Pin Squats

This exercise can be used from various positions to strengthen individual weaknesses in the squat.
Similarly to pause squats, they work by removing the stretch reflex thus making the concentric phase harder.
Use lower pins (below parallel/just above parallel) to strengthen the bottom and mid range portion of the squat. Work with 3-5 sets of 3-5 reps at 70-85% of 1RM

Use higher pins with heavier loads, 80-100%+ for 3-4 sets of 2-4 reps to work on the lockout of the squat.

The floor press

A great exercise to strengthen the mid range of your bench press by heavily working your chest, shoulders and triceps.
The floor press negates any leg drive and the decreased range of motion removes any undue stress on the shoulder.
