Nice strategy on reaching your goal of 420 negged posts

high bar IMO. the point of low bar is to lift as much weight as possible, not so much to have as much athletic carryover. olympic lifters use them instead of low bar as they feel it is a better of increasing strength as they are in fact much harder. its a tool to increase VJ/speed, not a predictor, so why would you cheat yourself just to feed your ego? idk thats just my ten cents

so why would you cheat yourself just to feed your ego?
To cheat your ego. It's GREAT!
No but for a guy like me with knee issues... it helps. Also if you also do front squats maybe it's a good idea to do low bar squats with PROPER form (leg driven).

your ten cents? giving yourself an awful lot of credit there, aren't you? ordinarily it's two. the answer to hyperdunk's question is "it depends." anything beyond that is completely meaningless without further context.

my bad, didn't think the slight change monetary value made such a big difference and made me look like a complete tool......
i agree it depends, but in a perfect situation (disregarding body structure, injuries, muscular imbalances, etc) high bar is more ideal than low bar in terms of athletic development. but obviously everyone is different: some people can get results with one, none with the other. some can do one, can't do the other. no athlete perfectly alike.
but thats just my 1/2 cent....

anybody mind if I throw in my quarter cent?

this debate is boring and has been had over and over again with no resolution whatsoever. no one's cents are worth anything.
