Thanks everyone! Once I go back to training I'll start logging again.

How long did you hold the record for? That's fucking outstanding, doctor squat #2

Here's the deal:there was a lifter that didn't make weight for the 82.5 kg class. So they put him in the 90kg class but for convenience reasons he was lifting on the other platform, so i didn't even know he existed until the meet was over. He called for 295kg, which was well within my capabilities. Hell, I might have been good for 300kg. I forfeited my 4th attempt, since I thought the record was mine anyways. I could have called for 275.5 kg but since I was the last lifter of the flight, I would have followed myself. In those situations you have exactly 4 minutes extra of rest and you know that's not enough rest, much less enough to go for a world record.
