U quad or glute dominant?

I think glute dominant but I am never super sure about these things.

What do ur max effort /real hard squats look like:

A: come fast out the hole, maintain positioning, hit a hard sticking point just out of the hole.

B: out the hole knees shift back, tendency is to lean over/good morning, hips rise faster than shoulders

I tend to power out of the hole, knees cave, lean over some. I don’t have a lot of really hard squat video’d from the side for some reason. But I am referencing these

Yeah looks like glutes/back relatively strong vs quads. I’m quad heavy so I train glutes more

Probably why I instinctively don’t train glutes or lowerback very often, on the same token I don’t think my quad training has been very good and relying too much on barbell squats to build them up. More Hack Squats to come lol

So I picked out a competition a while back, that was far enough out that I knew I would have adequate time to prepare for it after having a chance to get back into the swing of training. Will probably be competing as lightweight this time. I feel good about the event weights. This is at the beginning of August

Belt Squat (w/ Knee Bands)
x 5 @ 156
2 x 12 @ 88
x 22 @ 88

Decided to go for broke on the last set. Cranked up Dragon Sin, pulled the hoodie over my eyes, and went to a dark place in my head. The RPE curve is definitely messed up by the bands pulling on my knees.

Leg Ext
x 20 @ 60, 70, 80

Was mentally charged up from heading to my dark place for the last set of Belt Squat, did my first rep, fucking kicked it up so hard it got stuck. That song I posted 2 days ago is a good song for me to get in the zone.

Leg Curl
x 20 @ 60, 70
x 18 @ 80

Trap Bar Shrug 2 x 50
OH Shrug 2 x 30
Band Straight Arm Pulldown 3 x 25

Got sick back pump from these 3.

Band Pushup (Blue band) 3 x 12

Getting hyped up hits me with extra fatigue

Same, but I feel like its inconsequential for this training block.

Nek minute burns out and gets injured
