Ok. I told this story on http://www.crossfitclarksville.com/ and I'm telling it here, so everyone can have a good laugh at old John's expense. So, I grab the 45# barbell and slap on four (4) steel 100# weights. Not thinking, I thought I was going to hit 400#, 25# less than my last max. I hit it, my head about explodes, but I nail it and drop it. I think to myself: "Wow, that was freak'n heavy. I guess the squats wore me out or all the extra endurance stuff has weakened my DLs." So, I slap on two 10# and two 5# weights to go for 430#, but in reality it's 475#. I try to hit it but the barbell isn't budging and my head almost explodes. I think: "Damn, that kind of hurt." So, I drop the two 5# weights to go for 420#, but in reality its 465#. I try to hit it, but nothing. I'm waisted and my pride is crushed a little. So, I put the weights away, collect my stuff, and off to the pool I go disappointed in myself. I swim 30 lengths (750 yards), shower, and then begin my drive home. While doing so, I think back to my DLs and how disappointed I was. All of a sudden, it hits me like a bolt of lightning. I realize I actually hit 445# on my first attempt, not 400#. Yahoo! Pride restored, except for my failure to get a PR on my SPs. Hopefully, the swimming and other work will fix that. Funny, huh? :-)
