I will stick to regular squats and suck it up. I'm angry now. I want 315 so bad I can almost taste it. I was reading some articles on Westside barbell's site. NONE of the articles mention "How to bench 300lbs". All those dudes are doing 400, 500, and 600lb benches and that's just the bottom of the pack.
Has anyone here ever purchased their workout videos or done the bands? I am getting so addicted now and I want to keep pushing myself as much as I can.
Pretty sure the WSB guys lay out how to scale back the weight to fit your needs. Plus a lot of it is percentage base so now that you know your max you can just use the percentages given to come up with weights.

Wow, you did that in 7 weeks... pretty impressive, I just hope I can balance out my muscles so that I'm not strange, I mean I started a week ago and of as right now the heaviest weights I've done are.
5x105 Squat, 5x105 Bench, 5x65 Military Press, 5x105 Deadlift, 5x85 Barbell Rows. I think I'm pretty unbalanced as a normal person I think would be
Deadlift>Squat>Bench>Rows>Press.
not Bench=Squat=Deadlift>Rows>Press.
Well good progress and I hope I make simular.

Great Job! Heavy deads will help going forward, plus you will like the thick look that only comes from heavy deads (who here would not want a back like Kaz?). The smith machine can be a great workout tool as it often frees up the power rack.
Cardio does not by its self kill strength. Increasing strength demands a lot from the body in the form of stress and nutrients, so does increasing endurance. If you had cut back the cardio even more you probably could have added another 1-5lbs, but it may not have been worth it to you.

more progress than I honestly thought you would make!! congrats!! whenI read that before your layoff you hit 225 as pb for a couple reps I thought "no fuckin way!!" but you came pretty damn close actually!! but the further you push your maxes those 10-20lbs start meaning alot more and getting alot heavier!! good job on your progress bro!!
