Hot damn, 377 FGB great work Kit!

Charles said...

Yeah, my friend got third in that FGB. I asked who won, and he said, just some guy. I didn't know that that guy was from our box.

Aimee Lyons said...

Huge PR's in the nooner too!

Kudos to the entire noon class, PR's all around in the nooner!

Kimberly has gone from a 90# Deadlift to a #205 to a #245 in the matter of weeks! Congrats!

Amazing numbers folks. You all hit major pr's and had good form doing it. Sheng-Ching for only being here a few weeks and hitting 213, that must feel good! Our veterans Liz and Miranda also hit solid PRs. Lindsey, I think you surprised yourself too. Peterson, Borden, and Conn, big numbers! Nice job everyone.

WTG on the 400 Jim. I tried it but couldn't get my hips open. NEXT TIME!

Jim Curran said...

Thanks for the kudos on 4 bills, great job to all and those who set PR's. Joe A hauling up a quarter ton....strong Joe!
