Despite having about 4.5 hours sleep ( stupid cat) this went well. MUCH better than expected. Made some mistakes in the beginning sets( losing tightness as I started the push). I hit 215 for two singles ( not great but close enough to lockout to please me) and 3 attempts at 220 , the second one I almost locked out ( and we lost to video error) and then 4 decent down sets with 205 very fast , especially when I realized I have to keep the glutes tight as I push to face
I must have been relaxing just as I initiated the press BUT pushing first to the chin/face definitely is a keeper
65 85 105 x 2
135 x 2
155 x 1 fast
175 x 1 fast
195 x 1 loose knees
then my 220 three attempts. first just too loose in hips, second I actually MADE but the video got cut out and this was my third. The second attempt wasn't pretty but I got it locked out as much as the 215then 4 sets of 205 solid overall very happy with today's training. this approach seems very doable, and leaves me wiggle room for adjusting on the fly.
Key Cues
1) come to complete stop after unracking
2) flex glutes and legs
3) drive bar to face and KEEP glutes tight
