TrapHouse, why is there not enough weight on the bar??

[Traphouse86]

Tuesday: Lower Body

Box squats:
barx2x10
135x5
185x3
225x3
275x3
315x3
added powerpant brief
365x3
405x3 rep PR
added leviathan
straps down
455x3 no touch
straps up
500x2 no touch
570x1 not even an inch from touching but still no touch
tried again but got a pain in my left shoulder so I shut it down

I feel like I have so much potential , just need to get use to the heavy weight on my back and get use to feeling the weight with the thick straps.

Sounds like there's a lot more in that squat. Keep pushing hard.

570 is damn good. How hard was the lift? You think you have more in you?

It felt pretty good , just had trouble feeling the weight on my back due to the thick straps so kind of got out of groove but was still smooth. I think I'm gonna use reverse bands that way I can get use to having that much weight on my back. But btb I believe with some practice and pure will I can have a 650+ geared squat by December.

Nice. Reverse bands should be a quality addition.

Thursday: MM geared Bench

Flat bench: POR-grip

barx20
135x10
185x5
225x5
275x3
295x1
325x1 PR

Was going to put on a tighter denim shirt here but only had muscleg with me so decided to just use the loose one I had
added dbl denim: comp-grip
365x3 no touch
405x2 same
435x1 solid rep , touched
470x1 loose denim PR

Floor Press lockouts: comp grip
135x5
225x5
315x3
365x5
405x3
460x0 almost had it, get it next time
425x2

Although I wanted to get into the tighter denim , it still hit a shirted PR so still was a good session along with another POR raw PR.
