In Response To: Don, I must disagree! (Regis Becker)

don't throw in Peter Tanev's weakness concerning his hard 140kg front squats as a result of not being on drugs. He became very ill, lost a lot of weight (got donwn to 64 kilos) and tried to resume training once better (which you saw). The complications due to this illness caused him to retire at 27(maybe 28). Strossen commented on this illness on the tape and later found out more concerning the illness. Drugs can increase performance (there is some differring data) between 5-10% which means Casey burgener could do 200 and 245 on drugs. peter best front squat (235-240) would be around 205-210 without drugs. peformance does not cause someone's squat to drop off nearly 70 kilos (did 175 max on the video your referring to.
