Those are really good old school Soviet squat stands, a gym I used to train at that was also a gym during the Soviet times has one of those and its a pleasure to work with, a lot better than many more modern squat stands. I´m not sure if they make those anymore though, you might be able to find some second hand stuff in Eastern Europe/former Soviet countries.

My body is telling me I'm going to need some knee support to keep doing these lifts, guys. Ace bandage wraps or straight to something heavier duty? Are you all eleiko whores on the wraps too?training log: http://forum.bodybuilding.com/showthread.php?t=153696161&page=51

Has anyone here experimented with rack walkouts (loading up a bar with weights above your max and simply feeling the weight on your back/front) in preparation for heavier squats? Have you found them useful?

Pretty sure half the posters in here are child prodigies. I think the entire poverty crew will be earning degrees from some of California's most esteemed institutions, pretty sure ftwrestler is retired comfortably at 24 (married and seemingly lifts all day long at various gyms, do you even work?), and DaTruth is like 17 with an M.D.

In other news, I'm making some resolutions for 2013:
- Buy my first home
- Clean up my diet (lots of meat + veggies + fruits + sweet potatoes + a little dairy + nothing else), coinciding with not spending $30 per day on food
- Quit drinking for January and February to see what effect, if any this has on my gains and my wallet
- Clean and Jerk 130 kg
- Snatch 100 kg
- Back Squat 200 kg
- Front Squat 170 kg
- Deadlift 250 kg
- Press my bodyweight

Oops -- played a season of minor league ball with a guy who pitched at Fullerton, pretty sure he had trouble spelling his own name. The rest of your crew go to pretty good schools though, no? Didn't my man Obama go to Oxy? And I'm pretty sure CalTech students have the highest average IQ of any university in the world.

Rehband mam.
5mm. The gray ones
WHAT! Also that's a big fs bs difference. God damn tho.
My bs and fs goals are the same, but I want a 118/140 total-ish
I snatch 107 with 109 misses behind and I squat ~400lbs as my 1rm

TFW you finally search up what TFW means because datruth keeps using TFW
i usually do them from the front in order to get used to holding the weight before a jerk but its part of me doing jerk drives which is also to help for the jerk. i used to do them for back squats when i was powerlifting to get used to the weight.
i prep my front squat maxes by doing my current max or more as a back squat for reps and speed. this only works because my current back squat form is very quad based like my front squat. i try not to have my ass shoot out is what i mean.........(july 23, 2010)
Bench 200
Squat 335
Deadlift 375
Snatch/CnJ 84kg/108.5kg (sept 23, 2011)
ATG 134kg
FS 120kg
get jacked, squat rack
do rows; working on your back

i can squat jerk 130, but some times i have trouble front squatting it crew checking in
today work out so far
pinned half squats: worked to 210kg for 5 triples
snatches : 5x3 working up my last triple of 89kg
CnJ 4x3 1x2: working to 100kg on my last triple, 105kg on my last double
