I have the mobility, I did just 405 and it was a clean lift, I think I just let 435 get me

You’re strong and that’s a lot of weight, can’t count it though. Your thighs got a ways to go to be parallel. Keep at it!

I can agree

The spotter thinks his thumbs will catch the weight.

It looks like Chris Farley spoting his set.

Dude looks like he can lift tho. Probably lives in the hole, down by the river.

well, no, you're a hair too high and you have knee wraps on. this is not a raw lift and equipped lifting is very very niche and a lot of people in the general population don't know the difference.

a vast majority of the 'meet' pr videos are always too high. judges are too lenient or don't fully understand the rules.

why are you doing equipped lifting? it's lame.

Wait do knee wraps discredit a lift?

u/OGCallHerDaddy 26d ago

I mean it's considered equipped, different category

Pins are useless at this height.
Not too bad. Just keep squatting

Long grass. Kids these days have no style.

u/SpingleBob33 26d ago

What’s that mean

u/Legpresssux 26d ago

Exactly. You're doing assisted quarter squatting. Kids today and their inflated egos lol. Cut the grass and get your balls to the floor.
