Finally able to complete all back squat sets at 285lbs. Felt pretty good. Kinda looking forward to 290lbs tomorrow. 230lbs bench - backing off increases to 2.5lbs instead of 5lbs going forward. 185lbs BB row - dropping increases to 2.5lbs BW+52.5lbs dips 95lb LTE's
Got a new belt after blowing out my old one on squats last week. That helped. Also, I was lifting in Chuck Taylors but switched to Powerlift2. Felt way more solid and I'm sore so I'm working stuff differently.
Congrats on the goal! It's always fun to hit a new high.
I was surprised at what a change in shoes can do for the lifts. They are available for a reason.
It's been so long since I've lifted with a belt, I'm not sure I could again. Then again, I'm fat enough I'd probably blow one out just bending over.
