    Official PR Thread

    Other boards I frequent keep track of members PR's. Why can't the fine men and women here at /WBB/ have the same?

    I'll start

    Parallel Box Squat - 750+10 chains x 2

    We have a wall of fame. Everybody got all excited about it then it died like a week later.

    I'll go ahead and make it a stickie and we'll see how it goes. Try and just keep it to the PR's though. Discussion of PRs should probably be kept to the board so as to not clutter up the thread.

    I know about the wall of fame - this might be a little easier as you don't necessarily have to have video. Eh, either way we'll see.

    Tonight I hit a 450 free squat with just a belt.

    Recently I deadlifted 455, too.
