Hey Jesse, that’s not an improvement, just piss poor performance at worlds.
I opened with 104, and was going to go 135, then 155. I obviously made my opener and then with 135 my left wrist collapsed. Something that NEVER happened to me before in ANY lift. You can imagine my surprise. Of course I retook 135 and got it fairly easily, but received one red light too many. After reviewing the video I’m not sure what those reds were for, but that’s just the way competition goes sometimes.
So since I thought I was strong enough then for 155, and now, too, and didn’t get it then nor now, you can see that I didn’t make any improvements in that lift. But then again, it’s one of those lifts that’s more technique- than strength-dependent, not to mention rather hard to judge, so I’m not too concerned.
