Yup, and it probably has to do with improved mobility and flexibility due to front squatting as well, and being able to keep a vertical torso while lowering.

Yeah you can even go crazy and do low bar half squats for more specificity. Not sure if that makes sense and overcomplicates things.

Well why don't you lower the weight and go deeper and more under control? That will benefit you much more than what you're doing now. A 5 rep ATG squat is similar to a 10 rep parallel squat in terms of TUT so... it's more than just depth.

Yeah it might be a good idea, to have the backoff sets as low bar for more posterior chain work/hypertrophy.
I should do it the other way around - having the backoff sets being high bar.

« on: March 12, 2013, 01:53:14 pm »Lmao!
Just for kicks I tried squatting on the smith (no weight) and it felt completely unnatural. I cant imagine how a jump squat would feel!
It's one of the weirdest things in the world - the smith machine squat. It feels OK at the top but once you start going down... oh boy...
But apparently you can load the quads more with it by putting your legs forward and making a "sliding wall sit" out of it.

Maybe a 3x squat in a smith machine is equivalent to a 1x free squat

« on: March 12, 2013, 12:24:30 pm »So the maximum average unloaded countermovement jump ( SVJ ) is that of the sprinters. And it stands at..........
50cm ( 19,68'' )
This^^^
Something is really fishy there... I mean what, they all squat over 2x (even the control group with no training background) and jump just 50 cm? No way that is happening unless they all are 3 feet tall or something.
