About a year ago I did a set of 50 squats at BW. I was wrecked for a good 2 weeks. I won't be doing that again... ever.

Damn, that's impressive!

I just realized that guy's bench is almost certainly more than my total. Now that's a little depressing.

I think you misread my post. I said squat, not bench. Hitting that on bench is a long, long, long way off.

Wow. Just realized my year-end goal is to squat half of that for 1 rep!

Or the guy with the camera ; )

Nice, man. Yo'll hit 1200 in no time.

Looks like fun. Although, I don't think it would be quite the same if I tried it. Somehow 0 to 225 in 60...

Nice, Sking. You flew through those ten.

Good work, Jonathan. Man, 500# after only a year and a half would be impressive!

Awesome, man. Just curiously, how long did that take you? Right now my 5RM is about 215, maybe a little more, so I definitely have a ways to go.

Congrats, Mwhities. Three plates is awesome. Hopefully I'll be there within the next 12 months or so.

Nah. Make it purple to match the belt.

1.5xBW press here I come!

Yes, but how MUCH are you eating?

You have 30ish lbs on me yet my lifts are all equal to or slightly greater than yours (and steadily climbing). I've only been on SS for 1.5 months after losing 15...

By the way, thanks to everyone for all the advice. I want to learn all I can about training, programming, etc (and I realize that I have a LONG way to go) so I really appreciate getting input from...

Thanks. Yeah, it's definitely tough getting in here (took me 2 tries). Don't worry I won't be one of the bitter grads; I love it here. There is definitely some silly B.S. that goes on, but as long as...
