Honestly, that trap bar makes a crazy difference. Impressive lift still, but what can he hit on a regular dead?

How do you measure proper box squat height. I would assume it would change according to the height or leg length of the person.

We measure to parallel or just below. This is all of 5'3 so he was a hair below parallel.

why are you trying to bulk up a soccer player? even if he was a holding mid-fielder, that fucker has to run a quarter marathon per game. no wonder usa soccer players suck ass.

Who says I'm "bulking" him up? He's not training for bodybuilding.

You aren't well versed in strength training. European football clubs do similar training with athletes. You wouldn't know that though.

coach do you think the trap bar decreases the chance of injury? esp torn biceps. the twist arm seems to rip on a lot of guys.

Heavy lifts do not require or necessarily lead to "bulk"...it's as much about technique and explosive ability as anything else.

Trap bar corrects your posture so that your lower back doesn't get destroyed from poor lifting technique. It's also a lift from higher up start which makes it easier. Never felt any biceps risk on either lift though you do hear about it on the internet.

Why the preference for trap bar over straight bar?

I suffered a distal bicep tear...completely off the bone..in 2009. To this day I fear deadlifts. Maybe I'm just a candyass?
