3 n00b Questions

[Ganryu]

Hello:

Thanks to everyone who has helped me along the way so far. There truly is a wealth of knowledge here (some good, some bad). Anyway, 3 DUMB questions:

1. How the hell do I use the "squat cage"?
2. Can anyone recommend a link that contains pics/description and good form for lifts? Mostly Deads, SL deads, Squats, etc.
3. What do all of the abbreviations stand for (DE, WR, ME, etc).

Thanks in advance.

This should help a little. Scroll down a bit, and there is videos of the above.

A sticky...what a great idea. I wonder how many times I have looked DIRECTLY at that the last few weeks...sorry about that.

DE = Dynamic Effort - AKA Speed
ME = Max Effort
Both of those above refer to the WSB (West Side Barbell) method of training.

PR = Personal Record - AKA more weight than previously done on given lift.
