I switch it up, Milo. Sumo and conventional and touch and go vs resetting, I don't deadlift every back session either, every other.

 

[DieYoungStrong]

Touch and go is blasphemy....

 

[ECKSRATED]

I think a controlled touch n go is ok sometimes like ed coan teaches. But not bouncing the weight off the floor like a ruhtard.

 

[Milo]

I think bouncing is stupid but like you said, more of a controlled tap seems to add a little more. There is constant tension rather than completely relaxing for a few seconds and going again.

Touch and go deadlift vs reset....which do y'all prefer? Never really thought about it much but I'm in a hypertrophy phase of training and I usually reset each time but it got me thinking that touch and go seems like it would have more time under tension and possibly be able to squeeze out another rep or two.

Just because you are focusing on muscle growth doesn't mean you change how you execute your competition lifts. Don't develop bad habits. No touch and go for you!

Did y'all see Crystal Tate half squat 700?

Did y'all see Crystal Tate half squat 700?

I saw it with a bad view so can't tell on the depth.

But the slow sit back descent into the squat and everyone yelling "back, back, back, back" makes me think she snuck a pair of single ply briefs under her singlet LOL.

Either way, she's more of a man than I.

Yeah that seemed really odd.. Especially with the speed she came up with.
I suppose I should clarify that it is still an extremely impressive feat for a ~100kg woman to take 700 for a high squat. I pulled up every video I could find after seeing people complain about it on fb. There's one really good that shows it at hip height from the front, and it's high enough even SPF judges would have had to make a tough choice.

Granted, I'm not a judge, so my opinion means dick. BUT... I get so incredibly annoyed with all the high squats, both in meets and posted for bragging on social media. Do I have some high/iffy squats? Sure. But I ****ing make a note of it if I'm postin the video.

 

[ken Sass]

only the judges have the angle to call it good or not.( this was not a spf meet)

 

[ECKSRATED]

Def a half squat. Shit I can hit 700 at that depth. Wtf

New low for cross fit fags at my gym: maxed out the length of the bar sleeves with wide ass 45 pound bumpers. Used bands to hold the weight on and was taking pictures of it. Total weight? 405. Total rep? 2.

Next time they're there do the same thing and DL it for max reps. Make loud noises. Very loud. Slam it every rep.
Then when they're all staring, tell them they look even stupider squattin it.

This is where you drop the mic.

 

[Milo]

I could do that. Was also thinking about beating them with the Shoulder Rok

You could tell it was gonna be high on the way down. You watch her knees keep moving forward. Impossible to hit depth that way.

Strong errr..milk
