However, for someone who parallel squats or box squats 500-plus pounds, the 55-pound All-American chain would be a great but still realistic challenge that would produce the intended results.<br><br>The Varsity Chain: For athletes who bench less than 200 pounds and squat with less than 300 pounds.<br><br>The All-State Chain: For athletes who bench between 200 and 300 pounds, and squat between 300 and 400 pounds. <br><br>The All-American Chain: For athletes who bench over 300 pounds and squat over 400 pounds. <br><br>Versatility: Two chains will fit easily on each side of the bar. Therefore, different combinations can be created. By putting the All-State and All-American Chains on together, you can add 62 pounds on the bench and 95 pounds on the squat.<br>Recording: I recommend recording what is on the bar plus the code of whatever chain you are using. Use  VC for the Varsity Chain,  AS for the All-State Chain and  AA for the All-American Chain. For example, an athlete who does 185 pounds plus the Varsity Chain would record <br>185 VC.<br>The BFS Lifting Chains will make a difference. Our easy-on/off collar makes their use extremely effective and safe. Have fun with them and get new maxes quicker than ever before!ese lines as reference points.&nbsp; An athlete might put his first finger on each line with his thumb behind the bar.&nbsp; Now, he is properly balanced with a wide grip and has some assurance that the bar will remain secure on his shoulders.&nbsp; He is now ready to place the bar on the shoulders.&nbsp; </P> <P align=left><STRONG>B. Bar Position:</STRONG>&nbsp; A very common mistake for athletes who squat is placing the bar too high on the shoulders.&nbsp; In fact, many athletes place the bar right on the neck.&nbsp; This hurts, so they'll use a barbell pad.&nbsp; For most athletes, this also affects proper balance for heavy squatting.&nbsp; The vast majority of athletes will squat more and squat more effectively with more comfort when the bar is placed lower on the shoulders as shown in figure 9.&nbsp; Only a very, very small percentage of athletes will be able to squat&nbsp; more effectively with a high bar placement and this is because of structural differences in bone length and tendon-muscle attachments.</P> <P align=left>Some power lifters will place the bar extremely low on the shoulders.&nbsp; Sometimes the bar may be as much as four inches from the top of the shoulders, which is against the rules.&nbsp; For some lifters, this may give a slight anatomical advantage or the advantage may be experienced because of a heavy, tight lifting suit or even lack of flexibility.&nbsp; Whatever the reason, extreme low&nbsp;bar placement squatting will detract from overall leg development which is obviously bad for an athlete.</P> <P align=left>Most athletes will be able to find a natural groove on the shoulders when they come under the bar in a proper position.&nbsp; "Don't put the bar on your neck; put it on your shoulders.&nbsp; Find a groove."&nbsp; In almost every case, if you say these technique cues, athletes will be able to have excellent bar placement during their squat.</P> <P align=left><STRONG>C. Taking the Bar off the Rack:</STRONG>&nbsp; I've seen high school athletes get all psyched to squat and get their shoulders 2-3 inches under the bar.&nbsp; Then, with an explosive movement, jam their shoulders against the bar.&nbsp; Well, jamming your shoulders against a steel bar from this
