315x2 barley missed 3 PR, I would have had more but it was my first time with 315 and things just went a little wrong. Also adding 40lbs to my warm up set made me more tired apparently.

You think it might be time to get into some groove briefs or something with the Squat Poundages you’re handling? Maybe when you make your return to Squatting and Deadlifting they’ll help out with the pain.

I thought about that.
If I get in brief’s Il have to compete with guys wearing the best breifs’ suits’ wraps, in monolifts etc. I dont want to even mess with weights in the 1000lb range when I would only be able to hit 700ish in wraps and a belt.
I dont really miss squats or deadlifts right now, my upper body strength is going up. Im growing, looking bigger, and I have no pain. So Im not in a rush to do any leg or lower back work at the moment.

Understood, but I think there’s a difference between the Inzer $30 groove briefs and the ultra-expensive Metal Ace Briefs that are essentially a double ply squat suit without straps. I’m sure you know your body well enough by now to make the best decision for yourself though.

Thanks Im weighing 325 heres some vids from yesterday
That was supposed to be shoulderpress, but looking at the video its just a high incline with no range of motion. Anyway from now on Il just call those high inclines.

meganewb u say u dont want briefs cuz all the gear, yet u have wrist and elbwo wraps which just help with protecting u, same with briefs no? besides u dont have to wear them ina comp
can suck it up for one day?
How much you weighing now, up to 350 yet? Strong as always. Don’t listen to the other guys about getting right back into heavy squatting, no point if you might hurt yourself. You don’t want to be a cripple before your 20. And well getting your upper body huge, you will look bigger anyways.
And also bignate, those things DO NOT help in bench press only a belt maybe and then a shirt. Briefs could add a ton of weight and he is not interested in going into gear, getting briefs, then going multi ply ext ext.

if you look at his youtube profile he recently squated 600+ on a smith machine for 2 reps and leg pressed 1500+ for reps so he is training legs
