Training with Spondylolysis

[BenCooper]

There many things wrong with this squat. But lumbar flexion/extension positioning is not one of them.

Thanks. Will figure out how to fix it.

One last question: I normally only use a belt for squats with 85% or higher. Would it be a good idea also use them for lighter ones? Planning to do Juggernaut Method where the first month is 10 reps with 55%.

Sorry, I'm not qualified to coach The JuggerNaut Method.

Didn't mean it specific to Juggernaut Method. Rather: considering I have Spondylolysis, at which percentage of my 1RM should I start using a belt for squats?

Thanks

I put my belt on at 135 after the 3rd set.

Obviously, my untrained eye is missing many things but what is the biggest two flaws with this squat?

1. He hasn't read the book.

2. He hasn't been to a Starting Strength Seminar.

Don't be like this guy.

Let me answer my own question and you can shit all over it.
Bar path good, depth good, back angle too vertical.
Am I even close?
