Doing Back Squats with Griff. He really motivated me to push myself. That was the day I hit 295.  Of course the WOD was torture afterwards but what a motivator!

Ease into it. It takes a few weeks to get your body to feel comfortable with the movements. Don’t push yourself too hard, wait until your body is ready then you will see that you are stronger than you expected. The results will be automatic.
