Love/Hate Relationship w/ Z-suit(my experiances)

[Deciever]

My buddy gave me a z-suit. brand new, never been used.

I attmept to put it on for my squat workout today... took like 10 minutes to get the legs all the way up , so im thinking that this is gonna be tight as hell, maybe too small. I pull it up, the hips arent that tight(my champion suit is a lot tighter).

The damn z-lock thing hurts like a mofo. It was digging in so bad, it hurt if i flexed my leg.
So i finnaly get it up and start squatting...

Suit bottoms on
1x6 45
1x6 95
1x6 135
1x3 185
Suit bottoms on, Belt on
1x2 225
1x1 245
1x1 275
Suit bottoms on, Belt on,Knee wraps
1x1 295
Suit bottoms on, Belt on,Knee wraps, Straps up
1x1 325(10lb PR!!)

The straps were pretty tight. Only problem i had was that , just like my champion, i couldnt get down past parallel. once the belt went on, the were all to about parallel, to 1" above... not USAPL passable. im not worried because the same thing happened before my last contest, and i burried everysquat like 2 inches deep.

So after this experiance, i learned that the z-suit is a good suit, except for the leg locks. I dont know if they help or not, but they do hurt alot. It was incredibly painful to take it off.

Just thought i share my experiances.

Good job on the squats bro, keep it up. I wish I was squatting like you when I was your age. Hell I wish I was deadlifting what you were then too.
