I tried. No go. I'll try again later. I gothe 195 up, but 225 wasn't moving.
However, I did hit 405 back squat w/ no belt. The belt they gave me just kind of hung at my waist.
405 was the most I was willing to try w/o one. It went up easy enough. I'm geussing my max is prob. in the 425-450 range.
will do a full write up later.

very nice Finny. Your squat should very shortly reach 500.
did u take 400-500mg of caffeine prior to the workout?
USE a belt. Put it on as tight as you can get it..this should help a lot during push press....A LOT....have some1 get you a notch more than u can comfortably(or use a leverage of somesort [like a rack or something]...

Ful workout from weekend
PP:
45 x 10
135 x 3
155 x 3
175 x 1
195 x 1
275 x 0 (on purpose)
225 x 0, 2 attempts
Squat:
45 x 10
135 x 5
225 x 5
315 x 3
365 x 1
405 x 1, PR
Z squat:
315 x 3
385 x 3
405 x 3
475 x 0, (quarter squatted it)
Weighted Dips
bw x 5
+45 x 5
+70 x 3
+90 x 3
+115 x 1
bw x 30
DB Snatch
45 x 5
75 x5
95 x 5
Pullups
5,5,5,5,5
misc: some bench, lots of demo stuff for my girl at low weights, two 100 meter sprints (13 sec.) at the end of the workout.
Impressions:
Wow. This workout was done at Kent State University's gym. They have a sea of machines that spill out everywhere: along the track, by the pool; everywhere!
1 power rack
1 squat rack.
2 dip stations
2 pullup bars.
Anyway, I can now sympathize with you poor bastards who have to work out in gyms. The squat rack didn't even have any 45's near it. I had to take them off of machines and the endless row of benches loaded w/ 135.
The powerrack is bent, so the weights are at an angle.
They had two belts for back support, one ancient leather strap that I wouldn't trust to hold together my shoes let alone my torso, and a thin "fitness brace".
Also, no chalk allowed. No clanging weights too loudly. NO PROTEIN SHAKES IN THE EXERCISE AREA!
Dumbells went up to 95 lbs, but they didn't have any dumbells for free weights. What the fuck!
I can only hope their athletes have somewhere else to train.
Oh, and no deadlifting allowed, as its "too noisy."
As far as the workout itself, I was mostly just frustrated by all the little annoyances. The one thing they had was a dip belt, so I did some weighted dips with it. Much more comfortable than my logging chain, but not $80 more comfortable.
Overall, I give their weight room a 1 out of 10, and the one is only because it had a squat rack with enough free weights for me to use it. They also had Ivanko bars, which feel very different than my bars at home.
