Are there definite signs that the results will be there within a reasonable timeframe? Well....it's gone from being very very poor to being sort of about as good in quite a short frame of time. But then I go heavy on an olympic squat every now and again and realise that's probably improved as well. Errr... at best, I'll lift more weight. At the worst, it's fine as an assistance exercise as it's strengthening some obviously lagging things at quite a quick rate. It's worth including in my training, i'm just not sure how I should compete just yet! | ||

If I were you I'd leave it at that for the time being and not even think about it as a potential competition style. That just opens the door to second-guessing yourself on the platform. | ||

No. You want strength off the floor in a better position than this. You don't want to encourage this position. I could write many more paragraphs but I won't. Squats - from pins in a power rack. Somewhere between the top and the bottom of a squat. 70 120 170 220 240 260 275kg x 1 Well that was hard Bench bar 60 100 140 160 167.5kg x 1 easy.. | ||

Member 958, 11411 posts SQ 410, BP 215, DL 4251050.0 kgs @ 100kgs UnEq | Friday Olympic Squats bar x 3 x 3 70 x 1 x 3 120 160 190 215 240kg x 2 205kg x 8 Back a little tender so wasn't up to a big single, did some reps instead. I'm pretty sure I've never done more than 1 rep beltless with 240kg + before so that's some form of progress. There was at least a 3rd there... SLDL 120 200 250 270kg x 5 | ||
