    Bring back the old lift companion format. 1-3 cameras awkwardly placed at a few angles and hard cuts between them. Seriously, that was a vibe

    One of the beauty’s of the lift companion is having the camera set up and letting the viewer take everything in. It’s hard when the camera man is constantly moving trying to get a “cool” angle.

  • @seanm3933
    @seanm3933 Před rokem

    I don't understand the squat jerk. It seems to me like everyone who does could just power jerk since they are locked out in the power position, but then, just to show off, they go ahead and add in a narrow grip overhead squat.

    • @samj8932
      @samj8932 Před rokem

      Power jerk means you have to drive it higher and have the force output to catch it higher.
      Squat jerk means you don't have to drive it as high, can catch lower, and can squat down further to reduce stress on your knee/ elbows.
      It's really just the natural progression of a power jerk. If you catch a power jerk at the right height but don't have the power to drive it back up and try and stay rigid, you'll lose it behind or in front. So naturally you have to squat down lower and absorb the force straight down.
