That got me thinking how they would judge ATG squats lol. Would your booty have to literally touch your heels/floor? or have a judge kinda estimate if that is truthfully how far down one can go ? Just curious lol

It would be hard to judge how far down can an individual can go. But yeah, not everyone would have the flexibility to go that low to be truthful, so it's unlikelyMy Training Log: http://wlforums.com/forums/showthread.php?968-Izzy-s-Training-Log

Awesome man! Hurt my back watching (I have an old injury) but that was impressive.
The other day some friends I were goofing off with those....ahh what do you call them? pistol squats? where you go down with one leg and one leg out infront of you? Like a one-legged atg squat lol. Getting one plate proved to be a challenge hehe.2014 Misc Raw Bench Press Contest winner in the 276lb+ 555lb lift @ ~280lbs

It's been a great competition. I've always thought competition brought out the best in people and it certainly does.
Congrats to everyone that made the leader board and hit PR's. Keep lifting and no where to go but up.
Sir_Malak, you sir, are a monster lol. 605 looked kind of easy for you. Thanks for letting some light shine on the little guy. You've given me great motivation. No time for sleep.
Thanks to all the sponsors. You guys have made a lot of guys happy.
Thanks to 400lb G for putting this together. I really amped about it cause I'm not good at anything else lol.Bench Savage/Strength Savage

Congrats everyone and thank you 4G for hosting this
Thanks to everyone who gave me bench press tips...I feel like my bench press is going up as a result of that, and even though I didn't place, it was still very useful!
Squat competition sounds fun!My powerlifting journal:

no curls but squat is most likely up next.
I am still waiting for Iceman to give me word on the one last entry I had issues with but after that I will be PMing the Supp Reps with all the names they need and they will get a hold of you as they need to. please allow a little while for the Reps to get a hold of you and get the prizes out. They are quick but they are not superhuman.....
well they think they areYou would be surprised just how much time I have to waste.
