YEah I don't compete in powerlifting so I coming from a spectators point of view. I would way rather watch the guys I listed above at Raw Unity than IPF worlds. Just my opinion.I'd also rather hold an all time world record than an IPF medal but each to their own

lol 'eye doctor'
I'd say it was parallel, or as parallel as you can tell from that angle.
He did say he squats to parallel in training and below in comp

Yeah it did look a little high.
As a slight aside I often wonder why lifters get so defensive, and what could be described as butt hurt, when they resceive critisism online? Not talking about people being rude, just criticism. If you put vids out there what do people expect?

I think if he knew it was buried he would not need to be defensive so his replies speak volumes, and Im a huge Lilliebridge fan, they are normally pretty good with depth for Americans tbh but that was high, either that or he needs to sort his camera angle out imo which doesn't do it any favours.

That's the bottom. I'm not sure you could say his hips are below his knees there, but it's difficult to tell from the angle.

because you're a PED user. Those guys you listed are known (been caught)or are open about such use. Those in the ipf are more appealing to us natural athletes because of the more stringent anti-doping policies, therefore we can relate to and dream of reaching their respective numbers, as we feel they are far more likely to be drug free

Theres probably just as many lifters using PED's in the IPF as there is in any other fed
I recall Dean Bowring (i think) saying that at worlds and euros a lot of the lifters from other nations were very open about their drug use

"In the British squad, I'd say 99 per cent of lifters are clean." He added: "But when that squad goes away to lift internationally, most of the other countries take drugs and they speak openly about it." - Dean Bowring.
Or is he just saying that because 'anyone stronger than [him] must be taking steroids'?
