As I worked my way up with the lighter weights I started off in my deadlift shoes and had one of the guys check my squat depth from the side. I then repeated the same scenario with my princess shoes on. With my deadlift shoes I was hitting parallel but I was at the limit of my squat depth. When I switched over to my weightlifting shoes I was hitting below parallel before I hit my depth limit. It was an easy decision for the rest of the workout weightlifting shoes only.
Once I was past 315 lbs all my remaining sets were 1 rep only. 335 easy, 355 easy, 365 easy, asked Scott for a spot on the next one 385 easy! and then Scott and I agreed fuck it go for 405 lbs (video below of that squat). It went up pretty easy and I hit depth no question. I was very happy with achieving that squat and my body survived with no issues. No belt and my back felt gtg.
The rest of the workout was gravy, hit some light front squats and a few heavy sets of romanian deadlifts and called it a day.
The monkey is off my BACK gym rats.
