All the best for your goals, Azmat!
Shhh….my common sense is tingling.
Thanks for joining Azmat and for journaling.
If you must exaggerate to make a point, then you're must not be very good at making points.
Welcome to the site. I look forward to your journal.
The strength trainee says "Why sacrifice intensity when I can sacrifice volume"

"We are not sport, when there is a sport issue, we are not so good. The boxer is much better than us at boxing. But he will have to protect his balls if he wants to punch us."
Thanks and its no SIR. Azmat please :)
Thanks a lot guys. It is a weird time to have joined in as I just completed my meso cycle and probably take few days off before hitting PRs. Prior to that below are the vids of my best lifts so far.
1. Squat: 485 RAW
2. Bench: I dont think I have maxed out in recent times & cant find the vid of the earlier attempt but have the floor press 305 RAW.

3. Deadlift: 540 RAW

I have started using the gear and this is perhaps the best box squats with gear in recent times. Still need to adapt to sitting behind.

Guys, feel free to share your thoughts on the form etc.
I embedded your first video so you can see how to do it..hope you don't mind. I put it in collapse blocks so that a bunch of videos can be shown without holding up your page loading, etc..

Got a PR on squat today -
How do I embed the vids.. LOL, I tried doing something but it didnt work.
if you watch your video…right below it there is a button that says "embed"…click on that…then copy the code it brings up….paste it here in the post box. then put [[html]]………[[/html]] around it
i did it for you…if you go into options, and then edit under your post, you can view how it's done :)
Beauty! Congrats on the PR. Great poise. You made it look easy.
The way you guys have the squat cage set up is bugging the hell out of me. I have visions of your spotter tripping over that bottom cross bar and pulling you back with him barbell and all. Think you could turn it around?

I already congratulated on this awesome attempt earlier but I'll repeat myself, Azzy: Great job!!!

I was thinking about this as well. I think it's because the pull-up bar on the cage is on the outside right now. Turning it around would mean putting the bar closer to the wall.

Aarrgh, I saw lots of script there when I tried to edit. I will spend sometime on it later this week.
Thanks guys. I am planning to get a new cage soon. The one I have is fine but need to be firmly fixed on the ground.
Yes Eric, that cross bar is a worry always. Having said that I am having issues with the DL, unable to find the right split…I am stuck at 540lbs and have gone past it.
Will put up a new post with the details soon.
