205 x 1 x 6, 195 x 1 x 3, swings, pushdowns

Everything went great. Changed the technique to "push the bar back" at the start and it worked perfectly.

goes against every tenet of powerlifting ( the athlete moves around the bar, which has to move only vertically against gravity) but it worked!

Rack bar high on neck

Spot the X on liftoff

Push the bar back over my head


If I do this the hips tend to move forward to counterbalance my bar and it happens automatically

We'll see Monday but I know this is right, even if I can't do it yet

155 x 1
175 x 1
195 x 1


 

then 6 sets with 205 ( missed the second one out if front) but the rest went great. 5th  one was a BIT forward so I took a sixth




then 195 for three sets
