 :ninja:^^^^

You do 8 reps with 50 kg at overhead press? :ninja:

I can barely do 8 with 35 kg, and that's only the first set. I can't do another 8 with that weight.

At 16 years old an empty barbell was probably my 5RM... but hey, I was nerdy and weak to begin with.

They even had the nerve to buy 34 more stationary bikes, instead of buying another power rack after many members requested one.

Money rules! They need to make it look good so more "health enthusiasts" join => more money for them.

I'm curious to see Dryeth low bar squat :P

Why don't you go with bulgarian split squats with a long stance (a lot of glute contribution, no knee bending forward) + RDLs for a while? No squatting. See how that goes.

I would argue that you need to define "easier" - as in a wider stance allows better technique => easier or as in a wider stance gets you a bit lower and you need to travel less distance.

I don't see the need to strain with a narrow stance with full squats. Use jump specificity where needed (half squats).

I think in the light of your recent :personal-record: that :personal-record: on the field should come as no surprise :highfive:

Hm... what if you go wider? Maybe you'd squat full better. If I were to keep a shoulder width stance I'd have a very hard time full squatting (where full = below parallel for me).

What stance do you use with your full squats vs your half squats and how much more, if any, are your feet externally rotated?
