Vlad from the Coliseum Gym, holding a 1250 squat is training at the North Gym where I train now. Today before I left I saw him do 875 x 3. I'm sure he loves not having a monolift and walking the weight out now.

If you did three singles with the same weight you didn't go heavy

Heck, that was probably his speed day. Is he there consistently or just occassionally? I thought he was down at Westside for awhile. It's not like he'd have a hard time finding a monolift around here if he really needed one.

Nice bench PR BTW. Next time tell the spotter to not touch the bar unless you're completely stapled. 275 stuck on the chest isn't too bad.

Vlad's been there consistently the last 2 weeks, at least. And it was actually 915-935... Someone told me 875, but he had 3 100lbs plates, and 3 45lbs plates per side, and then he may have had a 5 or 10 on each as well. I find it hard to believe he trusts those bars with that much weight on them.
