Ring the Friggin' Bell !

I just pulled 405. Yeah motherfuckahs !!!!!!!!

Went to Wallymart about an hour ago and bought 4 45 lb oly plates. Even though I dont have an oly bar, I planned to sandwich them between 2 25s to hold em until I get my oly bar.

So I loaded em up, and I was kinda struck by how much higher it is than before with just 25s on it. The bar sits much higher now. I didn't expect it to budge, because all I've had to work out with was 325. Sonofabitch if it didn't come right up. I had to strain a bit to get knees and hips locked, but not as bad as I'd have thought.

I gues doing the things suggested here really do work. Y'all aren't as full of shit as I thought.

Thanks to Carnal, Lusst, Flak, Barut, Sonny, Urban, Smashius, Finnegan, and everyone else who contributes here.

Fuckin' A !!

Congrats, man. That's a big accomplishment.

Glad I helped, but I'm not really sure what I did to inspire you to lift 405. Except maybe serve as a cautionary example -- "be strong like bool, not weak like flak."

Take care of that finger.

Excellent work.

I don't know how long you've been around S&P, but pulling 405 means you officially have testicles in my opinion. This is a long and proud tradition.

Congrats!

Sweet.

So, you beat the shit out of someone and then Carnal gave you your balls. What are you planning to do for an encore?
