Isokinetic Squat - 220kg down, ~150kg up

This setup was very cool, with the weight releasers - this was ~220kg on the way down, then about 150kg on the way up, plus the isokinetic tension.

I would discuss more about how this actually works, but the technology and machines are under patent - so if I told you I'd have to kill you.

Nice depth :)

what is this stupid shit? Just squat the 220 like a real champion, and if you can't do 220 properly then don't fool yourself by loading the bar with this bullshit contraption.

There's some vid of it on youtube? I use weight releasers and it we'll be very useful.

i did not expect those weights to drop! thats a crazy idea. very cool

Not isokinetic. Variable loading with more load in the eccentric phase than in the concentric phase of hip and knee flexion/extension. The US Ski Team has a mechanical device that lifts the supplementary load back to the original height where it can be used for another rep through the eccentric phase.

I highly doubt this is Isokinetic

Cool idea, not sure if I like it though because of the difficulty in maintaining stability as you drop the weights of in the bottom. Since the idea is to allow for a heavier weigth in the negative phase, I'd probably do this with both belt and knee straps, safetywise... Nice vid!

hahaha cool!

awesome, methinks to myself how I can make my way of dropping the weights on the way down lol.
