Well, this is the first day in many to come, I’m sure, where I was beaten out by a powerlifting team member. I knew it would come one day but definitely not on SQUATS! I went for 515 and got it, the second rep was slow and I knew if I went up more the second rep would have been A GRIND. Although ME day is to strain I chickened out, all the while, my wife was telling me to go up. Should have listened as a team member beat me by 20lbs – although it took his soul with an 8 seconds squat just on the concentric – he still beat me none the less. This will be good for me pushing through the rest of this strength block.
