Now also good at pullups? :upsidedwn

Really impressive chinning for a big guy!

Thanks, Christoph. Could always be a little better at pull ups :). Current bw is ~290. One training cycle 4 or 5 years ago I did a triple with 135lbs at 250bw; uh.

Matt- Next time, I'll do a set of headbangers just for you.

This was actually fairly easy; I would have kept going but I still had to squat and had meet my goal for the cycle. Have to set a new goal now...?

SSB Squat:

walk out / hands on handles / no belt / narrower stance

5 x 7 x 490

I have to adjust my numbers -- I barely got through this and it's only going to get more difficult. The original numbers were supposed to be for back squat.

Matt and Collin- Thanks, guys. Breaking the WR is a long-term goal. For now, I was thinking more of a short-term goal...

Kelly / Cannon / Christoph- thanks for the compliments, I appreciate it.

There was a possibility that I would do a strongman comp. in January but I don't think it's going to happen anymore. I will probably aim for a raw powerlifting meet in the next few months. Right now my plan is to get my squat to go up, and then I focus more towards the deadlift.
