Comments:
-Got another(tighter) bench shirt on today, an size 42 Titan Fury, it's a bit ripped up hah
-I touched 198lbs, the shirt is still a loose one. I will buy a size 40 fury to use soon, but I'll use a 42 for this first competition as I wouldn't be able to get a 40 soon enough
-I kinda fucked up both PRs, the 253 and the 264. Miss grooved both, but managed to correct them. For both I started out pressing it too far forward, and pretty much had to stop and bring the bar back towards my head/chest. I'm a bit shit at using a shirt hah, I will learn...
-264 took pretty long as correcting it took a bit, but if I get it right I can get alot more. My head came off the bench, I didn't even notice it hah, the shirts tend to do that I think, gotta remember to keep my head on the bench
-If i groove it right I should be good for 275-286
-Board Presses were easy, will start to load up the weight on these soon
-5 weeks out today
