How Fast Should You Squat? Squatting Speed  

🤣🤣🤣 yes thank you!

Thanks for watching!

Increased TUT (Time under Tension) which produces more hypertrophy. Increased RFD (Rate of Force Development) increasing at which rate an athlete can produce force (can be a real game changer during the concentric portion of the squat). Also long tempo and pause squats significantly improve an athletes "feel" of what the body is actually doing. If you have balance problems when squatting at regular speed, tempo squats will expose that lack of balance and will teach you proper positioning like nobodies business.

@@jermaineayivoh8263 so you're pause squatting 200kg?

@@albupavel No I pause squat 170kg now. But I don’t need to be able to pause squat 200kg already to have a decent understanding of how it is helping me. I used to be too reliant on the stretch reflex to fire me out of the hole. I didn’t realise how much so, until I tried pause squatting for the first time. I was capable of doing a set of regular squats of 170kg for reps, yet I could barely pause squat 130kg for 3 reps when I first tried. It gave me a whole new perspective of much was left in the tank.

Damn

@@jermaineayivoh8263 citation needed lol

you mean the one Candito has done videos on?

I really wanna know how much weight they were lifting

@@jabari8950 I wanna know who let that one kid crank his neck completely backwards

@@Mrdest211 ong

6:22 that kid is brayan ibanez he won panams recently and squatted 170x2 i believe at 14; he competed at my gym a few years back… i think sn 70 c&j 90 or something like that? When he was 12-13

@@ericwang4757 wtf… do Yk when he started training?

exactly man, same thing has happened to me, controlling the eccentric portion makes you feel confident

I think this is what people are trying to get across when they say "TIGHT TIGHT TIGHT"!!!

There is a degree of individuality within forward and slightly down. Up is not good, but anything else within reason is fine. Even more important than that is that whatever you choose stays the same throughout the range of motion.

Lol depends what you think the whole is how deep you go

That would be part of the tendon spring and stretch reflex working but of course it has it's cons

Try to build up your Petersen step up and Hack Deadlift ;) your knees will thank you later

You'll be pleasantly surprised....

@@sikastrength Yessss i love it! Shoulda put the “brutal back squat” vid it’s one of the best weightlifting video of all time

It all depends but in homogenous situations the shorter limbed lifter has less distance to travel

@@sikastrength Not only that but a short legged lifter has a smaller moment arm in all the joints that matter, what means less "force" is required to move a same given weight.

@@kblkbl lmao this means nothing in competition. I cant say I lifted more weight because I moved the weight more

@@joys8634 Who's saying otherwise? Being more efficient in lifting weights is the whole point of the sport.

A fucking brilliant man all said and done

Darth Vader/shaggy meme crossover: "Are you challenging me?!"

He's taking the piss

accessory work for the midline is included in the Road To Anywhere squat program 🤙

Maybe they're just dressing up an excuse to algorithm boost via reposting senpais squat

I hear there's a guy with some stuff out there who does it...

Fuck all the ungrateful capitalist pigs!

bro… me too

Thanks for doing it!
