How many reps would you wear a suit or shirt for at the most?

Did 3 sets of 5rep squats with chains yesterday in a suit with straps down and shitty briefs and my eyes nearly burst! Got some nice red patches and swelling all aorund my eyes today so had the sliced cucumber on them :D

Dont know how the WSM guys who squatted and DL'd in suits managed 7+ reps

I mostly do 1-3reps in my full kit, when going briefs only I sometimes go to 5-6reps.

I also sometimes use old single ply suit bottoms when I need some extra hip support, wide box squats for example which can be up to 8rep sets.

Certainly wouldn't want to go above 3-5reps in full gear!

3 reps in the shirt and 2 reps in full squat gear.

3 reps in the shirt. If you can do more then the shirt probably inst very tight.
2-3 reps in the suit for the same reasons. You gotta breath sometime :)
