Competed this weekend at the Movement Gym. Adam Glass was the host and ran a great contest! Very well organized and ran quickly. Here are my scores and some comments:
Vulcan @ 30mm
1) Level 9, good
2) Level 10, good
3) Level 11, miss
4) Level 11, good
>>> My fourth attempt for Level 11 was a battle. I hit it probably 5 times and each time it gave just a little. I couldn't believe I was able to bring it in. Glad I stuck with the attempt.
2HP @ 58mm
1) 165.36, good
2) 172.85, good
3) 178.035, good
4) 183.215, miss
>>> I was a little gun-shy on this lift due to some back trouble. However the lifts felt amazing. Everything after the first attempt was a PR. My previous best was 170 at Nationals. I took a risk on the 4th lift based on how good the third lift felt. I had roughly 181 loaded and then had Adam add two pounds at the last second. I got air under 183.215 and that was very exciting. I feel confident about going over 180 in Leg 3.
GripTopz Stub
1) 35.44, good
2) 37.93, good
3) 40.48, good
4) 41.79, good
>>> This was a good event for me, 12th overall. I was actually hoping this would be good enough for an 82.5kg World Record, but Daniel Reinard stole that with a huge lift of 44.55. I did get second in the class to his lift. I had more in the tank too. Video is below and I felt like I could have held this forever.
GripTopz Coin
1) 32.06, good
2) 35.07, good
3) 37.03, miss
4) 37.03 miss
>>> I had high hopes for this lift! 35.07 was a very easy lift and 37.03 would have been a World Record. I got it about halfway up on my 4th attempt, but it was not to be! In heinsight, I should have tried for another safe number on the 3rd attempt, but 35.07 felt SOO light. I finished 15th overall on this lift! Video is below.
