Just saw your last two pictures…OMG.
Awesome on the bench PR! I’ve never been a bencher (MAJOR UNDERSTATEMENT), but the most I ever did with a pause was 100 lb. You have the potential to do far more than that 103.
And quite the pics! I look a bit stringy compared to you! Okay, more than a bit.
Hara you sweet talker you. I never was into tattoos but have grown to really like them.
I think if your gonna do it, DO IT, sleeve etc.
JAMES Geeze sounds really “vain” when YOU say it, but it is what it is!! I have trouble
with setting goals, so lets just say YES I would like to get stronger in 2012!
KSNAP
HEY GIRL!! IM missing you around here 
HEAL UP QUICKLY
OH SHUT UP on the stringy, EAT SOME FOOD, no seriously, if you meet up with my friend, I gave permission to have a few oldie but goodie pics shared :0
ON the bench PR- THANKS!!
Up, thanks for noticing me.
Still some pains, abs are still restructuring.
You… look amazing.
SQUATS
warm up
45/65/5 75/3 85/3 95/1 105/1 125 2x1 135/1 145 3x1 155 fail 145 fail
well the 145…the first i didnt hit depth, and i stood there contemplating going down again, but didnt.
the 2nd i was sure if i hit parallel, went for a 3rd, didnt rest much, and almost got stuck but i hung with it, felt like time stopped.
I was suggested a weight next, but didnt listen, I was feeling so confident Id get the 155 at depth 
but i failed, then i was thinking ?? did i even get a PR with that 145? do it again to be sure. NOT lol
I used the band to git my knees, so i had a little more going on in my head, but Im thinking the 145 counted?
as long as you dont go back down? anyway, I think I got a PR+10 IF i hit depth.
I felt so strong and wanted it so bad. I guess I should feel good knowing im hitting lower and knees were better. That bigger squat is gonna be mine!
EDIT watched vids AGAIN, it looks like i hit parallel, ugh I WANT MORE, hehe
Just catching up here…your taking my breath away as usual…you look FantASStic 
Happy new YEAR!!
I would say your first was good but borderline depth. The good news is your form is perfect. Maybe sit back a little more and pull our elbows forwarrd to keep your chest high but that is really nit picking. I really liked you 3rd attempt those grinders are my the best!
You are doing great work in here UP!
Don’t sweat your form on the squats (it is solid)…the higher weights are messing with your head. YOU WILL hit that 155 for depth sooner than you think!
Take a step backwards with lighter weight so you can take two steps forward. I’m sure whoever is doing your programming will guide you this way. Lastly, when you approach the bar don’t think of it as 155lbs, think of it as just 10 lbs more than you just did or just two 5lb plates. Sounds funny but it works for me.
Happy New Year

Yea, that grinder was something else, i wasnt givin up!!
I think you broke parallel on the 3rd - 145.
You’ll hit the 155 in less then 2 weeks time.

ON form: I didnt think i would “fix” it in one sesh. I wasnt squatting for depth to begin with.
Id say ill have it in the next few though.
As far as weight, not meant to sound cocky… but the weight amount Does NOT MESS with me.
I wouldnt have thought i could handle another 10
I just need my fearlessness to equal my strength and tech.
happy new Year to you Hara

It was close if I didnt, need the Snap police in here
I agree, on getting that 155, however I dont go for PRs that often, so Ill be grinding out
some lower weight again, which will let me dial in my depth.
Gotta love rep work

At least I’m good for something: armchair coaching with no credentials.
From USAPL competition standards, you need another inch. Some feds are more lax. So close and you handle the weight with such ease that it’s just a matter of time. And 155 is my best ever raw squat! I am so impressed with how long you stayed with that one squat. Incredible perseverance. Really fun to watch how far you’ve come so damn fast.
Have to figure out how I can meet up with your friend since I can’t drive!
Snap hmm on inch, heres some stills. First is old 135 and the ones from yesterday 135/145
So cool to see this. my technique IS getting better, few more tweaks. I wont stop till Ive got it!
last time with the 135
135 yesterday
sorry side by side would be nice~~~
145
“armchair coaching with no credentials”? waves both hands, jumps up and down violently…makes Me!, Me! sounds…
Watching those videos, I’m 100% certain you don’t lack balls. Oh, wait.
Is Superman around to comment on your vids? And speaking of going for 155, wasn’t Clark always trying (unsuccessfully) to keep Lois from rushing into bad situations?
WHEW, ok good, I thought you were heading into the I couldnt do something post…cause whatever you do, dont ever imply I cant do “x” cause it will push me into going for “z”
I have been told I must have a nut sack ----> at the time it was not said as a compliment, ill leave it at that.
Happy New Year to all that lurk and post in my log!!
Nice work on those squats!! Love the fight! Tooth and nail, I tell ya. Great work!
Happy New Year to you Up! 2012 is going to be a great year. Grip and rip, girl! smack
