Kinda kills Basil's theories that huge muscles = strength

Their quads are actually pretty weak since they don't hit them much doing that. It's all gut and posterior chain. Their guts are big so they squat big. Strength = size.

Lol, now that i've cut down i notice how much a gut helps while doing squats. It gives a shitload of extra leverage.

What is the distinction between Strength Speed Training and Speed Strength Training?

Some of those guys got good quads they're just so fat you can't tell. The problem is like van said, those aren't real squats, with the form they are using and the box they are sitting down.. That's a glute workout

I'm a powerlifter and very well acquainted with Westside and its practices (even employ some of them), but I feel it's gone too far in its pursuit of records. Too much support gear, too much movement manipulation, too many "tricks", too much drug reliance, etc. I mean, these cats are strong, no doubt, but they're also not anywhere near the levels they think they are, if oldschool standards are observed.

Take away the box and it's a "real" squat. A lot powerlifters will only box squat and then perform the "real" squat during a meet. Want to increase power....box squat!

Box squatting is excellent, yes.

Forget that those things even exist. There is only strength.

this is a squat

Used to make the five hour drive up there every weekend. Hardcore to say the least. One thing I've learned from all the heavy lifting I did...better do it "on" because when you get older, your joints will never forgive you.

STAY POSITIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The 70's(extended through maybe 1985) was the best decade(and maybe half) for all of the power sports:

i think if those westside guys stood with wider stances, and added more sofa cushions to sit on they would get better results.

they appear to be natural. small, and fat

This is the sort of squatting that impresses me the most.

That 800 pound squat posted above had me wincing, the way he dropped into the bottom position.

That's the Chinese weightlifting squad, they're all beasts. The Koreans are really good Olympic lifters also.

Check out the back development on one of the Chinese's top men:
