@alexis1 He's kind of like Camille; both are great athletes but always seem to get called on questionable reps.
Some athletes waste time on borderline reps when just doing them properly will get them a better score.
@trumpetsounds Wouldn't it be in a professional's best interest to do the least amount of movement in order to get the max amount of reps? The onus is on his judge to tell him that he's getting a no rep.
Look at football and basketball, all of the great players push the limits.
That being said, Bridges now has a target on his back at Regionals.
@novihartanti Exactly, as a competitor you want to ride the line and get whatever edge the official will let you have. What's bizarre is to do it in the open where HQ has the ability to apply a penalty to your score. Every rep should be unquestionable. Still hoping HQ will give Bridges a 15% penalty
@jaylgee1 Side by side comparison taken at the top of a legit rep and a no rep. No rep has butt visible(hips not fully extended)and shirt logo clearly out over the bar.
Deadlift standard is one thing, but why wasn't there video of how they came up with that HSPU line? As much as he struggled with the new standard last year, I'm going to be suspicious, especially given his wide hand and foot placement.
@brokenandconfused I'm surprised there weren't more comments about Josh's almost as bad 16.1 video submission where CJ was judging C2Bs several feet directly behind him and the floor lines could not be seen clearly. Would not trust anything he judges.
@brokenandconfused What a fool. CJ obviously screenshotted Josh's best rep and uses that as an example, cheerry picking bullshit. He should be ashamed of the other two on the far left and right.
