Well, you're going to need a lot of money for so many roids.

Dave Tate on box squatting:

http://articles.elitefts.com/articles/training-articles/efs-classic-squatting-from-head-to-toe/

The love of the box squat comes from the fact that it allows WPO powerlifting guys to mimic a competition squat while lifting in training without the suit.

It does have some uses with athletes though. It's very useful for teaching lankier guys who can't squat easily to load the posterior chain.

He says a lot of bullshit in that article though. Like, the quads are not that important for squats because if they were, we'd all be using leg press weights in the squats. I mean, you don't need me to start debunking that, right?

185 kg x 5 reps = 208 kg 1RM according to http://www.exrx.net/Calculators/OneRepMax.html

While I'm in agreement with Glenn Pendlay, and your post adarqui, I have a question for you: If you add 50kg to your squat, wouldn't you end up moving your old 1-RM faster?

This is a question that would definitely be more oriented towards beginners or advanced novices.

I think it depends...

Say you were finishing your 1RM in 6 seconds. If you gain 50 kg and finish your former 1RM in 5 seconds, is that enough to see a positive influence on your VJ that takes only 0.2 seconds to apply force into?

Mully, enlighten me, what I got wrong there?

I'm sorry Raptor. I was just joking with you. You are one of the figure icons on this site and have been here longer than me. Will you humbly accept my apology buddy?

I will deal with your beligerant attitude later. Consider yourself dismissed soldier!
