In Response To: squats at ipf worlds (Tim)

Some thoughts:

1) I don't know what their carryover is from their squat suits. I'm a raw lifter, so I'm out of my depth here; but I think they get at least 10%. : )

2) I think their squats would drop by more than 10% if they attempted a raw max.

3) Your mention of Olech gives me the opportunity to note how uniquely efficient his set-up is--two steps! What other lifters set up in two? To borrow the line from Spaceballs, Olech's WR was done with ludicrous speed.

4) I'm pretty sure Olech is strong is hell without gear and definitely Hooper. Hooper's training footage on YouTube has some raw stuff like a 400 lb. bench for a single or double as I recall and some raw squats.
