FWIW: the stronger i got, the more and more narrow my stance became without me even realizing it. Squatting High bar.
Actually I believe it was either Raptor or LBSS who commented on my narrow stance a while ago on a video I posted and then it hit me that I was squatting pretty narrowly.
So what I'm trying to say is don't make squat stance width a big deal. Go with what's comfortable. Apparently the body will adjust it on its own.

didn't read thread so carefully but Raptor, are you saying your squat:bw ratio has gone up, yet your vertical has not?

i checked your log. you did not get injured. you are at 190s BW. went from 405x5 to 315x1.   

hahah i did get injured though. had patellar tendonitis for ~8 months. in addition I went from 210lbs to 190lbs bw.
also i've switched from parallel squatting to ATG squatting, so I didn't drop as much as it seems.
the marathon walking allows me to eat more protein for the day and recover better from my workouts.
I actually started the marathon walking when I had tendonitis because I thought "crap, now that I can't play ball, how will I burn my calories?" and now I just walk everywhere instead of taking the train.

but thanks anyway, you've been providing me with motivation with ur beast squat:bw ratio 

not bad.. 

careful with the chins. i did them for back thickness and i ended up with more biceps than lats. stopped at BW+90 x5, BWx20 routine. i prefer rows - thicken back without making your biceps too big.

I don't know how both of you suck with high rep BWs. while i was vacationing a few months ago, i did BWx20s 4-6sets every day. killed my abs more than anything.

i can probably do 20 reps with bodyweight non stop, but after that, im finished

considering i can do +75lbsx5 and BWx20 i'm surprised i still havent done 3x10 with 90sec rests.



and I do pendlay rows just as much as i do chin ups. in addition i do them with an overhand grip so it takes the biceps out of the movement just a bit.

I used to love tnation back in 2006-2008 or so. I really learned a lot of stuff from there. But after a while they just got crazy with pushing their BS products and i stopped reading because of it, but also because i wasnt learning as much anymore.

I wonder how rampant the advertising has gotten now... Im afraid to look

god damn

lucky you. these things costed me $119. how bout yours?

dam you have some awesome squat form. how much would you say the shoes help with that?

Not only that but you probably didn't do your warm up sets properly to hit 315x2.
