Anybody who can sit down with this kind of weight is bad ass. Those sumo parallel good morning lockouts what I'm seing in the gym on daily basis ain't shit. This is a squat. Ass to grass.

lol like a fucking boss

Boe your legs outward, it works alot better, you can get much lower.

you all know your shit about weightlifting, yet you're all too stupid to see in the description that he's showing how to bail if you can't get it up

@darkhorseathletic It's on his bare skin, ok it that's how he wants it but I see heavier weights at least a T shirt is used I get the tactile feedback idea but some still do better with minimal cushioning. I also catch on about the spine strain thing. I've seen "squats" where the lifter is tilted with more than this. But do YOU catch on that this is supposed to be Olympic not PL? And that Olympic does go much lower than PL? We can all train any way we like.

@skirts365 Anything between the bar and a body is going to 1) decrease tactile feedback 2) compromise the ability to keep the torso as upright as possible, thereby applying dangerous anterior tilt contributing to QL strain and a bad lumbar spine position. Though hard to see from behind that squat looked like it would have satisfied minimum depth for PL comp. Finally, that was a nice bail

As you were squatting down, I thought to myself, "Man, he should have a spotter!" But when you sensed the lift wasn't going to work, you remained calm and let the weight down without incident or injury. It is a good thing for all lifters to see.

I think you could benefit from slightly wider stance and pushing your knees out slightly more. I mean slightly though. Good try, definitely more than I could ever even get under.

[ubersprinta]

@TeamSammon try a slightly wider stance which might help with your depth but otherwise technique was really good

[ballzyification]

awesome

I was speaking to some people the other day about deadlifting with a rounded upper back... the thoughts were, rounded upper back is better for lifting more weight but won't work your upper back as well as it's not in extension. My choices were reset the weight or keep going with it rounded (safe for upper). Anyway, I remember seeing your perfect deadlifts and thought that's how I want mine, so I will be patient and deload. You inspire me bro!
