I don't owe Rashid or any of these other assholes a single goddamn thing, because this shit is free. So far. It either makes sense, or it doesn't, and if they can't form a logical refutation other that to post a picture of some guy doing something somewhere sometime, I win. And even that doesn't matter, because I don't care about the 3000 people in the US that do 90/120 at Olympic weightlifting meets on Saturday 4 times a year. I care about everybody else that doesn't already know how the best in the world do this shit, and therefore how it must be done, and will therefore continue to do 90/120 with "perfect technique" for the rest of their time in the gym.
See? Mistake.
