LOL...didn't think it was you at all.
While there are many reasons to call me a dumbass, I think perhaps they were referring to the fact that I left the goofy part of my bench videos in there, and laughed at my own video.
It's karma, so it's no big deal anyway, and it was gray karma, so it's even less important. I just mentioned it to spatts out of amusement.
ME SQ/DL
Tonight we kinda split up on our ME work. Spatts was tryin to break in a new suit. While Project and I had a date with the SS Bar.
Chain Suspended (36") SS Bar GM's
Hannibal
Previous Record: 351 X 2
Today..................351 X 3 (Could NOT get 373 to budge)
Project
Previous Record: 351 X 1
Today..................329 X 3 (tried 351 4 or 5 times...just couldn't get it)
Spatts
Comp Squat
Previous Record: 320
Today..................331 (suit threw her forward on 353 and she missed...straps might be too short)
Comp Deadlift
Previous Record: 353
Today..................375 (397 was an inch or two from lockout)
Project and I had a great battle. Even if the numbers don't represent that. We both brought out 110% from one another. I am hoping that the effort will carry over into the deadlift like it should. We will probably do Reverse Band Deads next week so we will see.
Spatts is learning the equipment. She was VERY STRONG tonight as always. We will have her box squatting in the suit and working on form. So that she can get the most out of the equipment. Definitely will get her Elite in her first comp in Dec. She is an inspiration to lift with.
Nice work!

I can't wait to see what kinda progress your Rev Band Deads have made from the 36" GMs. I started those myself about 3 Weeks ago after the constant repitition of hearing you guys using that height.. So come on, blow away some PR's and give us some always needed motivation..

Man, I JUST read that. No offense, I KNOW you mean well, but please don't say that. I'm gonna go out there and give 110%, but if I don't hit Elite I will still know I gave it all I had, and I'll do it next time. I'm just not sure a statement that bold is warranted just yet. I can't say that until I've done it. 1053 assumes I make no mistakes, make all my attempts, and meet weigh-in. The jury is still out, and will be until the bar hits the floor.

Screwball speaks the truth. We are lookin for some kind of meet for her to lift in. The one in Muskogee would have been perfect, but scheduling didnt work. Would like to find a push/pull, or at least a bench meet. Have to find something that doesnt interfere with the Band Cycle we have set up for squatting. Hoping to find something on the lighter weeks.
FLOOR PRESSES SUCK
Today was ME Bench Day. And it was time to dust off the Floor Press and take it for a spin.
Floor Press:
Hannibal:
Previous Record: 331
Today..................331 (tried 353 but got pinned)
Project:
Previous Record: 210
Today..................199 (tried 210 and missed)
Spatts:
Previous Record: 177
Today..................177
No PR's today. It had to come to an end some time. It is funny that we ALL get stronger together or hit plateaus together. I think we all have a hatred for the floor press. That is just all the more reason we should be doing them.
We did learn something important today, however. When Spatts worked up she made 133 and missed 177, so we went back and made smaller jumps. She made 155 and 166...then made 177 relatively easily. Going to make smaller jumps in future for her and Project and see if that helps with muscle recruitment.
NICE WORK
