Your endurance at that strength level is phenomenal.
What does using the buffalo bar do for you?
Thanks man. The buffalo bar forces me to use a higher bar position than what I would use with a barbell, which makes the squat harder on me. It’s also just a very sturdy piece of equipment, and can be gentler on my shoulders.

Curious what your max rep 405 squat is.
No idea. I never max outside of comp. I did 12x410 last year

This is the ‘softest’ I’ve felt in forever, eating to grow is always a mind fuck for me. Still I hit the scales at 84kg today and I’m faster than I’ve ever been while heavier, and strength is coming back too.

Has a sneak look back at the before pictures as we are getting very close to the end now. I’m not making comment on who I like for the win, but what I will say is there are going to be some really good before and after transformation pictures this year. Get your popcorn ready.

I’m not sure if it’s the phone obscuring your face, but what’s visible of your head gives me major Jocco Willink vibes
I hear that a LOT. Before Jocko, it was Matt Damon. Also heard John Cena. I think we’re just learning that all white dudes with short hair look the same.

That’s literally what my cousin said once after some rude dude said to her that all Asian females look alike
Getting into the last legs of the challenge here, so I’ll throw out the reminder that when you’ve settled on your “after” pic - whether it’s posted in this thread or in your log - shoot me an @ so I can be sure to see it. I try to be sure to “like” the post as a cue that, ‘yup, saw it, good stuff.’
As it stands, “befores” were posted by @2sides_whufc, @aldebaran, @alex_uk, @antiquity, @b_east, @b4dw0lf, @Bagsy, @Basement_Gainz, @bigdaddi, @boilerman, @BOTSLAYER, @boyce79, @brownbear1968, @Bulldogged, @burien_top_team, @caesium32, @cal_lilly, @chaoshander, @ChickenLittle, @Chieftain, @ChongLordUno, @cisco_red, @coyotegal, @dagill2, @davidtower, @dchris, @doogie, @doomyguy, @DoubleDuce, @throwawayfitness, @EmilyQ, @Fabadab, @Frank_C, @garagerocker13, @heretolog, @jdm135, @jibb, @johnson2133, @kleinhound, @littlesleeper, @loganator, @Lonnie123, @pablo115, @paletwo, @planetcybertron, @raoh1990, @samul, @simo74, @steigs, @T3hPwnisher, @theinneroh, @TrainForPain, @TriednTrue, @trimtabber79, @unicornsandrainbows, @Voxel, @wanna_be, and @willybrokeback.
I know this year, like last, has been much rougher on some than others, so not coming through with an After pic won’t be met with as much ball-busting as previous years. Maybe. Perhaps. But anyhow, if you’re not up for doing an After, just let me know (here or via e-mail if needed - address in my profile) so I can make sure not to harass you for one in the next week or two.
Also seeing a handful of folks that haven’t returned to the forums at all in the last 3-5 months. Still hoping they show up last minute like the football player in Summer School.
Everyone else, straighten your tie and brush your hair, 'cuz we’re pulling in to port.

I’ll post my After, but it will be a shameful affair. Was hoping to lose quite a bit and ended up gaining instead.

Yea, I’m looking almost identical to how I did to start the challenge. Going to try and have a good last week but hey, at least it isn’t regression!
