Mike Rinderle Posted November 15, 2011 Share Posted November 15, 2011 I know this isn't an earth shattering achievement, but I was pretty happy with it as an old out of shape guy. Goal was to do 225 ( just under my bodyweight) X 44 (my age Thursday) in under 10 minutes. Fairly sure I saw a light at the end of the tunnel there on that last rep. My grip, posterior chain, and lungs were all giving out on rep 44. 45 would not have gone up. DO, dead stop, no belt, 1" deficit (due to size of my plates), stiff York squat bar: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
