Technique focused today. I worked up to 325…80# off my old PR, but I think my form is getting better!
275# a new PR
Thanks to Merritt for pulling that weight belt an extra 3 notches each round 🙂 so that I knew even if I didn’t get a new PR at least I felt like I had the waist of a teenage girl 🙂

Rough dead lift day for me… I’m going to have to blame this less-than-thrilling performance on “concentrating on my form” or not having access to enough chalk. Just haven’t decided which excuse will make me feel better about myself.
Great work, Dana, Leslie G, and Megan! You guys rocked that belt and lifted some serious weight tonight.
