I see you reppin dat xxxl


Happy for you on da pee arra

Wrong.

Wade sent me a 4XL with instructions to "grow into it *******"

[NC_Tarheel]

Nice squat.

Too bad you can't keep that upper back from rounding. You are losing all momentum out of the hole.

I think some of the rounding is due to it being a max lift and fatigue. Yes my form is still a work in progress but the other sets with 415 weren't too bad at all.

[NC_Tarheel]

Nice work man. That squat was solid and slow

That was on purpose. I wanted to "feel the burn"

Leaners gonna lean

The positive is that I used to lean with 315. Now I don't. If I'm not going to lean squatting 445, I just gotta get my squat up to 575.

So true. I think my "lean" now is better with 315 than it used to be with 275.

Less talk more squatting.

I am ALMOST officially a powerlifter....singlet arrived in the mail while I was gone.

I now have a ton of respect for you NC. For some reason when I squeeze into the singlet I feel like I am way too tall.

I am too tall for my Medium size singlet and it applies more pressure at the pivotal points than I am comfortable with.
