Tuesday's Workout

Hey Friends,

So my normal lifting days are Tues/Fri with my heavy shirt days on Tuesday. I have a competition coming up and I did a few warm up sets then put my opening shirt on. I took 255lbs down to a 3 board and pressed it up with no problem! My lifts for the meet should be about 270-275 for my first lift, 300-305 for my 2nd lift and then all out on my 3rd lift. I had a shirt that I haven't put on in a LONG time, so I put it on. It was pretty tight. Terry put 340lbs on and I gave it a shot. He had to guide it down. I was quite shaky at the top bc I was not used to holding that much weight. The shirt was so tight it didnt touch my chest. I pressed it back up on my own though. I waited a few minutes and tried again. I took the weight down slowly and got it to touch my chest and he gave me the press command and I pressed it. Then he made me hold it at the top for 3-5 seconds because I tend to rack it before the rack command and surprisingly, I DID IT! Woohoo!! Good workout!!

It Worked

Yes! I'm so excited!! My vote for me widget finally posted to a page. I couldn't get it to post to Facebook or Twitter, but it works on the blog! Woohoo! I will keep you all updated on my workouts now via my blog!!

First Time

Hey Everyone! This is my first attempt at posting a blog. Hopefully, it will work and I can write more! I'm an avid Facebook user, but have yet to figure out Twitter or Blogging! As many of you know, I have entered a contest through Prilosec for my bench press competitions in order to win a sponsorship. I have made it my mission to let as many people as possible know about it so they may go to my profile page and vote for me! The voting lasts through July 15th. I'm doing pretty well. I'm 3rd in the sports category right now and I think about 6th overall if my calculations are correct. I'm a nerd and I made a spreadsheet to keep track of the order of the top profiles. Anyhow, here is the link to vote for me:
You may vote 1x per day per email address. So please help me out. I truly appreciate it! Thanks!!!
