How Fast should you Squat: Descent Speed

Found this video useful? Consider buying me a coffee: https://tinyurl.com/y59axw3d

Here, I go into some detail about some of the relationships that will affect how fast you should descend in your squat and bench press.

The general rule is that you should go as fast as you can (to get the best stretch-reflex possible) that allows you to stay tight and in control of the movement.

Going faster increases risk of error, however, sometimes you must be willing to make those risks. For example, after a really grindy 2nd attempt squat, it might be worthwhile to "roll the dice" and attack your 3rd attempt with more speed. If you hit it right, you might be pleasantly surprised that you actually make the lift. Whereas, if you stuck to your "normal" decent, you would stand no chance.

Understanding these relationships can help you make better judgments about your training and competition habits
