Logistical issues with 8-9 man squat night:
We have my rack set to my height. Gage, Jake and Charles all use my rack height.

Jordan has to have a higher setting, so he had to be on the gun rack.

I had the biggest squat, so the bigger squatters needed to be on my rack, all save Jordan because of the rack height.

Gage and Jake were deloading so they needed to be on the gun rack.

Christan, Berry and Dalton are the lightest squatters so they needed to be on the gun rack.

Berry gripes and complains every time he has to lift with Christan, then he gives the business about reps, then gives me shit when I walk in his direct line of sight while he is loading a bar, then he threatens me with a mule jaw.

Mike graciously squats with me even though the rack is too low for him.
