32kg BU C&P:
1 rep on the right, 3 nice cleans on the left, but kept encountering a sticking point just above my head. Still, even the clean was a nice PR, and I couldn't be happier with the one rep on the right. Wasn't so long ago at all that 24kg for a single on both sides was not a foregone conclusion.

32kg C&P is getting scaring strong .. very impressive! Your grip work is going through the roof!

Thanks for the encouraging words. Grip work is one of the most "fun" things I do on some days, as I practice a lot of variety and get to hit lots of PRs. I have been thinking though that I need to narrow my focus for a bit and work only on plate curls, BUP and 2HP since those are the money lifts for me at the moment. I am also strongly considering finding a piece of chain to add to the 32kg presses. I need a way to load that move a little bit without dropping $$$ on a new KB. I just picked up a new shotgun, so the Bulldog is a no go for quite some time.

Remind not to break into your house (not that I do that sort of thing anyway). I think I'd take my chances with the shotgun rather than let you get a grip on my throat!!

Awesome!!
