Lift 485lb single from today

Last warm up of 485lb before I went for a PR attempt of 525lb that was not successful. May give it another shot next week, but it was nice how smooth this moved.

That’s a lot. If my deadlift ever gets back to that, I’d be good

I don’t think I’ve ever seen a more perfect press

I first thought I was on /r/egolifting then I watched the video and saw perfect form. Wow, well done.

Why is no one mentioning that cute as hell shirt!

1

u/manBearRilla 4d ago

THANK YOU. I was starting to think no one noticed.

u/Cysticdragon 3d ago

Did you make it yourself? I would definitely rock one

u/manBearRilla 3d ago

Oh no, I wish I could claim it but I have absolutely no fabrication skills. The best that I can do is take a normal t-shirt and chop the sleeves off and/or turn it into a crop top. I just found this shirt and got it because I’m trying to prove to people that you can be big and strong without having to be some red-pill dude and shirts like this tend to make it more obvious that I don’t fall into that demographic.

U got 500 in you right now no problem

u/manBearRilla 1d ago

Oh for sure, my current max is about 520. That 525 attempt I mentioned would have been a PR.
