Squat 285kg

[icegoguma]

hey bro, i see that youre not wearing knee straps, are they recommended for heavy lifting? or do they obstruct the lift in any way . thanks

[chezkenny]

@icegoguma you mean knee wraps right? They help lifting heavier. But in "raw" Powerlifting wraps (and a squat suit) are not allowed. So I don't use them.

It looked like a good depth to me.

@mycheesesteak thanks bro! For a gym Squat it's ok but as far as competition it wouldn't be legal depth.

all ur vids are soo impressive and u always play good music!!!...is this a high bar postion on ur squat???

[chezkenny]

@tom88cba thank you!!! Yes it's high bar cause I stay pretty upright and it's the only position I'm really comfortable with

When you got that much weight you don't want to just drop down too fast and risk your form. Good job bro

[chezkenny]

@dt76028 haha! Thanks man. Yeah I couldn't drop fast even if I tried to!!

is there a reason the eccentric is so slow? i feel like the slower eccentric could be really hard for a good concentric portion of the squat especially with no stretch reflex out of the bottom

[chezkenny]

@thebigbearlouis Thank you, that's a good point. I don't go slow on purpose. It's something that I need to work on.
