I can def see that, even just having on the back, slight rotate can put tension on back but after squatting tension goes off back.

But I can def feel it in the legs, the reason for what you said is because when you go deep, you can understand how far too lean then slight adjust as you go down, but when it becomes higher squat, it's harder to know the correct lean and it can be too far back or too far forward. So when squatting sometimes we just lean forward just to hit the pin and then go up.

But I use pin for the safety so I can readjust when going up, just have to be careful going down.

I plan to switch to box squats and then BSS with trap bar deadlift.

Hey, something to be careful with as quarter squat weight gets higher is if they start to target the back more than the legs. That's what happens to me, the back quickly becomes the limiting factor with higher weights doing partial reps. Might be different for you

Might be good to experiment with some movements and see what gets your legs the best and most specific gains for sprinting. For me that's probably trap bar DL, heavy BSS with straps, hang power cleans, maybe like step ups.

If anyone disagrees or has additional feedback feel free to chip in

I guess that could be true, i just meant that with a partial squat you can add weight faster than with a full one and when the weight becomes high enough the back becomes the limiting factor. But as long as its working for you

Edit: yeah i dunno lol maybe not

Adding a box makes even more safer imo, you have a box to aim for rather than trying to guess the lean and the angle when descending. But I plan on doing that, what asafa is doing, but they seem to have the box quite high.

Track & Field / Re: Bromell vs Lyles 60m
« on: February 13, 2023, 04:04:24 am »
trayvon bromell just made up for his loss against lyles by dropping this bomb.

<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rMhLX8cuXyI" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rMhLX8cuXyI</a>

Then lyles false starts and christian coleman wins a different 60m race.

Track & Field / Re: Sprinting SPP ballistic trap bar
« on: January 26, 2023, 04:16:16 pm »
Well modern Keiser machines have > gravity eccentric loads, and so do those flywheel spinning disc machines, like Kbox, where the harder you do the cocentric, the more the eccentric pulls back at you

But in the above video, he seems to be putting effort into the concentric and the eccentric, rather than let the weight drop down he pushes it down and then pull it up and repeat to maintain bar height.

It seems to be a way of loading the eccentric and concentric movement, as he puts effort into the pull and then the push, try and create rapid contraction eccentric and concentric as rapidly as possible. Recruit motor units and develop quickness in that short movement. Aim is to maintain the pendulum like movement else if not enough force placed downwards, the height will start to reduce until not possible to lift up anymore as is very heavy.
