3 For 3 AGAIN...
Today was ME SQ/DL Day. We have changed up our rotation just a bit...rotating every week instead of every two. Hopefully that will help us stay fresh and keep us breaking records.

When Project got his PR on GM's today I thought it was the ugliest thing I had ever seen in my life. And up to that point it was. However, that was before I went for my PR. I have NO IDEA how...but I got it, and somehow managed to do it without killing myself. From my partners' expressions I think I came pretty close though. ME day is supposed to be ugly...and this day was no exception.
Spatts hurt her back on 221. So we were all kinda concerned. But she NEVER quits. Went for her PR and was STRONG. Only problem was her shoulder...the bar started rolling on her. She didnt let it stop her...got her PR...hopefully with some AR the next couple days she will be fine.
After watching her lift though I realized how bad the straight bar is to use for GM's. So I just placed an order for a Safety Squat Bar. So the next time that Chain Suspended GM's come up we will have a new bar that WONT ROLL. It's a much more effective exercise, and it is shoulder friendly. We have done SO MUCH work to get her shoulder healed...not going to let her get reinjured.
GOOD LIFTING!!
