Another pb - overhead sq!

Jerry Hill · 01-18-2006, 07:21 AM

This is actually 2 pb's a 225 pp then a 225 ohs. Kept sinking that baby in the hole, had more in me 'today' but had been chasing this for a while and was quite happy.

Wanted to share,
Jerry

Wow, strong lifts. I wish my OHS position were like that with 1/3 the weight.

Not to be a "jerk", but is that a true push-press? You seem to bend your knees to catch it, as in a shallow jerk or missed push-press. Or I might be misunderstanding some form issues again.

Great work!

Very impressive work Jerry, I wish I had the starch to just hold 225 overhead!

Thanks! The grandparents and assorted family and friends love it. The grandparents clamor for more if it's been a few days (our first child, their first grandchild, so understandable!).

Pretty big lifestyle change but lots of fun and very rewarding for us.

Best,
Rene'
