    I've touched 405 with it and I've moved my grip and jacked the shirt down. This past week was on me in that I sucked on that day and just couldn't get anything really going.

    3/3

    Squat

    Worked up to 565x1 (briefs)
    605x1 (suit)
    655x1 (suit)

    Ab Wheel
    BWx10x4

    Tried out the Metal Jack briefs today and they are freaking incredible. They are without a doubt the most comfortable brief that I've ever used that still supplied support. These not only provided great hip support, but I felt like I was shot out of a damn cannon. There is some incredible tightness with the suit on top, but I will adjust to that and I need to lose about 10 pounds to make weight.

    Briefs solo was tight, but bearable. It was when I added my Ace suit on top of it that I was really uncomfortable. With just the briefs, I was able to walk around normally, but I looked ridiculous trying to walk once I added the suit. I love the support of the Ace, but hate the tiny ass leg openings that they have.

    yeah when I combo'd briefs and jack suit my leg went numb in about 10 minutes. Metal tends to constrict the quads/thighs. Inzer seems to focus more on supporting the glutes. regardless good squating man

    Quick updates:

    1st and 2nd attempts for squat and deadlifts are solid (601/650 and 545/575, respectively). Slightly adjusted my shirt and was much more stable and smoother on Friday and took 455 to a 1-board cleanly. It wasn't super fast, but the bar moved at a good pace.

    April 13th.

    I touched and pressed 405 successfully last night and it was really smooth. My other openers and second attempts are solid. As long as I hit those 5 lifts, I'll be happy. The goal is mainly to total and play this one conservatively before really going for it on the next one.

    Sounds like its all coming together! I think this is going to be a good meet for you. I like the idea of playing this one conservative. Get good openers and 2nd's in, then test yourself on the thirds man! No need to be overly stressful chasing a total just yet. Although saying that I have no doubt you'll put some impressive numbers on the board!

    At over 1700 total, you have come so far over this past year. The cool thing is, you've only just begun.
