You should try to keep your head looking forward on the depth jumps (instead of looking at the ground), you'll do them better.

A regular deadlift is easier than a RDL because you also get quad power in a regular deadlift, whereas in the RDL you don't. Even though the RDL has a shorter ROM and also has a eccentric period of amortization (that should potentiate you a bit). At least that's how I feel.

Deadlift.

Although deadlift strength might be masked by weak forarms/upperback for some people, I think it's safe to assume they'd be deadlifting more than they are squatting if they were to use straps for the deadlifts (thus being able to express their actual strength in the deadlift)

PED's in drug free sports is cheating, unethical, and weak. Athletes and/or coaches who condone/display this behavior can get lost.

I agree with Adarq's viewpoint. I don't give a fuk how "everybody else is doing it". The only way sports will ever be clean is when drug tests become more frequent, and penalties become harsher. If you're caught doping even just once you should be banned for life. That may sound harsh but it's the only way sports are ever going to become clean and if you're caught cheating than deal with the consequences.

I can only agree with that IF the test is 100% reliable. You can't ban a guy for life just because your test showed he took roids when in fact he took pills because he had a headache and it came up in your test as roids. You get the idea.

It's like the death penalty - what if the guy is innocent? Better let 20 guilty guys live than kill 1 innocent guy.

Yes but the degree of knee bend doesn't all lie on the length of the achilles. There is a myriad of factors that get into play.
