>>47942 you're about fifty percent right. olympic squats go a lot further than just past parallel and are not performed slow. in fact, where the fuck does slow come into it? if you're going for a world record in powerlifting, then the weight necessitates great control, which reduces speed due to the enourmous pressure your body is under. percentages of your one rep max, meh, blast 'em as fast as you can control them, ie, as fast as you can maintain technique. for some people, this is very fast.
on the concentric part of the movement, you have to blast them with heavy weight, you have to go as fast as possible otherwise you will fail. your cns has to be hitting overdrive. with powerlifters for example (weightlifters too) it only looks like they're going slow due to the enourmous opposing force generated by gravity working on the bar.
