  1. Congrats! I know you've been struggling with your bench for a while, so this is a huge milestone. How hard did it feel?

    1. The double was easier than expected; I was expecting grinders on both first and second. The first popped off my chest without too much of a hitch, and the second was more exhausting mentally than physically. If I'm very tired under the bar I can't feel too much of my legs because of my arch and leg drive, and it was especially evident then.
