I'd still be doing goblets if my gym had db's that went past 130lbs. That's the only set back, you run out of resistance quickly.

Well

I have never maxed on CG 3 boards SOOOOOOOOO technically its a PR with 107.5kg cos thats the most I ever handled CG. ; )

Kane I use spinlock dumbells so I can get em pretty heavy if I want.Not an exercise I'll load to the gills but def gonna keep it in there for reps.The core work on them is amazing.

Deads: You're shooting your ass up as soon as you pull, its more like an SDL than a conv. dead. Instead of trying to stand up with the barbell focus on hip extension. Push your ass and hips forward instead of up.

Gobelts: You made it below parallel so I'm going to say that the barbell squats were too heavy. You couldn't make depth because of the weight.

I was a few inches in from my normal stance.But not having a bar on my back def has an effect.i will work my stance out wider on these and see how it goes.If I want to squat hella wide I might need to get that bar up higher on my back too.
