It's a double edged sword for me now as posterior chain strength carries over to both equipped squatting and raw or equipped pulling.

If you meant something else, please explain

LtL

Yep, that's what I was asking.

You never cheat out on hard work tho Big Al

[J_Byrd]

You have a much bigger squat in you....it is coming, no doubt about that!

[Kuytrider]

670kg is an enviable total and you're only on the road to something even greater

[LtL]

Thanks guys. Gonna go big and equipped on Monday again for max squat but working doubles for technique. If I can sit back more and stop the suit from bullying me forwards, I definitely have more in me

Today is dynamic effort bench though. Week 3 of speed wave with slingshot, some wide grip lockout work and a lot of assistance volume. Good times.

FIN

Good session today. As per Jay Fry's suggestion in the quite I posted I used a wider grip for lockout work today and they were much more tricep focused. Could have gone a bit higher but slowly does it. JMs were ok but still working on form. Used high reps for incline work as it hurts my shoulder. Shoulder was ok but a bit of elbow pain on the latter reps. Nothing a bit of ice won't fix. Pulldowns and curls were good. Today I got better. Tomorrow night is Max Effort Squat/DL and I will be suiting up for some doubles. First though is the football. With an Italian wife, this could get ugly. Come on England!

This is recurring theme in here. Awesome pressing Big Al. Is it alot of work setting up the bands?

I'm in the same boat with the Italian wife, and me being, well, have British. It's a good thing Italy doesn't have a hockey team or civil war would break out.

You'll have to tell me more about your icing protocol. We've not discussed it yet, and may need to pull it out from time to time on my elbows.
