well you are suppose to sit back a little but you are sitting far back,then rocking forward before coming up, the idea is to come up exactly where stop when you sit back, if your mid section are not strong enough, then you're going to fold over before coming up.....as for the speed thing, box squats can be used for speed training or max effort, either way one should always strive to be as fast and explosive at all times.


yes your right about the mid section never trained it in my life guess nows the time to change that,as you say im rocking due to a week mid sedtion thanks icepickCool

No question about that. I too found it easier to pile up some stuff rather than making the rather spiffy box that Mr Boar created. I suppose I was more concerned about ending up with a nail in my arse if my previous carpentry skills are anything to go by.

I measured myself at just a gnat's nadger bellow parallel with a 12" box. I'm 5'9" in old money, how tall are you?

Don't know if you did but it looked like you clanged your knees when you were putting the bar down after your mil presses. Made me flinch anyways.

I've got to get myself an Olympic set. And you've definitely got to get a cage or something, cos it can't be funny to have 120+ slowly making its way down to your neck heh Nice benching though. My aim for the end of this year is to get a 120 for a single!

some nice benching there, and not to bad on the overhead lifting your soon be hitting 100+.

try doing your military presses like this, you wont get the backbend then.

http://www.marunde-muscle.com/fitness/askem_strict_press.html

even though its on the site that dare not say its name it not marunde its his teacher I thought his articles are very good.

heres some more i like:
http://www.marunde-muscle.com/fitness/askem_olympic_press.html
http://www.marunde-muscle.com/fitness/askem_power_clean.html

I try and spit it, i will do one exersise where i do push pressing (log, axle or oly bar), then a strict pressing exersises like military press or behind the neck press.

my wife wondered if that pressing video was a preview for hostel II! haha the screaming kids how do you keep your concentration!!! i must say that must be brillant training for when you get to a compition with all the noise.
