Well Andrew hinted that people (RJ) should not "snap" at you just because you squat a lot you're a special person than someone else or something. Like RJ could snap at another guy but not at you since you work and squat a lot and help people around. Like, who cares? We're pretty much the same around here, we all work our butts off, I know I am for 10 years, so - who cares?
It was a matter of RJ's opinion vs yours and nothing more.
uh what a dumb fucking post, you couldn't have missed the boat any more than you did.
here let me clarify myself: if RJ wants to act tough against any member of this forum then he should be prepared to get his ass blasted by people like jdub/jcsbck for example.
how the god damn fuck did you misinterpret what i said, to that degree of fucktardedness? i am completely shocked.
Well you put it like if RJ has an opinion against a guy like steven miller (who I respect by the way) then somehow that's unacceptable since steven has "rep" vs other people around here that don't. Like his big squat somehow gives him more "power" in his opinion than someone else's. I still think that's what you meant.
Saying this:

i understand RJ may not know who steven-miller is
and this:

jfyi, steven-miller knows his sh*t, helps alot of people, and works his ass off.... his transformation has been & continues to be very impressive.
makes me think that.

You look like you're having better hip extension in this picture/better hip flexibility (nice hyperextension).
What happens if you voluntarily pull your heels to the butt?

What about BSS vs Squat for one leg jumpers? You can say BSS is more specific, but uses less total weight. However, is the total weight important? Or is what important the amount of load per leg?
For example:
What would be more difficult (let's pretend the guy doing this has no issues with balancing):
5 reps with 80 kg on the BSS
OR
5 reps with 160 kg on the squat.
How do you define "difficult"? How do you define the training effect that happens after doing this ^^^? What is more important - the amount of tension that occurs in the leg in the BSS or the amount of overall "body" tension that occurs during the squat? What if you use say 130 kg on the squat? What then? Can you say that a BSS makes you aware and able to concentrate all your might (nervous energy if you will) on one limb better than a squat would do?
Obviously the thing is, in training, consistency. That's what's important. But we talk about stuff like this because we (at least I do) like the challenge of deciphering all these "enigmas" (for some, others have a strong belief in one method or another).
I think Pavel Tsatsouline said that what's most important is the amount of tension in a muscle more than anything, it doesn't matter through what methods - traditional, iso, eccentric, whatever.

I can tell you one thing (as far as my recent injury):
YOU DON'T WANT ANY TWIST WHEN SQUATTING
