You don't expect me to jump straight into the big lifts right? I wouldn't mind doing so if I had a coach. Unfortunately It is not possible.

WTH WTH WTHWTH WTH WTHWTH WTH WTHWTH WTH WTH OMG OMG OMG!!!!!       

that's the most n00b thing I've heard in my life!!!!!!! That's the most retarded statement ever!!! OMG!!!!!!

A routine is based on these core lifts because they work the explosiveness and reaction and CNS and muscle coordinatioN. IF you're afraid of these lifts, then DON'T use the routine. Find a mark rippetoe routine, find a madcow, formulate a westside routine, or follow a bicep curl routine. U CANNOT use a oly lifting routine, if you don't oly lift. That's a REALLY REALLY silly statement.

T: How can we modify this karate breathing and apply it to weight training?

Pavel: You have to learn to maximize this internal pressure but time it with exertion, in martial arts lingo, "match the breath with the force." One way of doing this is to pull up the rectal sphincter to increase the pressure further, take a normal breath - 75% of maximal breath is usually recommended by Russian scientists - and then you expel the air at really high pressure with your teeth pressed against your tongue: "ts-ts-ts!" Make sure not to release all your air, you need it to protect your back and joints.

In some exercises you have to modify this. For example, in the bench press your rib cage would sink in, your shoulders would come up, and you would die about three inches off your chest. So in the bench, you wait until you reach your sticking point and then power breathe. In squats and deadlifts, of course, you have to hold your breath because you can't afford to lose the air; you need to stabilize your spine. If you are really hard-core you may apply a highly sophisticated "reversed breathing" technique to your squats and deads. If you are interested, pick up an April 2001 copy of Powerlifting USA.
