I wish that heavy squats were an option for me anymore. Hell. Id be happy to just feel a 500lb squat at this point.

a young man sho lifts for the "Strength Guild" gym, just squatted and DL'd 900+ in the same meet. I guess only a handful have done that.

"Here are the two lifts that put Bryan Kenneth Hartsel in the books as one of the few people to ever squat and deadlift 900lbs plus in the same meet. 903 on both. Squat in just sleeves, deadlift beltless".

Amazing. (Coach Phil stevens posted the vids on facebook group "Iron Radio Listeners" in case it is an open group and can be seen by anyone w/ a FB account. (I think, I dont use FB really so I may be wrong).

Do it. Just go in small increments.

I low bar squat with a pretty narrow stance about shoulder width. Kind of awkward but I better utilize the stretch reflex that way. Gotta loosen up my hips and incrementally go wider.

Just watched the video all the way through. Truly impressive stuff. All four are monsters, but funny to see the level and casual intensity Marcus is at.
