We've been using a linear progression for our training program and as a result we haven't attempted any PR's since the last meet, this will change in a few weeks and hopefully we'll be posting PR's on a weekly if not daily basis_Darwin Barbell Club

Dad Strength

Quote From Dan John on OHS:
"It builds “Dad Strength." When my friends and I used to lift the old six foot bar with cement filled weights, we all thought we were pretty strong. Then, Dad would ask us to help him move a car engine or open a rusted jar of nuts and bolts, or put the ping pong table up on a rack for storage. Yes, I was the strongest kid in the four-house area, but every Dad had that scary kind of strength that allows one to pick an engine out of a Pontiac station wagon and carry it to the lawn.
Overhead squats build that kind of strength. For an athlete, it turns your body into “one piece.”
