Thanks!
Lol I didn't think about it that way but it's true. A very mild buzz, among the 3-5 people who watched it, which is more than I expected. In contrast, I've seen the place go wild for someone who has no business even attempting one but flailing, flopping, and wiggling their way into their first bar muscle-up after 20+ consecutive failures; or for a guy making a squat "PR" of 245 done to 4 inches above parallel. It's a funny world, Crossfit, but we do owe it a lot.
Looks like 315 is in your near future, Wolf! Congrats, again.
Thanks buddy, 315 shall be a glorious day indeed! I hope to hit it towards the end of the year, along with the vaunted 500 bench, if I can put together another good training block after a summer of less intense training. But first, one more week of pushing to a bench PR next week!
Bench: no belt or wraps
Worked quickly up to 425x1 @8.5, then 275x5x2 close grip
Notes: Just hitting a 90ish % rep to hold on to the feeling of heaviness, so when I go for 470-480 on Weds it won't have been 2 weeks since I held anything heavy in my hands on bench. Considering Wednesday pressing and benching, quick warmup, and lack of belt or wraps, I'm pleased with how this went.
Press - dead stop, strict
185x5x2
Landmine Row Thingy
90x6, 135x6, 160x6, 180x6x3
DB Curls
50x10x2
C2 Erg
30/75 x8 first two warm-ups, then 6 at 1:40-1:45.
Followed by 2x250m with 1:30 rest @ 1:55.
Late to the game, but congrats on the 300 lb Press! I hope to follow someday.
About halfway through LP, pressing 135 next week. One plate milestone lol.
