215kg would be nice :D do you know how many lifters will there be?[/QUOTE]
Not entirely sure since i've only heard a vague "tons". But seriously get ready to hear some yelling lol. Btw front squat looks awsome. I've been doing them for the past week going up to 225 for singles trying to learn clean grip form. So far i've torn a good chunk of skin off the base of my thumb from the bar rolling.

was feeling like sh!t today. squats felt terrible. i tried my old wide stance low bar squat and i seemed to have lost all hip power in the hole. switched back to high bar close stance immediately. back felt alright today but my knees hurt like hell...tylenol + icing. bench was easy
i should start fixing my sleeping schedule because school starts either tomorrow or wednesday...im not even sure.

10 reps in with 80% and no major back pain is great brah... I think you'll be okay in the long run.
Went to Hong Kong style dinner last night with like 60 people... so many different animals were eaten.

I've heard good things about the Dowins brah and highbar squatting with oly shoes=win. Don't know how people feel comfortable high bar squatting with normal shoes and no heel. It's a bit late now but theres an oly coach here that sells his oly shoes Kanamas for $109. I use them and i'd say theyre awsome. He also sells Nike Romaleos for $189. [url]http://www.kanamahp.ca/store/shoes[/url]
I think you'll get some instant extra poundage from the shoes.

i actually feel pretty comfortable squatting in normal flat shoes because im so used to it. but i've heard so much great things about oly shoes.
i did check out that website but the kanamas are out of my size and the romaleos are too expensive...

Best part was that after we got the 北京烤鴨 they bring out a different dish with all the different parts of the duck. ****ing epic. I know you are a hong konger but I really prefer northern food
