Score: 1230#

I was pretty happy with today. My clean went up 10# and my deadlift went up 40#! I think I had a bit more on the deadlift. Form matters.

Not shabby Pointer!

3 or so years ago we were corresponding about lifting and you gave me estimates for your max lifts. These numbers have you putting 250 lbs on your "score" in that time. I'd say that's some nice improvement!

Carl- Thanks! I was also being a bit 'generous' in those estimates as I didn't want to look like a wimp. The lift I'm most disappointed in the bench press. It's WAY lower than what I did in high school. That said, we only do that lift a few times a year, with the programing I'm on. Guess I need to start spending a few nights a week doing some pushups.

I was hoping for 1200, but didn't think I'd quite get there. The deadlift put me over the top. Happy day.

Now I really need to work on the gas tank and waistline...

My gas tank and waist line are at an all time high after this season but I'm scared of what my lifts look like right now...
