Those darned thighs! might be coming apart again. I WILL get the right someday! the shoulder traps are not going to be a problem they were just tacked on so i will make the adjustment. shoulder bells are an issue im working on, trying all sorts of strapping to get them to stay forward. the biceps dig into my arm at both ends. they end about an inch above the black strap from the bells but the strap (you cant see) covers it up. neext wil be the clamshell closure for the ab and to try to keep the back plate in place, difficult when you cant see whats going on back there, as im sure you all know. thanks for the advice Glen I will get back to work and let you know.
