Thanks for sharing this. Ever since my surgery, I've used a more quad dominant stance. I watched these last night and reassessed my form this morning.

Much appreciated.

I watched these videos (at least 1-3) and he says to keep your head UP during the squat. In Starting Strength, Mark Rippetoe says to keep your head down looking at a point 4 to 5 feet in front of you on the floor.

I like Mark Rippetoe's videos for the basic barbell techniques. Check him out on Youtube.

My personal preference is Dave Tate for bench press over Rippetoe however I still think Rip's info is legit and this is really just a personal preference on my part.

agreed.
I get my info from elitefts.net, they have some good videos on youtube as well.

Dave Tate > Rip
He's stronger, has more experience, gives more back to the strength community, etc.

Ripp also has a video of him squatting 315x10 with questionable form, and slow speed.
Matt Wenning (from the SYTYCS video) squats over a grand................

who do you want to take advice from?

Last night I watched the "so you think you can bench" series. This morning I used some of the techniques I learned and I CRUSHED my bench press, as well as incline press. They almost felt effortless. I can't wait to watch the others. Thanks again to all for your reccomendations.

This one? I really need to examine my technique as I'm stalled.
