It got to just under my knees. I guess my rack pulls need to be lower. Like I said, I can't really bitch, since this is the first time in a year and a half that Ive tried anything conventional. I'm sticking with it though.

It's been like 3 week since I've gotten squat in due to work. It was nice. Next week is going to be heavy triple week, so we will see how it goes. I'm also thinking of committing to a meet May 4. just gotta hash out some details with he boss lady. I'm gonna hit some light bench on Monday, and get some serious pulling in on Wednesday.

Good. I haven't had too many squat issues lately. My adductors, and abductors are screwed though.

I am completely dejected at this point. It's my first time in a suit, and it was a motherfucker... Breathing was hard, getting to the bar was even harder. It felt like someone was trying to cut my legs off with a rope. I'm all bruised up on my upper thighs. Having said that, after drowning my sorrow with a king size milky way bar, I need to quit being a pussy, and fucking do it. All he pain aside. Adam,and Brian, both pull in the same suit, and they get the bar and pull it. I just need to nut up next week and grip it and rip it, as John Daly used to say.

Keep pushing man it'll get better.

I haven't taken a heavy squat in a long while. Today was the day. It all felt good, but I could tell its been a while since I've hit serious weight. My best is a 455 squat. I believe I could go bigger at this point, but I won't push it till after this meet. Depending on how Wednesday goes, I my have to circle one less item on my entry. I'm doing bench regardless, but if pulling in a suit continues to be full of suck, I won't do it.

[BendtheBar]

Keep those squats rolling.
