Remember my friend the bar cannot go back down at all. It can go up as slow as you like but cant dip back down. Aside from that though great job on a new weight!
Your're right, it would've red lighted for sure in a meet, but for a gym PR, I'll take it. Things have been going great progress wise lately too. Still dealing with a couple nagging injuries, and I won't be able to compete in May since the baby is due May 14th. My training partner is still going to do it, and I'm still hitting the CUBE as if I was going to do the meet. Hard work pays off regardless, we both know that.

Since the baby is due, I've been buying equipment for my own home gym. I have a Power rack being made by a buddy of mine that makes Strength equipment (Texas Power Concepts he's on FB), and a reverse hyper/ghr combo, and I already have a prowler and 375# standard weights. On the way this weekend is a plate loaded lat pull-down machine, and 450# more weights, and I also got a Texas Power bar sitting at home too!
