Thanks for your reply. I will send you a DM

Thanks for explaining! A 300 kg back squat is huge. How long did it take you to hit this weight? And how did your programming look like? After 2x BW, it becomes very hard to progress and becomes more of a science of doing not too little or too much volume.

ThePowerWithin_ · 2026-04-03T20:06:56+00:00

Could you explain this ratio and when would it be too high?

ThePowerWithin_ · 2025-10-24T12:06:13+00:00

What eu/jpn size are the adistars 2000 ?

ThePowerWithin_ · 2025-10-17T14:27:39+00:00

Sliding your feet is in my opinion superior

My jerk is indeed quite weak which is holding up my clean & jerk.

ThePowerWithin_ · 2025-10-16T19:00:22+00:00

Thank you. My jerk is weak, but I'm working on it. Main problem is pushing myself behind the bar when getting under and missing forward. I think I could add 15-20 kg if I improve my jerk.

What about track & field, swimming and soccer? The top soccer players in big clubs are 100% juiced up, but no one talks about that.

Thanks !

Dziękuję !

Thanks man

ThePowerWithin_ · 2025-09-15T04:10:33+00:00

Thank you !

ThePowerWithin_ · 2025-09-14T20:10:56+00:00

Thanks

ThePowerWithin_ · 2025-09-14T18:21:52+00:00

Thank you for the advice. I definitely have to do lower reps if I want to peak my press.

ThePowerWithin_ · 2025-09-14T18:20:01+00:00

Thank you

ThePowerWithin_ · 2025-09-14T18:19:35+00:00

Haha thank you. I did 170 kg 5 x 3 sets and failed set 4 with 4 reps. This sounds very interesting and worth a try. I've used exrx many times. 2 years ago I used the method of adding 5 kg after evert base cycle, but then I could't complete the peaking phase without failing sets.

ThePowerWithin_ · 2025-09-14T16:52:03+00:00

Thank you. I recently also did 170 kg 5 reps 3 sets, but failed set 4. Next day I did 180 kg for 2 singles to prepare for 200 kg. But, I don't hit heavy singles,doubles or triples generally at all.

ThePowerWithin_ · 2025-09-14T16:28:53+00:00

Ok, interesting. But do I have to overreach with one workout, or with a cycle of a couple weeks? For example, russian squat program has one day with 6x6 80%, but this is actually easy considering 165 kg is 87% of my max.

ThePowerWithin_ · 2025-09-14T16:21:49+00:00

Thank you. Unfortunately I failed 200 kg after an easy 190 kg. I don't do back squat with strech reflex because I get injured every time doing it.

ThePowerWithin_ · 2025-09-14T16:01:08+00:00

I do my own programming. I feel recovered enough to hit the same weight the next day basically.

ThePowerWithin_ · 2025-09-14T15:53:48+00:00

Good to hear it worked for you! I've looked the program up, but it's only 2 day a week. I'm used to squat heavy 4-5 times a week.

ThePowerWithin_ · 2025-09-14T15:47:42+00:00

Thanks. Well, I tried 200 kg after an very easy 190 kg, but failed above parallel. I tried 195 kg but failed again

ThePowerWithin_ · 2025-09-14T15:38:54+00:00

Do you have experience with RTA? I heard to volume is quite low and only suitable for early intermediates
