Like I always say... squat heavy, squat alone, squat to failure, and on the last rep, you will find out whether you are a man. Besides, this thing has a 350# weight capacity, what are you gong to do? warm up?

I didnt see the 350 lbs capacity. Why do they say the cable is rated for 2000lbs but the total capacity is 350 ?
I just know I am going to get stuck at the bottom of a deep squat some day. I have spotters attached to my rack but I dont like to use them when I go deep, its hard to get the them adjusted. |

I guess this one would be better 750 lbs, now if I only had 3000 extra bucks. I
guess Ill just have to give in and get one of those Safty Squat bars. I
just cant amagine having the bar stuck in one place on my back!!

Back in the day....I remember lifting heavy at the YMCA on breaks during college. I would give some high school kid a dime and the phone number to the nearest rescue squad in case I got into trouble. Spotter? Who needs them!
And yes, phone calls once cost only a dime. |

I think I remember when phone calls were only a dime. I was 10.

Don't you all keep your cell phone on your hip when you squat? Or is it just me? Terry
