Why is it a dumb question??? Obviously knee wraps and a squat suit can add plenty of weight to your max squat... Sorry I can't answer your question. Maybe try the powerlifting forum if you don't get the response here... [This message has been edited by DREXX (edited September 07, 2000).] | ||

I powerlifted from 1985 until 92. The equipment has changed a little. But back then i used the double gold line knee wraps, and the marathon suit. The wraps usually added 50 punds and the suit 20-25. I have heard guys say that with the newer equipment they have now, they have added well over 100 pounds to there lift. The last meet i was in was the uspf senior nationals in 92, i placed second with a 2015 total, this is how i used my suit and wraps to get the most out of them. I hit a 12 week training cycle, the first 4 weks i used no wraps or suit. Weeks 5-8, i used only wraps, weeks 9and10 i used wraps and suit with straps down weeks 11 and 12 full gear!!! | ||

Ripped he is wondering how much it will add to his total on the day of the show!!! He knows it will not make him stronger (quads,hams,lb) but it will increase his max poundage... Which is the point when you compete in powerlifting... | ||
