      I made my first 315 and I think I finally found my best foot position! So excited about this. I don’t think I had as much form breakdown as usual for a PR either. I went for 335, after but it only came to my knees. Still a very good outing I think.

      Congrats on the PR!
      315 is a BIG deal.

      Were you scheduled to test in your current block today?

      It said to take 1-2 reps at an RPE 10, and since 300 only felt like an 8 or 9, I jumped up to 315. It didn’t say test but I wanted to work up to a real RPE 10. Was that wrong?

      Nope.

      I was just checking.

      Next time, take the PR.
      We’ve been down this road before.
      We don’t really like you missing in training, although there can be value in that.

      Definitely understand that and yeah we have, I definitely thought the same thing after the excitement wore off.

      I did the math wrong though and one of the misses after the 315 was 345 and I got that to my knees. I definitely think there was some value in seeing what it felt like though, makes me think 350 is awful close.
