hey bulldog. see there is a BIG differene between compitition lifts and what most everybody else does. At meets like that, the lifter must go down slow, and make a complete stop of the bar on the chest, and hold it there until the judge says he can lift it. usually this time period is only about once second.. and also, there is strict rules about other body parts moving, the only thing that can move is your arms.. u can't turn your head, arch back, wiggle legs.. nothing!..

oh, and since we are comparing accomplishments, im 160 pounds and squat 405.
