Cool

Here are a couple pics. Sorry it has to be a link. I haven't found a place that will host pics for free and let me post them directly here. If anyone knows of one let me know.

Squat suit front, no Straps
Straps up Front

Straps up back shot

Notice how tight it is. Its too bad that you can't tell how think it is or I don't have anywhere to host video. Its pretty funny watching me get the thing on. It takes about five minutes.

On my left it says "love" and on my right it says "strength" in latin.

Yeah, its a bit tight. But I am a total metro-powerlifter. My suit, belt, and shoes all match!

Its all in my hamstrings and upper back. Which is cool, but I would love to have a bit more in the tricep too.

Here I go being stupid again but . . . I didn't know there was such a thing as a squat suit!
Danny, does it actually help in the lift?
Interesting!

A lot of people don't know what they are. I haven't taken mine on a ride yet for a max effort squat so I don't know how much I am really going to get out of it. Mine is pretty loose by powerlifting standards and is also really thin. I have a one ply and they go up to three ply standard. The three ply is where people start getting huge numbers out of them. The main thing I got it for is hip protection. I squat really wide because its easier to break parallel that way and because once you learn it you can be much stronger but its killer on the hips without a suit.

Unless a person is powerlifting I see no need for something like a squat suit or bench shirt.
