We had a nice group train together July 4th at The Strength Lab. We finished up a 3 week wave of box squats vs the EliteFTS Strong Bands. Week 1 - worked up to a triple, Week 2 a double, and this week was a heavy single. Due to some cranky elbows in our training crew, we switched to the safety squat bar this week.
The issue with the SSB and the heavy band tension was that it was tough to get the bar in a good position to unrack it.

bar x 5 135x5 185x3 225x3 275x2 315x1 365x1 -krait knee wraps 405x1 unracked, but couldn't get in good position/ a good breath so I called it there.
Deadlift vs EliteFTS Average Bands. 225x1 275x1 315x1 365x1 405x1 455x1 495x1 545x1 585x1 - most I've had to work for a deadlift in a while, but it was a good feeling to have that in my hands.
