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...

Right.

The last thing this forum needed: another raptor.

oh god

Hey, it's not that often people call me "God". Thanks man!

Does it hurt if you deadlift?

Nah, it wasn't the time I posted that, I thought it looked pretty fast.

Haha... damn, you must be a really important guy, right?

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

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.

What do you think?

 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.
