Decided to seriously give biofeedback training a whirl today, after speaking with Jason from Shoggoth Basement regarding this he seems to be getting good results so I thought, why not!
I tested trapbar deadlifts, kettlebell clean and jerk, kettlebell snatch, barbell clean and jerk, barbell snatch, barbell squat.(all from my targets list over the next 3-6 months)
Barbell squat test by far the best, barbell clean and and jerk and barbell snatch came out second and third (I used the toe touch method)
So bearing in mind I haven't squatted for months(about 6 and then 6 before that) or properly trained for a few weeks except for my kettlebell lunches due to work issues, I squatted with no wraps or belt and only used some knee sleeves to keep my knees warm.
I expected to do pretty badly on the squat and feel some serious discomfort, but suprisingly squatted heavier than I ever have without a belt or wraps.
I worked from 70kgx10, 100kgx10, 120kgx5, 140kgx5, 160kgx5, 180kg (2x5) and finished off with 200kg x 2 reps RAW except sleeves. Now this is not beast strength or any thing but I'm most impressed I could do this with little training and with no adverse effects. I even felt heavier was possible for a single and who knows with wraps and belt.
Is it because it tested well? Who knows, I'll tell you when I've done some more. There may be something in Bio feedback training
Here's a short video of the squats (no need to mention squat techique or that I weigh as much as the bar)
I also worked upto 100kg clean and jerk for 3x6 and barbell snatch 70kg 3x6 and finished off with some one handed light hammer striking
