Bench

So today was a very exciting day. I was hoping to hit a nicer looking 150 than I did the first time I got it. Not only did I do that, I set a new PR @ 155 and that went so well I even attempted 160. I did get stapled, BUT unracked it myself and got it down to my chest. It stuck about an inch up and I bailed.

Mostly shared this because I was proud. Happy Thanksgiving Murph and the rest of Team TPS, you guys make things like this possible.

Your bench is looking better!
Congrats on the PR.

One bit of advice:

Go out on the high note.
Next time, TAKE THE PR!

One is good!

I get the excitement and wanting to smash more weight, but a PR is win. It’s better for most mentally to take the win and end on a PR.

You’ll be at 185 in no time.

Happy Thanksgiving.

Thanks for the advice. I did walk away feeling like I learned from missing the 160, so that’s at least a positive.
