If your goal is not to move big weight then why the Christmas day 405? Even 3 plates is too much for you to squat correctly. What you say applies if the weight is reduced not if you are moving weights that make you tremble with terrible form.

BigRo Obviously I have considered sleeves give the knees more "protection" when squatting. But my goal isn't really to squat for big legs or weight. I mean yes, I do think they are finally starting to grow and I can squat more but the goal is to strengthen the knees for active sports and twisting motions aka snowboarding/wrestling kid is getting bigger and pulling me onto the mats more. I think no sleeves will build up the strength of the connective tissue around the knees more. I need to do both for 12 more years. It will also prevent me from trying to go too heavy and blowing out a knee. Same with the belt. As you know I have already had a hernia repair and mesh implant for a umbilical hernia I still have a hiatal hernia. I think no belt and allowing some tension on the repair it will strengthen it more. But yes Xmas morning we may go sleeves we may even add more weight for good measure, try and get best angle to show depth as I know everyone is going to bitch and moan about some perceived issue.

"Also, apologies to anyone who said I smelled bad I was throwing up bile all day in the parking lot due to my Crohn's disease mixed with a hiatal hernia. I was in a lot of digestive pain that day."



The Trifecta in one sentence:

Ha ha ha ha ha. For someone who didn’t Car loan or take any diuretics. It seems odd that you would throw up bile ?

I’m guessing half truth Hankins is leaving out the drug cocktail he took before pre-judging

On a positive note? At least it wasn’t a gallon of black stuff. That is usually on Thanksgiving.



What is the board thinking about Thanksgiving dinner? I’m guessing he will be eating dinner alone. My guess is some sort of microwave will slop. Emily will not be home. I guarantee you that much.

SC I believe you also have a legal career.

Another thing Hankins could not match you on let alone beat you at.

This thread is about JoSwift taking care of himself.

Get back on track, people!
