I use Powerlifts for everything but squat. I use Ironworks III for squats, or my backup pair is Adipowers. Powerlifts have a shorter heel, and the foam compresses with enough weight. I wish Adidas...

I've never competed, but my cousins are super into it. I've dabbled in some of the events at their house, but I'm pathetically bad at it. My cousin Nate was actually just on the Spartan Race show on...

Messaged, thanks!

Responded! Sorry guys, I was on vacay all week and didn't get online.

I'm still on the journey to 500:( I hit 405 for the first time almost 9 years ago.. And my bench has only gone down in the last 4 years. Best of luck!

Feels good throwin up that 525 in a SS.. the good ole days when I wasn't so old and weak.

You can find bars costing into the $1000+ range. They're not really necessary. A Texas Power Bar or some of Rogue's power bars (I think mine's an Ohio) are $250ish and will take anything you can do...

Sorry I had to split it, Youtube wouldn't let me edit the bench video since it had a song in the background.

Well, if you want to get technical, it has to stop in order for it to go back up. That whole derivative of the position function thing.

Only 400lbGorilla can judge me.

Here's entry #1. 405 @ 286 just to get one in the books. I'm between training cycles so it's been a few months since I've been over 315. My last training cycle I hit 445. My sig numbers were like 4...

USPA and USAPL are the feds you probably want to be looking at in Missouri. ADFPF/APF/APA also have some decent followings in Missouri. Raw typically means a belt, knee sleeves, and wrist wraps,...

His weights kinda look like that, but he just uses my bench.

Nice bump. I'm going to say 507.

My two year old has a play weight set. He insists on benching in-between all my sets. Every. Single. One.

Deadlift should be the lowest.

5-7 days for me. I usually do my planned warmup for the meet sometime in the Saturday to Monday timeframe for a meet the next Saturday.

I wouldn't recommend a Strengthshop belt. I bought one to replace my Inzer forever belt after I broke the lever, did a couple squats in it, put it in the box, sent it back, and bought a new Inzer...

All of the gear I own used to be IPF approved when I started. I've done 10+ USAPL meets. I like the judging. I like how the meets are run, the punctuatlity. I loathe the approved gear list. Inzer and...

$100 is a far cry from the tens of thousands of dollars for IPF approval. This is pretty much the #1 reason I don't lift USAPL anymore. I'm not going to shell out a couple hundred extra bucks to buy...

I would like to hit 700/500/600.

I think I'm strong enough to hit that 700, everything just hasn't quite lined up at the right time. I did 683 in August last year, and had a squat cycle this last...
