Do you not aspire to compete internationally? They allow kit in u105 comps abroad and the European competitors in particular seem to do very well as a result of using it.

These personal objections to kit that a lot of UK organisers and promoters seem to have appears to be holding the potential standard back. What are your thoughts?

Squat is a very rare event, especially on the British u105 scene. If it started cropping up regularly I'd consider buying a suit. I don't have much spare cash.

I consider raw squat to be an excellent training exercise. I'm not training an 'event' when I squat (for a start I wouldn't go so deep if I was). I'm just training!

I do this sport for the love of it. I'm proud to lift raw and be drug-free. I'm too far off the pace to be a serious competitor in the near future. Hopefully I'll continue to develop over the years and maybe be quite good one day - and have lots of fun along the way!

Some additional thoughts on my workout last night:

Put the shirt on differently this time, with my hands fully supinated as the sleeves were being pushed/pulled into place.

When on, and I could pronate my hands, the sleeves twisted inwards, forcing the chest plate down. This prevented the shirt from riding up as it did on Monday and meant I didn't have to pull the collar down anywhere near as much in order to achieve a more dramatic effect.

Never worn my shirt like this before, but I think it is the way forward. Thank you to the guys who helped me with all of this last night.
