Exactly!

I’m to pretty to have to think about these things.[/quote]

Yes…yes you are…lol.

Great work, Joe. And I thought the 16 was a typo as well. Dips are outstanding. Bench is looking solid. Deads are moving. Everything is looking good.

Thanks Strick, I’m just trying to bump my numbers as muh as possible by nationals.

At the beginning of the vid, it looked like something else’s placement was off as well, til you righted it. Heh. Not that I am looking for these kinda things, but, it was just right there.

I always try to make sure of my placement before hitting record.

Joe, if that 285 had been 1000+, I would’ve passed it. Just sayin’.

Greats squats Joe…my knee hurts from watching the guy next to you. How are you liking the Zerchers? They look like a bitch.

Thanks everyone, sorry about the “adjustments”.

Joe-

MiR is a company that makes weight vests I believe they have one that goes up to 200lbs…

Joe, squats are looking good. Proper depth is very much of a mystery to me. On higher weights I still pretty much need to have a box in order to be sure.

Squats have been my worst lift for so long I think I’m very leary of them going up.

Just don’t let it happen again. Or we’ll have to consider throwing you outta the compound.
