(I agree about the squat rack part!)
Good news, though. Over the holidays, I was finally able to squat 150 pounds the normal way (above my head and everything). My deadlift has increased to 230 and I can now do an overhead press of about 108-110 pounds. My weight is settling more around 160, which should be good as long the gains are mostly fat-free weight.
Calorie-wise, I'm able to eat about 5,000 without barfing too much. I'll keep training accordingly and getting enough rest in between.
