In reading the works of many sports scientists, Hatfield boiled down their thoughts to seven fundamental laws that apply to all training (although some sports might have additional laws). These are the seven principles that guided him to squat 1,000lbs without the supportive suit technology available now for powerlifters. He indicated that these laws apply to all types of training and not only powerlifting."

Taking anything over 500 lbs off the rack hurts like hell I cannot even imagine twice that. For me the hardest part of doing a 1 RM squat is just getting in a comfortable stance after taking it off the rack.. and barely doing over 1/2 what he just did.."drug tested"
lol
still mirin hard as fuk

It was done in the IPF. At that time, all they had was single ply. It was most definitely a single ply suit and knee wraps
The subject matter of this thread is a belt and knee sleeves only.
I'm not trying to discredit Dr. Squat at all but Ray's squat is a world apart

But this was hands down the best squat I've ever seen in my life. No words to even explain how incredible an achievement that is.

Accept it or don't. It doesn't really matter. Go look at the record books if you don't believe me

Erics 920 @ 308 in sleeves
Eric hitting 955 @ 308 in training, also in sleeves.
I think Ray Williams hit depth better than Eric but certainly when accounting for the body-weight difference Eric is up there too.

Some of these guys act like they were lifting in spandex tights with kleenex knees wraps too which is just rubbish

These guys are simply on another level but no doubt that right now Ray is king.2 relevant links:

Anyone know what his dead and bench maxes are? You would think the guy's totals would be higher than Lilliebridge and Malanichev.

We need a new ideology with the core values of reason, honesty, science and secular progress over the older traditions of religion, superstition and dogmatic faith that have long defined humanity. We will never be free to progress and advance until the last stone from the last church is cast down onto the last priest. And every equivalent.
