We did these out of the monolift. The last set, I asked a guy (gym regular, but not part of Nemisis) to operate the hooks who apparently had never done it before. He got them out of the way fine when I racked the weight, then as I sat on the box for my third rep, he pulled the hooks down so when I stood up, I hit the bottom of the hooks. I sat back down. The three spotters helped me up, again to hit the bottom of the ****ing hooks that were still down. I sat back down and yelled "get the ****ing hooks out of the way!" He got the hooks out of the way and I got the bar racked. wtf. I take partial blame for not instructing the newb on how to operate the hooks, but wtf, at what point does common sense kick in? Aside from getting my back a little scraped by the knurling, I didnt get hurt, thankfully.

spent. I think the heavy doubles took the most out of me, but also that last set of box squats fiasco didnt help either. I'm gonna be sore later today.
Here's a picture of one of my teammates (Jay) getting wrapped before squatting 1000 lbs, with me and a couple other teammates in the background:
That's a Mastodon squat bar, which to my knowledge, is the thickest bar available. Look at the bend. Jay did two singles with this. One hit parallel and one was high because he started to black out.
