Not bad at all today. I worked some form with straps up and it felt like it should. I’m looking forward to handling some weight next week. I took some video of the 505 and talked a little about my set-up with the KING and using the Spud 3 ply deadlift belt. I really like the combo.

Why wear such a loose suit?
Brian, cool little video man, that should help some people out with setup technique for sure.
Viking, the Metal DL suits don’t need to be crazy tight, just snug in the right areas. Brian pulls 800+ I think he knows what he’s doing, lol
Wow! That’s some crazy bar speed!
