The importance of exercising full ROMs all joints is a must. Casler writes: Hi , I would be interested in why you assert that " exercising full ROMs (of) all joints is a must " ? While there certainly is value in training various ROM's, what do you mean by " a must " ? And please don't construe this question as overly contentious, but that is a broad assertion, and might need qualification, especially since you go on in your answer to then suggest " not " exercising the FROM of all the lumbar joints.

Guest guest Posted March 7, 2008 Report Share Posted March 7, 2008 Once again I am having difficulty responding to the good posts regarding the squat. Are the full squats for overall strengthening? for transfer to a particular sport or group of sports? for preparation for explosive training? For beginners? for elite athletes? For powerlifters? to be done in the GPP? SPP? Only with these answers shoud we address the depth and/or other aspects of execution.
