It was a good time. The only downside was my granddaughter, Alex, couldn't be a part of it all. She was also excited about nailing a PR, but she had to work.that had to be one hellova session to be a part of...family as a whole had to feel great...congrats on all the PRs, and for damn near being only a hop and a skip away from yearly goals, only midway through the year....
No, Chris. I still have the entry. Here's the deal though. The original plan was to do push/pull. However, the promoter is billing this as a single-lift competition, so he can charge a fee for each lift. The first lift is $70, and each additional lift is $35. I find that really offensive and as of now, will restrict myself to one lift only on principle...although I'm kinda screwing myself out of having that much more fun.Awesome family training day. I have to say, I'm looking forward to your upcoming meet more than my own. But the fact you are thinking push-pull ... that's pretty cool. Too late to change your DL-only to an Iron Man?
Never really thought about that, Chris, but it makes sense. My shoulders tend to be too far forward as I begin the lift, which of course causes the bar to move out in front of me, so in my case, the cue can mean the difference between success and failure or having to horse up the lift with the resultant shaking legs and strained back.Nice work Al ... I've recently been a bit tentative about the cue keeping the bar close to the body, because while that's a good rule of thumb for most people, there are some people that round that lower back when it's too close. I think that was messing up my deadlift awhile back and thought it was because of my longer arms.
I know that you know what you're doing, but I was wondering if you agree or disagree?
