Squat from pins to remove stretch shortening cycle and from rounghly a half squat to get closer to the starting position i will be in when attempting a throw. Will do these as well as normal squatsHonestly, I think the effectiveness of this kind of training with weights is overstated and not really useful. It's easy to fall into, though, because you are lead to believe that you're doing a movement pattern that is specific to your sport/activity. What you really end up doing is shortening the movement pattern from the full range of motion, and you can cause more stress on the knee by doing so.Something to keep in mind when strength training is to remember that strength is a general physical adaptation. You strength train, and you get stronger. You get better at doing your activity by practicing your activity. I honestly think you'll see better results in your MA activities if you just continue to do squats through the full range of motion, making yourself stronger overall, than you will by trying to make lifting weights look like your MA activity.My two cents, but I thought I'd offer. https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm also looking at it like an overload type of thing. Still doing (and won't stop doing) normal full range squats as they are essential i think, but have seen plenty of stuff about the benefits of using partials to get used to having more weight etc on shoulders. Might play about with them still from that perspective but you do make some very good points Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bushido_man96 Posted May 23 Share Posted May 23 If you want more weight on your shoulders, doing heavy walkouts can accomplish what you want there. After you finish your heavy work set, add another 10-20%, walk it out, and see how it feels. https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
