Look at the focus on the spotters face. That's hot. |

no... i wasn't being a dick. for all the good info i find here i didn't expect to get a response like that either.
now i'm probably wrong but it looks like the knees are not too far forward (it actually *almost* looks like vertical shins), torso leaning pretty far forward, bar below/behind acromion...
Maybe instead of giving a condescending answer someone else could point out why it is so obviously not a low bar squat. |

Cooper-
I'm sorry, I wasn't trying to be condescending at all. I am sorry if I offended you. I trully apologize. When I asked if it was a joke, I said so because there has been a lot of low bar - high bar back squat talking recently, so I actually thought you were making a low bar squat joke. I took it out of context and I am sorry.
To really answer your question, that is katie, and that is how she squats, she doesn't get into the same position as one does when doing a high bar back squat, so that is why it looks a little low. And, she isn't wearing shoes ;)
Again, sorry to make you angry. Please forgive. No harm intended. |

Personally I'd call that the "skinny-pasty-strength-coach" back squat. |

I agree with Robb...how have your lifts been going up while playing all that World of Warcraft anyway? ;)
At least living in the Mid-Atlantic I have an excuse for not having a tan this time of year! :p |

SnBal 70kg...sucked, but that's good because it's an area that I really need to work on. Thanks. I've been avoiding these.
FS 105
SnPull 90
Skipped the metcon to give myself added rest. This first week has been high volume and I'm pretty sore today. I can't wait for Saturday's workout.

Got a newbie question-what in the world is a broad jump? I looked in the excercises page but did not see an explanation?
Thanks,

Snatch Balance: Up to 115#, but it was ugly. Backed down and practiced!
FS: 185# x2x4
Snatch Pull: 190# x3x3
Metcon: 3 rds for time: 10 Broad Jumps, 10 60# DB swings, 10 Pushups. 4:13
My first 5 jumps were great..and long. Then I turned into a 4 year old and it was sad. Slowed down and things got better. Swings and Pushups were easy, but those jumps were humbling! Very sore in the glute/hamstring area. |
