A half squat is when you do a squat going only half way down.

Exactly. You don't need alot of little isolation exercies. Try the 5x5. It may look like it's not much at first, but those are the toughest compounds you can do, you'll gain like crazy with them. Only going half way down on squats it bad on your knees. All the crap about squats being bad on your knees is 'cause there's newb no-nothings everywhere only going half way down or less and getting injured because all the weight is being put on their knees. Go ATG with your squats. Full ROM and it relieves your knees.Originally Posted by bassing68"Tall men come down to my height when I hit 'em in the body."-Jack Dempsey

Yes, I know going all the way down is better. But when it comes to squatting, I have bad balance. Any suggestions?Originally Posted by DempseyFan

couple questions...
what is an "atg" squat ie. what does ATG stand for...
very good links but on the bill starr 5x5 it suggests benching 3 times a week... that seems like a rather much no?
is there any links to a 5x5 split program?
and the 5x5 only applies to the large compound lifts correct... so for like skull crushers, curls, raises etc. just stick to 4x8 or something?
also
http://bodybuilding.com/fun/hitworkout.htm
on the plan it says 1x8 - 10 reps?
is that suggesting 1 set of 8 to 10 reps?Last edited by burke; 03-20-2006 at 03:07 PM.
