SHEIKO #26/SKILLS EVALUATION


Smoked everything. Danny said, "You don't know math. That is not 95%. Bring a calculator next time." I feel very good about my test day coming up.

  I kept screwing up the warm-up sets for some reason.

Squat 225x3 (50), 260x3 (60), 305x2 (70), 350x2 (80), 390x1 (90), 415x1 (95)

Danny finally convinced me I need to lower myself slower, especially with heavy weight. I lost my arch a bit in my back, but I clearly have the strength for much more than 415. (It was easy regardless.)

  Was supposed to do 305x2x2.

Bench 145x3 (50), 170x3 (60), 200x2x2 (70),  230x2 (80), 255x1 (90), 270x1 

(95)

Deadlift 270x3 (50), 325x2 (60), 380x2 (70), 435x2 (80), 485x1 (90), 515x1 (95)

Was supposed to do 380x2x2.


It's always a little nerve-wracking going over 90% on Sheiko because you simply don't do it until the skills eval or test day. But, at least until now, its extremely gratifying how easy it is once you get there.

Nice job, good to know one of us is getting stronger. The one thing I would probably do if I were doing Sheiko is go to 90% sometimes, even though it might be stupid.
