moi je pense que encore une fois Arthur Jones a raison, il explique très clairement qu'on peut devenir plus fort que ce que peut supporter le squelette humain et qu'utiliser de telles charges n'est pas utile pour batir un corps le plus gros possible !! C'est une des raison pour lesquelles il dit de faire du FULL Squat et non du "Partial Squat"
"In the author’s (DIEU) opinion, the human skeleton simply was not designed to support such loads for prolonged periods of time; for any purpose except power lifting competition, all of the benefits that can be provided by squats can be derived without using more than 400 pounds, and in most cases without using more than 300 pounds."
donc en simple : PAS PLUS de 136kg en FULL SQUAT and NEVER MORE than 180kg !!!!!
Je précise qu'Arthur est LE spécialiste en matière de lombaires, les meilleurs centres de réhaibliation de Suisse et d'Allemagne utilisent les machines de Dieu.
In the first ten years, over 10,000 medical, educational and sports institutions worldwide purchased Nautilus equipment. In 1980 there were over 1,300 fitness centers using Nautilus; by 1985 the number exceeded 5,000.
the MedX Lumbar Extension machine - Jones called this "a partial solution for the forty billion dollar annual problem for industry, insurance and government."
Taking pride of place is the MedX Lumbar Extension machine, the sovereign remedy for the prevention and rehabilitation of low back pain.
PS pour les halterophiles en herbe :
"Olympic lifting, the suddenness of movement is probably the most dangerous factor -- such sudden movements, under heavy loads, impose tremendous G forces on both the muscles and tendons. In performing a clean and jerk with 400 pounds, a man may momentarily expose his muscles and tendons to a force that is actually ten times as heavy as the weight being employed; and such forces sometimes tear out tendons or seriously injure muscles."

SQUAT and GOD (quand il dit SQUAT c'est FULL SQUAT, as low as safe)
There is no slightest question about the effectiveness of squats; they are certainly one of the most result producing exercises in existence -- and, until quite recently, they were the most result producing single exercise in existence. But it is not necessary to do heavy, single attempt squats in order to derive benefit from them; on the contrary, the most result producing version of squats is the practice of sets of from fifteen to twenty repetitions
If two sets -- or a maximum of three sets -- of squats are practiced two times weekly, and if a weight is used that will barely permit the performance of between fifteen and twenty repetitions, then this work will stimulate enormous overall growth, while increasing endurance, improving condition, and building great strength in both the legs and lower back as well as building a lesser degree of strength throughout the body from the previously mentioned "indirect effort."
Such people -- who exist in their thousands -- have been quick to spread the rumors about the supposed danger to the knees from squats; because, then, they have an excuse for not performing them.
If you still remain unconvinced, then ask yourself just why I am so anxious to convince you of the value of squats; after all, it makes no slightest difference to me whether you do squats or not -- or "how" you do them, if you do them. Squats are not something that I can sell you, nor did I invent them -- they are simply a very good form of exercise that cannot be duplicated insofar as benefits are concerned by any other single exercise.
Do them, or don’t do them -- but if you don’t, then you probably will suffer from knee injuries.
j'adore la conclusion

alors que tout le monde dit SQT = danger pour les genoux, GOD dit : faites du SQT ou vous aurez des problèmes de genoux !!!!
