    I wanted a 600lb squat when I was using my suit. I just didnt have enough time to adapt to the heavy loads. I was able to hit 550lbs for singles and doubles after a few weeks but once I got under 600lbs, it felt like a million pounds. Some day, I plan to get back into a suit but for now I want...

    Been a while... Last week I did 3 sets of doubles at 315 with a closer grip. Just messing aroundd with it. Saturday - worked up to a pretty easy 405x3 squat. Thursday - hit my bench again. Some shoulder pain here throwing me off... looked like this 225 x10, 225 x5, 275 x8, 295 x4.5, 225 x10...

    Good work in here man.... Just got all caught up. Looks like you'll be handling some real big weights in no time.

    Found an article with KK about it... he says this about his bench... I saw your raw bench press. You have very long arms, but you press with a close grip. Is it a habit? Or pecs injured? When I was young, I listened to “wise” people who said that grip should be maximally wide – 81 cm. The...

    He just might be on to something.... Sounds like I'll be doing some experimentation on Thursday with my grip.

    I told myself that I'd only do one set at 315 so Im not screwed come real bench day on Thursday. Maybe a closer grip bench will benefit me. KK has a pretty close grip on his bench as well. :)

    It felt super easy. I wasn't prepared at all for it to be that easy so I kind of caught myself off guard. I was only planning for one. Looking back I should have tried for a double or a triple.

    Hit some squats on Saturday. Worked up to 405 for 2 sets of 2. Getting a feel for my new pair of olympic lifting shoes. My problem in my squat is falling forward at the bottom. Im working on some mobility drills to help fix that. Today I did some close grip bench, worked up to 315 for a paused...

    They also don't make you the guy carrying grocery bags to the gym and the meet. I wish I had bought suit slippers with my suit.

    I'd say a cup of coffee in the morning and that'd be about it. A full power meet can easily go all day depending on the number of lifters. It'd take a lot of stims to keep you going all day.

    Gotcha. I think if you can get your technique squared away, you'll be pulling much more weight in no time. What are you goals for your upcoming meet?

    haha afraid not. The local butcher sells chicken chipsteak so I make some home made chicken cheese steaks. Pretty good and pretty lean. Then 2 hours later followed up by 3 scoops of whey, 1 cup of gluten free rice krispies (essentially puffed brown rice), a banana, 4 tbspn of peanut butter...

    how tall are you big man? How much mobility work do you do for your hips/glutes/hamstrings?

    Why don't you pull conventional? Sorry if its been mentioned already... If you are going to st ick with sumo then you should flare your knees out more, get closer to the bar, and get your hips more into it. The weight looked easy for you but you need to squat down to the bar more and keep your...

    I do squat pretty narrow. I picked up some adidas weightlifting shoes from rogue yesterday. Should be delivered tomorrow.

    I squatted in chucks for the longest time. Then I moved to wrestling shoes... I just bought a pair of olympic weightlifting shoes that I'm going to try this weekend.
