Followers, some of you may have the same issue I have where you find yourself ripping slacks/jeans apart if you buy them to fit, or they either swamp you due to a large butt/legs and a small waist. I’ve decided I’m just going to start getting custom stuff and was curious if anyone has ever used this site

It’s a great day to be alive! Enjoy it!
1. I squatted 535 today, and it was easy, flew up and looked like 405. Unfortunately this will be the last time I squat heavy before nationals since I have to miss out on squatting next week due to coaching obligations (regionals down in Sarasota for 3 days). That being said it’s a good confidence boost and making me debate whether or not to take 580 on my 3rd attempt at nationals.
2. It’s a fellow coaches wedding day today. I’m rocking my seer sucker suit with white bucs.
3. It’s Cinco de Mayo and thus I shall drink too much tequilla. A friend and I have also hired a mariachi band to follow us around post-wedding. We figure it will be a great conversation starter. ”Do you have a mariachi band following you around?” ”Why yes, yes indeed I do”.
4. Kentucky Derby today. I will probably drink a few too many mint juleps.
5. Sometimes it’s not about what you lift, the lifestyle you live, or how healthy you are. Sometimes you just have to throw down, enjoy things, and truly celebrate that you are alive. Today is one of those days.
Live today like it’s your last.

Do they not have the feet-flat-on-the-floor rule?
Not in this federation. I change my foot position based on how my hip flexor feels (partially torn). If it’s not feeling too bad then I go feet down as I get more leg drive out of it, if it feels like crap than I go up on my toes (at least if it’s allowed in whatever federation I am competing in at the time).
