Yet one of the things I think most heavy lifters are missing from the equation with the lighter bells is the acceleration factor.If you factor that in ( one can create TEN TIMES the face value of the bell weight IF it's not too heavy) then the forces are HUGE and would translate much better into heavy squats and deads.It's the same idea as using a speed day for the powerlifts. Why this keeps getting missed I don't know.
