  • @TaastyTom, probably the stupidest thing one could say..good job. Going below parallel is terrible for the knees period.

  • @RationalGaze9 lol Not true at all. You should really check out the book Starting Strength.

  • @bvb357 , if you have videos or better yet.. even a PICTURE of what you look like to hold any ground to your comments on bodybuilding or much less technique in exercise science.. be my guest to share that first before giving me advice. You're another one of 'those guys'. Spare me bro.

  • Fuck, those are some mad quarter squats. You should be able to rep 550 pounds at that height.

  • @RationalGaze9 He MAY not look as good but going parellel or below is better for the knees cus it releases tension across the kneecaps. look at oly lifters and strength trainers. you'll notice a difference even if you go the slightest bit lower because you'll be releasing tension from your knee caps and be able to use the bounce, just like anything military, bench etc

  • @RationalGaze9 I'll be the first to admit you're way bigger than I am. What you're doing in this video though, isn't a full squat but more like a half squat. If you're trying to increase your strength and improve your overall health, you need to squat deeper and go below parallel. There is no other book that explains the correct technique of a squat in more detail than Starting Strength.  At the very least, search google or youtube for Mark Ripptoe and see what he's all about.

  • You should really go deeper, below pararell. It puts less stress on your knees and also build a better ass, which you claim to achieve.

  • How many trainings per week you do?

  • DAAAMN ! I know that exercise well (no damn bench..YET). Going big dude, love it

  • I max out at pretty close to 400 lbs on a leg press machine, and my butt looks nowhere near perfect!
