09 May Lisa Guggisberg-Offseason Week 1 Bench. First time in Bench Shirt.

I recently competed in the RPS US Open in San Diego, CA where I totaled 903 at 114lbs raw with wraps. I am currently in offseason with future plans of doing a multiply meet sometime this fall at 114lbs.

First time in bench shirt. Holy sweet baby Jesus I thought the squat suit hurt but a bench shirt is 10x worse. Using Inzer SDP. Bench master Paul Key was awesome and came out to help. Worked up to 205#. Feeling some pop and tension. Shirt a little big but we'll get it dialed in. Right now it's just learning how the shirt is gonna feel and figuring out where we can tighten it eventually. ———————————- #inzer #1020L #1020Life #tentwentylife #PRS #girlswhopowerlift #114weightclass #TeamPRS #PowerRackStrength #captainjacked #gearwhore #multiply

Extremely thankful Paul Key was able to come out and help. I probably wouldn’t have had a clue where to start.  Shirt is just a tad big but no alterations at this point until we figure out where we need to really jack it down to get the most out of it for me.   I got some pop on the 205 after Paul got my groove dialed in and adjuster the shirt but still a work in progress.

Things I took away from this session:

• Over exaggerate everything I do raw. So over exaggerate the tuck and flair.
• I need to work on flair. I’m not flairing until I’m almost back in the rack.
• I have a weak inner tricep.
• Work on controlling the bar at the top and take my time and settle.
• I will have to start hammering my lats more in accessory work.
• Bench shirts hurt.
