesting the worlds strongest man trains "squatting shallow." Also, it was not "far too high". It was pretty close to deep enough. Pause at his lowest point.
@hoodloom22 i never said that squatting above parallel doesnt make you stronger. but this is a powerlifting competition. there has to be a yardstick to measure whether its a legal squat or not, and going to parallel is a good one, its in all the rule books, but its not enforced. thus many squat records are meaningless. squatting a little high in the gym isnt such a big deal, but doing it in an official contest and having it passed is outrageous.
How does that make ANY difference at all? The squat is the down and up movement of the lift. You can clean the damn thing up for all I care as long as it winds up on your shoulders and you make depth.
Actually he might have been below parallel. with the new canvas suits, it's impossible to judge depth from the front. I was a national referee in powerlifting years ago. At a recent meet i was watching guys from the side, down at hip level and saw some lifters make depth on squats that looked 4" high from the front on video. Some feds are very relaxed in depth judging, butt he only exact way to tell depth is a side view.
with a squat that wide damn...

At a recent meet i was watching guys from the side, down at hip level and saw some lifters make depth on squats that looked 4" high from the front on video. Some feds are very relaxed in depth judging, butt he only exact way to tell depth is a side view.

his squat is definetly more respectable than chuck Vogepohls squat. Atleast Greg goes down closer to parallel than Chuck!

I saw him almost everyday before he started being a pro. I'm most likely the person that knows him best.
