At this point all I have is the metal cross bar. I can link the video where Joey Smith shows you how to set it up. Its about 4 minutes in. When I finish mine, I will post the pictures. Should be sometime next week. I think this will allow me to take my squat into the 900s in single ply.
http://www.facebook.com/l/202e0/www....?v=jum01clXAFc Not sure if that link will work...I had to forward it from another account. All kinds of things are blocked by my server! Last edited by J_Byrd; 04-19-2011 at 10:47 AM. |

I've seen that vid': it's a good explanation.
As for your squat: 900 single ply is utterly ridiculous. LtL

I am going to do mine just a little different, but not much.
The plan is to squat 900 this year. I am not coaching football this year, so that means I will TRAIN year round for the first time ever! Normally during football season I just do some raw stuff playing around. Cant wait to see where I can take this! |

I've seen something similar before, but it's definitely way cool to see someone else doing it

I have the cross beam installed, and set up one side last night. I did not like the feel with the tow straps, just felt like too much stuff there. Going to go with just a chain set up instead.
set up as follows 2 inch sold steel- bolted to frame of squat rack. Has a inch over hang for doing reverse bands. 5,400lbs test J hooks with approx 8lbs of chain. This was actually really simple!

^ By the way, 500 shouldn't look that easy. You're embarrassing us.
Nice work.
