    Incredible. It almost made me nervous how long he stood there before going down. Most people would want to get that over with asap, but then again...you've got to respect that much weight. You can't treat it like it should be lifted quickly and without care. Ray Williams is a beast!

It's the same reason you don't un-rack barbell bench and hold it over your chest for 20 seconds before pressing. All in all, you have some killer form on squat man!

If so, then go look at his video of him benching 320 @ 175. Or you could have turned on the Arnold's stream today and watched him squat 501 @ 165. Pretty weak squat considering the best squat at the 1st IPF Classic Cup last year was 501 @ 162.

    Ray, you will have to decide early on whether you want to associate with those that utilize drugs as part of the training program and lift in federations that have little or no discernible standards. Or, do you want to lift in a tested federation, with over 5000 members, a World Games participant, over 140 sanctioned events/year in the US, members in all 50 states, and a pathway to true international championship. Lilliebridge, Louie Simmons, Mark Bell are none of these.
