## Caption

#TBT To last week's top set of #squats. I've been going back and forth about whether or not to post this since I probably would've been red lighted for depth if it were in a meet. However, a year ago I wasn't even sure if I would ever compete again. I dealt with a pretty shitty back injury that kept me out from competing for over 2 years (also bc of neglecting proper rehab #lessonlearned). My last meet before getting injured was Raw Nationals 2014!!!! My 3rd attempt was 150kg/330lb which was actually the best squat in my weight class at that meet. Kudos to all the strong ladies now 🙌💪The difficult part wasn't even the physical pain, it was emotions I dealt with watching my friends competing and getting stronger while I couldn't even squat the bar.
.
Today I took 374lbs (170kg) for a ride. #roadto405 It wasn't pretty by any means but the fact that I felt confident enough to attempt this weight means a lot to me. Soon. chadwesleysmith #jugglife #juggcoaching #usapl
