Re: 14.3 tips and strageties. Jump or step?
You typed that as I was responding - I agree 100%. We have the same exact 1rm and every rep at 275 felt like my 1rm today. I ended up getting back to the box for 4 jumps after the 275.

Re: Pretty glad I didn't sign up for the Open
Accomplishments are all relative. I could barely snatch 135 prior to 13.1, and I ended up with 13 reps at 135. That score isn't very "good" by comparison to others but it was an accomplishment for...
