Tyler had an excellent meet this weekend at the Starting Strength Coaches Meet in Wichita Falls, TX. Our video of his 500 lb squat was not great, but this photo by @nickd_ssc is pretty fantastic. #Repost @tmjholm with @get_repost ・・・ Great shot from @nickd_ssc this weekend at the SSCA Coaches Meet. Finally got my goal of 500 lb squat, 200 lb press, and 500 lb deadlift all in the same meet. Thanks to @testifystrengthconditioning for coaching and handling! @startingstrength @usstrengthlifting #squat #press #deadlift
