Thanks man I'm interested to see how it turns out; I'm kinda scared lol. My last PR was 620 and it's a 30lb leap so it'll be interesting to see how I fare. I'm confident though :-)

it is an inherit risk. i will do my best to stay safe

[agrier9]

Not a powerlifter I'm a bodybuilder. I feel if I started doing powerlifting it would divert my attention too much. Only reason I don't record squats is because I rarely ever 1rm with squats because the injury rate is higher. My best on squats is 500x2; I did 405 for 8 a couple weeks ago.

I'd hate to be on the opposing team in a football game when you're playing. A 550 squat, 365 bench, 563 deadlift...I'd be crushed lol. How long did it take you to get your strength to that level?

[Arman6]

wide stanced high bar; I've tried low bar once and I'm not very fond of it. However, due to the fact that my hammies are lagging I could be trying it again very soon.

gym lifts dont always translate to football. i have been training properly and seriously for a year and a bit, 1 year before that doing random ****.

i find low bar hard on my elbows so i dont do it often but try keeping the grip narrow as possible and elbows under the weight keeps the back tight and chest up

Gotchya I'll give it a try; main reason I didn't like low bar was because it felt harder on my knees than high bar.

low bar is a much more technical lift and less natural. lots of people start do weird stuff they wouldnt normally do or think is a good idea

Do you have any videos of 405lbs for 8 reps? or any squat videos?

doesn't have to be a 1rm

[waffles95]

VERY impressive lifts dude... you'll pull 600 for sure. Also gotta compliment you on your physique.. you don't see a lot of people with numbers like you having a nice looking body as well.
