Very tough day. We got some pr's on the dead lift stuff though. Abbi did 2 at 175. Considering that she couldn't get 185 off the ground a few weeks ago that's not too bad. Big thing on dead lifts is get on your heals and look up to where the wall hits the ceiling. It is also a good idea to lower it down with control (keeping your back tight and shoulders back). Part 2 was very hard... well if you were using the correct weight it was pretty hard. Here are the times and weights for the part B:

Benton: 3:31 / 275 

Hickey: 5:26 / 240 

Abbi: 5:11 / 145

Hamza: 4:18 / 145 

Bell: 4:37 / 185 Strong

Joy: 5:26 / 95

Stanich: 4:29 / 135

Powers: 4:46 / 135

Tommas: 3:40 / 145 How did you go that fast?

Jack: 4:35 / 145 Posture!!

G: 3:43 / 185 Killed it

Taegan: 5:35 / 145 

Girls: You have all been working hard and are all much stronger. Look at your times / weights compared to all of the guys... 

Guys: You all have to get stronger... I am going to give you a pass because most of you just learned the move but you all really need to work on your form. Don't meat out and put a lot of weight on the bar and lift it with crappy form. Lets take some time to get the technique down. There are too many of you. I can't be checking in with all of you all of the time. You are going to have to be watching people that are good at these moves and try to emulate them. There is going to have to be some learning on your parts by yourself (or you could mess with a few alarm clocks to make sure you can get some attention). I don't want to rag on you guys too much because you just started but you need to learn the moves so we can get stronger and start seeing results (8 pack, huge veins, better math scores, ect). Fun / Form Day tomorrow. The focus is going to be on handstand pushups. Check out the video below
