Today was ME Bench. We did Reverse Band Presses...with the Blue Bands that I just got. No one had a previous record...so PR's for everyone.
Reverse Band (Blue) Press:
Hannibal:419
Spatts.....287
Project....331
Everyone did well. I managed to tweak my shoulder earlier in the day....and it acted up when I was spotting. Hopefully it is just a "freak" thing...and will go away quickly. Spatts shoulder is healing up...no way do I want to inherit that injury.
Monday was ME SQ/Dl Day. And we did low box squats...kinda. Spatts and Project both did competition style squats...just had the box to catch them if they missed. I on the other hand was stupid enough to do my work on a 9.5" Box....which much to my dismay is WAY THE FUCK DOWN THERE!!
Hannibal: 265 X 3 (at this point both knees sounds like rice krispies, and I knew I just didnt have a Max Effort in me so I called it off)
PS.The Manta Ray SUCKS!
Spatts:
Previous Record from July 6th :265
Today.......................................276 (Hit depth and came up strong)
Project: 265 (Did two seperate singles and then called it a day)
As you can see Spatts kicked our collective asses today. Of course we all knew that 265 she squatted when we tested last time was a fluke. Now we just have to get her squat to keep up with her deadlift...which we all know is STRONG.
What can I say...Project lifted strong as always. Even if I think he cut it short before he needed to. Can't say much I did the same thing. I just knew I didnt have it.
