I tried both and couldn’t get either, lol
I really thought I could do it too. You wouldn't think it's as hard as it is.

Figured I’d drop in this thread since I’m making the switch... competing in 10 weeks in a bench only competition in the 220 pound class.. opening with 365, progressing to 385 and finishing with 405. Lots of pages here to read, but figured I’d drop in and leave a comment/intro. Hello
How many times during a prep and how close to a meet can you test your maxes?
How advanced is the trainee? That’s the real question. My friend I coached for a meet recently “tested” maxes a few weeks out and PR’d over those on squat and dL but not bench because he took 9 days off bench going into a meet. Perrin is right. Testing a true max in a prep isn’t ideal but beginners and some intermediates can get away with itHow many times during a prep and how close to a meet can you test your maxes?

I noticed john haack does high bar even in comp. Pretty narrow stance toes really not pointed out. Does this have to with the fact he pulls conventional? Like you if you low bar wide stance should you pull sumo?

I'm not a powerlifter, but I personally squat fairly wide (wider than shoulder width for sure) and deadlift very narrow stance conventional. Not Rob Kearney narrow, but kinda close to that.Haack is and exception not really a rule. He been asked about his squat and he says that’s just what’s comfortable. There’s many lifters who deadlift sumo and squat with a pretty normal stance. I can’t think of many who squat very wide and deadlift conventional.
Im mostly surprised he doesnt turn his toes out! I defenitely dont have the hip mobility for thatHaack is and exception not really a rule.
