For that beautiful max of 315 (twice! third attempt, grip failed), I had to false grip the bar. I don't think that's illegal, but I'll work on getting my grip strength up to not have to false-grip my max attempts. The iso holds were a tip I got from some guys on the forums of the 100% Raw Powerlifting Federation, the goal being a full 30seconds. Reverse lunges were easy today. Good mornings got a bit tough at the end there.
