Fwiw I am like Vasily Alekseyev, I never squat more than 270kg.
And they didn't even have the internet thenFadi left the AIS around the time of Oni's birth.
I'll make it easy for you in a sec strong man...I don't know wht the hell is going on in this thread..
No, I'm saying the exact opposite in fact.But fadi, are you saying that speed and strength is not an element of power
As above.and if not are you saying that seed and strength need to be trained seperatly?
I hear you big man...A yes or no is enough,
Definitely not!I dont need to debate it with you
And thank you for the reply, and further elaboration and clarification. I guess that also relates to how the heavy singles done in training for squats are typically 10-15% below actual 1RM, or at least so I'm told.Thank you for your observation Ryan. I have failed to mention that a weightlifter is very successful in driving up out of the hole only up to a certain weight. Meaning, after the weight on the bar begins to exceed a certain level, the weightlifter's attention would automatically shift to focusing on form... as one can lose form much easier with a heavier weight than not.
While we're at it, I can think of two other reasons for not choosing heavy deadlifts over heavy pulls.
1. The deadlift does not simulate the weightlifter’s pull in all its facets.
2. The extra heavy weight (that is argued for) would make it virtually impossible to maintain good lifting form.
Now some may wish to argue the second point. But I can only speak from my experience and the experience of other weightlifters when I say that even with only a 10% or so increase over one’s 1RM in the pulling exercises, the lifter can lose form. That is why even after years of training, the coach who seems to be just walking around in the lifting area doing nothing, is all about observing correct form.
Furthermore (and I’ve mentioned this before), Ivan Abadjiev got rid of the pulls even, for fear of the lifter getting in the wrong groove/path one rep after another.
Fadi.
Your demeanour is very much appreciated by me Ryan, thank you. Now to give you some facts re what you have written above if you don’t mind Sir.And thank you for the reply, and further elaboration and clarification. I guess that also relates to how the heavy singles done in training for squats are typically 10-15% below actual 1RM, or at least so I'm told.
Olympic weightlifters never perform heavy single squats in their day to day training.
Do you compete Powerbuilder? If so, in what weight class?
They never perform heavy singles?
Are you sure about that fadi?
Not only did the Bulgarian's use their daily squat 1RM to base their entire training around the asian nations also regularly perform squat 1RMs, deadlifts too

I’m still waiting!Fadi: I will get to your posts in the morning as I don't have time right now
They never perform heavy singles?
