maxed out loading at 145. pretty good, two weeks ago my max was 115. i was reading the crossfit cert manual and it reminded me of squating with the weight at the heels and not on the balls of my feet. that really helped alot.

Partial squats are never good. They neglect the hips and hamstrings. When an athlete stops above parallel, his/her knee joints are forced to halt the downward momentum. But once the athlete goes below parallel, that stress is transferred to the more powerful muscle groups in the hips (glutes), lumbars, hamstrings, and adductors. Full squats keep all these muscle groups proportionately strong. -Bill Starr, PH.D. John Hopkins University
