Coach Q&A this Saturday at 10 AM — bring your meet prep questions. I’ll cover peaking and deload.
Hey Rajesh, glad the breakdown helped. Let me know how the setup feels — sometimes a slight stance tweak makes a big difference.
Feroz, I’ve used the Toro lever for about 6 months. It’s stiff enough for 200kg squats but takes a few sessions to break in. Good value under ₹3000.
Sunil, watched your form check — your descent looks solid. Try bracing harder at the bottom to avoid the slight forward lean.
