Eric Spoto set to attempt to beat the world raw bench press record on nov.3.. the record is 715lbs

honest question: are half squats stopping before u reach 90degrees(knees bent at 90degrees)?
The reason I ask is my physiotherapist said that squats should not be done past 90degrees.

NVM: just read your response on previous page lol

must watch, for anyone looking for the "best" protein shake :derp:

i bought the same protein as him and all i can say that im impressed as long as pricing and quality goes :notbad:

If you have a little blender make a shake. Greek yogurt + frozen fruit + milk + protein and natural peanut butter.

unless you blew out your knee or something, hes just perpetuating a myth

jc95, just saw ur 365 squat for reps video. ur a beast man, don't even know how you squat so much

there's a ton of debate regarding both the chest and squat comment. It's like religion. You aren't going to convince one of the other.

That is a good article. Most people think that 90 degrees means the thigh being parallel to the ground. But because everyone's body is different (flexibility and stature), you should be looking more at the actual knee joint being parallel.

Can't wait for that meet! I think it's gonna be streamed live.

There'll probably be more world records broken that day than just the bench record.

I love how everyone always says to not go low on squats or go low and this and that
From day one always went low and still do

I believe this has been mentioned in this thread before. A guy from reddit measured the actual protein content of a number of different brands that make whey powder. Although not completely accurate, it does go to show that not all protein supplements are created equally.

DL 315 today at 122lb bw. I know I'm light as fuck, really low bf% and still have chicken legs..I'm working on that. Most people guess that I weight about 140 but I'm even lighter than I look.

Wow, very nice.


now i feel like crap....

holy shit 122
how tall are you
very nice job tho

I'm about 5'4". There's really not much fat on my body at all though..did skinfold measurements in a kines class and I'm pretty sure my bf% made the girl I was partnered with feel like shit..

:fuckthatshit::fuckthatshit::fuckthatshit:

Had a solid chest work out today. Broke my old record of 205x8 on the flat bench, and hit an extra two reps.
For incline, finally using 81lb DBs (fat grip) for working sets of 5-7 now.

Extremely satisfied with my progress lately, with exception to my squats. Been stuck at the same weights for two months now..

wish my delt pumps would stay forever :okay:

jc, is that you or your buddy squatting the 365? If that's you, good job man
