I think it looks much better than before, especially better speed.

I have the tendency to jumpmorning but I would love to be able to keep a more vertical torso like you're naturally doing. When I jumpmorning I go forward more than up because my torso is oriented down and also, as I raise, my knees have the tendency to collapse foward.

That doesn't happen to you though so...

Pretty good man, in your first squat workout you already squatted more than my PR so... nicely done sir.

Keep up the good work.

How is bear meat? I was told by someone you can't really compare real hunt meat with what you normally get from the store...

The truth is that when I do 1/4 squats I use a much narrower stance than when I squat "full"... this might have something to do with it.

Did you use the same stance when you did 170 as in your normal 110 squat?

Also, for the 2nd workout you might also go with this:

Quote
Let's say you're doing squats and you want to hit one money set for somewhere between 5-10 reps. Your last workout you did 250 for 6 reps and you want to improve upon that number. Your entire squat workout might look like this:

45 lbs x 10
135 x 5
185 x 5
225 x 5
250 x 8 reps (or as many reps as possible)

The idea is you do enough warm-up or build up sets to get fully prepared for that one maximal run at a PR. If you felt you had more in the tank you might give another run at that 250. Also, notice how there are several warmup sets but the reps are kept lower to avoid excessive fatigue from building up.

Would that be the only thing you did that workout? Typically not. You might do one or 2 more money sets of a different exercise and you could even add some submaximal assistance volume work, but the rest of the workout wouldn't really count towards your progress one way or the other. It's the money set(s) that count.

 Yeah that sucks. Those spotters are supposed to be FOLLOWING the bar, and are standing there with their thumbs up their asses.

That's the first thing I thought. In fact I'd take that even further and say that if you sign in as a spotter, especially on an official competition, you should be charged with negligence murder (I don't know how exactly you name it in English) if something like this happes ^^^

If a guy dies and you're a spotter, it's your responsibility.

Then if I'm more into hypertrophy that what this protocol is originally made up for, I could do a 1x5 and 2x8 in the 2nd workout since I'm going for 4x10 for hypertrophy in the 3rd one anyway I guess.

this pic made me think of hyperdunk-


lol cant be real??

Yeh that pic is photoshopped. The original sign says something like 'are you gay or lesbian and don't want to be'.

I thought it said "are you a gay or lesbian ASIAN and don't want to be?"
