Broke my personal best squating today
« on: March 28, 2010, 12:22:03 PM »
For the very first time (and I would have never thought I would do that) 308lbs (6 20kg plates), no help and ass to the grass no knee straps.

As my bech personal best a few days ago, it was far from being pretty and I really struggled, but I got it up by myself.
Had to ask somebody to spot me of course and the guy was douchebag I told him that I have never even tried that weight and he just stood back so I wonder how far I could have gone If I wouldn;t have to worry.

A year ago I was unable to squat 220lbs for more then 4 reps (I have always trained squats all the way down) now I rep 10 with 220lbs easy.

Shows you again if you put your mind to it :)

I think benching wise I have reached my personal best so far and I may have to use a good training program to increase and reach my ultimate goal which is 6 wheels, squating however I think I could even go a little further.

"Six wheels" refers to six plates per side to most folks, fyi.  Nobody calls 135 "two wheels".

No actually you just wanted people to think you squat "six wheels".

Take it to the training board.  I'm sure you and this guy will get along very well...

u only count the plates on one side of the bar- hence three wheels. Thats the convention.

When the board talks shit about you, it makes you break personal records.

Keine Ahnung - hab lang braucht bis ich die Kniebeugen gscheit hinbekommen hab ~ so 6 Monat. Bin ziemlich pingelig und ein wenig fehlt mir die Flexibilität.
Hab im Center(McFick im 12ten) bis jetz noch nie jemanden gscheit Kniebeugen machen sehn...
Beine zam, viel Gwicht, a bissl nach unten.... wenn überhaupt.
Trainierst noch immer in der Firma?

^^This. 

Congrats on the lift, though. 

I went from 225 (don't laugh) to 435 last year, so I know you've got more in you for 2010. ;)
