I've been repping the crap out of people in here!
A post earlier got me to thinking about changes over the last few years. Here is a set of photos from 7/15/2010 followed by me wearing the same singlet tonight.
I wish I had worn a sleeveless shirt in the 2010 pic
I think I need to buy a bigger singlet

These lifts were all within the last 7 days! a bunch of PRs
Dead Lift 395 X 1 at 171 lb. This was a PR
(I know my form wasn't the best...)
Squats 205 X 8 (done after dead lifts, same day as the vid above). This one wasn't a PR but I liked the form. (My PR for squat is actually 225 X 12 and 275 X 5)
2nd time ever doing front squats: 165 X 5
Military Press 140 X 4 This was a PR
Bench 225 X 5 This was a PR

If I want to play with the 'big boys' eventually I knew I would have to drop the straps from deads. Lifting at home on the second floor of my house made them a necessity. Found my new place to do deads are working up to doing some for real now.
I know I have decent forearm strength, but wanted to be sure, so today I loaded up 6 plates to see how it felt.
Rack pulls are not something I have ever done as the top part of the lift is not my weakness. But I figured I would do it to see how it felt. Anyway.....I think I am good to ditch the straps. With 6 plates I did not feel any strain on holding it.
Looking for some good lifts now in the coming months. I think 600 will come real soon if I can get past this nagging hamstring pull I have had for a while.

Thanks -I watched a lot of vids first because pretty much no one does front squats at my gym (it's a "health club"). I came across a couple of vids on youtube which explain using the straps if you don't have good wrist flexibility. I like it better than the cross arm method.

I do it both ways, clean grip and bb'er style. Since it's only your 2nd time doing them I'll go ahead and say that I don't like where the bar is located for your front squats. It's sitting right on top of your delts, that's why the bar is wobbling side to side so much. The cross arm method actually creates a nice groove behind your delt and on top of your collar bone so it's *almost* unnecessary to touch the bar with your hands. Clean grip brings the delts up even more to lock the bar in place. Just my $.02
