Surprised Myself!

I wasn't so sure about what tonight's WOD would be when I saw it posted but it turned out better than I thought.  I did feel a little bad for the coach as he was trying to watch everybody and I guess tonight would have been a good night to have 2 coaches on the floor but then you never know who all is going to show up.  I have to give him credit he did pretty good. 

Tonight was Back Squat, Shoulder Press and Dead Lift.  I surprised myself. 

I maxed out at 105lbs. with the Back Squat.  Those squats get the best of me. Definitely learned you can't lean forward when doing them and so glad the coach was spotting to ensure we didn't get hurt. 

I maxed out at 70lbs. with the Shoulder Press.  Those really pushed the limits on my arms.  Have to admit it was nice not to have to think about using my hips to lift - LOL! 

I maxed out 205lbs. with the Dead Lift.  I'm still in shock I lifted that much.  But that last one got me as I feel it in my shoulders. 

At least I have a starting point to go from now for the next time we do these.  I'm still in shock.  I've done these lifts before but don't know what I lifted.  Now, it's time to start keeping track.
