    My 2 deadlift AMRAP sets from yesterday: 525x3 and beltless 405x8. This was after 5 warmup sets and 5 doubles at 525.
    Dang son, wish I was that strong.

    Hello! Nervous as this is my first post ever on MFP :blush: Relearning my Oly lifts, trying to rid myself of bad habits from CrossFit. 120 lbs PR clean at almost 9 months post partum.
    Nicely done. Likewise, I've fallen into some bad habits, but not from CF. happens.

    About at 30 seconds is one way to get them on.
    I don't have SBD but am getting ready to purchase a pair.
    My old neos are tight and I used this method to help out on the leg hair issue (short of shaving and using baby powder)

    I almost do the same. I just fold my in half and savagely pull them up to my knee-cap.

    There's no crying in powerlifting. :D

    Ran my warm-ups yesterday morning. (Compilation video of squat, bench, deadlift: kinda long.)

    Squat was feeling pretty good. I've got some technical things to keep in mind this weekend, but I am much more confident now that I can get a few good squats in. And my outfit game is right on.

    Also, I'm wearing my new INZER lever belt and let me tell you, the difference light-years more amazing than the "cheap" Lifting Large economy lever belt I had worn before.

    Looking good! Don't you love the belt? Mine bruises me and I still love it.

    This is my getting over my fear of wearing shorts to the gym PR.


    Way to overcome the shorts fear. I also don't see any fear of depth. Those were way deep.

    I've struggled with pull ups. It's one of those accessories that could be SO beneficial, but I just won't take the time to improve them.

    I only do them when my programming calls for them. Which might be a couple times a year. And I usually wind up complaining to my coach about them.

    I like how it was a pr and you stayed tight through the entire motion!

    Meet was yesterday. Not stellar. The back/ oblique issue was more of a hinderance than I anticipated. Meet was in pounds for some odd reason.

    Without going into the boring details, I finished 5/9. Squat: 2/3. 415, a platform PR by 1.6 pounds.

    Bench 3/3 with a 315 final (143kg) a platform PR of 10 lbs.



    Deadlift, 0/3, the back pain just too much. I did hit a top warm up of 375 but that was sucky.

    Congrats on the PR's especially under those conditions.

    Now that you've done it, how do you feel about it as far as your decision to do it?

    I would have had regretted not going, and everything I learned or observed I made sure to record and post on my blog for future reference.

    No regrets.

    Susan hit some huge milestones yesterday.
    314.5 squat (3 plates), 402 (!!) Deadlift, new all time low bodyweight (173), added 46lbs to her total in the past 12 weeks. She went 8/9.

    This is the loudest I've ever cheered for anyone I think. There may have been a few tears.

    She's been saying "some day I'll deadlift 400" for a long time. Yesterday was the day.

    Room in the tank too.

    Just an all around happy vid right there :)
