@DKDIESEL93 lifting*

@DKDIESEL93 you re a bit wrong in this... quarter squats and box quarter squats when you do them along with atgs and box full squats, those are the real deal.... full squat is good for synergy, great for strength, but isolating some muscles and ligting more weight can help explosiveness A LOT... so try mixing them... also mixing exercises will keep your muscles guessing, which will give you a lot of versatility in every movement ;)

Okay So what if I spoted something wrong like benching and maybe 2 mistakes but half squats are better than full there more for burning and building I'm currently a hs athlete and half squats are fine but everyone needs to under stand tht it's not easy same ppl on here saying tht there doing it wrong probably couldn't take the pain.... End of my case

@DKDIESEL93 i disagree with you i think that "half squats" are very useful for building quad strength and putting on size. they aren't a waste of time. I do think they have to be done in complement with the full squat but it does have some fundamental benefits.

I like the powerball tosses!

it would matter because because olympic athletes are about explosivness and power. they do the lift correctly. they are pros because they are gifted (not to take away their hardwork and god knows some rely on that more then others) but its not an excuse for incorrect lifting imo.

@rogue8853 When I watch videos like this firstly you cant blame the athlete because they are only doing what they "know" and what their coach allows. But when it comes to lifts such as the clean I dont know why strength coachs allow for this type of form and hitching..this type of technique can only lead to injury in the athlete now or even later in life. Complete disregard to an emphasis on form by the coaches is a real detriment to the athletes for the rest of their careers

@rogue8853 these guys are pros for a reason there not olympic weightlifters so why would that matter
I see the experts are here to discuss the video...

I'm going to disagree with you. Most bodybuilders are the ones that you'll see doing "Quarter" or "Half" squats because they're looking for the isolation factor. Full depth squats are proven to make you both faster and more explosive, at the cost of having to do less weight. Unless your ass is below parallel, You're wasting your time. No excuses, No bullshit.
