What did you mean how? Like, how did it feel when I did it, or how was I able to?

How did you do it and why are you squatting about the same amount of weight now? Comp max is higher than normal right?

365lbs was for a 1 rep max, I did multiple sets of 2-3 reps with 350lbs today. And it was on ~4 hours of sleep. 365 wasn't at a meet either. My 3rd attempt at my meet back in October was 336lbs for 1.

Brutus_G · 01-28-2007, 01:21 PM

Oh ok i was confused.

fufu · 01-28-2007, 01:47 PM

Awesome squats!

Seanp156 · 01-28-2007, 02:45 PM

Oh fufu, I forget to mention... Today, Pete said you're the perfect image of physical health

. What *exactly* he meant by that I'm not sure.

AndrewSS · 01-28-2007, 02:50 PM

I skip a few weeks reading your journal and come back to find you repping 350 on squats. Very impressive there, Sean.

Malley · 01-28-2007, 09:10 PM

Damn man you'll be squatting 400 in no time. Very nice work!

I think I slightly pulled my hamstring on SLDL, but it's not that bad, just a little pain when it's streched out. Oh well...

That was about 2 years ago... About 5 months after I started working out at all. It is weird to think 155lbs was a struggle to squat for 4-5 reps though.

I kind of want to switch things up a bit and do some high bar close stance olympic squats with 225, no belt for 4 sets of however many reps I can get. You think Lynn will let me do that next week Pete?

That's the plan... There's a meet at the same place I did my first one back in October, coming up on April 21st. It's likely I'll do it depending what else is going on then. I'd like to hit a 400+ squat, 245+ bench, and 450+ deadlift there.
