Leon Carlier Squatting

[ksnab]

lbs?

[Nickolcka59]

You call that a squat? lower and lower back squats are easier

[traviswr5]

that is some bad fucking form, it was scaring me to watch him do it

[Docksy]

why are these squats still described as both heavy and ATG??

[johnnyjayramone]

dude thats bad form - youre bending your back part way through the movement - seriously, thats just asking for injury.

i respect the effort though dude

[ironmikexx]

Not bad considering, definitely not ass to grass, but 405 for 3 is god none the less. Whats with the gay sissy pad on the bar?

[arniemonkey]

@ironmikexx 405 for three is pretty lame theres loads of guys do that with ease

[ironmikexx]

I realize theres loads of guys that do it. I was trying to give a guy whos pounded iron everyday some props. I've got vids squatting 800+ on you-tube myself and vids of 405 for reps of 20,......WTF have you done lately arniemonkey?

[arniemonkey]

no vid buddy what a liar checked your channel no uploads just stick to watching miley cyrus lol

[ironmikexx]

Maybe cause its not under my own name, look under Talo2000 account its in there. Whats wrong with Miley Cyrus? My kids love her.

[sarethums]

This is the worst posture ive seen in a long time!

[Stianlolz]

Seriously, that is NOT ass to grass!

[drtcan]

Hearing those plates rattle reminds me of how hellish it is to be under some tremendous poundage repping out squats in the weight room. I can just feel my quads catch fire and my lumbars threaten to explode! great video.

[dstoll6815]

ass to grass? no. not a bad weight to squat for your weight i guess...not impressed tho. keep workin brah

[PowerSprinter]

lets see you do better

[nateakabear05]

Not ATG but not bad. 405x3 is good regardless. I would suggest some more core work like goodmornings and a lot more ab work to keep your back from bending so much coming out of the hole.

[hayeder]

good job on the weight, the last one kinda turned into a good morning though - ouch. maybe go a lil lower for fuller leg development, I would call those parallel squats.

how tall are you btw?

[QuinnBoucher]

A little too much bend in the back, but those are some legit squats, great job.

[BILL92691]

good job, now i want to see you doing calf raises with that kind of weight!

[thecaspianzf]

Nice job. Little bad on the back lifting so be careful on that. You don't wanna round your back when you start going over the 4plates cause when you have to dump weight or you fail it's going to go very badly.

[Musk1e]

Parallels - a little too much forward bend. But impressive at your height. Nice.

[jpl315]

thats maybe parallel...not atg ha

[duceiraeandthozguyz]

agree,,,..... maybe parallel but deffently not ass to grass... and keep your chest forward and fill your gut with air not your chest before you lift. it will help you stay tight and keep from bending to far forward. remember number 1 thing people do wrong when squating heavy is fill there chest with air not there gut. always fill your gut up. you will never squat 600, 700, 800 or more with a chest for of air.

[deadiva]

your knees shldnt cross ya toes...gd lift tho...slightly lower wld haf been better...

[25loganc]

GO DOWN MORE DUMB F&CK

[i3igpete]

not ATG.

[asddfkfkfkfkf]

THATS A DEEP SQUAT! YOU FUCKING RETARDS!

AND THAT IS PARRALEL....HENCE FULL FLEXION FROM THE QUAD AT THE KNEE...'PARAlLEL'

ALL YOU LOT ARE DICKHEAD FAGETS! GOING ANY LOWER THAN THAT IS DANGEROUS! AND BACK DOES PLAY A ROLE IN THE SQUAT OBVIOUSLY NONE OF YO HAVE EVER DONE POWERLIFTING!

[Sentoguy]

Parallel means that the top of the knee is parallel to the crease in the hip. I might give those parallel, but ass to grass, no they're not. And you have no idea what you are talking about if you think that going lower than that is dangerous. Tell that to some olympic weightlifters sometime.

[ramjam92]

going below parallel isn't dangerous for the knees as long as you are going down slowly and under control

[lozandaims]

he is pretty damn near parallel , a little to buch bend in the back , oh and great job from the spotter !

[Fen3rbahce]

not ass to grass,but still good lift.

[ah93704]

you're a strong dude but you need to lessen the weight..you're back is getting too into the lift and you could hurt yourself..you're very strong though

[vansavage08]

just let the man have the squat damn

[nigga1981]

MONSTER!

[RoboRobp]

Nice but your back completely folds over and you just reach parallel. Still that is a lot of weight to move even close to parallel so great job on that you are definitely strong enough to lift the weight it is just that little distance and your back that are messing you up. Keep your head up and focus on one spot and keep your abs tight and that should solve your problem.

[polychronopolous]

ass to grass....no. Good set....yes.

[ipopowerlifting]

that must be long grass

[TheTrueFortress]

Ass-to-grass? Uh, no. Not too bad, though.

[madaozeki]

Nice squatting, but those are barely touching parallel, if even that... definitely nowhere near ass-to-grass... If you want to get used to ATG squatting, start with 135 and work up again. When you hit 405 you'll be a real beast ;)

[DJ600man]

2 things

1. ass down and head up...this will prevent u from hurting your back because u are putting a lot of strain on it by having your back horizontal and not vertical. Looking up will also help in making you keep your back vertical.

2. like the guy below me said. widen out ur stance just a little bit. this will work out ur thighs more and not just the muscles near your knee

[rocky7891]

look at the rod its bending like a bow!!!!

[trancegen]

Use a wider stance, mate! this will put less stress on your back, and you can get more drive from your hips. Depth is fairly good. Looking at your deadlifts and squats, you seem to be a bit less flexible, so a wider stance will work better for you.

[bumboclat2]

Arent the green plates 10kg ?

[scondore]

those are plenty deep, they're parralell, and he's maxing so good job, the only thing is ur backs benind a LITTLE 2 much, still a great lift.

[ageofempires]

good job

[JESUSISLORDAMEN]

hey guys, this guy is not competing, 180kg is a good squat Amen, ass to grass is not necessary as long you go paralell your okay. Jesus is the way AMEN

[wdchuk20]

heavy...yes...but an ass-to-grass squat?...hardly...not even parallel...bad form...by the way ass to grass means just that...all the way down

[widenbauer]

only 85 views!!!

[surfnaked87]

wow that's pathetic, im a 62kg lifter and i just did 180kg for 3 reps and went way lower then that

[widenbauer]

hey leon, you have a critic, a little dude!!!

[leoncarlier]

Im not competing against him. Im sure everyone in the world can do it very easily. I really only put my lifts up so my friends can see how I am going. Im sure at 62kg he can deadlift twice as much too. Its Ronnie Colemans Illegitimate lovechild.

[widenbauer]

hey dude, the green plates are 19.5 kg or 19.6, which would translate to 178 to 178.4 kg, in pounds would be

392.4 or just above. 405 pounds is just under 184 kg!!!

Great effort!!! Luke's comment, nobody does that natural, must be the gear. I doubt it though. Could have gone a bit lower, too!!! Next time.
