Keep it going, luv the intensity!

well fred hatfield held the side uprights of the rack when he squatted so I figured one hand on my leg for balance would be acceptable. Hopping to get that 270 straight clean though. I guess I am re evaluating my 270 goal to 305, I think at this point that is attainable

Of Course why do I respond to posts Nobody ever replies back. Post and run right, guess those political discussions and Political threads are really important
Good night

[LWW]

LOl well sorry, anyway I never knew Hatfield did that, but I really don’t follow him. Good info.

[charlievanriper]

LOl well sorry, anyway I never knew Hatfield did that, but I really don’t follow him. Good info.

Ya yrs ago I saw him squat about 850, non competition. It was pretty cool to watch, soon after that he broke the 1000lb mark (that I would have loved to see)
In anycase he used to hold the side uprights while squatting heavy during training sessions and this led him to developing the hatfield squat this is essentially a safety bar squat where you place your hands on a bar in front of you, this allows you to get an overload from heavier weight than you could normally. He Also developed the Hatfield safety squat bar. Just a little history lol

Dam brother you just gave me an idea

Hell yeah, so you ever hear of Joe Kinney? He did those safety squats using his arms for support and did 440x60, HUGE controversy because this was back before Internet chit.

Some dumb fuk recorded himself squatting to a bench 405 x 21 to prove Joe didn't do it, I'm like WTF, the dumb fuk had 10 more reps in him and it was his first go. Joe said he did these all the time, plus the @sshole did regular squats not arm assisted. Man these young fuks are stupid as hell today

GOOD MORNING

wake up was 5am -Some coffee, some reading Meditations, then Greenlights by Matthew David McConaughey then Bk

Begin the morning by saying to yourself, I shall meet with the busy-body, the ungrateful, arrogant, deceitful, envious, unsocial. All these things happen to them by reason of their ignorance of what is good and evil. But I have seen the beauty of good that it is beautiful, and of the evil that it is ugly, and the nature of him who does wrong, that it is akin to me, not of the same blood or seed, but that it participates in the sname mind and possessing a share of the divine, And so none of them can hurt me. No one can implicate me in ugliness. Nor can I feel angry with my kinsman, nor hate him, For we were born for co-operation, like feet, like hands, like eyelids, like the rows of the upper and lower teeth. To act against one another then is unnatural. To feel anger at someone, to turn your back on him; these are unneeded obstructions.
Book 2 Meditations

Are you a Slave to life or is Life a slave to you ???????

Friedrich Nietzsche: Thus Spoke Zarathustra (excerpt, part 2)
Flee, my friend, into your solitude! I see you deafened with the noise of the great men, and stung all over with the stings of the little ones.

Forest and rock know how to be silent with you. Be like the tree which you love, the broad-branched one -- silently and attentively it overhangs the sea.

Where solitude ends, there begins the market-place; and where the market-place begins, there begins also the noise of the great actors, and the buzzing of the poison-flies.

In the world even the best things are worthless without those who make a side-show of them: these showmen, the people call great men.

Little do the people understand what is great -- that is to say, the creator. But they have a taste for all showmen and actors of great things.

Around the creators of new values revolves the world: -- invisibly it revolves. But around the actors revolve the people and the glory: such is the course of things.

The actor has spirit, but little conscience of the spirit. He always believes in that with which he most strongly inspires belief -- in himself!

Tomorrow he has a new belief, and the day after, one still newer. Like the people, he has quick perceptions and fickle moods.

To defeat -- that means for him: to prove. To drive to frenzy -- that means for him: to convince. And blood is to him the best of all arguments.

A truth which glides only into refined ears, he calls falsehood and nothing. He believes only in gods that make a big noise in the world!

Full of clattering fools is the market-place, -- and the people glory in their great men! These are for them the masters of the hour.

But the hour presses them; so they press you. And also from you they want Yes or No. Alas! would you set your chair between Pro and Con?

Do not be jealous of those unyielding and impatient men, you lover of truth! Never yet did truth cling to the arm of the unyielding.

On account of those abrupt ones, return into your security: only in the market-place is one assailed by Yes? or No?

Slow is the experience of all deep fountains: long have they to wait until they know what has fallen into their depths.

Far away from the market-place and from fame happens all that is great: far away from the market-place and from fame have always dwelt the creators of new values.

Flee, my friend, into your solitude: I see you stung all over by the poisonous flies. Flee to where a rough, strong breeze blows!

Flee into your solitude! you have lived too closely to the small and the pitiful. Flee from their invisible vengeance! For you they have nothing but vengeance.

No longer raise your arm against them! They are innumerable, and it is not your job to be a flyswatter.

Innumerable are the small and pitiful ones; and rain-drops and weeds have been the ruin of many a proud structure.

You are not stone; but already have you become hollow from many drops. You will yet break and burst from the many drops.

I see you exhausted by poisonous flies; I see you bleeding and torn at a hundred spots; and your pride refuses even to be angry.

They would have blood from you in all innocence; blood is what bloodless souls crave -- and therefore they sting in all innocence.

But you, profound one, you suffer too profoundly even from small wounds; and before you have healed, the same poison-worm crawls over your hand.

You are too proud to kill these gluttons. But take care lest it be your fate to suffer all their poisonous injustice!

They buzz around you also with their praise: obtrusiveness is their praise. They want to be close to your skin and your blood.

They flatter you, as one flatters a God or devil; they whimper before you, as before a God or devil; What does it come to! They are flatterers and whimperers, and nothing more.

Often, also, do they show themselves to you as friendly ones. But that has always been the prudence of cowards. Yes! cowards are wise!

They think much about you with their petty souls -- you are always suspect to them! Whatever is much thought about is at last thought suspicious.

They punish you for all your virtues. They pardon you entirely -- for your errors.

Because you are gentle and of honest character, you say: "Guiltless are they for their small existence." But their petty souls think: "Guilty is every great existence."

Even when you are gentle towards them, they still feel themselves despised by you; and they repay your beneficence with secret maleficence.

Your silent pride is always counter to their taste; they rejoice if once you are humble enough to be vain.

What we recognize in a man, we also irritate in him. Therefore be on your guard against the small ones!

In your presence they feel themselves small, and their baseness gleams and glows against you in invisible vengeance.

You did not see how often they became silent when you approached them, and how their energy left them like the smoke of a waning fire?

Yes, my friend, you are the bad conscience of your neighbors, for they are unworthy of you. Therefore they hate you, and would rather suck your blood.

Your neighbors will always be poisonous flies; what is great in you -- that itself must make them more poisonous, and always more fly-like.

Flee, my friend, into your solitude -- and there, where a rough strong breeze blows. It is not your job to be a flyswatter.
Thus spoke Zarathustra.
