365 High Bar Paused - Rileh

[Rileh]

absolutely smoked this, probably could have probably done 385 but didn't have a spotter or safety's so i didn't want to risk it.

2nd squat session of the week, current bodyweight around 169. all i can say is i can not wait to go back to low bar.



followed this up with 310 3x5 paused and then some really wide stance sumo 3x4 with 365.

I thought you were wearing a headband at the beginning of the video.

your squat has been skyrocketing crazy fast, you squat more than most people on this forum and you haven't even been lifting for a year yet.

work on that bench though

Solid man, but I'm not sure I would call that paused it got slower near the bottom but I can't really see a pause anywhere.

first time pausing anything less than 4 reps so it was a bit weird. i think it did come to a complete stop for a split second however. and my projected high bar max is around 405 right now so was definitely much harder.

Not really a paused squat but good job none the less.

Considering it took at least 30 pounds off my max it was probably effective.

yea, the goal was to come to a complete stop and go up. sometimes when i watch it i think i did and sometimes it looks like i jumped the gun too early. but it flew up fast so oh well.

think right now i have a 405 high bar in me and a 430 low bar, maybe 435

****ty squat rack and no one here knows how to spot, like at all. so i will more than likely never go past 95% at this gym. only one in my town, school gym i can barely get access to *need supervision* and i live 40km away from my school so can barely go. pretty much just when i have p.e class i can get a squat session in there.

damn thats awesome

thanks brah
