INSAIYAN Posted April 30, 2014 Report Share Posted April 30, 2014 I finally squatted 5x5 @ 315lbs! This has been a goal of mine for a while and seeing the three plates on each side made me feel accomplished. I hope to continue to reach new heights with my squat and apply the same motivation to my other lifts. WOOT!!! 4 Quote Level 2.

matty_mcfly Posted April 30, 2014 Report Share Posted April 30, 2014 Nice! Great job! I hit 2 plates on squat last week or so and it felt amazing. Whenever you add a plate to the bar it feels great. Keep it up...4 plates is next 1 Quote "I can. I will.

Adding more weight is always nice, but there's definitely something more invigorating about adding a plate. Quote Level 2.

matty_mcfly Posted April 30, 2014 Report Share Posted April 30, 2014 I've been thinking about the weight lighting milestones and I think they usually involve hitting 3 digits first, then 1 plate, 1 plate + 25s, 2 plates, et cetera. I just mentioned in another thread how awesome adding a plate is, but how deflating the next squat session was when I started back over with just 2.5lbs on each side Quote "I can. I will.

INSAIYAN Posted April 30, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2014 Yeah, 25s and 35s make the bar look more imposing too. I'm sure that the 2.5s book-ending the three plates will look goofy tomorrow. 2 Quote Level 2.
