I believe he has great mechanics for squatting. Looks like Platz, elevator style squatting.

i was gonna say it's A LITTLE BIT like Platz but doesn't go as deep as Platz and Platz's legs were WAAAAAAAAAYYY bigger than Derek's.

his whole body is small, he's 5'2" 165 pounds, very impressive on the squats though.

Agreed. Derik looks over at him momentarily like "What the fuck? What do you think you're doing?!?!?!"

Post by: YoungBlood on March 15, 2009, 08:24:47 AM: Derik used to boast about 700lb squats. I remember when I first started to use the 'Net around 8-9 years ago, he had a video posted on a site- not sure if it was his site or not. It was something like a 650lb squat for reps.
He's got really strong legs, but when it came to competing with the big boys, the strength didn't match the size he needed to be a standout.
And plus the guy is so short, he's only moving the weight a few inches compared to someone like Ronnie or Toney Freeman.
Good lifting all around though. :)

Post by: MarvinEderFan on March 15, 2009, 09:04:29 AM: Not like Platz. Platz's were quite deeper and his knees came out way past his toes ( which is a good thing when doing an olympic squat, assuming your knees can handle it - and his obviously could).

While extremely impressive, his partner doing his body weight (202 I think) for 98 reps was a feat that blows this one away! He was going for 100, but no matter what he just couldn't get those last two, even after falling down and resting for a good while.
