New/Old technique worked! 215 and 220 + 5 sets of 205

 I was hoping things would go like this but had little faith considering how many times I've gone through this. Also definitely not feeling great. Nothing physical but just flat. Plus I never know how things are going to go til there's weight on the bar

And it went GREAT. Other than on miscue at the first 215 attempt when I dropped my chin and the bar went forward every set and rep went so well!! Couldn't be happier, actually.

Cues

1) Flat foot

2) Wide stance

3) Elbows vertical

4) Glute take off

5) Hip forward

6) Pause signal

7) hips drive forward

8 ) Find the "X"

worked like a charm from the first warmup. Very natural too. Take off much better

195 x 1

205 x 1 this was a great sign
215 second attempt. looking for the X was the only difference
220 x 1 ! one of my best lockouts too. Almost didn't take it because I didn't want to rush things
205 x 1 downset
2nd set
