I took the first PB-ish looking numbers of the original thread to come up with opening numbers.
And now shut up and squat! (and post your results)

May as well get in on this even though I only back squat for fun and hypertrophy at the moment. Put me down for 170.

You´ll never see me coming, confident that I should be able to do it on the next 1rm test day or in the IPF RAW national cup.

Oh well, I just did my first squat ever today, so I'll be doing 180 in a couple of weeks, for sure. :P

I f***** loved it, by the way.
