Going Strict

Monday, December 14;

The only thing that got me out of bed this morning.. 1 rep max strict press. I just couldn't miss it. I've hit 85lb x 2, which means I should be able to lift more than that for a 1 rep max. Unfortunately, I did 85lb without a problem and then hit a wall. I wonder if I take fewer attempts and get to 85lb more quickly, if I'd be able to get a higher number. I'm pretty sure I have a 90lb press in me.

I'd also like to flash back to over a year ago, when I was desperately pushing for an 80lb strict press. I remember Cara and Ray assuring me that I had it in me. Thanks for believing in me! Feels good to get it.

WOD:
1 rep max
85lb
