Yep. Absolutely. And on the standpoint of form I am not into the whole gear thing. If I were to compete it would probably be gear free. BUT if you put on a suit you'd have a hard time squatting any other way than what he is squatting. If you were a powerlifter without a suit you are going to have a different position being optimal. This is the problem with people trying to emulate what they see on youtube vids.

If you act sanctimonious I will just list out your logical fallacies until you get pissed off and spew blasphemous remarks.

some good points, Eric. i think what you said about "impressive" being a relative term is very correct. it all depends from which standpoint we're seeing things.

I think that suits do help a tremendous amount, but I also believe a large part of it is the mental aspect and the idea that its going to be easier to lift 'X' amount of weight if I have on this suit.

You know, that's something to think about. I'm pretty sure that gear can have a 'placebo'-type effect.
