New TITAN Gear! @ Orlando Barbell

2012-05-05 - 22:34 | Uncategorized |

I finally got my gear in from Titan, and it was well worth the wait. After being in pain for the past couple weeks and really doing nothing I decided to go out to orlando barbell and bench, squat, and deadlift with some big lifters. Today was the first day wearing this gear and I was worried of how long it would take to break in.

The first set with shirt was 275 and it locked up quick and fit great, then we went to 315, and even closer with a great pop. I touched with 335, then worked boards up to 365 lbs. Also, my squat and deadlift were both on point as well.

I was looking for volume since I havent done much lately and also I have to take it light because of my back. This workout is the first one in a long time where i didnt have near dabilitating pain in lumbar so maybe the forced rest has been good for me…. time will tell i guess.
