I know right!?? I become a huge form Nazi when it comes to squats though. When a dude tells me he's putting up big numbers (..
and doesn't have the physique to support the statement), my eyebrows automatically raise and my BS meter becomes alert. I immediately resort to questions about depth. I lost a solid 75 lbs. on my squat alone when I went from the "
parallel" camp to the "
ass-to-grass" camp. The squatters that don't even hit parallel, but who have 315 lbs. on the bar and claim to squat 315, make me laugh. It took me awhile to get my numbers back up. When I started going ass-to-grass, I dropped all the way down to 135 lbs. and worked back up. It's amazing what a difference an extra 5 or 6 inches makes. I can ATG 390 for 1 rep right now.
