He had to accept going lighter temporarily, which is a genuine ego challenge for lifters accustomed to chasing load — but the muscular return on full ROM squatting far exceeded anything he had achieved at 90 degrees. The prescription is simple and executable: get strong at these two movements, train through full range of motion, and the legs will develop [1] — Sal Di Stefano "Barbell squat plus Romanian deadlift covers quads, hamstrings, and glutes completely. Full range of motion on the squat — working past 90 d…" 22:48 .
