I realized the importance of focusing mental energy on keeping the core tight while doing this movement, it really helps keep that lumbar curve for those heavier weights. Might have been able to go 5-10 pounds more, but i felt like i reached a good level while getting a PR.
I really thought I could get the 225, thus I kept at it. However, on my last attempt at 225 my form really eroded... bar resting on more on my collar bone (ouch) than upper shoulders, wrists stretched to their limits.
That said, first time doing this lift for 1RM, so 215 is a PR.

225 is a PR, but still frustrated that I wasn't even close on 235.

245 is a PR by 35lbs. I got the last set thanks to a nice spot by Derek.

Little frustrating but still very happy to get a PR.
185-205-225-245-245-250-255(PR). Started to look pretty weak on the last two, but still a pr, so no complaints!
