Elliot smoking his 2nd attempt squat of 192.5kg/424lbs this past Saturday at the USA Powerlifting California State Championships in Valencia. Elliot competed in the STACKED 181lb junior raw division, and had the best lifts in both the squat and the bench press (135kg/297lbs for a 2lb lifetime PR and BLOWING the competition out of the water,) and ended up placing third overall after the deadlift (210kg/462lbs.) Fantastic work Elliot!

This was a good one! I’m not sure how well I’ll be walking around the rest of the day though. I guess I’ll be happy for once that I’m in class for the most part.

Aaron you smoked that WOD! I did 20:20 and had at least 3+ mins. of wait for the rowers. I wasn’t complaining though, little extra rest time 🙂
February 13th, 2012 at 7:23 pm
You did outstanding this morning. I’m not sure I had you. The young guys ended up beating us both at 4 :). Sucks to be old eh?

Felt awesome. Rest 5 min then Hoffner set (800m run, 20 thrusters 75#; 500m row, 20 75# power cleans) No idea what the time was, collapsed and concentrated on breathing.
