Whiskey, War, Suicide, and Guns

Thanks everyone, I appreciate it. The barriers were as much mental as physical. Onto 545/365/635.....


My next meet? Not sure. I enjoy the meets, but I enjoy getting stronger more than anything and it takes away a few weeks of hard training everytime you do one. I will probably wait until early next year. My totals have went 1265, 1385, 1422 in a little over a year of competing, so to keep the trend my next meet has to have a 15xx in front of it.

Getting stir crazy, decided to go do whatever I wanted today and test out my new camera. I tried push pressing for the first time in close to a year. I went for a base to start from for the 10rm contest but failboated at the end. I don't think I clearly locked out the 8th rep either. No sweat, it will come back quick once I get familiar with the movement again. I played with an atlas stone for the first time. I lapped on the first time, then got some pointers and loaded it nice and clean for 2 singles, then took a video of the 3rd which wasn't as pretty but my back was fried. That shit is hard.
 
Seeing that reminds me. I need to go for a front squat PR soon.
 
Hey! Just saw the meet results and vid. Nice going.

1st and 3rd BP = long ass wait for the press command.
 
Thanks. Yes, that woman is notorious.

Note: New video file sizes are much bigger and take forever to upload to Youtube.

I don't have any mental barriers. I just stayed relaxed and groovy.
 
I started thinking "why would you put headphones on when you've already got that playing?"

That gym looks really nice, we need to get toaster racks at ours.

Nice PPs too.
 
wow, very impressive numbers on your year long total's
good shit man, your beast
 
So. What's the story on the knee sleeves getting teh banzorz by USAPL? All knee sleeves by EFS? Just the Heavy Duty? Reason behind the decision? I mean, damn, I just bought those sleeves cause they fit within the rules for USAPL raw.

You can only wear neoprene sleeves. No knee wrap type material.
