You guys are the ones who set the standard and demanded I live up to it. So now I am doing the same the standard is ATG Squats with a video or pic of bottom position for the form police. Funny all of a sudden no one else trains squats anymore after telling me it was the GETBIG standard. Fuck a box squat.

Does anyone notice anything odd about this squat rack? At what angle could a photo be taken where the distant support look so much lower than the near one?

Be careful Wes, Covid gives you brain fog and you’re not that smart to begin with.

😂
Come on now Walt....I thought you knew me well enough to recognize my sarcasm by now.   :D

Box squats done like that are basically just an assistance movement for equipped powerlifting. Without a suit you can't "sit BACK with shins upright" and they actually try to get the quads out of the movement. Many of the equipped box squatter record holders had almost no quad mass. But I think the box squats can be a "fun" movement and can get you stronger overall.

Yes, assistance for sure.  And you are right about the "fun" part, as it's good to mix things up.

Won't do shit for hypertrophy, but that's not why I use them.

Now that you`ve brought it to my attention,that looks very odd and very much altered.

Notice how the near squat rack support has protective caps on it while the far one appears to have none. Also, the lighting is off. Usually, something nearer to the camera appears brighter than what is farther way. In this case, it is just the opposite.

Hi Guys !   🙋‍♀️

Today I did power cleans (with my wrist straps), chest, and sprints with Walter, his gf, and another Getbigger whose board name I forgot (sorry Mike ?).

I’m getting better on the cleans, I will post a photo to ask for input on proper form. I can pull so hard now that I almost go airborne.

We did 40 yard sprints (not sure why they picked that distance); my quickest time was 5.2 seconds but I didn’t have the best shoes on for sprinting though.

More importantly we went for blueberry pancakes afterwards.

Get well Wes !
Get well Henda !
Get well Mr. Scott !
Hi Chaos !   🙋‍♀️

Thanks. I enjoy finding discrepancies and solving mysteries. Maybe, I am a wannabee Sherlock Holmes.  ;)

I could accept this if you had a job with an income and therefore enough money to hire anyone much less those guys. Even if there is a logical explanation, you must admit it looks off. BTW, any word on when you start your new job in finance?

You dont squat anymore nor does Jeff. If my bilateral titanium knee bolts are not a valid excuse what can yours possibly be? I have herniated disc and crooked spine as well so dont start with that shit next

It's an optical delusion.

I took 5 years off,when will you grasp this you dumb fuck.....just trained legs twice in a gym in a week and a half....I may squat again somewhere down the road but not yet when I can handle far more weight doing leg presses and keep my back injury free.

Besides I`ve done every rep scenario and intensity technique there is for legs and while I got stronger than shit in squats.......my quads grew very little from all the energy expended.
