Choosing gear....

[Cuthbert]

It's time for me to start thinking about buying some PL gear, at least a squat suit and bench shirt.

I have absolutely no idea what to get... WAY too many options out there. I've benched with an Inzer Extra high performance hd blast, and got ~40lbs out of it... so I have some ideas there.

I guess I just would like some recommendations. If it's worht anything, heres lifts from my last meet in may:

weighed 184

squat 450 (loose z suit + wraps)
bench 275 (have done 315 shirted)
dead 475 belt only

If theres anything I should stay away from due to strength levels, please let me know... otherwise let the info flow, please.

thanks

Cuthbert

First you have to decide on what federation that you are going to lift in. Some have different rules as far as allowable equipment goes.

My mistake... APA.. thanks Hannibal

Damn , with the APA they allow 2 ply but only poly I think. Either way I would recommed Titan. the Fury shirt and the Boss suit ( which is 2 ply) or the Dual Quad (single ply) for poly I really
love Titan and they are very well priced.

I think APA allows denim. If they do I would get a open back double denim shirt and a doulbe poly frantz squat suit.

They do allow denim, one of my training partner uses one... and the open back is tempting. He also had some good things to say about the Titan boss suit.
