Squat! 425X12 ..no belt no wraps

[Deepsquat]

Thats a really impressive squat!! Did you feel like barfing afterwards?

No..but I was laying on the ground huffing and puffing like a frieght train! Didn't check pulse rate but must have been over 180 ...too high for a 40 year old!...
I also was shaking after a few minutes ..and that lasted until I left the gym about 10 minutes later.

good job for an old-timer Keep it up, you'll be like that old guy on world's strongest who always does well

that sounds really impressive, but don't you guys think it is way too risky? when im doing squats i dont dare to do them without all the appropriate gear........and dont take this the wrong way but think about it.

Well, 2 things , this weight of 425 was at least 100 lbs below my wrapped and strapped weight. And my belt broke back in Oct. and I have not replaced it yet(damn thing onlt lasted 20 years....piece of shit )
Also for the last 2 years I have been slowly easing my self away from my belt ....hell I used to use it down at 135 LBS...then for at least 6 month I I just used it at 225 + then for the last year or so only on sets above 365 ...when the belt broke I then went to 405 , and over a period of 8-10 work outs I eased my way up about 10 LBS per ....most I have tried so far is 475x5 -6 ...so as you see it is not something I just jumped into ...and I am still at only at less then 75% of my wrapped max .

I havent used any apparatus, belt, wraps, etc in over 5 years and I'm actually healthier without them, and stronger now too

Thats moving some slag iron like a freight train DEEP SQUAT---helluva job and believe me I know exactly what your talking about with the breathing after---it takes the wind out of your sails. For anyone who thinks you can squat 400 plus lbs for 20 reps and still have small legs I say impossible

Excellent work , I'm still having trouble getting 405 for 10 (but I'm gettin close now!)
