[@rabbittrance]

he squats 120kg like literally faster than i air squat

[@agentsmith9858]

He squats 220kg faster than a lightly obese full grown man too

[@louderthangod]

Part of that is stretch reflex...unloaded you’re not going to activate that response. Also he has a absurd power to weight ratio.

[@77714anthony]

He is not human

[@sergiotl7378]

[@djxkoxxf6898]

We knees his taint to kiss the ground, god damnit! lol

[@bap2218]

If he doesnt glitch through the floor it doesnt count.

[@poochyboi]

Clarences joints must be held together by God's will. especially at the end of range in those squats.

[@avocado6623]

Full rom is actually better for your knees.

[@sergiotl7378]

Avocado You'll never convince of that truth to some people. They'd rather get their advice from general fitness or bodybuilding channels.

[@signs80]

Also the reason he does his squats like that is because his knees are NOT held together by gods will, by shifting forward it lets him transfer more of the load onto his hips on the way up

[@majungasaurusaaaa]

His knees are beat up and have gone through surgery. Saying Oly lifting is healthy for the knee joints is like saying boxing is perfectly healthy for the brain. You do what you do to minimize damage, your body can take quite a bit but eventually things will catch up on an elite level.

[@ChrisRey3156]

I did notice that he does a low bar squat movement on the way up, good ole hip drive.

[@ibraheemabrar4677]

'I dropped it cos I wanted it to look cool'. Ahaha the honesty

[@AnzaShadow]

And he succeeded

[@i_booba]

@@AnzaShadow It was definitely 10x more badass with the drop.

[@dubsteak]

Imagine having your 1RM only limited by the loadable lenght of your barbell :o

[@midnightaustin9287]

No one talks about his friend slamming weight into his upper back?

[@shanecorrigan8524]

Midnight Austin that’s just how you do snatch balance for reps

[@koreaface]

That’s why I think Clarence should use power lifting calibrated plates

[@forbesfoofighters]

Midnight Austin he’s absorbing it as he catches it on his traps by bending his knees

[@goodfella60]

@searcher quit getting so butthurt. You seem like such a bothered little bitch, really.

[@riverwalkhomebuyers]

@searcher causes a lot of issues for some people. I used to squat super deep with good form and I ended up having knee pain. Laid off and kept it just below parallel now and no problems.

[@majungasaurusaaaa]

They've had surgical repair done. So no, they're not indestructible.

[@chrism45]

@searcher maybe if you have straight knees and ankles. I try atg but I get knee pain though I have very flat feet and pretty substabtial knee valgus. I've recently dropped weight to try and fix my form I'll see what I can do cause I prefer ATG squats.

[@sergiotl7378]

Chris M You don't have to go ass to grass if you don't have the mobility for it. Just go as low as you can while maintaining a good and safe posture. Clarence mobility is very good, not everybody can get to those positions.

Wow what a strength.. i can't express in words how much this video inspired me..

[@Erebosmagnus]

I appreciate the different cameras angles; I'm trying to get a sense of how much back involvement is permissible in my own maximal high-bar squatting and seeing Clarence do it with maximal loads is really helpful.

[@i_booba]

Yeah, the key really seems to be keeping your torso as rigid as possible. As long as your back doesn't round, you should be ok.

[@rufushomanen5735]

Thats why I like his squat. He is good at using his posterior chain and not only the quads like many weightlifters

His form, as you said, is impeccable. However, there's still many uninformed people who believe that ATG squats are harmful for your knees. This guy is an olympic weightlifter, not a crossfitter. But he's training at a crossfit box because that's a very good place to train the olympic lifts. Great quality plates, barbells, platforms, etc...
