We are confusing wraps with sleeves are we.
There is a difference.

Who makes elbow wraps????????
See how you feel if you get to 200kg+ for reps in training each week and are looking to 250kg+ in comps.
You will want something on your knees.
Sleeves i got the inzer velcro ones.
Wraps i'm getting whatever ones Greggg tells me to get. Inzer something i think.
I dont know if I'll wear them yet. If i can be competitive with just sleeves and my knees are still ok i'll just wear sleeves. If i need to wrap up to be competitive though i will.
solid but not depth. Super centurion is also super uncomfortable, TRX at least let me get depth, I should really have stuck to the TRX at last lift at nationals and gone for 290kg instead of 300kg which squished me.
Carryover is all about training in the equipment, and working out how best to maximise the support of the shirt and suit/wraps.
I find Raw much easier on the body than equipped, and I don't end up with bruises, and a red face from the pressure of the suit. My goals are 250kg squat, 150kg bench, and 272.5kg raw deadlift before I put the equipment back on. that should give me 300+ 200+ and 290ish
It's no so much the weight required, as comfort and style. All suits in my experience require a different squat style than Raw, but with the TRX I found
it was closer to my raw technique, plus it didn't create as much head pressure and redness in my face as the super cent.
I've been pushing for raw behind the scenes for quite a while, and have been working with PA exec to get raw officially confirmed. Should be announced on website in the next week or 2.
The raw goals are just what I feel I need to get to my equipped goals. The other reasons is that I enjoy training and competing raw more than equipped, plus over summer training in shirts, wraps and suits is much harder.
the other issue with carryover is I suspect that it's easier for novice lifters to get big carryover than more experienced. 300kg still feels heavy on your back no matter what suit or wraps you are wearing, and no suit helps with walkout either. I think Jonnie is probably getting similar suit carryover as me now, and could get similar shirt carryover if he switched to a Katana and worked lockout strength and shirt technique more.
Can you edit this out of your post? I'd like the masters squat record to be within my reach when I turn 40, don't want SP getting any ideas about dropping weight classes.
