Race to 405lb Squat

Thanks and a little wobbly up too lol

If your bracing is decent, try pushing out of the hole from the outsides of your feet, rather than your heels/toes, while concentrating on pushing your knees outward. <<< Doing that will prevent wobbly knees.

I stopped at 365 with a little more in the tank few weeks ago. Haven't really squatted much since last March so this will help set an obtainable goal.

Well I hit 455 on squat over the weekend. Someone called and ended my video about half way up. It was all I had in me. So that put me over my first goal of a 1200 total with 1220. 455 squat and deadlift and 315 bench

Almost 2yrs to the day I last attempted 405 squat. Although this does not count as I was using wraps I think it still merits a post lol...

Wouldnt say I have bad knees, for me its a confidence issue, I get in my head too much on squats. Still debating though on switching to raw plus wraps for the meet

Bracing the core really fixed that for me, took a coach though
