And I love Dragon*Con and will be there all weekend! Come geek out with me! I’ll be watching the parade (10am Saturday) – near the corner of Peachtree St & John Portman Blvd!
I’m bringing my kids to the parade so I’ll look for you!
We’ll be there! We’re usually at the Peachtree and Forsythe area by the Quiznos.
Awesome!
Congrats on the PR, Cassi! Enjoy your geeky weekend!
Met my PR at 165#. I should have checked my PR before I started and could have tried to beat it.
max reps – 40 @ 115#
1 RM = 140# which is a PR
37 reps at 85#
Good job, Poole!
As usual I’m squat-challenged. I think my 105# was low enough to count, but it’s hard for me to get low and stay upright. Did 20 reps at 60. Liz’s 1RM was 115# and she got 30 reps at %.
1RM BS @ 285# (14# less than my PR)
16 max BS reps @ 170#
1 rep at 165#
Max rep 16 @ 105#
225 1RM B.Sq
Tried for 235 and got stuck in the squat :/
Max effort reps @ 135= 36
I was sweating like it was my job but I had do much fun! Plus the cheers were awesome-need those 8:30 peeps every time I lift!!!!!!!
