For me it has never been a matter of hand size, but 100% a matter of ball surface quality and friction vs my hand surface quality and friction. That's all there is to it, hand size is not that important when palming.

Well you don't need to be a genius to pretty much get at the conclusion of a bigger ceiling in speed sports for black people.

And yes, I don't remember the last time I saw a black O-lifter, for example. And so on. But more on the speed side of things - 100m, 200m, 400m, whatever, blacks rule. Both men and women.

Like Kelly said - if a guy put a gun at your head and told you to choose a kid that you'd believe is the most athletic (fast or whatever, you have to define what "athletic" means first but whatever) out of 100 kids, chances are you're going to pick a black kid.

Still, you can't deny that black people are "superior" athletically, or that have superior athletic ceiling. We've had this discussion countless of times, and there will be in the future the same thing again and again, but the reality is that it's true.

Otherwise you wouldn't have a all-black 100m sprint finals lineup and so on and so forth. We can try to be politically correct, but still.

So you recommend say a 3x5, 3x5 and 3x8 (for example) format of squatting?

 What I have found works best over time is working up to a heavy single or triple for 3 sets on one day, preferably the first day.  Then working up to a single max set of 5 the second training day. 

The last training day would be 4 x 8-10, where load is increased once you complete 4 x 10 across.  If youre only training 2x a week then you simply to workout 1, workout 2, workout 3, in order on whatever day they may fall, taking an extra day of rest after workout 3.

Very interesting, haven't thought about it that way.

What if you want to do two squat workouts per week with the 3rd squat workout being replaced by BSS + deadlifts?

Like:

Workout 1: squat
rest
Workout 2: BSS + deadlift
rest
Workout 3: high volume squat
rest
rest

You actually do a set of 40 dips?

How is not being able to hold a 10s plank even possible? Never met anybody that can't do it.
