Max squat is 375 ass to ground

I used to use it as my main excercise every third leg workout, with front squats to support it.

The other two times would be squats and straight leg dl's as my main excercises, with the sled for accessory movement.

That's what I'm saying, The bar flexes easily at that 315 so at 740, I can see a permanent bend happening. When I dead lift at 405 I could feel the bar flexing. That was back in HS though I don't dead lift anymore either.

It flexes, not a permanent bend.

And im not joking. I've been in this state numerous times.
But i was also squatting over 500 for sets.
You pussies.

You also have the frame to hold it.

I'm almost at the 405 mark (my goal), but start to go higher and something will give out.

Nah just lifting the bar off the rack makes it flex.

I hate squatting so much...I know it's important but I just hate the movement and the way I can't move for two days afterward. The fact that I can't seem to make any real gains doesn't help.

I honestly havent counted.

740 DL, 585 was my best squat for one, and 480 was my best bench for 1 rep.

1805lbs. Was still a ways away.

If I could throw in my 360*1 military press, i'd be over! lol.

Threads like this make me want to be a pin cushion again, sooooooo badly!
