race to 500lbs/227.5kg raw squat

Postby JP » Mon Feb 22, 2010 2:56 pm

SPUG!!!

You beat me to 600lbs/272.5kg deadlift (who wouldnt though...).

Now it is time to seek revenge.

After couple ok sessions on a lift it is customary to take a hit from the crack pipe and make wild predictions of progress.

And now i started smelling the sweet smell of 227.5kg squat...

Anyone else?

Hmmmm might be in for this.

Give me an idea of your rate of progress. When did you squat 220kg?
