I don't think that's ever been done. Too much info needed for an "unimportant" subject at the planetary level.

I don't think that's the case... I don't think this exists. Your best bet is to increase your strength since it's the most modifiable quality in terms of athleticism (your structure stays fixed, your explosiveness in terms of quickness is pretty much genetic with a very low training gain threshold). You can only really affect strength and movement efficiency to improve your athleticism. Well, that and bodyfat %.

It's hard to make a direct correlation because of biodiversity and other factors involved, like the ones above. But I think it's safe to say that unless you squat 2x+, your strength will be a limiting factor.

If that kind of answers the question.

If you look at 0:13, your wrists are straight over the bar. I can't have that. If my wrists are to be over the bar, then they have to be bent at perpendicular to the bar (bent to the maximum amount if you will). Otherwise, if I were to keep them straight like you do at 0:13, they'd be much lower than the bar. I have no idea what that means in terms of flexibility... maybe... what... shoulder inflexibility? I kind of feel the strain in the scapulae as well if I am to force things up.

I tried things with a wider grip and it was actually worse because my wrists came at an angle vs. the bar instead of straight "up". There's also the BAD (very, very bad) issue of the bar slipping on my t-shirt on my back and loading the arms. It doesn't sink into anything, it just slips down my back so I have to struggle to keep it there. I tried raising my elbows, contracting my back, doing all kinds of things to prevent that but the truth is that I really have to work fast and finish my set before the bar slips so much that it destroys my arms completely.

PS. You have the meat to let the bar sink into something

So... what... your last name isn't Marshall isn't it?

just saying, you can eat cleaner & gain muscle without putting on very much fat at all, you just need to eat more of the right kinds of foods (eggs/meat/chicken/milk/protein supp/green veggies) & less of the bad kinds of foods (junk/sugars/huge servings of pasta/bread etc).

That's exactly the plan. And to keep the insulin levels low. If I do it right, I could possibly lose fat and gain muscle at the same time as I have a lot of fat to lose. The thing is - I find eating overrated and pure marketing. I don't believe one bit in nutrition. I feel like the body will take what it needs from whatever food and you're going to look the same no matter what.

THE REAL PROBLEM is that my left elbow is in severe pain because of the low bar squats... I couldn't finish my workout today because of it. There is continuous pain because I can't get the palm over the bar in the low bar position without extreme strain in the wrist (which is bent beyond belief) and elbow (which is stretched beyond belief).

lollll honey badgers.... don't let the honey in the name fool you

I had to "google images" that, and then edit my post and replace "he" with "it".

It's interesting because (again I'm mentioning this) back in the day I used to do sets of 50 bodyweight squats. Coincidentally or not, I could "load" much better back then (I could feel the muscles compress and release force more then than just a rigid body).
