this is sick
You're looking great too, congrats on the leanness, you have really worked with discipline to get there, its been an impressive ride watching you go from 270 (ish??) to where you are today and maintain so much of that strength. the back is what pops out to me the most, always awesome when you can see the wings popping out from a FRONT shot.
AWESOME

Well gang, probably no surprise to most of you, but the wife pulled it off! A true ATWR in the Circus DB Press, for Masters Lightweight Women (40+ age, under 73kg/160lb bodyweight). They weighed the dbs in front of the crowd on a calibrated scale on the main arena stage as she called each attempt.
130lbs in a plate-loaded db!
She also set the shot-filled Slater DB record to 118lbs. They let her attempt to break both records, so with up to 3 attempts each she was able to leverage that to make more smaller jumps back and forth. She opened up
with 114 on the Beast Metals plate-loaded db, then 118 on the Slater (which is harder due to the shifting shot or sand you add to load it). She then did 125 for a new WR on the plate-loaded style before attempting 124 on the Slater, which was a miss. That failed attempt jacked her shoulder up decently, but with the crowd waiting anxiously & one attempt still left on the Beast Metal, it was time to cook! Nobody wants the show to end on a miss, plus we didn’t fly all that way not to try. So she called for 130, which is a weight she has never done on the plate-loaded style actually (making it a PR as well as a WR). This went up smoothly & the crowd went wild!
It was a great afternoon and people at the festival really enjoyed the spectacle - definitely a blast & something she will always be proud of.
