tz1127 said:just boiled my suit and ironed it dry. The straps actually hurt my traps now  Probably end up doing the same thing my inzer hardcore did to me! Actually how the hell did you get the straps up?? | |||

tz1127 said: mate if you have a comp on Sunday I definetly woud not use your suit because you have so little time to get used it to. Ideally you want 6-8 weeks in it, half of it straps down and half of it straps up. I'd also say not t use suit at comp if you've only used it once, unless its seriously loose | |||

For a 200kg opener barx8 60x5 100x3 120x2 140x1 160x1 180x1 190x1 Last 2 with comp commands. Too many warm ups imo for a 200kg opener i'd do bar x5 60 x5 100 x3 140 x2 160 x1 180 x1 | |||

tlast2O12dude said:wow really fast to be a 1RM, i think you have at least 5kg more in you. Tony's a c**t, f**k knows how he's managed to get a loose suit to give him so much speed from the floor | |||

tz1127 said:Thanks! We both have a very old school BWLA/GBPF coach who believes in "perfectly" straight back deadlifts. Most of the lifters in our club deadlifts sumo with a perfectly straight back. Guess we standout a lot  Actually i think its only Pat and Amr that deadlift sumo now, everyone else has gone back to conventional lol | |||

Post Edited: 30.11.2010 @ 13:32 PM by AdamC sprange67 said:OK, Z suit arrived, size 35, as on lable, so fine for 97kg according to Inzer web site. How do you get the fecker on, I can't even get my legs in it, I got it half way up my thighs and gave up, let alone get my butt in it. Any tips ??? Suit slip ons http://www.pullum-sports.co.uk/clothing-and-shoes/powerlifting... you can use plastic carrier bags too, its a case of slowly working it up i find by lunging into the suit as you pull it up you can get it on a lot quicker | |||

tz1127 said: As its a Z-suit, I assume you won't get much out of it, maybe 5-10kg? Personally I squat in a 2nd hand 1 ply Titan centurion that is 2-3 sizes too big. Generally get 40kg over my knee wrap only squat or 50kg over my raw squat without much effort. However, my style of squatting is quite conductive to getting decent carryover. Used to get around 70kg over my raw squat but it has stretched out quite a bit since then. mostly because you've got fat | |||

Post Edited: 29.11.2010 @ 13:05 PM by AdamC sprange67 said:Hi Adam The only kit I have is (yet to be delivered) an Inzer Z squat suit, which was a tenner on ebay, hence the only reason I bought it; just hope its as listed, new, I dont fancy wearing a second hand sweaty arsed suit . It says its for 100Kg lifter, so I'll soon see how tight. As for other kit I have no idea what would be a good starting point. If you can recommend a good shirt for a beginner that would be fab.Cheers Steve The z suit is a low end suit, as i'm sure you realise from the price, you probably won't get much if anything out of it my first suit was an inzer hardcore that was tight on hips and as but loose on straps and i hit depth right away, never got much from it, so unless the z suit is extremely tight I'd doubt you'll have any issues hitting depth in it and probably will get at most 10kg from it IMO the titan fury is a perfect beginners shirt | |||

| Equipped lifting is so much different to lifting unequipped What suit and bench shirt are you using? are they loose? tight? very tight? Its impossible to say how much you'll get from the equipment, it'll depend on what it is, how tight it is, how quickly you learn and master the equipment For example i know people that get 10-20kg from a shirt, and some that get much much more | |||
