Box Squats

[Jagermeister]

Do any of you guys wear squat suits with the staps down, when you do box squats?







Jager

 

[Screwball]

Yes, I started about a month ago. My form is different in the suit but I'm adjusting.

 

[benchmonster]

yes, I always do, if I don't my hips hurt like a bastard.

Screwball, check your e-mail.

[Jagermeister]

You guys just wear them on Dynamic Days?

and you still gain strength?

 

[benchmonster]

I wear them both days and get stronger.

i dont wear my squat suit until contest prep usually (then again ive only had a squat suit for 6 weeks)

i dont wear a squat suit but i'm thinking of buying groove briefs for this. when i box squat my crotch/hips hurt like someone beat them then next day.

 

[Arioch]

I don't, but that is because I cannot stand that shit. It is the worst part about a meet, IMO. Not looking forward to putting it on again, but, nevertheless, I will.

 

[spatts]

When's your next comp, Arioch?

...and I have yet to use lifting gear.

 

[Arioch]

December. I believe you are familiar with the one I am talking about.

 

[spatts]

NO WAY! Did I already know that?

WOOHOO!!!!

 

[Arioch]

Yes. Whole family will be lifting. First time that has ever happened. I will probably be spastic by then.

 

[spatts]

What weight class is the Mrs. in?

It will be awesome to meet all of you!

 

[Arioch]

She normally lifts in the 105's, but has weighed in at 103 and 102 at her last two meets. So she has the bright idea of lifting in the 97's. 97 pounds is not a weight class, it is a side dish. She has her heart set on a 2x bodyweight bench.

She did push 165 without a shirt the other day.

 

[spatts]

That's awesome. I thought she looked like she might be a lil bit of a thing, in terms of height and weight. Goodness knows she's packed.

I had no idea you were going to be there....it's going to be awesome having all the people I find so supportive around.

...sorry to intrude jager.

I had no idea you were going to be there....it's going to be awesome having all the people I find so supportive around.

I told you he was going to be there a couple weeks ago. I agree, Arioch it will be great to meet you guys. Looking forward to it.

 

[spatts]

Nuh-uh!

 

[Hannibal]

Nuh-uh!

uh-huh...I was part of that "blah blah blah" background noise that I am always doing.

 

[Arioch]

Perhaps your posing distracted her.

 

[Hannibal]

Perhaps your posing distracted her.

I need to get my email account checked out...apparently I missed the EliteNewsletter about "beating Hannibal to a bloody pulp with the bodybuilder stick".

If I were to "pose" I doubt if it would be distracting...more like DISTURBING!

 

[TheProject]

Perhaps your posing distracted her.

nah, I doubt it was the posing. I think it was just the feral screams from his good mornings on Monday.

 

[Screwball]

I'm working on my "Most Muscular" pose but I can't seem to get the scowl down right. Should I stick the tongue out or grit the teeth together? Any opinions are appreciated.

 

[spatts]

Damn today was a good day. Hannibal played with sidewalk chalk while I BITCH SLAPPED 225 pound speed deads. NO shoulder pain with squats anymore AT ALL.

 

[Arioch]

This is very good news.

Now be very careful between now and December.
