Kicked ass on these and making big jumps on them since my max was 340 last time I tried it. Gonna keep riding with it since it seems to be on a roll!

Put on a bit of a show here too with a few members asking about this exercise with the thicker than normal bar and watching my lifting. One was a former Olympic style lifter back when they had the Press as well as the Clean & Jerk and Snatch like they do now. We talked about when he used to read and collect STRENGTH & HEALTH magazine. Pre MUSCLE & FITNESS or FLEX. I know about that from my reading and web But it was neat to talk to someone who actually had it in print.

A couple other trainers were working the Olympic lifts for technique so there was some great energy there then. )
