Your goals for 2010

[Althis]

to drop about 10 pounds during track season and increase my 400 time from 58 to 52

 

[RedLantern]

^ that would be a decrease.

#1 - Avoid re-injuring my back
#2 - Do 10 strict pullups
#3 - See veins in my biceps (while pumped)

 

[Althis]

decrease time, increase speed, same difference lol

Gear... lifts can include ply denim suits and other small tricks that can add serious poundage to your numbers and are used by powerlifters in competitions and in training.

People train in gear? I mean regularly, not just to test the gear itself or do mock comps.

Yeah. Gear is treated just like bands, chains, boards... whatever. At my gym we usually suit up for a week every 2 months or so. It takes a lot to be able to really utilize your bench shirt/suits so you gotta practice too.
