My boy Matt Brass

Matt and I have been friends for a long time now. Mostly him chirping me on the interwebs about squatting high. Matt has been going through some shizzle the last year. Personal ones as well as physical set backs. We started his road back by him cleaning out is personal problems. That took a ton of pressure. Then we tried some scary things. We started using thumbless grip on the bench! It was a great success! Terrifying, but a great success! He suffered a ton of pain when he was benching, to the point of making him vomit. That was gone and his shirted bench is on the way up! For his squat, we have worked on getting a lot faster. As well as becoming more vertical with his torso. It is coming along. Not as quick as the bench. But progress is progress. His personal life has become much much less stressful and less complicated. It's great because he is such a great person!! Ken Whetham has said many times that Matt is an amazing training partner. He's even better now that his happy!!!
