you got to slow down on that negative rep brother let that thing creep down to the floor. if you can it's too heavy to go to lighter weight and gives a s*** what anybody says eventually you'll get to where you want to be
Good shit dude speed training is really something else. On one hand you have moving something really heavy on the other something really fast. I swear I use to bench 2 plates as fast as max sometimes but when i started doing speed sets it made the whole movement faster and feel better. Keep it up man
Your statement doesn’t make any sense. You said one platform the band have attention all the way from the ground so you don’t know what you’re picking up it’s no longer 135. the other platform starts getting tighter when you got around your knees but am I mistaken you don’t know what that is either because now the vans are pulling down and you know longer have 135
Bands are already pulling down on the bar off the floor on the rogue, elitefts the bands aren’t touching the bar when it’s on the floor. Off the floor you know how much weight you’re working with with elitefts. This fits your strength curve better you can pick weights you know you can handle off the floor. With rogue you could have 135 on the bar but off the floor from the start it might actually be more like 185. This makes percentage base training and speed work Harding to estimate
Yes, when using chains as accommodating resistance when unracking the weight first you want some of the chains to be in contact with the ground. If they are hanging off the ground it will cause some instability making a squat that you’re trying to perform for speed or max weight harder to perform distracting from the objective of the exercise. If your goal is instability or chaos training then by all means let the chains be off the ground but you’re no loading using the chains as “accommodating resistance”. In the bottom of a squat or a bench you want to chains to totally unload so the weight that’s on you in the bottom is just the weight that’s on the bar. The reason being if you’re using this for accommodating resistance the chains are meant to accommodate your strength curve meaning as you come up you’re in more favorable joint angles and mechanical would be able to handle more weight. The weight on the bar should represent the weight you can squat the most or move at a speed velocity at your weakest position while the chains represent the strength difference in the stronger joint angels. Allowing you to train speed and acceleration (or max strength) in a full range of motion through all joint angles. If chains are still on the bar in the bottom position there’s no way of really know how much weight you have at the bottom.
