450-475-500 for a 35lb meet PR
I didn’t set my back as well as I could have on 500, but i’ll take it.

Yea, your hips did shoot up a bit there, but good lifts man! 500 is no joke.

Okay, yeah, but it was a near max attempt, something usually gives. You got a bit out of your groove but like a fucking pro you adapted and pulled through. Brilliant lift. Congratulations.
Nice lifts Cors!
Nice lifts Cors!
Hit 210 kg sumo after my regular squat training last week, which ties my conventional PR. Had another few kilo left in me. I think sumo is what’s going to take me over the top and will devote the next mesocycle to training this. Hopefully I’ll be up over 227.5 kg/500 lbs in the next couple of months.
Hit a 220 kg/484 lbs sumo this morning following a crappy squat session. I then failed at 227.5 kg/500 lbs. Couldn’t break it off the floor.
I think sumo’s the way to go. Gonna try to hit that elusive 500 lbs barrier in the next four weeks.

Look at you go.
Just hit 400 a few weeks ago, this is a good goal now!
Getting close! My coaches had me switch to sumo a few months ago. Am hoping to be pulling 500 + by this time next year.
Here’s 457 on Saturday at the USAPL Battle of the Border in NC.
210 kg/460 lbs relatively easily. I think I might hit 227.5 kg/500 lbs at my meet in may.
Really ugly but got it! 495 down, only 15 more pounds to the RPS record! 
Video?
I’m in. I’ve got a 430 sumo DL right now and a 390 conventional. 5/3/1 has been working wonders for the past 16 months and I assume it’ll keep going so in about 7 months I should be where I want to be!
I didn’t realize it, but 495 lbs are 225 kg. I been shooting for the big 500 mark all along. Might try for 225 kg next week or the week after and will report back; I’ve hit 220 kg in training the last two weeks.
Hit it this past Tuesday!
Nice one! Looked easy.
