Squat suits suck

[musc2002pa]

On the first 225, you rounded your back in the hole. This is a bad thing, which will cause you to miss lifts in a heart beat.

Make sure you are pushing your chest out....and maintaining an arch in your lower back. Also, push your abs out and hold your breath. Your coming foward looked like a combination of loosing your low back arch and not keeping your abs tight.

The second rep with 225 looked a little better. It should have felt better. The SUIT CAN cause you to do this!! You have to PUSH BACK against the suit (sit back not down). If you sit straight down with a suit on.....guess what...the suit will push your foward, causing your low back to round! Try sitting back more in the suit. Don't worry you're not going to fall backwards. I think this will solve a lot of your problems, and actually make your squat stronger.

i have been reading the post and if the belt is digging into you just move the belt up higher. Their is no rule that says your belt has to be in any specific position on your hips to squat. shit for me i wear my belt up around the middle of my stomach for squatting and up even higher when i deadlift. it is the only way that i can use it to keep from digging into me. WOW i have never seen someone have so many problems with a squat suit. I wish you the best of luck. i couldn't download those pics so if you could repost them i would like to see what your doing and maybe i can offer some words of wisdom. GOod luck

My belt will leave bruises also...I have a HUGE one on my right side and hip from doing the high rep deads last weekend at my contest...

I always got pinched with my belt when doing box squats also...so I just do them raw now...
