Hey guys I've been thinking about diving into the Westside template and have a few questions. So I've read over a lot of info on it and still don't have a clear answer on what to do on ME lower day. It says squat/dead lift variation and I'm supposed to pick one. How do you guys set this up? Do...
Man I thought you actually got the hint and left the thread. But I guess not. Every time I read your post I just think about the dbags that think they have great form and are awesome at lifting like johnnyroundbackdeadlift or idonttouchmychestbenchcuztheysayitsbad.
So can a squat suit be used for dead lifts or would I need a separate suit ? And what about briefs? Is there one that I could just use for both? Or are they setup differently? I squat a little wide but nothing crazy wide and conventional dead lift if that helps.

OK thanks man. And as far as quality gear, Metal is the best in the industry as far as I've heard. Is this correct? How long can I expect to use the gear before it starts to lose its stiffness?
Bro seriously leave this thread. This is not a debate about weather you think people use powerlifting gear only because they aren't strong enough to do it raw. BS. I was merely asking for advice on getting in to using powerlifting gear not an ignorant debate. Leave your BS out of this thread...
Current Raw PR's are
Squat 335
Bench 275
Dead 345
Current Raw goals
Squat 405
Bench 315
Dead 405
I know all these are attainable goals being a raw lifter. I more or less just wanted to know if gear would have any carry over into raw training. I do use a slingshot for some heavy singles and...
Hey guys I've been thinking about powerlifting gear and if it was worth it or just stay raw. The only thing I've seen is that most people start out in single ply and move up to multi ply. What is your guys advice on powerlifting in gear vs raw? Should I get new or used gear? Best place to buy...
