Matt Sohmer 815lbs Raw Squat w/o wraps (3x bw) and 770lbs Deadlift

visit my website at www.mattsohmer.com I decided to do a meet close to there I am going to school, competed with a bunch of friends. Felt good on the squats hit an okay PR, wanted more but a meet PR is a meet PR. It took a long time to get through my flight because there were a lot of people with the gear plus a 2 min window to complete the lift so I got little cold between attempts. Almost got 830lbs!! Definitely the lowest I've ever squatted, I was shown some side videos and I was easily 2-3 inches below parallel, you can probably tell from the front too. And yes I benched only 270, yes I know I have to work on it, just got over a really bad tricep strain so I couldn't really train it. For deadlifts I hit a PR on my 3rd attempt with 770 pounds, it felt good I probably should of done 710/760/800. I was completely shot by the 4th attempt. I broke 5 records both Open and Junior. I hit PR Total, so over-all I think I did good I was very happy with the deadlifts, little disappointed for the squats. Anyway it was along day I got there at 8am and left around 8pm but had a lot of fun. Next meet USAPL Collegiate Nationals in April Visit josh strength.com for amazing programs
