Crossfit log for Thursday, April 25th

I missed Crossfit this morning to go to physio.

I knew they were doing 1 rep max dead lift. So I brought my lifting shoes and belt and I bought some chalk and went to the Y with the goal of hitting a new PR in the dead lift.

Did 95#, 135#, 185# and 225# to warm up.

Then I put on my belt and got out the chalk and did 245# and 255#, I skipped my current PR (265#) and went for 275# (hummed and hawed over whether I should try 260# first, but figured go big or go home), 275# went up with out a problem.

285#? Might as well. Sure enough. Boom! Tried 295# which would've been huge, but alas, it was too heavy. I should've tried 290#, but hey, 20# PR!

Colour me happy!
