Pulled 445 today weighing in at 196lbs with no assistance. Feel like I could've done more, but it was humid and my grip was failing. Maybe next time I'll sneak some chalk in

Only 55lbs more to my goal of 500. Doesn't sound like much, but still seems so far away hehe

I'll bet you can do it there with everyone urging you on. With all those pros there, your bound to find 20 or so pounds worth of form improvements, too.

Congrats Gabe & Nick. Great pulls. Nice weight gain too, Gabe.

Nick, I'm going to give 405 a try at the summit. Are you game?
