[Black_Spit]

Opener looked like an opener. Second one didn't look like a crazy struggle either. Should be good confidence boosters, I'd think.

Oh you military guys

I'm excited to see what's up Friday but I still have a good 6 weeks of training left so it will not be the end all be all....just gotta REACT (shameless plug)

Not too bad....my cheater wraps did all the work for me

[HARRYBEAST]

Token lift for sure. That opener look like a cake walk

[Anthony21]

Awesome work NC, those squats looked butter man.

[NC_Tarheel]

I told Kemal that I'm a diva.. I squat with Ivanko or TPB at my house...not some curl in the squat rack special

[NC_Tarheel]

Awesome work NC, those squats looked butter man.

Thanks Ant.....you'll be there and higher soon enough

[Anthony21]

Thanks Ant.....you'll be there and higher soon enough

That'll be a good goal to shoot for and hopefully i'm squatting in the 300s soon. I'm hoping to get there before June.

just warm up to ten lbs over your opener, and then open up with 50. i would say just the bar but i think it would be funnier with a 2.5 on each side. if you do it, ill walk next door to that liquor store and buy crown for everyone.

[tug79boat]

yeah and we'll 180 back bump on the platform after you get the 50. damn that would be funny. just don't know if i could get serious enough to lift after something like that.

that would be epic on something like bench. cause a lot of guys with injuries take a token bench just to stay in the meet.
could totally pull it off

[Raigs]

410 was a fast rep very nice!.




why is there chalk on your butt?

nice work old man

[Anthony21]

Real good work bro and sweet shirt for the meet.

I'm dreading having to wear a singlet. Wtf do you even wear underneath it? Just a shirt and some boxers/briefs?
