Any reason why you don't deadlift? Imo you could benefit from additional P-chain work, esp a big compound movement.
Squatting heavy is good but I believe from your video of 315 (the amount your knees go over your toes) and your front squat:back squat ratio you are quad dominant, maybe even very quad dominant. This sets you up for injury if you play sports and I don't believe you can get to a 40" SVJ without a good quad:p-chain balance.
deadlifting very heavy weights is almost always counter productive to explosiveness. quads+glutes are the prime movers of quick sporting movements.
i am not against p-chain work. i do volumes of GHR raises.
go to a track meet. the fastest and most explosive athleltes are all quadzillas.
Okay I found where KF said that.
I thought DL is huge a huge glute workout.
ya I remember that quote from KF. great quote. agree. also agree about quadzillas, the "p-chain" obsession is ridiculously overblown. Yeah those guys have amazing glutes & hamstrings, but quads as well.
the problem with heavy deadlifting is, when does it become more of a back exercise? for athletic performance, once the DL becomes a back exercise, it's not really as productive. Unfortunately that hurts lots of people's egos and they just go nuts and keep increasing the weight.
if you take DL and SQ, you might be able to eventually lift more weight with DL, but, not nearly as much weight as SQ if you say: i'll stop adding weight to DL once it becomes a back exercise. Then, SQ completely destroys it. The only way potentially that you could do that with DL, is using SUMO DL, but then the ROM is much less and it's just pointless, focus on SQ.
