Nice PR brother , 270 x1 is very impressive. I see 300 around the corner for you.
So I’m doing my 20sets of 1 at 190, pissed off at the wife so I figure I’m gonna try for a PR. 225 is previous best. I put 230 on and it goes up smoothly (PR). So, next I try 240. Here is the result
Sorry, here is the vid of 240, I hope.
I know, I kinda push pressed a bit. Notice the double clutch at the top. I held my breath too long and got fuzzy, hence the drop!!!
that’s impressive rug! nice job - should have said a few choice words at the end there.
It’s a good idea to stress test the equipment now and then. Strong lift, Rug.
Nice work, RL! You really attacked that.
You don’t see it in my 270# video, because the wife stopped recording, but my bar did the exact same thing. The weight didn’t come off, though.
Good stuff!
And how tall are you?
Oh hell ya! That was awesome, Rug!

Thanks. I was thinking that the singles were becoming a bit much, but apparently not. They worked so far so I’m gonna reset and start again.
5’9", and shrinking I think. Either that or my daughter just continues her growth spurt.

I thought that is how tall you are. You look taller in the video. I would have guessed at least 5’11".
Great work…
Guess these should go here. They aren’t weight PRs, but definitely progress towards that end.
235x5 - PR +1 Rep
and
245x4 - PR +2 Reps
Sir, those reps were bangin. Nice work.

Hell with It!! Im getting back into the race.

Actually, I kind of was. I had nothing to push me but my own pride…and that comes and goes.
Nice work at 275, Skip. I’ll be posting here soon. I’m guessing around Christmas for a test. Gotta beat 240, ya know?

Just understand that its going to be a few weeks for me to get use to doing them after my layoff from them.

Time to resurrect this thread.
