what does RAW mean? i see it alot in squats and stuff,

[BROZKNOWS]

@xChriz503 no belt, knee wraps, squat suit, squat briefs, 47 spotters, hydraulic racks, etc.

Doesn't he round his back a lot in this vid? Or is that 'expected' because he's hitting 1RM.

[BROZKNOWS]

@openaccessuser it's not that acceptable, however his flexibility is a major reason for him switching from O-Lifting to Powerlifting.

@BROZKNOWS Have you had problems with some of your athletes on ankle flexibility? Does heavy calf stretching and calf work over time help?

[BROZKNOWS]

@Snarfdmypants stretching doesn't help, but catching heavy cleans and getting smashed on heavy squats seem to work good.

This gym brought Gary Coleman back to life and taught him to squat.

[raiden824]

Jesus is there anybody at your gym who doesn't have a ridiculous squat ?

[xChriz503]

@BROZKNOWS ah alright, thanks

[glomr]

I just noticed the weight lying pretty much on the neck tending forward in the lift, wouldn't he be able to 1RM more with a low bar squat?

[PWDr93]

@BROZKNOWS whats the best way to improve lower body flexibility?

[BROZKNOWS]

@asborisov1 actually we switched sports for him. He competed in an AAU powerlifting meet.
